Kerry Insults Troops.

Discussion in 'Politics' started by Arnie, Oct 31, 2006.

  1. Let's call it as it is. What John Kerry said was stupid and inopportune, whatever the context may have been.

    However, let us temper this observation with the fact that almost everything George W. Bush has said and done since assuming the presidency of the United States has been stupid and inopportune.

    The republicans who are having a field day at Kerry's expense surely recognize that Kerry's foolish comment doesn't even rate as a blip on the screen of history, no matter how much they may endeavor to exaggerate its meaning and import. However, history will not be kind to the current president, no matter how you choose to spin it.

  2. Republicans can't run on their record obviously.

    The very best they can do is attack someone who is not even running for re-election?

    Pathetic....

  3. Kerry put a bullet in the head of any future presidential aspirations he may have had. That said, the Bush administration is imploding daily. The Republicans are going down hard(no pun intended:p ) come Tuesday and it would not surprise me at all to see them lose the House and the Senate by wider margins than are now being expected.

    point is that military is paid better by the current
    administration. before they say something against
    the hand that feeds them they will chew on their
    tongue quite a while. but they throw their anger
    immediately at anyone else popping up.

    god. why do the republicans get away with this
    again and again? america, you get it up the ass
    day in day out by a gang of businessmen. don't
    let them prolongue this any further! simply: don't!

    and start using common sense and see where
    they try hard to make you feel that this kerry
    sentence is worth what in fact it isn't. you got it
    in 2000, you repeated in 2004, you get it again
    in 2006? there is slightly more important things
    in the world than Iraq. get real! stand the f..ck
    up! and vote!

  6. The funny thing is they don't seem to worry or be bothered that these same troops have inadequate body armour. When it comes to fund more armour, they veto the bills.

    I'm telling you guys, these corrupt immoral and hypocritical inbreeds are way more dangerous to americas future than a few ragheads in afghanistan.

  7. Talk about BS. Wait until your Afghani friends bring dirty bombs to America.

    And it will be on Democratic watch. (or hide your head in the sand watch)...

    P.S. Remember, the first World Trade Center bombing was on Clinton's watch.

    What did he do? Nothing from what I remember. I guess he was busy with Monica.

    the way the 2000 election turned out is the first
    thing that comes to my mind. real democratic
    attitude would have been to set everything on
    hold until the true election result was obtainable.
    and in case this would have been impossible to
    re-elect. the cost of damage to the credibility to
    the system as such outweighs every dollar spend
    for this process. the powermen decided otherwise.
    victory, even by sacrificing the prey, democracy,
    was the only target.

    the war in iraq. within a very, very short period
    of time the administration identified the people
    who "did" it. all the intelligence failed consequently
    but at the moment when an enemy needed to
    be created, it was perfect in a second. oil-saddam-
    911 is a scandal in itself. and just think of the
    money spent. the same gang of people in congress
    who avoided ratifying kyoto like hell. if they were
    making their money on alternative energies they
    would have doubled all kyoto efforts.

    a difficult thing for me to judge is the 2004
    campaigning. these swift boat people seem to be
    quite convincing. i am not sure if this can really
    be made up by the reps. but this flip flopping
    campaign was an unprecedented provocation.
    i do not dare to really judge kerry. but i certainly
    have not the slightest doubt that mr bush is a
    political desaster. this is the best leading person
    in america? the ultimate leader of a nation of
    hundreds of millions of people?

    the alliance with christian fundamentalists that
    make laws to teach children about dinosaurs
    6000 years ago. george bush bombed his own
    country back a thousand years when these
    things were believed. the rest of the world is
    shocked in shere disbelief by the american way
    of denial.

    this thing of trying to lift your own lawyer into
    some sky of justice. the list goes on and is not
    only a shame but a threat to the whole world.
    george bush is a bigger danger to the world than
    al qaeda could ever have been. there is civil war
    right now in the country he liberated at the
    expense of life and huge sums of money. just
    consider what could have been done with these
    funds.

    i am usually really not a fanatic, certainly not a
    political one, and even more certainly not a left
    wing socialist or communist of any kind. but this
    administration is ... a danger to mankind. corrupt
    and dumb. and i hope that a time will come where
    such people are not protected by US almight but
    will be taken to court and help god will be treated
    fairly. but will be taken there to show that democracy
    is not a free lunch if you win elections and control
    some media.

    you think you live in a democracy? i would not be
    so sure. you think you are the goods against the
    axes of evil? i think that this is top down propaganda,
    nothing more. america has been doing "evil" (what
    a word btw ...) on many circumstances over decades.

    until america does not understand that the life of
    a civilian in bagdad is as worthy as that of the people
    in WTC, until it understands that they have no right
    to set up something like guantanamo, until it
    realises that torture is an absolute no everywhere
    any time ... until then you have no right to point
    at anyone else. no right. and no credibility when
    you in spite of your own doing do so.

  10. You're a mental midget. That much is obvious from your posts. The Mossad and anti-american drug dealing faction of the CIA were who facilitated all the bombings. The average american idiot is always in need of an external "enemy" to rally against. Since the soviet melt down the CIA will create and use islamic fundamentalists till they can build up the Chinese as the next "global threat".
