Geez...this thread has gotten tedious. ALL I WANTED TO DO WAS POST A FUNNY PICTURE.

Serves me right. :p

This thread's gotten into a debate/war...

Yup. And I'm gonna go feed myself to a polar bear.

Join your Iranian SubSimmer against the Sea Demon!

Nope. I'm gonna keep my cool. Besides that bear owes me a coke.

Well, for one, he knows where he stands on issues. You've got to at least admit he will tell you where he stands. John Kerry couldn't figure out where he was on any issue. You can't elect someone like that. And Al Gore IMO would have continued the "gifts" to China, and probably would have continued on like Clinton pretending that radical Islamists don't pose a national security risk. I do agree with you that we should get chinese made stuff out of our country. But is that entirely up to Bush? I mean he can sign something into law like a tariff on imported goods, or some other protectionist measure. But can he force American manufacturers to set up shop back here in America? The answer is no. I do think the public (free market if you will) is putting alot of recent pressure to do just that. I just hope they listen.

What have the Democrats actually accomplished? The problem with them is that they've tried to railroad things that we as a nation are doing, and they themselves have voted for. That sir, is the problem. We are at war....get over it. The troops are in the field. Don't demoralize them by comparing them to Nazi's...Dick Durbin. Don't demoralize them by saying they are killing Iraqi civilians in cold blood....John Murtha. And then find out that wasn't true. Don't demoralize them by saying the "war is lost"...Harry Reid. You get the drift. Personally for these infractions, they deserve to be gone. If you want to get rid of the whole lot and start fresh, I wouldn't fight you on that at all. :up: But this nutty Democrat party has to go.

As far as a tax cut, I needed it as I get hit by that darn AMT. It helped me and my family financially. And I did add it to my own investment portfolio. I don't know whether or not if you can see how people doing stuff like that actually helps the economy.

Please do another one. It might be a refreshing change. :)

:rotfl:Nice.

You've got your thick mind made up, so I'm done wasting my time on you.

Oh, and if you join, you'll get 5 free cookies, a teddy bear, and a statue that depicts Martha confessing to Mrs. Garret that the poem she "composed" for advanced writing class was actually a plagiarized work from Emily Dickinson.

I could say the same "thick mind" comment back in your direction. But I don't wish to insult you in reverse. But just look at the statements made from these people. It's not made up.....it's what they said. And they have nothing on record to show that they are a worthy congress. I'm willing to listen to other points of view. But don't get insulted if I question your beliefs in return. I have nothing against you, sir.

And I wouldn't be suprised of it, juding by your debate methods.:shifty:

So I'm done.

Well, the funny thing is you're the one that threw an insult at me. Not the other way around. But seriously though, I don't take it personally.

Then you aren't a US taxpayer. If you are then assuming you are too young to have made any money before this year you will still be getting a Bush tax cut when you pay your 2007 taxes.

And that is Bush's fault how?

I agree that the Chinese produce crap but, sorry, :lol: your story sounds like a load of bovine feces. Flaming tacos? really... :roll:

Wrong. The United States CONGRESS holds the nations purse strings and controls the issue of money, not the Administration. Civics 101 man.

Meh, this is nothing compared to the old days. I was born in 1959. You want to contemplate the possibilty of WW3 try experiencing air raid drills in grade school. Try seeing fallout shelters in peoples back yards. "Remember kids if you see a bright flash, stop, drop and cover!" Try standing on the edge of the actual Iron Curtain as a young Army private in the late 1970's and looking across the barbed wire and minefields at a powerful and modern equipped enemy army that outnumbered you so badly it would take the use of nukes to stop them if the decided to attack like everyone expected them to at any moment.

Inflation is not severe at all and certainly nothing compared to what we had during the Carter administration but inflation is hardly the presidents fault.

Again all this is Bush's fault how?

Cooperation a very two way street and the Democrats have been in power for a year now. Instead of trying to work with the administration or the other side of the aisle at all, they have spent that time doing what they can to further polarize this country when they ain't badmouthing our our own service people.

Depends on what you mean by start over but yeah i'd also like to see a big congressional shakeup.

Wrong again. The US Congress voted for this war. Where do you hear this junk?

Hitler had the situation under control in Germany as well. Your point?

The bottom line is that Saddam Hussein was a die hard enemy of this country who would have done everything he could to hurt us and had the oil money to do it with once we pulled our boot off his neck. He repeatedly violated the Gulf war cease fire agreement for 12 YEARS by firing on our forces patrolling the UN no fly zone almost on a daily basis when he wasn't massacring Kurds and Shias or threatening to use the WMD he did his best to convince the entire world he had. That's like telling a cop you have illegal guns and drugs at your house and complaining when they subsequently raid it but don't find any.

Members of Congress from both US parties as well as the previous administration repeatedly said ever since the Gulf war ended that he was a huge danger to this country and needed to be taken out. Just because certain democrats have selective amnesia now doesn't change that.

If anything that tendancy toward amnesia proves to me that while he is certainly no Teddy Roosevelt, Bush was the best choice available at the time.

i will state one fact in the 40 odd years of conflict in northern ireland do you know how many IRA major weapons caches were found a massive 2 thats a country 40 times smaller than iraq , just becasue we didnt find them doesnt mean they were not there


and this lame arguement about permission that the US president needs,he has to ask congress thats why hes not the most powerful man in the world the leader of the chiniese republic needs to ask no-one to go to war

:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:Nice hit.
