Time is way “past due” to get the devil out of OUR White House

Won't happen as long as the devil is welcome in our own homes.

It’s starting to look like a coordinated attack, at least for the WRong Paulers.

Well, the coordinated attacks have been going on since before I was a member of Swiftvets.. and long before I was a member here.. but it seems it is getting hard core recently :p
While I enjoy the zots of infiltrators, it is sad to see the number of them now..

I guess it is good to purge them, but I never realized how many are here.. :(

They could have saved a lot of effort but doing a virtual flyby.

I was in VP-40 at the time and had one detached TAD to Agana, Guam in late ‘71 for several weeks. GUAM IS GOOD, especially during wintertime in Okinawa!

>>More panic in the oil markets, a strong military response, and non stop rhetoric would help Obama in the next election.

$5-$6/gal gasoline would not help Obama in the next election.

Thank you, Mariner, for making this request, and thank you to Jim Robinson for removing Theophilus.

Mariner, we obviously disagree on some other issues, but your defense of our American military deserves to be commended.

I am very much aware that there are colonels and generals who are left-of-center in their politics. A retired three-star general just decided not to run for the Democratic nomination for US Senate down in Texas. A four-star general ran in and lost the Democratic presidential race a few years ago. That doesn't mean they don't love their country; it just means they are wrong about some things.

The Founding Fathers weren't exactly in agreement on everything, either. I wouldn't want Thomas Jefferson or Benjamin Franklin in my church or my congressional district, but I can respect their work without agreeing with them on everything they did.

But to call American soldiers “drugged up criminal perverts who make sex toys out of livestock” is both factually wrong and grossly offensive. The military has its problems, but that accusation simply is not true.
