Is Obama About to Make a Huge Mistake Over Afghanistan Troop Surge?
Commented Nov 25, 2009 at 19:44:09 in Politics
“Obama will join the long list of fools who have attempted to subdue Afghanistan without success. Despite his eloquent rhetoric he is very much like the idiot Bush that we loved to make fun of.”

The Party Of Death: GOP Says Stop Effort To Halt Health Care Deaths, But Escalate War

“The republicans are truly disgusting and the democrats are not that much better. A third party would be more effective even it wins only 20 percent of the vote because even democratic reforms become so watered down as to be almost worse than doing nothing as is true of this healthcare bill when all is done.”
Get Ready for the Obama/GOP Alliance

“Most presidents love wars as they make them feel more powerful. The american public love wars when we are fighting pushovers like Grenada but when the war drags on and the enemy is tough the fickle public starts turning against it and this is what is happening now. Obama for all his academic stardom is too dumb to realize what a losing proposition this war is. Afghans will defeat the empire and Obama will be thrown out with the trash paving the way for a president even more right wing than he is.”

“The truth is, our smart president is looking dumber by the day. What a disappointment.”

“These recent presidents seem to feel that they have to have a war going on as they seek a second term because, you know, it rallies the folk around the flag, and we can't change ships mid-course blah blah blah. That was the first Bush's problem: timing. The Gulf War victory happened too soon, and a year later people were more concerned with the economy.”

“Bush never lied about what he was. If you disliked that, so be it. Barry has lied from the beginning. He is increasing the troop strength in Afghanistan and supporting the use of mines that blow the limbs off of innocent people.”

How the Media and the GOP Turn Lies Into Zombie Lies: A Health Care Case Study
Commented Nov 23, 2009 at 14:11:35 in Politics
“We live on lies. How many times have you heard the ridulous claim that the United States is the greatest country on earth? How many times have you heard the right wing screaming about the deficit and government waste after having thrown away billions of dollars in Iraq without questioning the obvious corruption of the private christian armies? How many times have you heard the media refer to right wing democrats paid by the insurance lobby as 'moderates'? The whole system is built on lies.”

“Once Obama chose Rahm Emanuel to be his main man it was obvious that we were headed for a right wing pro-war administration and that is exactly what we have. In foreign policy Israel's interests come first which means continuing the disasterous wars in Iraq and Afghanistan while preparing to attack Iran and on the home front old style corrupt politics as usual.”
