Attitude has nothing to do with it. Life sucks.

Life sucks? You don't know what sucks! You don't have the guts, gumption or strength of a 7 year old.

You wanna see someone that understood life? Someone with the guts to take on real problems. The worst of problems. Someone that was on this Earth for a very short time but was much wiser than you are.

Go here. And read about my friend Abi Roland. Read about someone that went through the worst of the worst. Read the Journal History You don't have problem! Your life does not suck! Your head does!

If Abi taught me one thing it's NEVER GIVE UP! NEVER GIVE UP! She fought for ever second of her life. Down to the last moment. She was so brave. Tough! She never complained! She went through hell to get to heaven.

Complain and whine and moan all you want. Stew in your own self-inflicted defeat. But please keep it to yourself. I have no compassion for those that won't fight. I have no desire to hear the words of those that give up when there is a fight to be fought. I've seen bravery and I've seen heroics. I see none of that in you.

Keep your self-pity to yourself.

Why are all those people applauding this military guy -- they are ALL against the war?

They're only against the war because they despise the current CIC and his success. If a Rat were now President and conducting the WOT in exactly the same manner Bush is now conducting it - a big IF, to be sure - all these idiots would be cheering him on enthusiastically and praising his freeing the oppressed peoples of Iraq and Afghanistan.

But they'd never admit it. That would require sanity.

He just stole it from W's 2000 speech, like he stole most of the rest.

I realize they "stole" a lot from the 2000 campaign, but kerry was insinuating Bush is not honorable and hasn't been while President.

I'm still angry.

Dems always project. When I was watching W's speech today I was thinking, you can disagree with this guy politically, but there's NO WAY you can question his honor. But they do, every single minute of the day.

He offended me tonight and I doubt I'm the only one.

He certainly offended, angered & flat pi$$ed me off with that spewing, vile, lying speech!

I'm still mad as hell today. How dare that sleazy creep insult President Bush! Insinuating Bush hasn't been honorable, or truthful. Mad as hell I am.

Orthodox Presbyterian and I are on very good terms, and like and respect one another, even though we disagree more than we agree.

Disagree? Us?? (grin)

Only because we're on opposite philosophical ends of this particular forum (Torie the neo-conservative pragmatist, myself the Biblical-libertarian reactionary).

Throw us in together with a gaggle of dyed-in-the-wool Marxists (on second thought... please don't), and I expect I'd vote with Torie about 60-65% of the time.

Not more; but probably not less. Most grudgingly, no doubt... just as Ron Paul (whose former chief of staff, Calvinist Logician John W. Robbins, is one of my personal heroes), votes with the GOP leadership about 60-65% of the time.

I'm sure he doesn't always like it, and wishes for something better... but what's the alternative? Voting with the Marxists? No thanks...

Best, OP


My only curiosity, in regard to Torie's post in question, is how did the terms Calvinist and John Edwards come to appear together in the same sentence?

If Torie could explain that to me, I'd be in his debt.

Quote of the day:

"The wrath of God burns against them, their damnation does not slumber; the pit is prepared, the fire is made ready, the furnace is now hot, ready to receive them; the flames do now rage and glow."

The Lord God can help in any situation - after you get straightened out about something real important: Who the Boss is.

Jonathan Edwards and John Kerry both had this habit of pointing fingers at folks, be it physical or metaphysical, in a haughty know-it-all way. I hope that helps.
