I bet I know the punchline.

Hint: anybody notice how many of those pics are of servicemen and/or have a flag in the background?

A great leader, and our troops that unfortunately died to free millions of ungrateful Iraqis and strengthen our county. At the same time, it makes me think of all the mis-informed and other America haters that would destroy our country just to get GW out of office.

How is choosing not to re-elect the president "destroying" the country? You have a funny idea of how democracy works.

funny when i see the faces of the fallen i see people who may have seen the hypocrisy of the war first hand, and who still valiantly carried out their duties regardless of this. I see people who knowingly sacrificed for our great nation, people who regardless of their political views gave their lives for us, and those iraqis who see it. WHat i allso see is that they fought for those of us who HAVE NEVER SEEN COMBAT, those of us WHO BUY INTO PROPAGANDA THEY ARE FED, those of us who THINK they are informed, but realy have NO ****ING CLUE what war is like, or why we are waging it.

Note i mean YOU.

As Dr3n said before, it's not just about Bush. Many people, even in this country, want to see the US destroyed or just contorted to their view of what it should be.

I've seen that pic before... My friends hat makes up the lower part of Bush's nostril. He died last year, 2 weeks after his team extracted Uday and Qusay from their hideout... he made front page of the LA times. Poor guy died at the age of 18, I'm saddened that he lost his life, but even more so for a bs war.

Ohh noes!!1!1!!11!!1t3h L1b3ral H4xorZ w1ll destroy teh c0unTri!!1!!!11!!

or why we are waging it.



So why "are" we waging it...?






"We will always remember. We will always be proud. We will always be prepared, so we may always be free" - Ronald Reagan

'Cause of that man and his father. Besides "possible" personal vandetta, you may also argue REALLY POOR "intelligence."

i saw his pic online, i am sorry for your loss, and his families loss. Regardless of the worthynuess of this war, he died an honorable man, fighting for this country (how ever misguided). He upheald his duties and evidently did a helluva job in doing so.

You should stand proud for knowing such a class act.

I know i would

Besides "possible" personal vandetta

Ohhh.....the vendetta theory.


You know the Prez is a easy target for everyones dislike for the war......But it takes more than just the Prez to declare war.

Why don't I see more....."Man, I don't like the whole US goverment" threads or posts?

Well, it's for the same reason that most people don't understand the real reason we are in Iraq. The Muslim extremists' world is out of shape and we are smacking those *****es up right where it hurts... in the middle of their geographic safehouse.
We won't say it because it really IS a war on a specific religion, besides the fact we also need to guarantee we will have a foothold to secure future oil supplies.

Many people hate the president because he is the most visible one responsible for the actions of the U.S., though many of them simply hate our country and its population as a whole. Much in the same way, most of them won't admit they hate our country and want to see our flag burn, because they woundn't be able to use all of the ignorant stooges like Dr3 to accomlish their means.

Truly, who's idea was it to declare war in the first place? I know it takes an act of Congress, but that hasn't happened since WWII. It's just my humble opinion that this war wasn't justified. Sadly, those men and women died proudly for their country but... for exactly what cause? May they all rest in peace.

I thought we were there to disarm Iraq of WMD. I have not heard nor seen one. They were just capable of it... so are many other nations. There are Muslim extremists throughout the world. What did Iraq or Saddam have to do with all this? This doesn't mean I support the extremists, Iraq, or Saddam... just that the government's actions are questionable. The whole world knows it.

among many other things, i see a hypocrite who donned the veil of morality, an incompetent world leader, and a man unfit to lead this nation....

i pray to the same God he does, but i will pray that GW does not get re-elected.

How do you define "want to see the US destroyed"?

That's exactly what I'm talking about... it's a ruse...an excuse for doing what they felt needed to be done. Do you think Bush invaded Iraq and pissed off the world for the hell of it?

As far as what Iraq or Saddam has to do with it, do you think it's the Jehova's Witnesses blowing **** up and cutting off heads? Cummon... don't buy the B.S.

How do you define "want to see the US destroyed"?

To destroy a person doesn't mean one thing... you can break one's spirit.... same goes for this country.... you can destroy it without setting off a bomb- just look at the dissent within this nation. As far as specific means for doing it, you can take a quess.

What did you think I meant... just curious.

very valid point, but it wasnt the goverment as a whole who was pushing down SHODDY ASS INTELLIGENCE, the same shody intelligence (curve ball anyone?) that even those who were collecting it had objections to, it wasnt the entire goverment who ingnored hte professionals collecting that information and simply sanitized those voices from those all important reports that made their rounds. It was the entire goverment that WAS duped by the current PRESIDENTS ADMINISTRATION to go to war.

I will give you that much.

Nope but i think these things had a lot to deal with it

"The United States remains a prisoner of its energy dilemma. Iraq remains a de-stabilizing influence to ... the flow of oil to international markets from the Middle East. Saddam Hussein has also demonstrated a willingness to threaten to use the oil weapon and to use his own export program to manipulate oil markets. Therefore the US should conduct an immediate policy review toward Iraq including military, energy, economic and political/ diplomatic assessments."

I figured you'd reply with something feeble like this...

Yeah, I figured you wouldn't answer my question either. Feeble? Keen choice of words.

I see the faces of 3 of 5 individuals I personally knew that was KIA in OEF or OIF...

Sgt. Baddick

Pvt. Gilbert

Sgt. Conneway


Seems someone has edited the hue and colors of the pictures to fit the Bush portrait layout nicely. The artist could have easily done the same with a photo of wildflowers, the Rocky Mountains, Osama Bin Laden, the Twin Towers, the POW/MIA flag or Martha Stewart.

Basically it's absolutely pointless...

werd! awesome post brother!!!!

Do you feel safer now after 9/11 then you did before?

I "feeeel" as safe as I did two, four, ten years ago. I have no idea what threats are real or what my gov't is doing to protect me/us. But having been in the military, I know there are activities happening right now that you will learn about 40 years from on the History Channel.
I do know that W is taking more action than Klinton did in terms of dealing with terrorists.
Does this make me safer?
Doubt it.
I don't worry about dirty bombs or other WMDs going off in the States. I got bigger, more personal worries to worry about.

Do you feel like the economy is doing better then before bush?

One can quote GNP,GDP, unemployment figures to prove/disprove the economy is doing better.
I like to look at the number of orders my company does per month. I work for a national firm that supports the rail road industry. Yea, it's low tech, but I'm employeed.
Anyway, the Spring before the election, our orders started to dive...so much so, we laid off 15% of our workforce. Things flattened out a few month's later & have stayed flat up to four months ago.
Our orders have almost doubled in the last four months & are projected to keep on increasing for the next year.

"So what!", you say.
Well, the Class I railroads, (UPRR,BNSF) have increased big time the number of tons hauled. When a RR hauls more, they tear up their locomotive's motors more, which is what we rebuild. We are considered by some as a "leading indicator".
Check out the headlines here: http://www.progressiverailroading.com/

Do you feel like the world is a better place now that bush has been in office?

No, the world is just as crappy as it's alway's been. Do you really believe that the world was better 6 years ago?
When was the world "better" than it is now?

Paul

Piss poor President aside,

Does anyone see brave men and women in that picture? :confused:

Or are you all too busy bashing Bush to see the bigger picture and understand each story? I know a few of those individuals are being reviewed for major awards of valor and a couple for lifesaving efforts.

This is more than Kerry can claim in regard to Vietnam... :rolleyes:
