"Okay, let's look at the facts:"

Yes, let's do.

Bush continues to push for wide-open borders.

Tell that to the Saudi's who are now standing in 3+ hour lines at our Arabian embassies (in 120 degree heat) to wait on their background screening before they get Visas.

Bush has advocated amnesty for Illegal Aliens.

Not true. Bush has advocated some policies for aliens who came into the U.S. legally, but you can't show a Source/Link of where he has personally proposed blanket amnesty for Illegal aliens.

Bush has wimped out regarding the ICC.

Nonsense. Bush stood up to the EU and made them scream about him being a "unilateralist" because he not only wouldn't sign the ICC charter, but also campaigned to have Americans exempted from the ICC even when they are physically located inside countries that HAVE signed the ICC charter. You are simply spouting rubbish when you claim that Bush has done anything improper regarding the ICC. Heck, Bush has threatened to have U.S. military aid cut off to multiple nations who don't explicitly exempt the U.S. from ICC harassment.

Bush has proposed his own Kyoto Protocol.

No, Bush smashed U.S. involvement with the Kyoto Protocol and proposed an environmental plan that caters to U.S. needs, not globalist PC whims.

Bush signed the Patriot Act.

Typical. You probably think that the Patriot Act has something to do with "globalism" rather than protecting our own Nationalism. Do you even KNOW what "globalism" means child?

Bush continues to promote "Free Trade" to the detriment of America's economy.

Tell that to the Russians, Japanese, and European steel producers, all of whom felt the wrath of Bush's trade tariffs. Do you even know what "globalism" and "free trade" mean? Are you so uneducated that you don't even realize that Bush HAS already implemented steel tariffs (hardly something that an educated person would label as either "globalism" or "free trade"). Typical.

Bush signed the CFR bill.

Again, what does National U.S. Campaign Finance Reform have to do with "globalism"? You behave as though you don't even know what globalism means? Have you finished High School yet?

Bush has advocated grants to foreign nations, courtesy of the U.S. taxpayer.

Ooooohhh, U.S. grants that make foreign nations dependent upon U.S. sentiment rather than global largesse. Oh yeah, there's some globalism for you. < /SARCASM >

Bush has said good things about the European Union.

Oh no, not WORDS! Heavens, somebody stop all of that globalism!

NATO planes are now allowed to fly over American skies.

The U.S. founded NATO, is a part of NATO, and has NEVER denied NATO planes overflight permission.

Bush is giving addresses in Spanish.

Yeah. NEWSFLASH: 16% of Americans speak Spanish (that's more people than in any other racial group, btw). What do you want, for Bush to ignore the single largest subset of legal U.S. citizens?

Put everything together. Common sense tells you that he's a globalist. He's not for America-First.

Put everything together and any rational person can see that you've drawn conclusions from a dearth of facts and a preponderence of racism.

Killing the UN's International Ban on Small Arms Trafficking Treaty can NOT be viewed as "globalism" by any educated person. Bush did that.

Pulling the U.S. out of the CCCP-U.S. ABM treaty can NOT be viewed as globalism.

Killing U.S. involvement in the Kyoto Accords and ICC can NOT be viewed as globalism.

Wake up, kid. You've been spouting nonsense and now you've been called to the carpet with facts.

Get back to me after you've completed a useful education.

how to take the Senator's words.

and that is exactly WHY he said what he said, more than likely... idiots all over the middle east and the terrorist planners hidden amongst us all wonder if this can be deciphered into meaningful intel...

and it really can't. Which is the point of such statements, several of a conflicting nature by LOTS of different "authoritative" and "integrous" people in our government. One day rummy makes it sound like we are good to go... and the next Bush says "whaddyamean?" Biden warns, "we must attack now." Two days later he says it was a hypothetical.... and on and on it goes.

put simply, when we hit whoever it is that we are going to clobber be it one or many, they will have no warning, no clue and no time to prepare... "if the owner of the house had known what hour the theif would come... he would not have suffered his household to be broken into..."

Action is imminent! er, uh... unless for some reason today, it may not be... THAT is the message. Pass it on.

I call again for all Christians everywhere to pray that Israel will not under any conditions turn the holy city of Bethlehem, and holy Church of the Nativity, over to Muslim Islamist barbarians. This has been liberated and ought to belong to the people of Jesus, that is the Jews, from now on for ever until Messiah come.

If Israel does turn this city over, it will pay a dreadful price, just as it already has and will for having let the Islamotrash take over and desecrate the Nativity earlier this year. And it will have to keep on doing so until it is willing to do the will of God and keep this territory.

The Full Moon of September is the feast of Sukkot in Israel, and a war or bloodshed then would be a bad omen for Judaism.

I predict it for Rosh Hashanah, the New Moon of September, and anniversary of the birth of Jesus Christ, who was born just as the Hallel chant began welcoming in the new Year.

Shanah=Meshiyakh=358

Remember how Jesus proclaimed the acceptable "YEAR" of the Lord, for it was a capital crime to proclaim Mashiyakh.

Wrong.

I stand corrected, presuming the level of connection one has developed. Hitler, with no connection twith God whatsoever, could not have been prevented from conducting his evil acts. For those who have a connection with God, they can be influenced, no doubt. In this light, my statement was incorrect. Thank you for pointing this out.

I am not the one who introduced GOD into the debate. I don't want a theological discussion. I don't smoke bong but I have to assume that you are one of those who want reparations. See I can be just as insulting as you.

If all you keyed on from my comment was a percieved insult, then you are much shallower than I gave you credit.

You may not have introduced God into the conversation, but you did make some implications regarding God that challenged the belief system of most people here. As I said before (and that statement stands), I'm not planning on getting into a theological discussion with you; but you might want to rethink the statement you made and move on.

Jim Robinson should require all freepers to take a reading comprehension course before joining this forum. All I did was raise the question that if god is on our side, why did he allow 911 to happen. You jump on board and suggest that I am using pot. You were way out of line and based on what I know of you, carry a large chip on your shoulder. You like to be offended, you hope to be offended you try to be offended and then you play the victim. No reparations for you.

I refuse to believe that you can be this obtuse.

I did not suggest that you use pot. If you can't recognize sarcasm, the I suggest you give some thought about what you respond to. As for me, you obviously don't know me, you only know what you choose to listen to.

As for the remainder of your asinine commentary, please go play with someone who gives a damn and let the remainder of the adults talk in peace.

study the enemy. study, study, study. devise targets, many of them, make sure they're the ones you want. study satellite photos. study them more. it takes time. attacks like this are an orchestra. and when it plays, it shall be deafening. rest assured your defense analysts are building some comp time right now. to plan an overthrow calls for much more strategery than a simple flogging like desert storm. why? because it must succeed. and nothing short of that is failure. thus we wait. (until december)

Agreed. The only place where you and I disagree on this is the timeframe. I think it's much sooner. I think the planning for this has gone on for much longer than people realize, and that assets have been in motion for far longer than anyone realizes.

Amen! Bush/et al are playing this one like a fine violin!! They're dripping disinformation like Chinese water torture and I'm loving every ounce of it!

With every leak the media is screaming and Saddam is losing bladder control. As they say in TX, "It just don't get much better than that!"

I'm not sure a long drawn out discourse and vote from the Congress is legally required. Let's say Bush has first-hand intelligence that Saddam will have a nuke hitched up to a Scud aimed at Israel in the very near future. It would seem that all he has to do is inform the congressional leadership of the situation, make a national address to tell the citizens of the clear and present danger of Saddam to the world, call our key allies to let them know we are going in order to protect their interests, and then pull the rip cord. Pretty simple!

IMHO, since the books were never closed on Desert Storm and Saddam has been in violation of the UN sanctions for several years, it would seem that Bush can really just pick up where pappy left off using the previous congressional declaration.

Can someone dispute this position from a constitutional or legal standpoint?

Care to put a date with that?
