Cheney wanted to cut some weapons programs after Reagan won the cold war... Kerry wanted to cut them DURING the cold war! If we had listened to Kerry, the Soviet Union would still be threatening us. |

What balderdash. The only people being threatened were defense contractors sucking up public money.
Most of these cuts would have been eminently sensible at the time, and would have allowed the government to put money into programs that actually made America stronger.

Kerry supporters are blind to the facts. Keep posting this information since I know it really bothers the bleeding hearts. |

I don't see anywhere that he suggested providing troops with spitballs. |

Republican policy has always been to deprive the troops (and the veterans) of needed resources, putting the money instead into pork-barrel weapons systems of little military value.
They have generally weakened America rather than strengthened it. Their preoccupation with missile defense instead of terrorism is what left the nation unprepared for September 11. |

Nice name calling Robert. I guess when you can't win a debate on merit name calling is the way to go.
Class act. |

Come on everyone.
Be sensitive and understanding, name calling is all they have left. (no pun intended)

MJ,
I know I've won when they resort to name calling. It's a badge of honor to be called an ••• hole. Thank you! |

Michael you are one real big know-it-all arent you. Every time you bring something like this up and say "Read the last sentence under the images in my first post", you sound just like a guy I went to high school with who was always right. Even when he was wrong. I am reminded of this exchange in Taming of the Shrew....
PETRUCHIO
Come on, i' God's name; once more toward our father's.
Good Lord, how bright and goodly shines the moon!
KATHARINA
The moon! the sun: it is not moonlight now.
PETRUCHIO
I say it is the moon that shines so bright.
KATHARINA
I know it is the sun that shines so bright.
PETRUCHIO
Now, by my mother's son, and that's myself,
It shall be moon, or star, or what I list,
Or ere I journey to your father's house.
Go on, and fetch our horses back again.
Evermore cross'd and cross'd; nothing but cross'd!
HORTENSIO
Say as he says, or we shall never go.
KATHARINA
Forward, I pray, since we have come so far,
And be it moon, or sun, or what you please:
An if you please to call it a rush-candle,
Henceforth I vow it shall be so for me.
PETRUCHIO
I say it is the moon.
KATHARINA
I know it is the moon.
PETRUCHIO
Nay, then you lie: it is the blessed sun.
KATHARINA
Then, God be bless'd, it is the blessed sun:
But sun it is not, when you say it is not;
And the moon changes even as your mind.
What you will have it named, even that it is;
And so it shall be so for Katharina.
HORTENSIO
Petruchio, go thy ways; the field is won.
Gets tiring after a while especially when you dont attribute. |
