Thread: OMG! Barack Obama's VP choice to be text-messaged to supporters

[QUOTE=min0 lee;1812819]Please, no one knew that for sure.

Please, I'm a dummy. Trust me. Just having fun here.
I've got myself out of a lot heat by talking, wheter it's a cop about to give me a ticket or an angry group trying to kick my ass.

Maybe we should have made that threat and bomb them into submission like we did to Japan, heck they can't compete with us like Russia could......oh wait, the terrorist didn't originate from that country, oops.

you're right, we didn't know for sure. yet we did have channels for negotiation every time a crisis arose. tell me how do we communicate with bin laden? and if we were able to, how could we negotiate with him? we can't on both counts. negotiation with these terrorists is not going to work. im sorry, but it is not. no amount of talking will work. i think the last 50 years of "negotiations" in israel shows this.

im all for bombing the heck out of them. just dont hit a civilian...wait, which ones are the civilians?

To go along with the thinking here I would bomb the whole country killing everyone even the woman and children and even the dogs....why not? they are Muslims anyway right? This way we can do what Hitler failed to do with the Jews.
This opinion will fly with the other people here.

But in beating the shit (Insert any oil country) out of them then maybe they will give us whoever we are looking for...he's probably dead already.

First off, that's bs.. nobody wants innocent people to die.

The anti-oil people really crack me up. You talk as if oil isn't our lifeline. It's a shame, but for the forseeable future it is. We can't operate without it.

Just casualties of war......

We should look for an alternate source of fuel, being dependant of other countries is going to make us weaker. It already is anyway so fuck it, let's keep going the way we are now.
I like those Hybrid cars by the way, may trade in my gas guzzler in the future...

I will laugh with you now. Anti-oil people

Thats true. one reason being that Govt gets too much money from oil revenue to kill it off quickly.

or because it is legitimately impossible to kill it off quickly. kill off oil right now and we will see a depression worse than the 30's

That too. I had added a line about having to change an oil dependent economic infrastructure but deleted it

Some announce BushCo as being soft these days.

Those that are paying attention wouldn't call the rampage his group is on "going soft". People are just numb to the effects, so the efforts are less felt. It's like a horror movie that is sooo scary you hide your eyes to miss the really gory parts. For example, calling an attempt to lessen the ability of the endangered species act to protect our wildlife from developers is not a soft act. Trying to turn massive areas of our protected public marine environment into a "marine reserve" so it falls under the control of the Dept of the Interior ... thus opening the mineral reserves to drilling ... is not soft.

Safer is not a word that applies to our present condition. We are in a far greater state of danger now than at any time in our post WWII past.

We now have an exponentially increased defense budget. The defense of our country now requires alphabet agencies that in a pre-BushCo world didn't even exist. Agencies that have had to change names because of massive civil rights violations. Our civil rights have been thrashed in the name of safety, the futures of our children are mortgaged to the hilt, and we live in a reality that now ... at this very instant ... includes a greater danger than ever before of seeing mushroom clouds appear over a major city or three. Many experts consider that event eminent. Safe? ... nope. Not even.

We, as Americans, can no longer travel at all through many countries, or even entire chunks of the world, that were openly safe for us pre-BushCo.

The die hard BushCo fans with more loyalty to their party than their country are pushing this situation to an even greater likelihood of attacks on domestic soil by propagating this myth that we are somehow safer than we were pre-BushCo ... we are not even close.
Party first, America second is backasswards. Doing this to put a better face on the Republican party is a very harmful action to take to attempt to ensure a better vantage point in the upcoming elections. Looking at the future with a McCain executive branch is like seeing BushCo with a smoother more intelligent front man. That's scary.

Stepping away from party loyalty is the safest thing you can do for your country. Divesting your self of party identity and voting on the issues is the only way to serve your country in the upcoming elections.

I'd still vote Ron Paul if I thought he had anything resembling a remote chance, but as it stands now he is toast and Obama's stance on increased troop deployment in Assghanistan is not making me feel good about him as a leader either. I say that to stress that we as Americans have some hard choices in front of us , but we need to make them based on our country not any misplaced political party identity. Remember the communist party rode the USSR into extinction. Don't make the same mistake.
