Once again you have failed to answer my other questions from earlier I want to know…”What I have to ask you is if more then 3/4 of the people who carried out the attacks on 9/11 why did we attack Sadam Hussein and go into Afghanistan? Was it not Saudi Arabia’s fault?”

They were trained, armed, and lead from Afghanistan. Unlike Obama, Bush doesn’t discuss attacking allied nations on national television.

Why do republicans constantly compare a somewhat socialist agenda to communism. It is no where close to it. Communism is everyone getting the exact same pay for doing whatever job they get.

Socialism is the stepping stone to communism. If you need a history book I’ll be glad to mail you one. But even by your own definition of communism, if a doctor gets paid $250,000 but pays 60% taxes for being “rich” and an engineer gets paid $100,000 but is tax exempt from being “middle-class”, they get the same paychecks. This whole “tax the rich more” system can only lead to communism.

Yes I do believe that paying taxes is our patriotic duty otherwise our country would crumble. Your version of the perfect conservative/republican world automatically becomes Anarchy and therefore I win. Peoplle Have to pay taxes there is no question about this. That is how the potholes in your street gets fixed or when it snows your road gets plowed.

Yes people have to pay taxes. No my potholes aren’t getting fixed and no my streets don’t get plowed. Raising the taxes won’t do anything for the infrastructure because state governments routinely pull money from highway and infrastructure funds to balance out the general budget. Taxes aren’t the answer to infrastructure, actually giving a *edited* is.

And yes there are a lot of people that I am mad at because they make an over satiable amount of money for doing nothing. No matter what you say our country is not how hard you work but who you blow. Those rats sitting in office and congress and senate or even the mayor of your town has most likely taken a bribe or two and weaseled there ways into office.

That I can agree with. The leads of this country should be taken from the average joe population. The fastest way to implement this would be an immediate 2 term limit on congressmen and senators as well as a 10 year limit on supreme court justices and state legislators. That won’t happen so get over it.

I did not disagree with every action Bush has made but I do feel that he is one of the worst presidents we have ever had and I do feel that he did not deserve office. I am glad it was him who was there when 9/11 happened because I do not believe Kerry could have handled it. But I do not believe that he went after the right group of people.

History will prove different but it will take a good 30 years for the real historians to start writing the truth. I think there’s been alot of stuff going on behind the scenes that if brought to light would have helped his short-term legacy. There were several attacks that were prevented, both here and abroad, from our increased intelligence gathering operations and from “torturing” prisoners captured during our “illegal wars”. As much as you might hate to admit it, they are bad people and they do want to kill us by any means necessary. Hell they kill their own people for being a different sect of the religion.

 

I am glad to see liberals finally admit that Kerry would have lead this country down the wrong path after 9/11. I honestly didn’t think any of you would ever admit it.
