Reply to Wanted: Rational Left-Winger Article Writers in Politics JoeUser Forums

Problem with the Left, liberals, progressives,etc., is they take a position no matter how out of left field and continue to push it. They tend to follow a European way of thinking...and if you disagree...your nothing but an ignorant fascist. One little point I'd make....the term 'liberals' is out of fashion....it's now called 'progressives' because 'liberal' tends to be considered left wing or as it's known today extreme left wing. Same peop

You know, I always wonder why is it that these people always want to refer to the US as an "imperialist" country? If America is this great big Imperialist nation....then can someone explain where is all that land we captured in all of our wars of agression? WW1, WW2, Korea, Vietnam, Grenada, Pa

Reply to POLLS SHOW VOTERS MADE ERROR IN NOVEMBER in Politics JoeUser Forums

We had a president who went by poll numbers to decide national and foreign policy already.....His name was Clinton... The job of the President is to make policy decision that are in the best interest of this country regardless of poll numbers, opinions, etc. You may not agree with them...but that is the reality of the position. If the position of the president decided along poll numbers and national or international opinion( a la Cli

Gotta love the left doing their damm best to let this woman die..... Here's and interesting question...lets take another person in exactly the same condition and have them at Gitmo...the person is a terrorist. Would the left still be singing the praises of letting them die?I wonder..... Why is it that the husband, after a 7 year lapse in memory, afirms that his wife didnt want life support(of course life support isnt a feeding tube..

What really irks me is that these deserters each have their own websites where they push for donations......if for some reason Canada gets weak knee'd and allows them sanctuary....I personally will lead the movement to revoke US citizenship of each and every deserter and their famlies ......(if they followed into Canada as well)...... Another idea somewhat crazy...how bout we hire bounty hunters to bring them back to the US to stand trial

Today, a Canadian immigration board denied political asylum for Jeremy Hinzman, thus serving as an initial notice to all US military deserters that their hopes of evading military duty (for which they all volunteered for), evading facing the legal ramifications of their position (electing to run instead of facing the music as it were is cowardly). Hinzman is

Stories like this have been going on in Iraq for some time now....but knowing how the majority of the media likes to stay holed up in a Baghdad hotel instead of actually moving about the country...doesnt shock me this is the first we "heard" of it.
