They always have been. I think it's like a private joke, "Let's
treat what Sara Palin says seriously just to **** them off."

No matter how destructive it is.

I think the Democrats should parade all the paranoia and scare tactics
the Republicans have trotted out every time the Dems try to improve
life for the general public.

We've have seen the end of civilization several times over if their
sky-is-falling predictions came true.
The current GOP insanity is similar to the "sky is falling" Democratic
tirades about Bush.
The sky was falling during Bush. We were spilling money and American
blood on a hunt for oil.

The trick is ignoring all of it and looking at the real problems, like
the $.11,787,062,206,713.50 debt
http://www.treasurydirect.gov/NP/BPD...pplication=np\
is reporting right now.
Understood. Why are we so concerned about it when it's spent on our
own welfare but blind to the debt when it's for a bull**** war?

Two sides of same mouth?


You have never heard me say one good thing about any of these stupid
wars ... since before the 1991 war. I warned any one who would listen,
that one would be another Vietnam in 1991 ... and I was wrong by 8
years ... so far. We are 18 years and counting in Iraq. It was only 10
years between the Gulf of Tonkin and the helicopters on
the roof.


But...wars keep our boys in uniform and our military-industrial complex
cooking...



And fighting wars is all the right wing Republicans think government
does right. Funny, huh?
