Do you really think the anti-GWB news is running low?

There's more than ever, approval rates are falling, support for involvement in Iraq is diminishing, and a certain re-election in 04 being pissed away are clear signs that GWB is in trouble.

Cwil, when will you get it??? GWB don't give a rats ass about his approval ratings and what people are thinking of him... he has Cronies (sp)all around him...
many probably selling the shirt off his back... but what his agenda is is Keeping America Safe and the American People Safe and also other people around the world for that matter... he don't give a **** about up and down in the Polls... he was Hired/Elected to give the American People his best effort to look out for whats best for America... and what he's done so far is just that... it's a Far Cry from a **** in the Oval Office and then a crappy Appology to the American People in front of the Whole World Watching... that he was Sorry... and he didn't really think he lied... his thoughts were... a BJ wasn't really Sex... Give me a Break!!!!!! the Low Life Scum Sucker we had in Office for 8 misrible Years Demoralized every American right before the Worlds Eye's and then just grinned about it!!!!!

for your Black and White Facts on the WMD everyone is ranting Bush Lied about I have posted it many times here... and like I said there are 160,000 Vets Suffering or Dead from the WMD leftovers from (My Last Posts on Gulf War Syndrome's latest release last week) studies still coming in from 1991-1998 Military Members suffering from the Effects of the Crap in that Region.... one of the guy's at work just as recent as Wednsday was told that he is suffering from FIBROMYALGIA SYNDROME... here's what the effects of this are...
http://www.fmnetnews.com/pages/basics.html

along with many other Mystrious unsolved deseases the Vets are coming down with... here's another link I posted on another Thread..
http://www.cdc.gov/nceh/veterans/default2g.htm

and another
http://www.military.com/NewsContent?file=FL_gulf_092303

Why do I give a rats ass about everyone Bitching about where's the WMD's??? Bush was Lieing!!!!!

I'll tell you why... I've done 4 tours to that region for my Country in 1996, returned home then 1997 getting ready to redeploy I tested posative for TB... so didn't 9 of 13 guys in the unit who deployed the previous year...I took the Medication for this 9 months after returning home in 1997... I have a Cronic Sinus problem so doesn't about 500,000 other military vets who've been to that region since the Gulf War 1991 ended to date...and many more will come home with the same... in 1999 I did a tour to Saudi Arabia... PSAB... I returned home and since was diagnosed with Irritable Bowl and Chronic Fatigue... my last and probably Final Tour was in 2002 Operation Enduring Freedom... We Bombed the living **** out of Taliban in Afganistan!!!! I am still deployed in my Eye's because I left on this tour 100% physically fit... and I have returned home bating 50%... I've been diagnosed with BPH Chronic Prostitus... I go in October 8th for Neuromuscular Evaluations... this may seal my Fate as a Military Fighting Member...at 39 with 18 yrs Military and I'll tell you myself I'm a Proud,Cocky, Straight Forward **** to some who don't know me...at times I wish I had never takin on the last mission but to be honest I would do it again in a Heartbeat!!!! my Wife knows this the best... (She say's I Love the Military more then I do her) the Fact is I Love America and it's about!!!! and I'll fight to the Death for it's souvernty!!!!!
So this is why I get so lightheaded when I hear People trying to Slander someone else who is trying to make this land a better place!!!! most the time I shake my head at allot of the Comments made on here... and I'm sorry I didn't on this one...

But Chris you are a Brother of the Leaf and I would enjoy herfing with you and anyone else Anytime!!!!

I just want to see Justice for my Fellow Military Brothers and Sisters.... I also want to see this Land Free for my Grandkids and their Kids!!!!

Sorry for the Rant!!!!!

How - Great reply!! Don't mix topics though, I understand and applaud everything you and every other incredible member of our military has done and endured to help keep America great. What I'm saying is that I don't think GWB is doing that, even though he may have good intentions. And the WMD is a big deal, because if it's unsubstantiated that means we sent a lot of our service heros to fight and die under false pretenses. And that makes me ill!!

I not only consider you a true BOTL who I would be proud to herf with, I consider you a friend and a good man who has given more than his share to serving and protecting this great nation.

We just happen to differ on the Iraq subject, and on GWB. I whole-heartedly believe that he cares more about doing what's necessary to get re-elected than he does about doing what's right for America. And that's a major part of my disgust for him. I don't know if any of the dem candidates are any better, but I sure hope so!!

yep your Right... we Differ on GWB... I Personally think he's not a "Yes Man" although I think he's surrounded by allot of those types... especially the one's giving him the information to feed out to the public...on events like WMD in Iraq... again it was right there in my Post... he didn't Lie to the Military members... any Military Member who's been in long enough to know about Iraq or do tours to that Area know the Threat is/was real!!!! and any Military Member who joined because of the events of 911 know the real reasons why we're at the extended existance of the Military Today!!!!

what I ask you is... how many times since 911 has there been a Terrorist event in the United States?

Right after 911 all the Anthrax in the Mail Occured... how much in recent months years since 911 has that taken place??

yea Our Boy's and Girl's are still in the Mountians in Afganistan and Pakastan searching out Ol'Bin Ladin and company... and yea they haven't shoved a Cruise Missle up ol'Saddams ass just yet... but how much WMD or Nucler Threats have hit the Soils of our Nation since Bush GWB Commander and Chief has Takin the War to them?? "We Will not Falter We Will not Fail"

Chris I cut what I was saying/meaning short.. I also view you as a friend along with Brother of the Leaf... Our Differences on Politics... I've enjoyed the Debates with you and I think that has made us a closer friendship!!!!

Hog - How many terrorist attacks were there on American soil before 9/11? 1 in the last ten years, it's not like GWB single handedly stopped an epidemic of terroist attacks. We suffered through one and haven't had any since, and I don't think GWB is responsible for it.

I gotta get back to work now so have a great weekend and enjoy some fine smokes!

on American Soils???

before 911...

bombing of the USS Cole off the coast of Yemen in 2000....Hit Home....

the simultaneous bombing of American embassies in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania and Nairobi, Kenya in 1998... Hit Home....

the destruction of the Khobar Towers in Saudi Arabia in 1996....Hit Home....

the bombing of the World Trade Center in 1993....Hit Home....

Any time Americans are Killed Civilian or Military it Hits Home....

I know Many Liberals Beliefes (sp) are if its not at there doorstep it isn't on their homefront....

At first, bin Laden's principle opponents were the secular, and often corrupt, governments in the Arab world, especially those in Egypt and Saudi Arabia. Such "Non-Islamic" regimes and other influences, such as Westerners and non-Muslims, were among the group's first targets. More specifically, bin Laden and other top Qaeda leaders have called for the "liberation" of the three holy places of Islam: Jerusalem, Mecca and Medina. They are further incensed by the U.S. military presence in the Middle East, especially in Saudi Arabia, and by the cooperation (albeit often tacit) Arab governments afford the United States on issues concerning the Middle East.

During the 1990s, bin Laden's mandate to wage jihad (holy war) increasingly encompassed American targets, both civilian and military, which he views as ultimately responsible for what he considers the secular, debased state of the Arab world. In February 1998, bin Laden issued a religious ruling (fatwa) from the newly formed umbrella organization "The World Islamic Front for Jihad Against the Jews and Crusaders," which called on all Muslims to kill U.S. citizens and their allies. Meanwhile, al Qaeda continued to infiltrate and merge with a number of major Islamic terrorist organizations from around the globe. It is this international, semi-corporate amalgamation of terrorist cells, which grew to include nearly any Muslim affiliated terrorist group with a grudge against the United States or its allies, that authorities are currently trying to stop. The very nature of this terrorist network makes this a Herculean task.

the Exerpt was takin from the link Below.... it's Factual and this is what we Americans have been fighting long before 911...

http://www.cdi.org/terrorism/terrorist.cfm

So I ask you Chris Since you answered a Question with a Question... How many Acts Since 911 have been on the homefront???

You asked, "how many times since 911 has there been a Terrorist event in the United States".
So I answered, and threw the exact same question back with a different time frame. Don’t get all pissed off and start categorizing liberals as only caring about what goes on at their doorstep when I simply answered the question and returned a question within the same parameters. I’m not a moron and I realize there have been other attacks against America, even though they were not within the US.

You mentioned the Anthrax which was an obvious attack but let’s not forget the shoe bomber guy, and the countless other scares and raises of the terror alert level. The main brunt of my point was that GWB didn't swoop down to prevent any other bad from happening to the citizens of the US, 9/11 itself made the US protect itself regardless of our president.

One thing to consider is that to date we've lost nearly 300 soldiers and more than 1500 Iraqi civilians. And just this week GWB came out and said there were no clear links between 9/11 and Iraq. We were told that there were WMD in Iraq that were a clear and present danger to the US, well if they were so dangerous, where the f*ck are they? They can’t be too dangerous if we can’t find them; even though we should all believe the gov’t that they’re there. Another thing to consider is this, if we haven’t found them and they were so dangerous, wouldn’t they still be dangerous? Shouldn’t we find them so he doesn’t use them? And if they were so dangerous, why didn’t he use them to stop us from rolling over them??? It just doesn’t make sense, and this very issue is coming back to bite GWB, and it’s the same issue that’s losing him 2004…

that's enough for me tonight, I'm kinda tipsy if you didn't notice so don't take this the wrong way...

I have to agree with Usahog, even though he asked the question in a particular manner which led to you're answer which is correct except for a few that Usahog mentioned with the 1993 Trade Towers bombing and Pearl Harbor. Whether its at home or abroad when it happens to the men or women of the United States It doesnt matter what region in the world it occured in it might as well happened in the United States for what Americans feel and how they re-act to what happens.

Usahog I know you've given alot to this country in return for allot as well and for that I thank you and if by chance our paths ever cross remind me to buy you the biggest beer and finest smoke available. I only served 4 years in the Marines but in my eyes thats 4 more than 75% of most Americans. Thank you again

Oh and another, not to ruffle anyones feathers but cwilhelmi you wrote in you're last post "They cant be to dangerous if we cant find them" That statement will get allot of people killed or injured. Think about it long enough and you'll see that what you just said is the most fallacious statement made so far on this board.

mrsanmrfox, Once a Marine.. always a Marine... thats their Moto... I've got 2 cousins and a Nephue in the Marines...I've not giving near as much as many...

Cwil... we lost more then 300 the first hour of hitting the beaches at Normandy!!!! (Hour) I'm not getting all Pissy and I'm sorry if you took Offence to the Liberal Statement...it was not directed directly at you Chris... this is the only word I could think of using where through this whole event people have closed their eye's to what good has come out of Ousting Iraqi's Saddam Hussain... Rather then sitting on our hands for another 12 years... this is one Headache that was costing Tax Payers Billions each year.. no one seen it because no one really gave a **** and went on with their lives...for the past 12 yrs proir to Gulf War 2... Americans have been Occupying (sp) Bases in Saudi, Turkey,Kuwait all around the Region to Keep Saddam and his WMD's and Hinchmen from Attacking and Killing the ****ti's in the South and the Kurds in the North... or launching another assult on Neighboring Country's like Kuwait...
"Billions" lets say 5 billions US Moneys for 12 years... and thats a Low Low figure... thats 60 Billion Dollars US. WE don't have to spend the next 12 years wiping Saddams ass for his Neighbors... but you stated GWB is dumping Billions into rebuilding and restructuring Iraq... something like 48 Billion of that is going into the Fiscal Budget to Cover the Military Members Present and Past...what did GWB ask for??? 87 Billion? and that has many folks in a Tizzy??? and every time the Republicans Stop promoting a Bill it goes Public that their not helping the Military Members... look that Frikin Bill up because they (Usually Dems) Tack on all sorts of Bull**** Bills to sign into Law along with the Original one the Repubs.. get Blamed for... it's called throw enough **** on the Wall and something will Stick and American People Catching the News have **** all over them!!!!


I heard last night that they callled up another 30,000 reservists... these guys/gals will be taking the places of many Military members who are "Tired" they've been in the region since before the war started...I just hope congress can get off their ass's and get things worked out for the Guard and Reserves to get the same Benifits as the Active Duty Components...

Rick did you read my latest post on that?? the Onyx that is??

I know how you feel about GWB Rick.. my Sister feels the same way... here's a blirp from her point of View LOL....

What is all the paranoia about Hillary Clinton? We have REAL issues that are prevalent and not being dealt with. So what if some military guy won't support another. You yourself are in a similar situation. You have a bunch of military people around you that are trying to destroy you. So what does that mean about that guy and Wes Clark? What do you really know about Wes Clark? Shouldn't that be the thing you want to find out? What YOU think about him and not what everyone or anyone else for that matter tell you? I will definitely check him out. We have to do something to get that current idiot out of the White House. Talk about mindless puppets. Does anyone have a muzzle? He is really getting the United States into deep ****. Can't you see that?

So you think I just catch it on the Forums??? hell no I get it through my Emails from Family also!!!!
Thats Why its America!!!!!!!

Not to Stir any thing up But I have a thought..
First off I'm Not a Fan of GWB's Politic's (sp) But I do think he has done a pretty darn good job at handling this so far with the Info and intel that has been presented to him. Point 1. He does have to rely on what intel he is given after all he can't go running over there himself and check things out..
Poiint # 2. What if now that Ol' Sadam has and did in fact make every thing Look as if he really did have WMD when in fact all the time he did not.?? Now I know what your going to say but stop and think about it ,it wouldn't be to hard to fake someone out using empty containers and marked trucks to make anyone watching think you had some thing that you infact did not have would it.?? After all we are talking about a person with a really twisted mind here..Now if that were the case would GWB or any one else for that matter be wrong after having Pic's and routes and times and dates all documented showing these things being moved and handled doing what ever it takes to make sure this country and others are safe.?? Now even if we don't want to or don't like to think that we can be fooled the Plain fact is anyone can be fooled and just because we are the USA doen't mean that we are any smarter or any sneakyer than any one else.It is a possible action that could have happened in which case should we not as Americans with a system of laws in place at least give GWB or anyone else in his spot the benifit of the doubt until or unless it can be proven One way or the other.?? Like I said at the beginning I'm not a Supporter of GWB but I am a supporter of the Commander and Chief of this country until or unless it is proven that he or She has comitted an act that is Illegeal or against Man Kind...IMHO...TinMan
