Live in lebanon or north korea for a year, and then come back and tell us how our country is falling apart. Our country is functioning just as its supposed to. |

This thread almost piqued my interest when I thought .Ryan said "topless" in one of his posts. Alas, however, he said "topples". I promptly lost interest.

Wow.. I guess you were on moveon.org for the whole Muslim riots last year... Seems to me they arent doing that great anymore. Oh, and youre right, he doesn't. No one has to prove opinion.. but when you try to sell it as facts, THATS when you have to prove it. Edited by Linus - 01 March 2006 at 8:38am |

I agree.
Everything is Bush's fault. The Republican party ate my baby. Hail to the Lefties and their quest to make us a welfare society! Nancy Pelosi for President and Ted Kennedy for Sainthood! |

So many people seem to be proud about statements like this... Not knowing politics shouldn't be something you're happy about. Whether you like them or not, politics DO affect you, and everyone else. |

You know, the democrats are never going to win an election if the only platform they stand on is the "I hate Bush" platform. It seems to me that they spend more time trying to pitch to me the evils of G.W. and the badness that he's done in the last few years than offering up to me any plans for resolutions they've got. As for wiretapping, Who authorized the survelliance of Martin Luther King? Its nothing new. Its just something Bush is behind right now, so its a terrible instance of how the country is falling into shambles. But what do I know? I'm just a thoughtless sheep who hates minorities and loves a nice drawn out war that has no reason for it. Drill in Alaska! Nuke the Whales!

Goddamn. Awesome thread, and I've got work tonight til 9.
Definitely some good arguements all around ehre. I can't wait to jump in. The one minor note I can make right now is that the 16 days for Afghansitan thing was logistics. You can't mobilize an army overnight; huge amoutns of tactical and strategic assets had to be moved into place, and undoubtedly there were a lot of quick negotiations with the Northern Alliance. Two weeks to launch a decisive invasion was actually impressively fast. |

Because I live in America, perhaps? Because when my enlistment ran out I came home, perhaps? Because I felt it would be nice to travel beyond the borders of my home county before I began passing judgements on entire cultures, perhaps? Edited by Badsmitty - 01 March 2006 at 3:19pm |

Without a 5000 word Linus-esque diatribe, here it is in a nutshell: .Ryan has nothing to "prove", because Der Bush has done it already: 1. Iraq is in a civil war, making the invasion a bad idea, no matter what your argument. 2. The Vice Prez did in fact sell out his own CIA operative (Valerie Plame) because her husband was in fact, right that there was no uranium Iraq. And if he will sink that low, then every negative thing about him must be right in my book. 3. We haven't caught Bin Laden, which must mean that we attacked the wrong country. 4. And finally, no matter if all of Iraq was seeded with toxic a-bombs in 1990, they aren't there now, making Bush wrong, just as the UN told him. In summary, every thing that Bush said was wrong, every person he fired, suppressed, or bullied was right, and you still agree with him. That must make every mod and right winger on this site the last bastion and 34% of American people that only get Fox News under their rock, and stil support the Flying Monkey. Congratulations on your unwavering support of failure. |

Or hell, the American Civil War was a terrible idea as well, simply by the fact that we had to fight our own people to keep our country intact. Damn our selves!
It's not the Pres. job to get intel on things, it's his job to act on the intel given to him. The intel given to him didnt come from American agencies either. Nope, not just the CIA/NSA. It also came from Interpol. It also came from the Isreali Intelligence Community. It also came from MI-5 (England) It also came from the Japanese Intelligence Community. I am 100% certain that Saddam had WMD's of one form or another in Iraq in the months leading up to us going in, and until PROVEN otherwise, I will believe the intelligence agencies of 5+ countries over you ANY DAY.

I never said I supported Bush... can't see anything in Reb's post that actively supports Bush either. I simply dislike the blanket blame, "I stubbed my toe this morning, damn BUSH!" approach. Same as I dislike the "Democrats would do it better" ideology, as I honestly don't think they can. Hindsight is a wonderful thing. Many of the Dems who are so outspoken once supported many of the examples listed. That's what happens when the S[tuff]HTF... fingers start a pointin... and "they ain't pointin at me". Lots of failures down the line, across the board. Bush is blamed only because he was the sitting Pres. NOT in all cases... but in most. Outcome wouldn't have been any different if someone else had been in the chair. Richard Cheney arguments... no rebuttal from me.  I dislike the guy, and think his butt should be in prison for the Plame fiasco.
As for unwavering support of failure (disclaimer: general statement not targetting anyone here)... I attribute that to anyone who blindly follows either party, Dem or Rep, Right or Left. As well as anyone who simply calls for change... without actually presenting any viable solutions. So far... politicians outspoken against the current Admin have done nothing but call for change. In some cases, rightly so! But I hear more complaining and personal attacks... and hear less "viable solutions". Same with any Admin in office. Nothing but bickering. Never any accomplishments.

The civil war he is refering to is not Us v. Them. The Iraqi Civil War is between the Sunni's and the Shi'a

Once it gets rolling... there'll be no stopping. Baghdad and the surrounding cities will make Belfast (even at it's "peak") look like a Disneyworld ride. |

Granted, Shorty, that the hatred between Sunni's and Shi'a in the areas of Iraq were around long before the war, long before Saddam Huissien, and long before AlQaeda. I am not sure really if saying that AlQaeda is behind the civil war is really correct. |
