The US government is now worse than the soviets were. The propaganda
isn't even well thought out. It'sxd obvious that they don't know the
truth anymore, since they've spun so many lies they can't even keep them
straight in their own minds anymore.

Lie to cover up a lie...

PatriotApr 24th, 2007 - 18:02:28

what a sin this war has been, we won't 'win' anything but a guaranteed
future of even more enraged muslim hordes looking to kill us. We need
smarts in our leadership to battle their irrational faith. Interesting
that Sheryl Crowe, despite her wacky suggestions-is dead on in promoting
biofuels. If we did not need to import oil we could tell the middle east
to beat it What a great day that would be! I think green awareness and
fuel alternatives are as American in spirit as the tea party in Boston
all those years ago.

As americans we are all such cowards and simpletons. We can't figure out
that we need to flood Iraq with soldiers and overcome this challenge.

Are we all so scared and weak-minded that we run when we see adversity.
It is appalling and disappointing, it seems like this country needs
another Pearl Harbor or 9-11 before we will have resolve hardened.

Iraq was a mistake we all know that now, but how we handle our mistakes
is what will define us as a country. I wish we had a politician who
wasn't afraid to say this is how we will win the war in Iraq. Instead we
are all pining away for a spineless leader who wants to cut and run.
Focus on welfare, abortion and any other liberal pet issue.

Our country has steadily declined in our economic prowess and
inventiveness since we lost Vietnam. I wonder how low we will sink after
we lose Iraq because of all the spineless folks.

If we stopped buying middleast fuel their countries would become even
poorer and their suppresive leaders would still blame the US.causing
more Jihadist Islam is evil, pure and simple truth. It has give these
repressed people someone to blame instead of their evil and unhuman
religion that keeps them unstified with their human existance!

ChristinaApr 24th, 2007 - 18:26:02

Leaving this war is not about being spineless. It's about realize we
made a mistake and righting out wrongs. Are the Iraqi people honestly
better off now than before? Are they actually 'free'?? They still live
in fear of their lives and under the influence of a negative controlling
force. If anyone is spineless, it is our leader for not being man enough
to admit his mistake and his lies and right this wrong. Soldiers are
dying every day for a war that the American public does not support and
for a war that was started under false pretenses. How many years has it
been since that banner read 'Mission Accomplished' and don't try to spin
any bull about him not knowing about that. He's the president, I don't
believe for a second he doesn't know what a sign behind him says.

Bottom line, we must find a way to get out of Iraq. Not only for our own
good, but for the good of the Iraqi people. We have become enablers and
are probably causing more violence in the country by our mere presence.

i was at fort bliss with ms. lynch she was a slut and as for tillman do
you honestly think special forces shot thier own? the truth is is that
in the army there is a saying that there is no such thing as friendly
fire. my bet is that tillman showed his buddies he couldnt be trusted so
they took actions. thats the truth of war if you have quarrels then join
the army or work in politics and change it dont just sit around typing
complaints on the internet. my bet is you are all stupid, media
brainwashed minimum wage liberals.

JeanieApr 24th, 2007 - 18:26:12

I think it is time for the American people to stand up and say enough to
Bush and Cheney and their illegal war. What has Bush done that was not a
lie in the years that he has been in office.. I honestly believe that he
is a disgrace to the office and I wish Congress had the nerve to stand
behind the American people and do what they voted them in for.

MachiavelliApr 24th, 2007 - 18:26:14

Patriot, why do you call the Muslims faith irrational? Is it more so
than Christian faith? The attitude that Islam is 'irrational' is one of
the things that makes this war worse than it has to be: The Muslim
community in the Middle East know that many 'Westerners' think Islam
'irrational' and many believe that the U.S. is fighting a war on Islam,
not terrorism. To be fair I don't think that extremists should take it
as far as they have (bombings etc.), but it is not as if they haven't
been provoked. This war has made a mess that we will not be able to fix
for decades, maybe longer, but the least we can do is not call shots
against a faith that is given an extreme bad rap by its radicals and
extremists that claim that is is the will of Allah/God.

tbApr 24th, 2007 - 18:26:21

repressed sheeple someone to blame instead of their evil and unhuman
religion that keeps them unsatisfied with their human existance!

File this under Bush's 'Mission Accomplished' Cheney's 'The insurgency
is in its final throes' Condi's 'Why We Know Iraq Is Lying' Rumsfeld's
'We know Where the weapons of mass destruction are' Wolfowitz's 'The war
will pay for itself.' Almost makes you want to pull your kids out of
college and send them to work digging ditches. How could this seemingly
well educated lot make so many mistakes and mistatements? Are we the
people really this stupid or are Americans as a group delusional and
easily led?

Since this is all about the truth then lets look at the big picture. I
am a little supprised by the media intensity of Pat Tillmans death. The
facts as reported by other soldiers there are now available for everone
to view. No this is about a failure to present the truth in a timely
maner. Since that is also obvious then Everyday Americans fight and die
for a war

rskaeterApr 24th, 2007 - 18:28:02

it's just more of the same. LIES LIES
LIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!this admin. has lied about
everything since they were put in office by the (oil) powers that be.
That was the start of the lies. That mr. bush 'won' the election. the
Iraq war.. wmd's...etc. etc. etc. to have the Military LIE to promote
his war is absolutely outrageous.. Why in the world isn't this admin.
IMPEACHED? Anyone who believes ANY of these people...has to be living in
the same sh t pile these people crawled out from.

Lynch was the young veteran who was savaged by Iraqi soldiers and who
nearly lost her life in service to her country.
Give me a break! She got caught under fire, was treated and essentially
released before her fellow officers 'came to her rescue'.

icantsleepApr 24th, 2007 - 18:31:51

I recall seeing Jessica on the motivational speakers circuit in
Charlotte, NC shortly after she returned home. She didn't seem to mind
all the hoopla about her story then.......my have times changed.

PuzzledApr 24th, 2007 - 18:31:55

Backbone,
Where will the troops to 'flood Iraq' come from? Are you advocating
reinstatement of the draft?

The OmsbudsmanApr 24th, 2007 - 18:31:59

Fact check, please:

1) The claim that Lynch was sexually assaulted came from Rick Bragg, who
wrote a book about her. Lynch herself has never claimed she was sexually
assaulted, nor that she was mistreated.


2) The American doctor who examined Lynch said she received excellent
medical care, especially in light of the conditions in Iraq at the time.
This medical care included using one of the last bone braces in Iraq to
stabilize her injuries.

LAZApr 24th, 2007 - 18:33:10

Let's talk about saving lives and even enhancing those of people with
real illnesses that can be helped. BE FOR MORE STEM CELL RESEARCH.

Let's talk about saving lives... by coming home from Iraq and then
taking care of our returning vets, and especially those that are
injured. Enough is enough.

Let's talk about saving lives... by helping those in need here, at home.
People who are in need of medical insurance, from children to seniors.

You are not a coward or anti-patriot when you express your unwillingness
to swallow the lies and distortions of this administration. Beef up our
own borders. We cannot win a war that has been fought for most of
recorded history... by fuedal tribes and religions. Zealots who cherish
not peace but martyrdom.



PLOPApr 24th, 2007 - 18:33:18

the war was completely legal, unfortunately. signed and sealed with
permission of the UN and congress of the US to use force. John Kerry,
Hillary, and Edwards all agree with bush.

TOM FLORESApr 24th, 2007 - 18:35:13

Kevin cormier, will you accept a collect call?

KirbyApr 24th, 2007 - 18:36:22

You got that right 'trampled'. Our government, press and corporate
organization have trampled on individaul rights in this country long
enough

HA! HA! HA!! your trippin shadow!!! America is WORSE today than the
soviet union??? This beats every one of your wild ideas and propoganda
against america. Please shadow...seek professional help or give Rosie a
call. I am sure she can find you a spot right there with her hatred
which of course got her whatsee? FIRED.

Big Sis you crack me up. You are right on the money and readling
shadow's latest cut and paste rant reminded me that I have 12 bags of
fertilizer to spread on the garden. Have to go to work now

My reply to this is, go visit russia & see if you still think the same.
Frieends who have been there, don't really want to EVER go back.
Sharing clothes wash water with an entire building. Not for me.

My friend I am from Russia...

This is for OldSage Привет! Как дела? Что нового? Очень приятно

shadow go back to russia

I THINK THAT OUR GOVERNMENT NEED STO GET RID OF THE BUSH THEY ARE HIDING
BEHIND, THERE ARE NONE OVER THERE IN IRAQ FOR OUR TROOPS TO HIDE BEHIND.
WE JUST NEED TO BOMB THE CRAP OUT OF THEM AND TURN THEIR COUNTRY INTO A
7-ELEVEN PARKING LOT AND THEN FORGET ABOUT THEM.....LOL. BUT SERIOUSLY
WE NEED TO STOP THE ATTACKS AND THE ONLY WAY IS TO START DROPPING BOMBS
EVERYDAY ALL DAY LONG. THEY WILL STOP SOON ENOUGH.

Sorry I can't read your post.
Makes me think you are ashamed of what you have to say.
English is the language of the USA.
If you love Russia so much, why are you here?
Point of curiosity.

oldsage can you understand this:

Hóigh! Cad é mar atá tú? Céard atá nuacht?
Tá Éire tír iontach.
Ba chóir dom dul.
Feicfidh mé roimh i bhfad thú!

Maybe i am IRA

i could be taliban, or i could be an agent deepthroat, or i can be the
worst thing on this planet right now that all Republicans hate and that
is I am the Voice Of JUSTICE. I am the Voice of Freedom. I am the
Voice.

Good manners won't let me say what I think you are.
Glad you hold yourself in such high esteem.
I don't think your writings show it.

or you could be a fifteen-year-old little boy, having a bit too much fun
on mama's computer.

to funny lulu

HEY LULU I THINK THAT MAYBE YOU ARE RIGHT ABOUT IT BEING JUST A KID,
PLAYIN' HERE. LIKE ALL THE OTHERS, HE OR SHE NEEDS TO GO PLAY SOMEWHERE
ELSE LIKE THE INTERSTATE AND MAYBE GET HIT BY A BIG TRUCK THAT IS
AMERICA'S LIFELINE AND THEN WE CAN SEND HIM OR HER BACK TO RUSSIA OR
IRAQ OR WHEREVER THEY CAME FROM. WE NEED TO KEEP OUR COUNTRY IN PEACE
AND NOT HAVING THESE PUNKS RUIN IT FOR THE REST OF US. SO LET'S ALL JUST
IGNORE SHADOWEAGLE AND CARRY ON WHAT IS REALLY HAPPENING HERE. LET'S ALL
LIVE IN PEACE. LIKE I SAID IN MY LAST POST --- JUST BOMB THE CRAP OUT OF
THEM AND CALL IT GOOD. NAYPALM WOULD DO THE TRICK. 300 OR SO OF THEM
BOMBS SHOULD WIPE OUT ALL THOSE WHO WANT TO HIDE IN THE CAVES LIKE
BINLADEN. IT WOULD JUST SEND THE FLAMES INTO THEM AND BURN EVERYTHING IN
SIGHT. COULD BE ANOTHER HIROSHIMA OR NAGASAKI WITHOUT THE FEAR OF THE
FALL OUT.

ShadowEagle, Your topic is "United We stand". do you notice that you
always stand ALONE? One other thing, If you're not for Bush then why do
you use his picture?
