There's oil in them there sub-tropics! Git it!

Hip Hip Horay! The Commander and Chimp is comming in for a fundraiser with his GOP cronies. You leave office in Jan with quite a record as Americas "War President."
Death, Poverty, War, Pain, Ignrance, Blind patriotism, joblessness and abandoned homes...
Your legacy is being written by those who watch as our homes collapse in values. You ruthlessly exploited the deadliest foreign attack on American soil and subsequently terrorized this nation and it's corporate media into giving you more lattitude than you otherwise deserved.
Your entire foreign policy has been constructed around deliberately inciting anti-American sentiment, fueling more war.

It's the war...it's the economy... "bring um on!"

Laughable. It'll all be over in 5 months

Cool a luncheon I wonder if there going to one of those restaurants that sells the fake grouper

Another $25,000 a plate luncheon? He certainly knows where his base is.... In "elite" Naples! Remember, Naples voted 65% for Katherine Harris too. LMFAO!

#3. "It'll all be over in 5 months" FIVE llllloooonnnnggg months.. LLLLLLLOOOOOONNNNNNNNGGGGGG months.

Eat more tomatoes.

He should bypass Naples and respectfully attend Tim Rusert's funeral instead.

Another typical politician visit to Naples. Swoop in, grab a bag full of money and high tale it back out of town. It never changes.

Just one time I would like to see one of the bozos actually take the time to visit the general population here. I know I am dreaming.

He is not welcome here.

Great. Nothing like sitting in traffic all day.

MarcoRobert has the right answer.. highly doubtful tho, money talks, B.S. walks!! we know what Bush has plenty of... BOTH!!!

I'm depressed!

An out of touch president visiting and out of touch community. Fitting end to this nightmare.

President Bush is a great example of what happens when a liberal is put in office.

In November we have a choice between two liberals. Barack Obama being the more liberal of the two, to be certain.

Too bad we can't get ripe tomatoes right now.

Beware- someone in the pentagon told him that there are WMDs in Naples.
And then someone in the CIA told him 9-11 conspirators were hiding in Naples.
Then someone from the state department told him that a regime change in Naples would bring democracy to the region...
I could go on, but I think I'd run out of space.

Maybe he's here to solve the school crises?

Ronald Reagan and George Bush.... The bigggest spenders to ever occupy the Whitehouse!

Vote Democrat!

holy crapola,,,,,wheres my shot gun

This whole blog session is no less than Donkeys VS Elephants.

Addendum to post 25:
I almost forgot-
The "yellow cake" from Africa- That's being stored in Naples too.
Right next to the aluminum tubes.

Let's face it folks-
This country's government needs an enema.

#27: Yes Ronald Reagan spent a lot of money...on the military...notice the world is now Soviet Union-free? Eastern Europe no longer under the thumb of Moscow.

And for today, maybe some of the spending in Iraq and Afghanistan (I'm sure what you refer to) might not have been needed if Bill Clinton had spent a little more time dealing with threats to national security instead of interns.

Make him pump his own limo with $4.00+++/gallon gas!!! Maybe he will invade Marco over the sewer debate, or he will shoot the Cooper's hawk's for the parking garage, or drill Big Cypress, or he will detain Sue Smith for her remarks at city council, or he will give a free pass to all our illegal immigrants, or he will give Port Royal an another tax break or he will hand Florida over to McCain now.....

This will make me sick to be in Naples the same day as this megalomaniac!!!! On the bright side maybe he will say something so stupid it will make me cringe in dark comedy all week. "Heh, heh, heh, Heh, heh, heh, Heh, heh, heh, Heh, heh, heh.."

I know one thing, he couldn't pass the FCAT

Nothing more poignant I can say.... the pages of history will not be harsh enough to Dub-Ya...220 days left to go!!!

Ronald Reagan was the Iran-Contra President. Shred 'em Ollie!

Is Bill Clinton coming to Naples pauls?
If so, hide your women.

But in the meantime, consider the fact (and it is a fact, you can look it up)

The W administration, upon taking office, issued a report on anti-terrorist intelligence, and gave the Clinton administration good grades.

One of the few things they were critical about was the Clinton administration's obsession with this seemingly second rate player by the name of Osama Bin Laden..

Ditto heads don't listen to facts or reason...just the party line or whatever FOX News tells them

who cares...he is such a jerk

You know what? I think Im offended.

#35: As opposed to liberals and ABC/CBS/NBC/CNN/MSNBC/New York Times/Washington Post/etc.?

No people, he is here to see the beaches of Naples before the beaches, and all of Naples AND EVEN

FLORIDA is

underwater due to global warming.

Whatever....it's all bout that Republican way of life anyway.

VOTE DEMOCRAT while you still have a state to vote in.

Naples is the last place standing that has both money and still supports Bush/Cheney/McSame. I ask Republicans here everyday "how much worse does it need to get before you stop supporting these creeps?" These supporters giving money all have blood on their hands from the immoral, unjust, stupid Bush's war in Iraq. Each dollar given to these neocons helps kill more of our wonderful soldiers in Bush's invasion and occupation of a sovereign country.

(This comment was removed by the site staff.)

you know...the only reason this guy is alive is because the freaks that would assasinate him LOVE HIM. Those of us that disagree with his murdering and other war atrocities would never stoop to such a level. Why wasn't he impeached? Seriously?

Reply to FreshFace-
Impeaching Bush is almost a good idea, but that would mean Cheney would become president.

Quail hunting, anyone? Or perhaps a little water- I mean, boogie- boarding?

And another odd thing, I tried to use the vice president's first name, which is D**k, but this site told me to watch my mouth, and that I couldn't use the word D**k.

The heat and humidity must be stifling down there, Mr. Editor.. It's so stifling that I can feel it from here.

I just got word he's going to Hooters.

No, he's not going to Hooters. :-)

They keep their bushes well trimmed. :-)

LOL

Oooh did I say bushes?

I meant Bush. :-)

Who cares!

This is the year in which Republicans are going to come to join the rest of us in their levels of affection for George W. Bush.

They are the only constituency whom he hasn’t yet taken over a cliff, but that will change on November 4th. Bush won’t be on the ballot. He will be the ballot. Every angry American (hey, only a record-breaking 82 percent of us think the country’s on the wrong track) will be thinking about how much gas costs, about how their expenses are going up, their income is stuck in neutral and their job is headed for India. They’ll be thinking about two wars turned into twin debacles, and the lies associated with them. They’ll be thinking about the dead bodies, the stink of torture, the tortured reputation of their country, and the people who made all of that possible. They’ll be thinking about the mountain of national debt their kids are gonna have to pay back, plus interest, so that the fantastically wealthy in this country could matriculate into becoming obscenely wealthy. They’ll be thinking about environmental destruction. They’ll be thinking about arrogance and incompetence and corruption. They’re gonna want somebody to pay, and – worst of all for the party of Rove and Cheney and Bush – they’re not really afraid anymore
http://www.smirkingchimp.com/thread/1...

Bush is fixated on Iraq, according to friends and advisers. "Nothing matters except the war," said one person close to Bush. The controversy still rages over the ultimate size of the bill for the war, with some suggesting the cost could reach $3 trillion...
During a recent survey by Historians several charges against the Bush administration arose repeatedly in the comments of historians who responded.
81% of Historians view his Presidency as a failure and the remaining 19% that said the Bush Presidency was a success were being sarcastic... since they said Bush’s presidency is only the best since Clinton’s and one named Millard Fillmore.
The cost of the War, Illegal Immigration, Health Care, Fuel Prices, Food Prices, Real Estate taxes, Education for our children...the list goes on and on...
Lets not forget, Halliburton, the oil services company formerly headed by US Vice-President Cheney, is moving its headquarters from Texas to Dubai and taking their profits with them...
GW dont let the door hit you in the bottom on the way out!

He is coming down to witness the terrorist coyote attacks. 101st Airborne will be here soon.

How depressing...

Red alert,Red alert-the liberals are coming,the liberals are coming.As we have heard before"LIBERALISM IS A MENTAL DISORDER"

MAYBE HE WILL COME HERE TO HELP ALL THE PEOPLE WHO HAD THEIR HOMES FORECLOSED. OR TO LOWER GAS PRICES WHILE HE, CHENEY , AND THEIR SAUDI BUDDIES AND OIL COMPANIES POST RECORD PROFITS.
I HOPE HE'S HERE TO TURN HIMSELF IN TO THE SHERRIF'S OFFICE FOR CRIMES AGAINST THE AMERICAN PEOPLE. ISN'T HIS FIRST RESPONSIBILITY FOR OUR WELFARE? WHAT A CRIMINAL. WHAT A LOSER. WORST PRES AND VP IN AMERICAN HISTORY. THE CONSERVATIVE ERA THAT BEAGN WITH NIXON IS OVER AND OUT.

PLEASE PRESIDENT BUSH. WE DON'T HAVE AS MUCH MONEY AS YOU AND CHENEY THINK WE DO DOWN HERE IN NAPLES. YOU'VE ALREADY STOLEN ENOUGH FROM US. PLEASE GO TO SAUDI ARABIA WHERE YOU ARE WELCOME.
YOU TREAT THEM LIKE THEY WERE THE ONES WHO ELECTED YOU TO TAKE CARE OF THEM. GREAT JOB. THE COUNTRY WILL SURVIVE DESPITE YOU AND CHENEY'S GREED AND LACK OF PATRIOTISM. GOOD BYE AND PLEASE DON'T OFFER ANY ADVICE TO FUTURE POLITICIANS. WE DON'T NEED THEM KNOWING ANY OF YOUR DIRTY TRICKS.

They'll probably stay at the Hyatt again. The Bushes seem to favor that establishment. I hope that they go somewhere else. The Hyatt likes to use our public road as a parking lot which makes travel more difficult and dangerous for the residents around here.

#5 Sunbernt.......that was funny....

Your ignorance shows with such un-deserved hatred for President Bush who has done his best to protect your many freedoms, (one of which is to complain for no good reason). The Islamofascists will attack us again (no matter how much you liberals kiss up to them). They will continue to encroach on our culture and way of life and you will cower to them because...that's just who you are. You will appreciate Bush's efforts when you wake up one day and realize all your freedoms are gone and you are now afraid to complain. Until then Keep on Rockin" in the Free World.

Chenzo et al - I'd be VERY careful joking about getting your shotguns out. The Secret Service takes those types of comments very seriously and that's a well known fact.

Advice aside, you're an idiot for going there. Can I assume that bitter Freshface wrote something similar to get her comment removed?

#60 TheBatman said "...such un-deserved hatred for President Bush who has done his best to protect your many freedoms..."

===================================

Are you serious? Bush and Cheney are trampling on our Constitutional Rights with spying and the Patriot Act, and you claim they are about our "many freedoms"? That's a joke!

Bush and Cheney are war criminals, and if Congressman Kucinich doesn't get his way with impeachment, I hope the International Community comes after them for their war crimes. Wasn't one of the reasons they used to go after Saddam Hussein, torture? Well, we have become what we are sending our Brave Soldiers to fight and die for in the Middle East!

Bush and Cheney's "noble cause" isn't so noble!

"All hail Premiere Boosh!!

President Bush is a great example of what happens when a liberal is put in office.

In November we have a choice between two liberals. Barack Obama being the more liberal of the two, to be certain.

YOUR FLAT OUT NUTS!!

Ya know what? I had enough of Clinton at the Waldorf in NYC. Every time I turned around, there was Air Force 1 at LaGuardia, and the streets were shut down for the President. Bill and Hillary love the Waldorf! Get ready for closed streets! Lovely! Don't bother driving around town next Friday!

There's Ironside and CutthroatLiberal (very original, dude) still helping to prove that liberalism is a mental disorder.

Going back in time here so some of you "yonkers" may not know the reference....

I would really like to see him presented with the "Laugh In" Whoopie award for coming to Naples.

This is NOT a comment on his entire tenure as President. Just a comment on his going to Naples when he really should be in the White House doing his job.

Yea, all you liberals keep putting Bush down and blame him for every misfortune. The high gas prices are global, it's not just us.

We need nuclear energy and drilling off of our own shores and we would not need foriegn oil.
But no, you tree hugging bleeding heart liberals have put a stop to that. So we have to pay $4.00 a gallon because of this. Brazil solved their gas woes by doing this, so why not us?

Have we had another attack on our soil since Bush sent troops over seas? And don't forget about the many attacks against us before 911.

America didn't want to bring the war to them, Bush was left with limited choices. Don't forget that they thru the first punch, more than once.

This thread shows how liberalism makes you stoopid.

what a bunch of idiots...

why my comment was removed when i said Bush is not welcomed here is beyond me. He IS the war president. Thousands of men and women HAVE died due to oil. What was wrong with stating the obvious? Right winged pigeons from outerspace. Sent here to destroy the human race. they don't give a blasted about you or me.....

Oh, come on folks! Let's be fair and at least shaw a modicum of espect our President and what he has done for make us safe from terrorsts. Admit that the economy goes up and down in cycles and when people are stupid or greedy and over commit themselves a shake out is very useful as it brings things back into balance. Acknowledge that the press parrots left misconceptions. For example, President Bush had better grades, class-for-class, than Kerry at Yale, yet they persist in labeling him dumb just because he speaks differently and it meets their elitist goals. Stop repeating the lie about our state really voting for Gore, when even the left-wing NYTimes sponsored recount showed Bush won fair and square. I'll vote for McCain, but if Obama becomes our president as is very likely, I will support him as he is our leader. Just as I did for all of our leaders in the past. My parents taught me that, schools reinforced that with the Pledge of Alligence and my oath when I served this great country in the US Army reminded me of that. Lastly, it is indeed reassuring that I believe that 99% of the men and women in the services support our President.

Keep singing old songs freshface that really helps...

So what was your original handle?

How some people can honestly believe (p)Resident Bush has made us safer from terrorists by invading Iraq is beyond me. The naive and gullible are still alive and well, I see.

al Qaeda has only grown because of Bush taking his eye off the eight ball in Afghanistan. There was no such thing as "al Qaeda in Iraq" before Bush made it possible for them to become that. We were already "fighting them over there" (in Afghanistan) before Bush decided to invade and occupy Iraq. Yesterday 1000's off Taliban escaped prison. We're bogged down using up our resources in an un-necessary was in Iraq to the tune of (so far) half a trillion dollars and 4100+ and counting of our bravest citizens.

Bush hasn't only been bad for America, he's been bad for the whole world.

CORRECTION:
was = war

"We're bogged down using up our resources in an un-necessary war in Iraq to the tune of (so far) half a trillion dollars and 4100+ and counting of our bravest citizens."

No wonder the majority of presidents are Republicans.....after listening to this bunch of whiny, immature, Democrats!
How many of you complainers are actually out there doing something to change things????

Dearest Secret Service and NSA guys:

When you read these comments to ascertain if any credible, viable threat to the President exists during his visit, we all want you to know that we're just joking and none of us would ever harm a hair on his pointy little head.

Really

Sincerely,
You-know-who (and you probably do)

opinion: I love that you know that song! :)

I have my $25,000 at the ready..maybe it'll be $2,500 this time....

Islamofasicst??? Liberalism is a mental disorder??? Whiny??? Immature??? Tree hugger??? You people are so afraid of Americans who love their country electing someone who will not cow tow to the lowest level of hate sparked fear of open debate that you have resorted to your last best defense: name calling and insults.

Facts speak for themselves...

LEOM, many of us patriotic Americans are doing what it takes to fix things. We're voting for Democtrats in 2008! 2009 can't get here fast enough!

Justiss1962 how many American soldiers and innocent Iraqis (totally) have died because of George Bush's unjust and possibly illegal invasion and occupation of Iraq? Maybe 100's of thousands?

#80 - AARGGHHH: THANK YOU!

LMFAO, that was great. You seriously had me laughing. "His pointy little head" is just too funny, but true!

Yep, they probably know exactly who we are.

I hope someone asks him if they located any of the 2400 terrorists that escaped from the prison in Afghanistan a few days ago killing 8 prison guards,
I saw nothing about this in the NDN...but it was in the 3 other papers I read daily. Bush should be charged with war crimes instead of trying to impeach him, that takes to long. I would love to see him loose the money we have to pay former Presidents until they die though, Lord knows he hasn't earned his stipend.

Rockfordgrad...Tompson should have been at the helm when you were in school, your lack of common sense is astounding, exceeded only by your arrogance.
All I can say is "Hide and watch" Obama Win.
Intelligent people do not want more of what's happening now.
A novice can surely do better than Bush. I am willing to give it a try, why are you so stuck on the Elephant man?

Neal ...LOL :D "The Fickle Finger of Fate Award"
is truly in order.
The last hoorah vacation Bush is taking instead of handling business at home really eats my lunch!
ONE MILLION DOLLARS for him to go to 5 countries, Why? did they invite him....I doubt it.

Agreed Justiss1962, good post.

war crimes--you traitors should be imprisoned for stupidity.They attacked us you fools!!

Agreed again waldini202.

Thank you.

I wish we would change the Constitution and re-elect George W. Bush, I disagree with him on amnesty for illegals, but otherwise he has been great and he may be the last true American President we'll get for some time to come.

Yes Ronald Reagan spent a lot of money...on the military...notice the world is now Soviet Union-free? Eastern Europe no longer under the thumb of Moscow.
OH GIVE ME A G-D D-MN BREAK WITH THAT 'MR GORBACHEV TEAR DOWN THAT WALL' B.S. THE SOVIET UNION WAS SO ON THE BRINK OF COLLAPSING WHEN REAGAN TOOK OFFICE, HER PEOPLE WERE EITHER REELING IN THE STREETS DRUNK OR IN A STATE OF ADVANCED STARVATION. YOU'D HAVE TO BE BRAIN DEAD AT THE TIME NOT TO ACKNOWLEDGE THAT. REAGAN MADE A PRONOUNCEMENT THAT WAS A FOREGONE HISTORIC CONCLUSION LIKE ANY OLD SLEAZY REPUBLICAN OPPORTUNIST.

pbackos, please voice your opinion without
yelling.
Please turn your "caps" off.

waldini202 Iraq didn't attack us first, or at all. Iraq has never done anything to us outside of their own borders. You're clueless.

ironside-why dont you go have a cup a tea with them!!You dumb liberals will get us all killed.

Yo Ironslug...we never said they attack us. He was a butcher, and fighting the terrorist on Iraq turf beats the heck out of fighting them on ours.

Gee maybe Obama can stop the absolute wacko terrorists wanting to kill all christians by chatting with them. We can only pray he tries that approach over there, if you know what I mean.

Clueless huh. Yes you Dems are but hey we won't throw you out of the country because of it.

What was wrong with fighting them on Afghanistan turf? No oil? Couldn't avenge daddy Bush that way? The war in Iraq has only hindered our efforts on the war on terror and those who attacked us on 9/11/01. You neocons are too deaf, dumb and blind with partisanship to realize it.

Remember 9/11 happened on George Bush's watch after he warned by the Clinton Administration about al Qaeda, a terrorist organization Condoleezza Rice hadn't heard of.

Bush was too busy reneging on the Missile Treaty to care about al Qaeda, and look at where it got us.

Obama in 2008.

McCain only offers the status quo. No thanks.

ironhead-clinton had several chances at Bin Laden on a silver platter dummy!!

Will I get the chance to tell him how much he su--d as a president?

Bush lied, deceived and misled our great country into an unjust war. I will never forget his confused and ignorant expression while speaking to school children for an hour while our country was being attacked. It was emblamatic of his entire presidency......Katrina: What the hell was he thinking when people were suffering and dying in their homes and streets for days? This is our leader? He is a simple man. He will be judged quickly and harshly for what he has done. Do us all a favor and stay away Bush. How much of taxpayer's money wil be spent for this $$ fundraising trip? What a waste!

Hiel to the Thief he's the Thief who stole our freedom.

Everyone show up in their brown shirts with red SwastiKKKa armbands and spit shined jack boots and bring some books for the book burning. And don't forget the torchlight parade where we will all gooosestep around the podium where he stands with our hands hieling him loudly.

Four years ago my neo-con stockbroker advised me to invest in the company that makes caskets for the military.

Actually it's quite simple.

Are you better off now, then you were when Bush took office???

;-)

"Actually it's quite simple.
Are you better off now, then you were when Bush took office???"

Yes much better off then I was before Bush...you would have to be a freaking idiot not to be better off 7 years later.

"Four years ago my neo-con stockbroker advised me to invest in the company that makes caskets for the military."

Either you are lying or you lost a ton of money.

Cutthroat you need to cut back on either the beer, the caffine or both buddy. Crossed what line dude? I still say "one nation under God", I still salute the flag, I stick by my church, and I tell it like it really is. Your boy has zero experience, says whatever he needs to depending on who is listening, shows little respect for the Americans that have fought for this country like my Dad and myself, and is just too full of his preppy done-nothing self.

So fight me moron all you want. Face to face your type go running home to hide and complain, but love the big talk any chance you get.

Don't worry if those very terrorists your type want to cuddle ever do have enough nerve to start something again over here, me and my buds call the Armed Services will save your sniffling little butt along with everyone else.

theshadow.... of Bush/Cheney.

the shaodw is "much better off."

theshadow obviously enjoys:

4.00+ (and rising) gas prices.
High grocery costs.
Unaffordable health care.
Unjust wars.
Spying on American citizens.
High number of foreclosures.
Corporate America headin' to Chins and India in droves.
National suplus turning into record deficits.

Either that or theshadow is one of the elite top 1% whom these issues don't effect.

sowestfla1975 were you born in 1975? If so, you were 16 years old during Desert Storm, and if that's the case the only wars you would have been able fight in would have been Bosnia, Afghanistan, or this war in Iraq.

Which war was it you fought?

This is from a post on my web site from a soldier CURRENTLY serving in Iraq TODAY....

***QUOTE***

I work very hard each day and many projects and although I am 'new' to my field I can take care of any problems that arises in my BCT that involves Imagery. The NGA [cvilian] workers do very little. I work at my mission 12-15 hour day along with other work after my mission.

So where is the money going?:

35G NCOIC (me) - 45k/yr. Deployed, 33k/yr. Garrison
35G NGA Rep. [civilians]- 180k/yr. Deployed, 125k/yr. NGA, CIA, DIA, etc.

Another Example: We have TCNs (Third [World] Country Nationals) that work at BIAP (Baghdad International Airport) at the PX, AT THE PX!!!, that make more money that I do!!! They are from Uganda.

***UNQUOTE***

What a shame! And that quote is posted on our forums for all our members to see.

Obama supports focusing on those whom invaded our country and attacked us on 9/11/01, in Afghanistan and Pakaistan. McCain supports starting a new war with Iran. McCain has learned nothing from Bush's mistakes.

Remember Osama bin Laden? He needs to be broght to justice!

http://politicalplace.com

Ironside for President!!!

rustyside,

Not in the top 1% but I am much better off then I was 7 years ago. McCain, Obama will not slow me down...thank you for providing an excellent example of how liberalism rots the brain.

Theshadow...you resorting to name calling says a lot about you...You have nothing to back up your rants except your daily diet of talk radio from the talking heads....especially the one who needed 140 oxycotin pills to make it through the day.

Must have hit a nerve there...I don't have time to list to talk radio and living life to the fullest by my own terms give me the only high I need.

You libs need to lay of the haterade....you guys are 10x worse then those conservative during Clinton.

Bush's shadow, if I'm supposed to be offend it didn't work. I consider the source, and simple little people don't bother me, regardless of the insults they hurl my way.

Sorry.

theshadow said: "You libs need to lay of the haterade....you guys are 10x worse then those conservative during Clinton."

=====================

That's because Bush is 10x worse than Clinton.

I most have really hit a nerve...if I am a simple little person that doesn't bother you then why all the responses.

I must be speaking some truth.

It is very amusing that just because I said I did well during the past year I must be attached to Bush. Maybe if you had focused your energy on something other then your hate for Bush you could be better off as well.

Who said I was addressing you?

theshadow (of Bush/Cheney), the reason for my responses is because I served this nation so people like you and me could respond with our own views. It's called Free Speech.

Are you by any chance a Veteran too, or just a chickenhawk? It's easy to support an unjust war from the comfort of your living room, isn't it?

==============================

chickenhawk: One who supports war, but would never fight in one themselves i.e. George Bush. He opt out of Vietnam.

***QUOTE***

"I was not prepared to shoot my eardrum out with a shotgun in order to get a deferment. Nor was I willing to go to Canada," George Bush explained to The Dallas Morning News back in 1990. "So I chose to better myself by learning how to fly airplanes."

http://politicalplace.com

Ironside,you are assuming a whole lot and you what assuming make you?

I am assuming nothing. I am asking a question, nothing more. Are you a military Veteran?

What does military service have to do with anything here? Where did that enter?

Go back and read all the assumptions you are making.

I stated the facts that I am better off then I was 7 years ago. All you gave back are liberal talking points.

It seems you've answered my question by dancing around the answer. Veterans are a proud group of people and have no problem telling others that they are military Veterans.

I served in the United States Army in Germany in the 70s. My unit was HHC 1st Battalion, 37th Armor - Old Ironsides, the 1st Armor Division. That's where I get my username from, Ironside.

This is my website: http://politicalplace.com
It's a site for Veterans and patriots alike.

I write my own argument/debate, I don't need talking points. I know how I feel, and what I have to say.

I was against the war in Iraq from the start. I knew we had a war on terror to fight in Afghanistan and that Saddam Hussein was nothing more than a distraction that could and should have been dealt with at a later time.

I support the efforts in Afghanistan and always have. It's too bad the Bush Administration doesn't and have lost focus on that front, as Osama bin Laden now roams a free man.

Maybe Bush is not coming to Naples but going to Ave Maria:

http://www.dailyindia.com/show/249687...

LOL I can't believe you guys getting so worked up over a guy who won't be on the ballot in Nov. You won't get very far yelling at the rearview mirror.

The war in Iraq is my passion. It makes me sick to my stomach how some people blindly support sending our brave there, and the half trillion dollars spent in Iraq as our economy suffers. All this while the war on terror goes largely ignored. Yesterday over 1000 Taliban escaped prison in Kabul. The Bush administration has lost focus in Afghanistan. John McCain wants to start another war in Iran. This is insane!

McCain is offering the status quo. He's running for Bush's third term. Not a talking point, just a fact!

War is the ultimate diplomatic tool.
