Why is it that you simply cannot except the fact that you bought a false bill of goods...were duped. You're the only one left who can't realize it. Even the people who've said it have back tracked, yet you still insist on proving a negative?

Why...

This war is just a continuation of what baby pants Clinton couldn't do.  This was bound to happen the tragedies have been going on for a very long time.  Some of this could have been stopped I think if we would have put our foot down in Mogadessu.  Clinton is a frickin pussycat and I am glad him and his pathetic dog Al Gore are out!!

It is really sad to hear others complaining about the war, so what your telling me is that the people who were murdered on 9/11 deserved in someway??  Cause you know all of them had something to do with the animalistic ways of the Iraqi's!  HUMMMMMM.  

It's funny though how the Iraqi's and Somalian's hust hate our country yet this is where a lot of them come for vactions and oh yes health care............MAYO CLINIC!!  Yet you people agree with this not to defend ourselves.  They choose to LIVE that way.  A funny note on that is that when they are in the big bad USA they do everything against their religion because and this is their reason..............this is America, this is Freedom, I can do what I want.????????  Yet they want to destroy us!!  That my friends is what you call hyprocisy.  They deserve freedom but we don't that is just complete and pure insanity.  They are absolutely asinine!!

We are trying to help build the cities back up and what do they do KILL four American contractors. WHY? ......cause they are a waste of skin........they cannot comprhend anything that might accomplish them.  HI, WE ARE HERE TO HELP YOU BUILD YOUR CITIES.......their response to this BANG BANG your dead!!  Such freakin dense, brainless so called humans they make me so mad that...........AHHHHHHHHHHHH :angry:  :angry:  

I have a cousin over there who is experiencing it first hand as a lieutenant.  It is utter chaos and the absurdities of these people is just WACKED!!!!

Don't you know that his 8 years ended nearly 4 years ago. Bush was elected, now we are moving on to a new electon...LOL

It is really sad to hear others complaining about the war, so what your telling me is that the people who were murdered on 9/11 deserved in someway??---->YES! That's it! Because the president went after Iraq, who DIDN'T do 9/11, The victims of the attack deserved it, you're a genious.  
Cause you know all of them had something to do with the animalistic ways of the Iraqi's!  HUMMMMMM.---->So, I guess no one's informed you that Iraq didn't do it yet...LOL  

It's funny though how the Iraqi's and Somalian's hust hate our country yet this is where a lot of them come for vactions and oh yes health care............MAYO CLINIC!!----> This is the product of our educational system folks... Somalians? Mayo Clinic? LOL
Yet you people agree with this not to defend ourselves.----> Because we think Bush went after the wrong party,that somehow means we don't want to defend ourselves? huh?  They choose to LIVE that way.----->Who chooses to live in what way?
A funny note on that is that when they are in the big bad USA they do everything against their religion because and this is their reason..............this is America, this is Freedom, I can do what I want.??---->Oh yes! The Iraq people are world travelers and come to America for fun tours all the time!

Yet they want to destroy us!!---->Who is they? El Quida did 9/11. Don't you remember?

That my friends is what you call hyprocisy.---->That's called mindless rambling from a young woman who is so confused that even I'M embarrassed! LOL
They deserve freedom but we don't that is just complete and pure insanity.  They are absolutely asinine!!----->After reading that confused mess...I'm insane...now I know how Jessica Simpsons hubby feels...LOL

We are trying to help build the cities back up and what do they do KILL four American contractors. WHY?------>Because we are foreigners. They are brothers. They may fight amongst themselves for power, but will both turn on us just like you would.

......cause they are a waste of skin........------>You hate what you can't even understand!
they cannot comprhend anything that might accomplish them. ------>I can't comprehend any thought in your head.

HI, WE ARE HERE TO HELP YOU BUILD YOUR CITIES.......------>Is that why we're really there? I thought you said it was to pay them back for 9/11?  ???

their response to this BANG BANG your dead!!----->That's what happens when bodies start slapin'---Tone Loc  :blush:

Such freakin dense, brainless so called humans they make me so mad that...........AHHHHHHHHHHHH ----->They make you mad because they don't simply obey your desire to see them follow the American way?  Those bastards don't want to be American...how dare them!



I have a cousin over there who is experiencing it first hand as a lieutenant.  It is utter chaos and the absurdities of these people is just WACKED!!!!---->Oh yes, it's obsurd that other cultures don't want to roll over for some  foriegn occupiers isn't it?

*I can see with our school system churning out fine young thinkers like yourself...our future is in fine shape. No worries...

Compulsory National Service?  I'm for it!  Men AND women.  We are wearing out our people in the military with constant deployments--and not just talking about Iraq and Afghanistan--there was Bosnia, Haiti, Somalia, Panama for the Army,  they Air Force has been constantly patrolling (and getting fired at) in Iraq and Bosnian no-fly zones for a dozen years, the Navy, shrunk to less than half its former size in number of ships, finds it hard to put together enough carrier battle groups as far as ships and sailors--and the sub crews are on constant deployment.  We are leaning too much on the Guard and Reserve--they have become de-facto front-line troops.  This constant deployment has hurt morale.

Even without active wars and deployments, I think universal compulsory national service is a good idea.  For most young adults, it is a chance to see the real world--not only a chance to see the rest of the world and how it lives, but a chance to see how the real world operates--outside of home, high school, or college.

Compulsory national service does not neccessarily mean military service--there ARE other options to serve.

National Service provides a common experience for the nation--one that everyone shares.  In a country increasingly made up of people that have never GIVEN to the country (except for confiscatory taxes), it can be the glue that binds the country together.  National Service can be the great leveler--if there are NO EXCEPTIONS, rich or poor end up in the same unit, and the poor man has as much chance to command as the rich.

A separate topic, but related to the one above, is that with common experience, the country might be more unified.  If EVERYONE knew what military life was like, they might be more insightful when it comes to matters of deploying troops, or issues that affect not only the military, but the country.

National Service can be the basis for a great educational program--perhaps one year of college for every year spent in the military--perhaps some fraction of that for less hazardous duty.  There should be NO reason, if this is adopted, for anyone not to have the education they want.

The U.S. fared well during the time of compulsory military sevice--WW II is perhaps the best example.  Other countries--Israel, Switzerland, Sweden, Norway come to mind--have done well.  We ought to consider it.

You actually believe they were contractors that were there to help? They were mercenaries guarding a convoy.

You're right on Jim, national service would give our youth a time to grow up. It would get them away from home and commuties, perhaps they would then find out how good home looks! Discipline would be taught and how important it is to work as a team to survive. If national service is tied to some form of educational reward maybe it would be easier for lots of youth to get some form of education. I know that we all are alot different after spending a few years away from the area we grew up in. A lot of these men and women would also have a good role model to follow that isn't available to them at home.

Boy, isn't THAT the truth! And it's revealing what it says about those IgNeRant YoKaLs back "home".

You're insane. The draft is political suicide. Why is it that America insists on becoming less free every year. Everyone has a great idea how others should behave and live, so lets make a law, forcing others to do what we want. It's totally unamerican. It's a sickness.

How about this basic concept that we started with. You mind yer bidness and I'll mind my bidness.

You leave me alone and I'll leave you alone.
