And do you really think a socialist (or anything significantly further left than us) government would regulate [abortions] LESS? Strangely enough, Canada doesn't have any laws dealing with abortion on the books. They were all struck down in the 80s and not replaced. |

I'd rather see him impeached cause GWB is screwing over our country and is making more flipflops on the Iraq war than EVER. It reminds me on his campaign for 2004 presidency where he was accusing KERRY of flipflopping. ![]() ![]() He's changing the rhetoric of even the 'insurgents' to 'fundementalist extremist' cause the opinion of the war in Iraq is changing. He's trying to get us to support the war now when it was a sham in the friggin first place! Any sane individual would acknowledge that he's changed his priorities and his mission statement about Iraq at LEAST 3 times. Worse yet, he's screwing over our military by stretching them too thin. Hey, I support our troops. But I sure as heck don't support the war. ![]() Whatever happened to the nuance that liberals were so proud of? Everyone attacks Bush for being some simple-minded fool who equates all Muslims with terrorists and thus evil. But yet liberals the world over simple-mindedly equate a person whose policies you dislike with a facist bent on enslaving mankind. Umm... ![]() It is posisble, ya know, to oppose Bush and not think he is going to destroy demcracy and install himself as dictator for life. |

Patroklos - yes Bush is. As in stretching them too thin. Want all the statements from Shinseki, you know the general who had the guts to publically predict everything that has happened in Iraq post-end of hostilities? You know, Bush's statement about Iraq over a year ago. More Americans have died in combat since that statement.
We cannot secure the borders with Syria, or Iran. We cannot garrison many of the cities we conduct military ops in, letting the militants back in as soon as the combat ops are over. We are pulling troops from deployments all of the world, to serve in Iraq, and recruitment is falling short of expectations, and we are having to refuse military personnel scheduled retirements and leaving after terms of enlistment due to these personnel shortages. Oh, and we are deploying National Guard troops with inadequate training and lead in time. The Secretary of Defense is driven to state "As you know, you go to war with the Army you have. They’re not the Army you might want or wish to have at a later time." Not stretched thin my a**. But Patroklos is right. We should have an income tax surcharge for the troops, to pay for the equipment they should have, to give them realistic good salaries in combat zones, and to pay decent and realistic compensation to the widow(er)s and children who have lost parents. ![]() |
