dude, i do feel sorry for you.
Your paranoia is quite excessive. It must be quite frightening to be you.
The president CANNOT call anyone a terrorist and take away their rights. And use his new power to call martial law?
My goodness. We have a system of government, checks and balances, not a dictatorship. Not even in the same ballpark.
Your ignorance of Hitler, and how he came to power, refutes the old saying that "ignorance is bliss." Ignorance must be pure hell for you.
I question your history. I question your present.
You really need to read some books.
You are the very person Bush is acting to protect.

gimpel, it is almost impossible to break through that kind of mentality. There is an old song with the lyrics, "I hear you knocking, but you can't come in." That is what Liberal Democrats do. imd once told me that he was more informed than me. It is that kind of blind arrogance that plagues our country today. Unfortunately Howard Dean and the Liberal Democratic leaders know this and stir the arrogantly unaware up in frenzy.

I can remember six years ago and again two years ago hearing students at public Middle and High schools talk about President Bush bringing back slavery. I knew that their parents were talking about this. I tried to convince the students that even if it were remotely true that it would be impossible to do. No one in DC would allow this to happen.

You would think after the first four years without even a whisper or hint that this was a part of the Presidents agenda I was floored to see the issue re-surface in the next election.

Six years into the presidency and people cannot name one American in slavery. When you talk to these people it almost wants you to use a 2X4-reality check right between their eyes. I heard an interesting saying today. "It makes me want to chews nails and poot b.b.'s."

The only hope we have is that there are enough people who deal in reality to carry the majority.

On the side, did you hear the recent John Kerry speech? "We are going to stay the course... We need to get an exit stratigy to get out of Iraq... We will need to change Presidents Bush's mind." Of course Rush put this all together. "Stay the course, cut and run, and we'll have to get the President to change some of his plans." Sounds like a rational plan to me!!!!

Okay, you tell me the history, since what we have read apparently differs. Tell me what the Enabling Act was. Tell me also exactly how did Hitler bring about a dictatorship?

I see the point you are making, but I doubt imdstuf will understand. President Bush's successor will be Senator John McCain from Arizona. Isn't that a scary thought mydtwc and imdstuf? Another 4 years of the Republican party.

The Republican Party will not back McCain. He is not far enough to the right for their liking. I think he might be an okay candidate, but I doubt the current powers that be would back him.

Guess what? Alot of people go into the army because they could not get college scholarships or get accepted into college. Sad, but true. Not all, but alot. Why shouldn't someone warn them that the military makes promises of wonderful things, but right now wants to use many of these young men and women as peices of meat in the Bush war machine. Not fighting those that attacked us on 9/11 though. Fighting in an unprovoked invasion of Iraq. Kerry himself was a soldier, so I doubt he meant insults to all soldiers, as that would include himself. He did however see what soldiers and the Vietnamese had to go through during the Vietnam war. When did Bush serve in Vietnam?

Kerry also said in defense of the troops who you say he insulted, "it is the president who owes U.S. soldiers an apology — for 'a Katrina foreign policy' that misled the country into war in Iraq, failed to adequately study and plan for the aftermath, has not properly equipped troops and has expanded the terrorist threat. 'I'm sick and tired of a bunch of despicable Republicans who will not debate real policy, who won't take responsibility for their own mistakes, standing up and trying to make other people the butt of those mistakes,' he said. 'It disgusts me that a bunch of these Republican hacks who've never worn the uniform of our country are willing to lie about those who did.'

Well, then what do you do with all of the other disparaging comments Kerry has made about the military?

Why do you attempt to justify and explain away comments from liberals as misunderstanding but jump to condemn Republicans? You take things out of context and add what you want to make the story worse.

If you quack long enough you could be the next John Kerry.

Quack Quack Quack!!!

I think I am going to start calling you; Imdadumbstuf, because you are so uninformed it is scary. You believe everything that comes out of a Democrats mouth. John Kerry is an idiot. He has just reiterated what he has been saying for almost 30 years. He hates, like most Liberals, the military.

He only served in the military for political gain; why else would anyone carry a film camera to war with them? Have you every read what he won his Silver Star for? He rescued a drowning soldier while under fire. Well as a former Medic, we do that everyday, so where are all those soldier’s Silver Stars? Well he really knew three scratches and you are out. Then back to Washington to tell lies on his fellow service members. In my mind he is either a liar or a war criminal. Because every soldier knows that if you see things that he claimed he saw, being an officer, he had to report it to his higher ups. Instead he told Congress so he could run for political office. So imdstuf which one is he?

Oh yea tell me again what unit Clinton served with in Viet Nam? Liberals seem to forget about that one.

Obviously imdstuf, you have never served in the military, or the military of now. If you did you would know that the American soldier is the smartest soldier in the world. I know I did not join because I could not get into college; I graduated high school with a B average. I did not join because I did not have the money for school; my parents are pretty well off. I joined, like a lot of people I met in my career, because we wanted to serve our country! (Oh yea I graduated college with a 3.6 GPA…while working full time and I got my BS in under 4 years.)

What really pisses me off is who he said this statement to; rich, little, liberal, Left Coast, surfing, fruits. I know many, many service member receive their degrees while serving their country and working 60 hour work weeks. How many civilians do you know that do that? Not many. He also left out one thing, in the Army a soldier has to go to college to get promoted, did you know that? In many MOSs, a solider would have to have at least an Associates Degree just to make Sergeant. I wonder what percentage of the students he was talking to will actually get their degree…that might surprise him.

I think we, as Georgians, (Oh yea I moved back to Georgia a month ago.) should lobby our Democratic leaders. We need to remind them that the military is the largest employer in this state and many of us vote in the states in which we are stationed. They need to demand Kerry’s resignation, like they do when a Republican makes a so call misstatement.

I think I am going to start my own political action group. I think I will call it Veterans, Soldiers, Family and Friends for Change (VSFFC). Is anyone with me? So in other words John Kerry is an military hating, liberal, douche. I wish he would come to Georgia to campaign; I have some nice rotten eggs to throw at him. HOOAH!!!! Let me know what y’all think about my political action group…..
