Kerry has conceded

[jimbo]

The US was at one of it's lowest points since the great depression - while one of the most intelligent presidents in our history was at the helm.

It wasn't all Jimmy's fault, it was the 70s, post-watergate and all.

Geeez - wearing polyester and four inch heels was considered cool. What hope did the presidency have?

I like Jimmy, he lusted in his heart. (remember that one)

Success in the war against terrorism will largely depend on our ability to eliminate or reduce the financial stability of the terrorist organizations .........

now who is better qualified to do this than G W Bush ?

Somebody call Guiness, I think we're getting close to the record here.

Somebody needs to drop in and say something inflamatory so we can ramp it back up.

Yeah, he attacked a country that had nothing to do with the terrorist act that occurred here.

How quickly we forget about the "ignored" warnings of the attack, the reports of rumsfeld hounding the intel agencies to produce ("fabricate") reasons to attack Iraq,
The presidents own efforts (yellowcake) to (successfully)dupe Americans into believing Saddam was behind 911.



What kind of religious morality can you attribute to a Pres and v.p. who never saw a day of combat duty and yet were foaming at the mouth to send our boys and, ahem ..."HERO" ...girls [not like Jessica Lynch (they really blew that one)] to their death in the name of corporate profits and revenge for the "hit" that Saddam attempted on Bush senior.

"Dumbya" just strikes me as a smarmy, arrogant rich kid whose old man, among others, are really pulling the strings

It's being said that Saddam may get off the hook now, due to underwhelming evidence and lost evidence of terrorist activities.

People have been calling the guys in the white house the "chicken hawks" because they all dodged the draft when they had the chance to serve in combat, yet they seem so eager to send kids today into harms way in an equally morally questionable, possibly unwinable, war/police-action.

Just replace the term "communism" with "terrorism" and it seems many of the old arguments from the 60s resurface again.

I just keep hoping the two wars only "look" similar. In vietnam we found ourselves trying to keep a country divided that for the most part the citizens wanted to be united.

Now we are trying to keep a country united (under the banner of democracy) that seems for the most part to want to be divided.

What if the majority of people just want to vote themselves into a theocracy (a religious dictatorship)? Can we allow this to happen?

Are we going to try to setup the rules of the election (districting etc.) so that this won't happen? If we're successful in installing a more secular leader will he be accepted by the religious majority?

What will the cost of all this be to the USA? Usama said in his last message that his plan is to bankrupt the United States. While this seems like a desperate hope of a desperate man is there not a true danger of fiscal problems resulting from the war in Iraq?

[jimbo]

mmmmmmm 8 tracks

For years I would anticipate a fadeout where the track was going to switch on my Pink Floyd albums for example.

It was weird listening to a cd and having no fade in the middle of "shine on you crazy diamond".

For the Bush administration to accept the real democratic desires of the people in Iraq, the USA would be forced to forever to leave Iraq, without first installing a USA puppet government in place, and secondly, without leaving large, fulltime USA military bases in Iraq,... would mean yet another, 'complete failure,' for this Bush administration.

Under the guise of "terrorist threat", the goal of the Bush Administration has always been to secure, militarily (and hopefully ideologically), the geographic center of the world's known oil reserves, ( including Saudi Arabia and its other oil producing neighbors), as all of the other world powers rise to an economic standard of living where auto use, and oil consumption begin to rival the USA's own, ever growing needs for an endless supply of oil.

Everyone in the world, except for a few fundamental, 'blinded by faith' republicans in the USA, completely understand that the Bush administration and it's big corporations, see that the world has become controlled by four, fairly equal, and very oil hungry geo/economic areas:

1. The enormous economic power of a more unified Europe (and eventually Russia), and it's own powerful world corporations, (including 'British Petroleum', the world's largest oil company)
2. The emerging world giant of China (already the world's leader in oil consumption and oil imports), and the rest of the Orient, including the huge Japanese corporations,
3. India, and it's flood of technically educated youth, and enormous consumer hungry populations,
4. The USA, the PAST leader of liberal thought, education, & research technology, which is sadly fading into an isolated, non secular, intellectual Dark Age, that will leave it's masses without the economic earnings of the past, as the ruling Administration helps it's large USA corporations move most of their employee/labor based functions, overseas to maximize corporate profits, which will benefit the corporations' owners only.

It is from this point of securing oil reserves, that the the USA has made the invasion of Iraq. And if the Bush Administration is forced by the Iraqi will, to exit Iraq without securing their very long term goals, the whole illegal and murderous Iraqi adventure will always been seen by the world, as the USA's greatest imperialist failure.

(and remember, that until the USA PROMISES to the world that the USA will leave completely, other world powers will NOT assist the USA efforts. To do so, would obviously be against their own future economic oil interests.)

How very sad when hysterical rhetoric and political diatribe as espoused by some far left intellectual derelicts are substituted for reason. It appears that BAM*BAM might be a pseudonymous substitute for Michael Moore another loser.

Oh by the way. VICTORY- VICTORY- VICTORY
