Rob,

I do believe I see some of our local trolls depicted there!

Speaking of which, a message:

Lead, Follow, or Get the Frack out of the Way.

I think I hear a Battlestar Galactica fan talking…

The purpose of government shouldn’t be to do good, but simply to refrain from doing evil.

great find, rob

I like it!

Lets not forget that a soldier’s burden starts when politicians fail to excert their superiority over other nations. As a soldier I know what it’s like to have to enforce my country’s political views outside of our borders, with acceptable collateral damage.  Who knows, perhaps I’ll have to kill your sons next.  By the way, lead follow or what????  What do you know about leading?  Enough said.

They don’t know much, Captain.  One thing they apparently don’t know is that the soldiers wouldn’t have to deal with any of it except for the insane war Bush got them into that is unwinnable and will cause untold damage to them, their families, and this country (not to mention Iraq)...already has.

Rob,

Oh h3ll yes.  Best fracking show on TV.

But “Lead, follow, or get the F out of the way” predates me by a long shot.  It’s a piece of advice which our trolls fail to understand.  Of course, given the illiberal in incomplete eduation thereof, this is hardly surprising.

You should (if you have not already) read this piece over on Strategy Page.  Times they are a changing!

It’s Rodney, resident pseudointellectual who, despite his claim to education eliteness, continues to present himself as something out of an 18th century bad novel verbally.

Rodney, I’m not about to get out of the way.  And you’re not man enough to make me.

And shave off that silly beard, willya?  It’s disgusting.

How exactly is the best way to exert our “superiority over other nations?”

1. Pandering to their lies and repeated refusals to comply with weapons inspectors’ demands to carry out their side of the deal?

2. Run to the U.N. and let them dictate when and where it is allowable to depose a dictator who knowingly slaughtered his own people?

Seeing comments like this only solidifies my belief that there are those out there that would oppose war at any cost. Does anyone else really think that a man who repeatedly denied U.N. inspectors into their country, perpetrated the biggest worldwide scandal in known history, knowingly associated with terrorists, not to mention gassing thousands of his own people was just really misunderstood and needed a hug?

(i know diane does, but those of you operating in reality bear with me here)

You stated it was the government who failed the people by not standing up to Saddam and Al-Quida. I believe this war is a resounding example of your error in thinking this.

BTW, how about we stop allowing any Iraq policy discussions to be diffused by ignorant “bush lied, people died” “HALIBURTON” and bullshit like that. Even if you are delusional enough to think that engaging in this kind of one track thinking actually helps America move foward as a country in the wake of this war, at least try to every once in a while throw out an original thought as to where we should go from here.

I am sick and tired of any post written here degenerating to a “did not/ did too” 3rd grade agruement about why we are in Iraq. The reality is, like it or not, we are there. Deal with it. If you really want to be taken seriously, how about providing something more than a temper tantrum because the president made a decision you didn’t agree with.

Maybe then people will take you seriously.

(That is, until the next time you condemn our troops for murder before their trial while staying silent about the fact that our enemies behead, torture, and rape anyone who does not agree with them).

And Dhiane wonders why oh why does everyone pick on her?

Could it be because she is a snotty leftist who attacks people in a personal way?

diane: All personal attack, all narcissism, all the time.

And Dhiane wonders why oh why does everyone pick on her?

Could it be because she is a snotty leftist who attacks people in a personal way?

Or, as you suggest with your non-personal-attacking nickname for her, is it because she’s a terrorist?

Davey, dhimmi’s are not terrorists.

Try to keep up.

Surely I’m not the first to note that what our enemies do to those who disagree with them, is the same thing, in a more rhetorical sense, that Diane does to those who disagree with her.  Our psychologically incontinent dhimmi is nothing more than a rhetorical terrorist wannabe, who uses virulent ad hominem attacks instead of ammonium nitrate and nails dipped in rat poison.

Dave, they’re as duplicitous as they come; and selectively hateful.  They dish it out but they cry like mama’s babies when someone hands it back.  I say they should be able to take the heat or get out of the kitchen. 

Lead, follow, or get the frack out of the way.

Okay, Rodney, I’ll lead.  And I tell you to get out of the way.  Iraq wants us out of their country. Colin said we’d leave when they asked us to.

Get out of the way of progress.

Ah yes,

That is a matter of foreign relations between the Executive and a foreign government (in this case, Iraq’s).  Congress’s role in the matter is Constitutionaly limited to the Advice and Consent of the Senate.  Your role is that of electing your Senators.

I’m sure you know how to reach senators Babs and DiFi.

That is a matter of keeping one’s word.  Something this country is very bad at.

(Yes, I know the two ‘girls’ here in Calif.  Call their offices and complain regularly for their stand on Israel and on the war on Iraq.)

The terrorists, on the other hand, keep their word when they promise to “kill all the Infidels”.  Very virtuous.

diane says, One thing they apparently don’t know is that the soldiers wouldn’t have to deal with any of it except for the insane war Bush got them into that is unwinnable and will cause untold damage to them, their families, and this country (not to mention Iraq)...already has.

While you are on your anti-American and anti-soldier rant, we are winning the war.

Iraq wants us out of their country.

Of course they do. And in due time, we’ll get out.

That is a matter of keeping one’s word. Something this country is very bad at.

Aren’t you the one who said you were leaving? Why yes, you are. It looks like your word is shit diane.

True.  The soldiers would have to deal with terrorist activity here at home instead.  Then, the lefties could try their appeasement strategy and get us all killed or subjugated under sharia law.  That would be so much better, wouldn’t it?
