Your childlike faith in Bush is touching. Fact is we were not the kind of country to torture ANYBODY until recently.

So, as a brief reply to your weak straw man argument I will remind you of the glaringly obvious fact that we are 7/8 done with the Bush years, and none of your paranoid fantasies have come true.

Lastly, I would suggest that you delete this entire entry and all the comments made so far because, frankly, this all makes you look like a fucking asshole.

“Your childlike faith in Bush is touching.”

Too bad I never mentioned Bush.

Obsess much?

It was our optimism

Clearly you are not optimistic. I saw your Veteran’s Day “tribute” in which you heap scorn on those you disagree with while using a photo of a disfigured Iraq war veteran to further your political, cynical argument…

You are a selfish little turd with no manners. And a hypocrite. You’re so lame that I can’t tell if you are maybe even a righty pretending to be a lefty just to make the left look like a bunch of ignorant assholes. And, as I point out above, your site is infested with liars.

Living through Chuck Norris will get you nowhere, slappy.

And Global Warming deniers are, as it pertains to science, the opposite of skeptical. They’ll latch on to anything to support their cause.

Your childlike faith in Bush is touching. Fact is we were not the kind of country to torture ANYBODY until recently.

We led the world through the strength of our moral character not because we had more bombs. It was our optimism, our eagerness to apply brainpower to thorny questions facing humanity that made us strong.

Your comments give me the impression that you know nothing of America.

To you it is “radical” to torture a terrorist even if it will save countless civilian lives?!?! I think you are radically idealistic.

In the entire history of mankind, it is YOU with the radical views! You are the one who is so weak that just a few hundred years ago you would not have survived to even pass on your genetic material. You are the one so softened up and comfortable that you don’t have the sense to recognize humanity’s ills, human nature, or when aggression is warranted.

You ask:

“and what happens if you are defined as the terrorist one day for diagreeing with someone who does not like you? Will torture still be ok then? I asked my neigbhor a WWII vet about this and he disagrees with you, if he was younger he’d probably be less civil then I am becuase he feels very strongly about this.”

To begin with, I doubt that after 1) reading my comment, you then processed to 2) discuss it with your neighbor, and finally 3) get back to this blog and reply in under 12 minutes!

Secondly, I know for damn sure that I will not be tortured because someone disagrees with me. That is not how this country has ever been, or ever will be. There are too many strong, principled Americans with large, loaded guns who will not stand for that kind of injustice. You clearly believe in such a world, and you see the US as that kind of a country. You have this ill-conceived and ignorant notion for a precise reason: as described above, you are a weak, pathetic creature with no real moral compass and no ability to muster u even a modicum of aggression with which to counter-attack even the most vile of enemies.

The fact that I disagree with you, and that you consider ME the radical, is nothing but an illustration of your own detachment from reality.

If you want to talk, do so. Please, stop lying about your conversations with elderly veterans. If you are a regular poster at this site you deserve to be ostracized for your embellishing. It discredits your argument and this entire site.

This sounds like a radical and extremist point of view….and what happens if you are defined as the terrorist one day for diagreeing with someone who does not like you? Will torture still be ok then? I asked my neigbhor a WWII vet about this and he disagrees with you, if he was younger he’d probably be less civil then I am becuase he feels very strongly about this.

How’s that going?

PS: global warming is crap and I doubt you have half the brain needed to actually understand the science surrounding the issue, judging by your childish dislike of 50% of the country.

PPS: I think that the notion of torturing a terrorist to prevent mass civilian casualties is O.K…you, on the other sounds, sound like a big whiney baby

Does the Delaware Democratic Party believe in the common good?

(I’m going to have to ask for some evidence.)
