Obama's Unavoidable Cure for the Afghanistan Cancer

Commented Dec 02, 2009 at 19:06:45 in World

“Hmmmm....i­t seems the greatest danger was in allowing Pakistan to have a Nuke of their own. Otherwise we would not be so squeamish about Alqaida or taliban getting a hold of it. Pakistan is alot more scary than Afghanistan at the moment...
What it we nuked their bombs out in Pakistan, so they dont pose any more risks? That could send a nice message warning to Iran as well...tha­t we are able to do this. Pakistan seems to be in too fragile and messy a state to be responsible for having a nuke in the first place!
ok guys...its just a thought!”

“People who lightly suggest the use of nuclear weapons against other people are either insane or completely irresponsible. Or both.”

“Hmmm, the US has far more nukes than any other country, and we are constantly threatening to use them. What if we nuke ourselves, so we don't pose any more risks? That could send a nice message to ourselves, that we are able to do this. OK guys ... it's just a thought!”

“This is the danger in liberal hawks. Conservative hawks rattle their sabers and are all for attacking our enemies where they live.

Liberal hawks are all for wars of liberation to free the oppressed from their chains. They believe the United States can "allow" other countries to do something or not.

Either way soldiers die.

Obama believes the Afghans will be trained and take over their own duties. This is a fantasy, not a hypothesis. They don't get the type of people to take these jobs who are willing to risk their lives as a cop or soldier. I'm sure they are as courageous as anyone but their lives are at risk daily. Thats alot to ask.”

“Allowing? What could we have done to stop them? We didn't even know what AQ Khan was up to until later. The notion the US is all-knowing is and always has been a myth.”

“I think the swiss have every right to ban minarets. They have no place in swiss architecture , and giving more rights to muslims is a dangerous road. If they dont like to live in Switzerland they are free to go worship and live in their wonderful islamic countries where there truly is no freedom.”

“you would think that banks who got the bail out from tax payers, now should be obliged to refinance tax payers' mortgages, to their present value, so they can keep their homes. Where is the law to protect tax payers in this deal?”

“Arent we expecting too much from Palin? The nitwitt can only spit out lies or total nonsence from her mouth as that is all her brain can produce...­.why do we even bother to care what she says anymore?
Important is that the left block all her comments with the truth, so she does not get away with it. Make her the laughng stock she already has established for herself.”

“unfortunately therein lies the dilemma, they dont.
Unless its like the DMV, follow the rules or get fined, people do not change their ways., unless they are forced to do so, by the government or their own wallet.”

drklassen replied on Nov 25, 2009 at 15:23:31

“There's a thought---the wallet. How about we stop ALL subsidies to oil/coal/fossil fuels NOW. And force those industries to entirely clean up after themselves. Once the true cost of bringing their product to market is borne by the public, we'll see how economical it is to build solar and wind farms.”

I've watched Beck and hannity and they are both totally off their rockets.No­thing but hate and propaganda go for the GOP. Aganst everything and anything Obama does, its almost laughable if it werent so pityful. Makes all Republicans look really bad! and embarassingly idiotic and selfish.”

“Having more attention brought to these concentration camps for animals called animal factories is a good thing, and the government should shut them down as far as I'm concerned. I rather eat less meat, and pay more for humanely raised pasture fed happy healthy animals that can enjoy the sunshine and not suffer before being humanely euthanized.
Sure, you protecters of big business (most GOP) will have a beef with me, but you cannot hide or justify cruelty behind your greed for profit, so I dont care to read your rebuttal.
People should also care what they eat, this cheap meat is also dirty unhelathy and full of antibiotics and whatever else they pump those poor animals with to keep them alive. Animals have feelings too and deserve some respect and better treatment! We dont even treat hard core criminals in jail as bad!”

sunnybunny replied on Nov 24, 2009 at 15:57:01

“Have you ever heard of the concept that when you eat an animal, you ingest it's spirit? Think of the implications of eating animals raised under the conditions that are a factory farm. Maybe thats part of whats wrong with people.”

“True , but I think the person was inferring to some extreme gay rights bashers who actually turned out to be closeted homos like Haggert, and many others . There seems to be a trend that some of the most hateful people are actually struggling against their own feelings.
Of course, most normal heterosexuals do support gay rights as human rights.Tho­se who dont are usually messed up due to their indoctrina­tions., religious mostly.”

“great idea, although my first reaction was: Will the parents of the gay bashing kids rise up and have a teaparty against Stewart? Knowing these people , nothing is impossible!
already woke up this morning gagging over the news that catholic bishops are now also interfering with abortion rights in our HC reform , thus delaying further the bill from passing. Why dont they mind their own business? They can tell their catholics what to do,(if they bother to listen) but they have no right to tell others what to do, especially forcing their antiquated dogmas towards women. and sex in general on non catholics. This is not a catholic bill its a health reform bill for all.AND if others want to "sin" its their right to do so! And maybe we and other fellow catholics dont all look at women's choice as a sin, but a dutiful human right . Free speech, free choice! free will!”

MM216 replied on Nov 20, 2009 at 12:24:57

“I also agree about what you wrote about the Cath. Bishops. Their great "love of the fetus" supercedes their compassion for humanity..­.and for the living, IMO”

MM216 replied on Nov 20, 2009 at 12:20:26

“I agree!
These people who promote gay bashing are ones who most likely are spurred on by the fire-branding hatred and bigotry of Beck, Limbaugh, Hannity, etc...”

“I heard he is also the reason we have so many bums on the street, because homes for the homeless was a waste of money according to this fine gentleman.
Also he started the de regulation that resulted in several of our financial break downs and now obama gets blamed for it becuae he has to FIX the economy in a hurry or we fall into a depression and all you people can do is criticize and criticize , but offer no solutions of your own. Starting expensive wars while giving tax breaks for the rich, does not sound like a good plan to me....but your beloved RR probably would have agreed on that too. These are people that do not relate to the struggles of the common man....nei­ther does Palin, by the way. She is all out to con these people just to further her a career and cash in as much as possible. People are just dumb and get conned so easily its laughable if it weren't also dangerous.”
