No, Bill. I'm just being realistic.

No, you are doing exactly what the very cynical Bush machine hoped you
would do.

Even as a Democrat and Liberal, Hillary is expendable. Bush isn't...
well.....

Bill, consider this:
Even if Bush was there for a photo op, the RESULT is still the same.
Some very isolated and lonely American soldiers felt better on a
Holiday far from home.

This one isn't about politics and Bush is busy wasting away our
country in other more useless ways.

We could have saved the taxpayers millions of dollars and made those
guys a lot happier by sending Halle Berry over, or better yet,
bringing them home to their families.

This was ALL about politics - nothing else. Bush wouldn't have even
made the trip at all unless he heard first that Hillary was about to
beat him there.

BB

I think it's great that both of them went. Democrat soldiers got to see
Hillary--one of their political heroes. Republican soldiers ( the
majority :-) ) got to see their Commander-in-Chief and the Leader of
the Republican Party in this tight election year. In both cases, the
troops see that they're appreciated, and not forgotten. The more US
politicians that go, the better, and the more insignificant they are
(smaller targets) the luckier they are, because they get to spend more
time looking around in Iraq.

Ganz, you are an idiot! As soon as ANY President takes
the oath of office he is risking his life. There are all
kinds of people out there who would like to kill any
president for any number of reasons.

True, but only in retrospect. The Pres has no business risking his life,

re-elected.
Nothing more.

He's an idiot for doing it. Just because his protection is good, doesn't
make it perfect.

By that logic he should never fly. If there was any reasonable risk he
wouldn't
have gone. The very fact that he went proves that. The man does very few
positive things, but I'm not so biased that I can't see it when it
happens.
Since nothing bad happened and the troops were cheered, it was a
"positive"
event.

It's no more a waste of money than your monthly
welfare check and certainly far less a waste of
time and space than your bloated, smelly body.

It was a cheap political photo op at
taxpayer expense.

Neal, you are a fool! We all know there's a risk in everyday
life. The point is that he took an unnecessary risk... as much
as I hate him, he is the president.

'Unnecessary' is a word subject to personal interpretation.
You are an overcautious weenie so it stands to reason that
what most people would label an acceptable risk you would
label an unnecessary risk.

Because you haven't risked moving out of Momma's house
doesn't means such a move is unacceptably risky.

Yes, it's open to interpretation. The people who protect
the pres generally don't like "adventures" to dangerous
places, and Iraq is still quite dangerous. Hell, they don't
even like it when the pres travels to texas.

The fact is that you're the weenie. You never leave your
mooring, have no social life, and read meters for a living.
Your big risk is actually revealing anything about yourself
that is anything more than a homophobic reaction when
you feel threatened either by "liberals" or by anyone else
who doesn't meet your twisted logic of what it is to be
human. For all my dislike of Bushy, at least he's a reformed
drunk, a recovering alcoholic; whereas, you are just a timid
little man/boy.

Get ahold of yourself, Ganz. Your homo side is

As I said, when you decide you have nothing else to add,
you become homophobic. Pathetic! Is this because you've
never been with a woman or is it because you're not able
to perform when you are with one?
