    i think my cable is broken...

    ...my tv signal must be crossing over into my internet signal, because bill sounds just like that talking head on CNN.

    I like to come here to relax and just read the posts to get away from this mindless, vitriolic babble that you f*kn progressives spout off on a daily basis. Dammit! You guys could even ruin a good porn flick.

    Hercalid - some avatar suggestions:

    You are from California that pretty much says it all, I too served during Vietnam and I totally disagree with you, Jane Fonda, and John Kerry who I consider a self serving traitor. The country voted for Bush and he is president, get over it, New York and California just dont get it, the rest of the country does.

    In context refresher

    "I thought if this country sinks any lower it might be time to emigrate. My friends abroad extended open arms should I make that decision. However, we agreed the best way to right the wrongs of the U.S.A. is to remain and do what is right."

    Thousands of similar photos were coming out of Vietnam when we were slaughtering people in other parts of the country or in the next hamlet. It's commonly referred to as propaganda. With "in-bed" reporters, our propaganda has reached newer heights of deception.

    It's only a matter of time before we catch Osama and give him this just punishment........Stand him neck deep in a vat of swines blood and force him to watch MUTANT X until he nods off, his only hope will be if he can spot a VX, that will earn him a cup of coffee and a No-doz pill and another day of suffering.

    Killing or capturing Osama bin Laden works for me. However, he is already at "martyr" status regardless of what we do.

    Bill, once again, I'm trying not to flame you but do you actually believe this stuff your posting? "We thought it would be a good idea to do what right and stay" (paraphrased). Who's we, your friends, would they also be the same friends john kerry had when he served his 2 tours (4 months) in Vietnam? I ask you to please stop living in the 60's, their over, we live in the new century. Here we have an invisible enemy. One who would rather hide and send innocent people to thei deaths as a part of their cause. So what, an English paper printed that, so f'n what? We get the same liberal bias from the Communist News Network, or CBS. Thats one of their freedoms.

    As for a "coat of paint". What about school supplies sent by everyday Americans. More coatings?

    Bah, no need to get worked up as you are probably o far gone. I wil say tis, it's Sunday and I deal with this stuff daily at work. One of the so called benefits of working in the Peoples Collective of Massachusetts.


    Oh, and FWIW, kerry never apologised for his part in the atrosities of the Vietnem conflict, although Hanoi Jane did. I have a sliver of respect for her for doing so.

    U.S. mainstream media is owned and controlled by right-wingers. Fortunately, the rest of the world gets to see what is actually happening, hence most of the world views the Bush regime for the danger it poses to us all.
    Wow, so I guess you watch the news from Al Jazeera or Communist China? Those guys really get to see what's "actually happening", huh? Now I'm not a big fan of the media, but don't you think if it were "owned and controlled" by the right-wing there would be a lot less of the negative images of Iraq? The media does put their own spin on things, but it's usually all about what will get people to tune in, not some political agenda.

    But that's not the case, and any of the criticisms about the Bush administration and the Iraq war is somehow painted as "treason-like" and "get out of the country if you don't like it" - what a childish thing to say.
    Now I don't think ALL criticisms are painted as "treason". But gathering together as many people as possible to publicly display to the world that you don't support your commander-in-chief could be viewed that way. The way I see it, if you don't like the direction your country is headed, you have two choices. Try to do something about it or get the #@$% out. Internal criticism is perfectly acceptable and justified, but outwardly directed expressions of dissent are unneccessary and uncalled for.

    It doesn't take military experience to understand the destructive power of tank artillery, C-130 gun ships, air strikes, etc. We, the United States of America, are using these weapons in densely populated residential areas. Aside from destroying people's homes, shops and property if they managed to flee, many people for various reasons cannot flee and suffer the deadly consequences. When non-combatants are knowingly killed in massive numbers, it's terrorism. We are the world's most deadly terrroists.

    I guess you missed the Pappas Media Corp issue a week or so before the election. Pappas owns most of the mainstream radio and television stations here in Central California. They offered the GOP, not the DNC, $325.000 of free air time to use as they like. Just a little bit biased.

    And that would most likely counter act the free advertising the 3-4 major tv stations gave kerry.


    BTW, I'm just waiting for the kerry bankruptcy news byte. Seeing as he spent 25M of his own money in his bid for POTUS.
