Are you calling the President an idiot?

I'm not clear on your post. You say the guards on the Cole had no bullets, is there a link to corroborate this information somewhere?

Just a troll trying to get a rise out of us. Kind of a disappointing one, at that.

I do not have a link...but I vividly remember that the Cole soldier on guard with the 50 cal...stated that he could not fire on the attackers because he was not allowed to load his weapon..... In fact the terrorists were actually smiling and waving at him....

Someone started talking about troops being sent to this tsunami area unarmed, which was a stupid thing because there are radical muslims in that country. I brought up the specter of the U.S.S. Cole, not to blame Bush for it, but rather, to talk about how the gunners in that ship didn't have bullets in their guns to defend their ship. That was under clinton, but some slow witted posters here seem to think I am blaming Bush for that.

I'm blaming Bush for other things, free for all immigration and other things, but not the Cole incident.

For questioning Bush's leadership qualities, some of these posters want to run me off. Feels like I'm in the democRAT party.

I'd rather question then follow blindly, which seems opposite of what some of these posters would rather do.
