So what is your fucking problem with it? It is an embassy - nothing more - nothing less. Take the tin foil hat off and relax. I think most reading this thread also agree that your ranting about this building is idiotic. I am not going to feed your babbling on the topic any longer after this post.


I already stated what the main point of my complaining about the embassy was about, and instead of addressing my point, you just sit there and state "it\'s an embassy so what?"....i guess that one flew right over your head right?, but if you\'re done with it, so am I...

But, we did go it alone essentially and things are working out. If this were World War II you would have already have waved the white flag. Sounds to me like you and Nobama wanted it to fail. Typical thinking for democrats and the rest of the blame America first crew. The surge was the answer and it has worked - even though Osama won\'t admit it.



WWII was a completely different scenario...and i still support our efforts in afghanastan, i just felt iraq was a waste of time, money & soldiers lives...iraq was not an immediate threat at all...and yeah, we had the most troops there but the fact remains that bush went back to the u.n. when s**t started to get hot over there, and i think it\'s kinda disrespectful to other countries that were helping us early on in the war by saying we did all by ourselves, regardless of how irrelevant you think they are,...going it alone to me, means the u.s. doing the job by itself...and clearly we did not...

And when you can walk down the street in iraq without gettin\' yer head blown off or steppin\' on a roadside bomb, that\'s when i\'ll say the surge worked...

Oh so now our troops are brainwashed? The only brainwashed people I know of are Obama supporters. Why don\'t you also eleborate on what Sanchez said - he blamed everyone - Congress included for the handling of the war and when he was the commander things were not going well, but that has changed. I will make the bet here that if Obama loses, you and others will blame racist white people, since no one can not like the Obamessiah\'s policies (however convoluted they are). Also JFK was not that great - which makes an Obama presidency about on par with that of Jimmy Carter.



Maybe brainwash is a bit harsh, but all i\'m sayin\' is that they really have no say when and if they want to question the mission, and to keep the morale up the generals have to say to them that they are doing the right thing,..so yeah it is sort of like brainwashing them....and your very own comments about sanchez proves that guys in the military cannot say anything detrimental towards the efforts in iraq,..only when you are discharged, can you then make such comments.

I\'m not gonna go into the racist thing with obama again, i\'ve explained my position on that in quite a few posts already. Obama & Hillary had the same policies, there\'s no reason for hillary voters to be voting for mccain just because they don\'t like obama...they are votin\' for mccain because they are clearly racist, the end......i\'m not gonna sit here and try to make up some excuse for ignorant folks..and say "no it can\'t possibly be that they are racist"..:rolleyes:

So you are saying any white person who voted for Hillary and doesn\'t vote for Obama is racist and ignorant. Hillary had much more experience than Obama and those voters can see that he lacks substance.  This has nothing, I repeat nothing to do with race - Obama has done nothing noteworthy since being elected to office and lies constantly.  Obama also has made many gaffe\'s in the campaign - "typcial white people, clinging to religion and guns."  I guess you don\'t understand that comments like that have negative consequences.  Once he made those comments, people in this country came out in droves for Hillary, but it was too late.  The real Barry Obama wasn\'t spotted until late in the primary season.  You can not expect people to vote for a candidate that insults them.

You can not refute the fact that McCain has worked with both parties in Congress and has substance to his resume.  Also Obama\'s and Hillary\'s plans for taxes were not identical at all.  They were completely opposite and Hillary\'s were more in line with McCain\'s policies.

He didn\'t say white people,..and if you listened to his comment,..all he was saying was that people are so frustrated with the economy that people are keeping busy doing things they like...fishing, hiking,excercising etc, etc...clinging to their guns (a hobby) & faith...what\'s wrong with reading the bible when you\'re goin\' thru hard times?...that is all he was saying....and if the people of PA are too stupid to understand that, then they don\'t deserve to be votin\' in the first place.....he even apologized for it stating it was a misunderstanding,..and do you think that he would purposely want to insult anybody?

Obama has reached across to work with conservatives as well, what i will agree with you on is the tax policies....i do know there are some differences there, and in that aspect i really don\'t know who\'s is better,..you bein\' a McCain fan, i know you\'ll say his is better, but i haven\'t really looked at both of their tax policies in full detail like that.

Quote from: Obama
Obama is drawing a new round of criticism for his comments on a Philadelphia radio sports program yesterday in which he said his grandmother is a "typical white person" who has fears about black men.

Quote from: Obama
"And it\'s not surprising then that they get bitter, they cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren\'t like them or anti-immigrant sentiment or anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations," Obama said.

He did say the above and no he didn\'t misspeak.  He was not talking about people keeping busy with hobbies... :rofl:  It is amazing how uniformed you are.

Please point out to where Obama has "reached across to work with conservatives".  He certainly hasn\'t in the Senate.

^^^Hmmm...seems like McCain is thinking about raising taxes after all...

"In a March 16 interview with Fox News\' Sean Hannity, McCain said he would cut taxes where possible, and not raise them.

"Do you mean none?" Hannity asked.

"None," McCain replied."

WASHINGTON - Republican presidential candidate John McCain\'s signal that he may be open to a higher payroll tax for Social Security, despite previous vows not to raise taxes of any kind, is drawing sharp rebukes from conservatives.


Uhm...you did say that Obama was a liar right?...speak up now i can\'t hear you!!...:D...you were the one that also stated it was dumb for anybody to raise taxes with the shape the economy is in, and yet McCain is open to raising taxes.....Obama is raisin\' taxes on folks who make $250,000 & up..while McCain is seriously thinking about raising taxes on SS...and that effects everybody...McCain is flip-flopping all over the place...

You\'re takin\' sound bites and piecing them together as if he was directing his grandmother comments to the people of PA....and let\'s be honest here, if we\'re going to have a serious conversation about race, he was just being honest about the typical white person....meaning that they see black folks in a negative light, now that is not saying that the typical white person is racist,...it\'s just saying how the typical white person views black folks.

the clinging to guns & all that, goes back to them bein frustrated about the economy...and i admit, he could\'ve re-worded some of it a bit better, but he already apologized for it & it wasn\'t like he was trying to purposely insult anybody...

Did you also know that Obama agrees with our current foreign policy?

That was the whole point of this thread.  To point out that these candidates are Republican and Democrat in name only, they do not represent the true policies of their party.  The outcome of the election will have no bearing on my quality of life.

I found it ironic that they said Ron Paul was not in line with the republican view.  This is entirely wrong.  He\'s not in line with the neoconservative view, he\'s a classic constitutionalist republican.

I do know that the bush admin. sent a convoy over to talk to the iranians, shortly after Obama repeatedly in his speeches stated that there has to be a direct dialogue of tough diplomacy, and i also heard of "time horizons"....:rolleyes: as mentioned by the bush admin. in regards to iraq..after constantly stating that they were not open to a timeline of any matter, but with Obama stating that he would have the troops out in 16 months,..now all of a sudden, bush & co want "time horizons".....

Seems to me that the current administration agrees with Obama\'s foreign policies...and McCain states Obama doesn\'t have the experience? People in his own party are taking points from Obama\'s playbook...y\'know that guy with "0" experience.


And i agree with everything else you stated, anybody that you put in the WH isn\'t going to make a huge impact on our lives for the next 4 - 8 years, but i do think that the person whoever is selected dictates on some level what direction the country will be going in.

Doesn\'t affect me.  And raising one tax is much different from raising the capital gains tax, etc.  I don\'t have time to teach you economics.  The king of flip floppers happens to be Obama.  Does the 2nd Amendment ruling by the Supreme Court ring a bell?  Obama was all for banning handguns in DC, but once the Supreme Court ruled against the ban he was all for the ruling.

Bush sent a convoy to Iran?  Bwahahahahahahaha!!!!!!  :rofl:

Obama is all for appeasement and no action.  He thinks he can reason with Putin - bwahahahaha.  You know if he can get hustled by a German reporter I wonder what heads of other state can do to him.

I\'d also like to note again that I\'m not a big McCain fan, just tired of the blind followers of Obama who think he will save us from the brink of destruction.

Also, this is a review on a book I\'m reading by Mr. Ron Paul, I highly recommend that you all read it.

I think I am going to buy a copy of his book. Many of the things noted in your link are very similar to my views.

I fear that he is going to be "attacked" from every side because of his ideas though.
