Bush war bad/Obama war good


"While Foreign Terrorists were plotting to murder and maim using homemade bombs in Boston, Democrap officials in Washington DC, Albany and here were busy watching ME and other law abiding American Citizens who are gun owners and taxpayers, in an effort to blame the nation's lack of security on US so that they could have a political scapegoat."

Since Bush started the only war we are now pursuing... Where is the Obama War???

All war good.  The leaders wouldn't wage them unless they were good.

I can hear the printing presses start up, making the yellow ribbons and 'support our troops' magnets and bumper stickers.

Ahhhh...War...The health of the state.

hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha.....that's not even a half-truth


...you are a product of your environment, your environment is a product of your priorities, your priorities are a product of you......

The replacement of morality and conscience with law produces a deadly paradox.

"Well, I personally believe that -- I mean, this is my belief, okay? But President Assad has been very generous with me in terms of the discussions we have had. And when I last went to -- the last several trips to Syria -- I asked President Assad to do certain things to build the relationship with the United States and sort of show the good faith that would help us to move the process forward," --- John Kerry on Assad 2011

Try?...Try what?

Try and make a murderous dictator look like some sort of 'friend' and 'reformer'?

If that's what you mean, then I guess we can chalk this one up to be another Obama epic failure.

I can see the 'Winter Soldier' coming out soon and saying....

"I was Assad's best friend ,before I called him Hitler"

Bush war bad...Obama war good!

Obama's war... Like Bush's war?  Where US Troops actually engage in enemy combat with the purpose
of defeating the enemy???  

Is that the war Buck had in mind???

Here's something that I never see explained, but even raising the topic will get you a ton of backlash. We go into these battles, or take sides, and then life in these places, like Iraq, may be better for some people than it was before, but it gets way worse for women, and Christians. Since the majority of Americans are women and/or Christians (yes, it is so), why do we tolerate this, in our name? American lives lost to improve life for SOME muslim men?

Now I may be wrong, and we al know that Cissy is the resident expert of all, but I thought that for us to be at war,
that there would have to be a DECLARATION OF WAR, which is an act of the national legislature.
I thought his power is vested in congress by the constitution, art. 1, s. 8. There is no form or ceremony necessary, except the passage of the act.
Not sure that the President, unilaterally, has the power to declare war, and unless war is declared, technically we are not at war.....right?!?!?!?!?


JUST BECAUSE SISSY SAYS SO DOESN'T MAKE IT SO...BUT HE THINKS IT DOES!!!!!

Correct, we would just be killing people outside the US with the military.

Again.
