No, moron, America is the greatest nation because of our economic power. But our economic power wasn't created by morons like you.
John Locke and our founding fathers would disagree. People like you have destroyed what they created.

Yeah, you know what they would think. Right. HA!

It is the Democrats who are destroying this country. They want to turn us into a bunch of socialist pussies.

This is true, but they're going to say that regardless. And without basis. It's when they look at us and think that torture is okay that I get irritated.

Quote:
Abu Ghraib and the Swift Boaters are two of THE WORST stories this year. Non-events. Nonsense. Rubbish. Crap. Hand-wringing over nothing (what? you think military jails through history have EVER been torture free?).

You have to be pretty fucking naive to think Abu Ghraib is the first or last time that shit will happen, or that we don't do a whole lot worse... Just what do you think we're doing with the high level captured Queda? You think we're not thumb-screwing and elctroding the piss out of those guys? Shit, we're probably force feeding them drugs we wouldn't test on rats. If you think we can cure Abu Ghraib, you're hopelessly idealistic and debating with you is pointless. At best, we can only hope to minimize such behavior. It is war, you know.
Abu Ghraib is NOT a non-event. Or at least it shouldn't be. Torture does NOT just happen. It is NOT to just be expected.

I'm not so idealistic as to think that abuses will not occur. Hell, we can't keep Americans safe in our own jails, let alone Iraqis. But this came from the top down. This administration has gone out of its way to find a way to torture, to bend the rules, to break the rules.

Like many attorneys, I'm fairly familiar with the interogation techniques used by American police departments that meet Constitutional muster. They are very effective. Very, very effective. Why are we screwing around with cattle prods and dogs?

Someone has to say no. Someone has to say that anal rape of a prisoner by a guard is not okay. If that makes me hopelessly idealistic, that's just sad.

Scientists probably could predict the next earthquake accurately, too, but the Bush brothers are preventing the scientists from getting the word out about that too.
The fact that you responded to a really bad hatchet job impersonation of Ty as a straight post pretty much says it all.

Wrong. But who gives a fuck anyway? These guys have as much right to tell their story as pussy gigalo Kerry has to tell his. Only difference is that their story wasn't played to torture our POWs as Kerry's words were used on our POWs!

The evil genius/evil idiot debate continues. I'm voting idiot.

Next week at the RNC, odds are better than not that some of the speakers may talk about things like "Founding Fathers," and "history" and similar scaaaaaary things. (As an aside, they're discussed in significant detail in things called "books.")

If mention of these mystic things make you very dizzy, don't panic. If you can't reach the big lithium salt lick hanging in the corner, just lie down on the floor, set the channel to FNC. All will return to normal.

No, you don't get me. Regardless of whether that is Hank posting or not, Ty really thinks exactly like that.

Don't you have an appointment for a vasectomy? If not, make one.

Abu Ghraib is a non event because NO TORTURE HAPPENED idiot. Panties on head and scary dogs aren't torture.

Geez, only a huge pussy would call that torture.
