strategy will have been responsible for the change.

Wonderful rationalization for upcoming backpedaling, but b.s



You obviously don't know much about negotiations...particularly
negotiations in which you hold all the cards.


The sort of political arrogance your side exhibits is what is leading to
its downfall


Downfall? Republicans have won the last two Presidential elections, have
added seats in the House and Senate in 2000, 2002, and 2004, and have
increased the number of Governors in each of those same years.

You better look up the definition of "downfall".

So, Bertie, tell us all about the titty clubs you visited while you were
defending American from saggy breasts.


Now there's an idea. Bert could help the recruiting program. He could
list all his activities while in the USMC R and suck those poor
impressionable high school kids in.

duty there are heroic. Each one
killed, wounded, or separated on multiple extended tours from home and
family is a national tragedy. Screw the war, but honor the troops. It
is possible to do both at once.
People who feel that we must despise the troops because they are
forced
to serve in a bogus war as well as people who feel that we cannot
respect and value the troops without cheering for the war itself are
all
wrong.



And a pox on all of those who are making a monetary profit off this
war.



Does that include the businesses which are able to turn profits only
because oil hasn't hit $100/barrel?


Are you referring to the price Bush and the neocons hope their actions
will lead to?



I'm referring to the price that oil would climb to if we never went into
Iraq, withdrew from Saudi Arabia, and let bin Laden overthrow the Saudi
royals and control all of the oil in the Middle East.



Climb? It would be lower.


Really? If bin Laden controlled the Middle East oil, it would lower oil
prices?

I'm fascinated to hear your reasoning.


His reasoning is simple, you have no idea whether or not bin Laden
would control mid east oil. Pure speculation. And ignorance.

You have nowhere to go but...down.


Sure we do. Can you say "filibuster-busting supermajority"?

I KNOW I KNOW!!!!

You served with Dudley Doright.

Serving with him had to be hazardous duty.

Serving as a uniformed meter reader in some cities is more dangerous
than serving stateside as a marine.


In Bert's defense he is exactly the same as me - a former Marine. The
fact that he didn't have the chance to kill people and break stuff
isn't relevant.

Sorry. I've been reading this comment for a while now and felt it was
time to speak up.

Carry on.
