Hussein is not a nice man nor war Saddam but they were better than the
alternative and in a tribal society where there is bad and not as bad you
go with who can control the elements of anarchy.
Don't say the international rights thing can't be put on the back burner either
WWII Germany declares Total War and the Allies were only too happy to
oblige. The time has come to let them know we ain't playing little games any
more and there is an ultimate price to pay.
And it very well could be Israel might have given the West Bank away not
knowing there was oil reserves or the extent of the oil reserves. Much like
we gave the reserves to the Natives here without realizing the value under
the scrub grass

John McCain has the easy position of not being in power but appearing as the alternative to who is in power. He can, and has, gone on the air to demand Obama bomb the **** out of every international crisis that's emerged since 2009. If he were in power, he wouldn't be as trigger happy. I think the difference being McCain would have to fight his inclination to shoot everything whereas Obama fights his inclination to do nothing.

Are you on glue?


Hussein makes Obama a what?


Obama used the same timetable to get out of Iraq that Bush (Cheney) laid out.....was that plan flawed?


You think the Republicans should work with the Dems? Tell John Boehner.


To a Republican Obama is a ****** who is a secret Muslim born in Kenya.


Play the NVA card, his fault for getting caught.....boo hoo hoo.


Oh wow, he smoked dope......gosh darn it all.....so did Ford....and some crack.


John also supported the mess and lies about Iraq, Barrack didn't, Kool-Aid drinker not.

One at a time:

It makes Obama overly sympathetic to the Muslim world.

Watch the link I posted about McCain and Iraq.

McCain is known for his bipartisanism. Obama sics the IRS on Republicans, a move worthy of any good banana republic.

Not many Republicans think Obama is Kenyan. They do think he is a dangerous piece of ****. And they are correct.

Look up what McCain did in Vietnam. Despite torture, he refused to make a propaganda statement to get early release ahead of other prisoners. That requires principles.......a concept Obama simply doesn't understand.

I don't give a **** if Obama smoked dope. But it ain't much of a test of character.

Obama is a complete disaster as President, the worst in American history. And you idiots with 20/20 hindsight forget the world wanted into Iraq........

I think you are dead on.........I also think the world would not be thumbing their noses at the USA if McCain were President.

Okay, one at a time.


His middle name makes him sympathetic.


How so?

John McCain is a nice guy and talks a good bi-partisan game but he hasn't been right about most things in the world. I can only imagine how deep the US would be in conflict right now if he and Sarah were leading the way. The US would probably be invading Iraq right now, side by side with ISIS.

The POTUS could be a Greenie Weenie and the situation would be the same.

Religion has very little to do with this, it's all about trillions upon trillions upon trillions in energy and ensuring little to no resistance on line routes.

When it comes to that kind of money a few million spent on jibrat mercaneries to confuse Westerners and create sect and tribal infighting to distract eyes from the real prize is worth ever penny spent on arms, methamphetamines and heroin.

True, if we were so concerned about human rights it would be spent in central Africa.


The West cares little for human rights, it's about sustaining what we have.

Well it's 2014 now, isn't it? The world wouldn't be thumbing their noses at Gore either. He would have stopped global warming and it would be too damn cold to have your nose exposed like that.

Did I say that was a good choice?


Biden is a goof.....big time.


But I'd have a beer with him.

I'd have a beer with Biden, Obama, McCain, Palin, Bush. Not Romney though. Jesus wouldn't allow it. Not even a coffee. What can you have with Romney? Juice box? Glass of milk?

Romney has magic underwear to protect him from NA Indians. It might work on jibbed up Sunnis too.

How so?

His father and step-father were both Muslims.

He was registered as a Muslim in the Catholic school he attended in Indonesia. (Probably simply because his father was Muslim)

His middle name is not what makes him sympathetic, it is merely evidence of the family history that makes him sympathetic to Islam.

That is pure conjecture on your part.

Your pick a VP for various reasons one being the region from which he is elected
A lot of people thought Truman wasn't much either the problem is the VP seldom
gets the chance to show who and what he is made of at Prez.
Usually I say let the civil war combatants fight it out this is no longer a civil war.
International concerns are at play and they crossed the boarder from Syria now its
international and that is different like when Hitler went into Poland.
Perhaps its time to unleash the weapons and the powers we really have without all
the niceties we've developed and just kick the hell out of them like the final days of
WWII hit hard hit often and take no nonsense at home either
