We're not fighting Iraqi countrymen who don't want to see their country captured or an organized army. We're fighting foreigners from all over the middle east who are members of Sadr's militia and Hamas. We got what we wanted, we're fighting the terrorists head-on, so now it's time to kill every last f***ing one of em.

Ditto, agree with you kid. Now keep you political correctness up and edit your message to say "We need to free every last F*** one of them."

The obey orders no matter what thing-

Food for thought: It is our duty as Military men to obey the orders of our commanders. There also comes a time when a soldier must disobey...yep I said it. There is such a thing as an illegal order! When a superior orders you to do something morally unjust/illegal it is your duty to disobey and inform the porper people under the UCMJ. And so yes soldiers are required to not be politically outspoken or motivated but that does not mean you do whatever your superiors tell you no matter what. History shows that when a soldier follows orders in which he knows are illegal but does nothing, attrocities go unchecked. For instance German soldiers that say they were "just following orders".

I think there are some prison guards who will be borrowing that "just following orders line."

Anyway, that's some good stuff, athough the economic stuff, e.g. the anti-NAFTA bit, was right out of the reactionary crank playbook. I generally come down on the side of free trade--Ricardo, comparative advantage, and so forth.

Wow, that was too coservative even for me, a guy who had a professor in college describe as follows: Picture a whiteboard about 6 feet wide with a line drawn across it then a line dividing it down the middle. Those to the left of the line are the liberals, those to the right are conservative. I was placed down at the end of the hall of the right hand side. The hallway was over 150 feet long.

This is craziness folks, it would hurt us as much (if not more) as it would the bad guys. How about this instead: Let's take over ABC, NBC, CBS, CNN, NPR, ect. and force them to show, for at a minimum 95% of their broadcast news, the GOOD things happening in the world that the US is helping create. Just imagine how people would feel if they were inindated with hour upon hours, day after day, of good things the US is doing for the world: new schools in Iraq, humanitarian efforts in Hispanola, food and medicine assistance in Africa, education assistance in eastern Europe. My God, what a concept, the truth being shown that would help bring back some sense to the nations of the world that we are not the enemy, that we are the good guys, the bad guys doa good enough job of making themselves look bad, why are we droping down to their level now? Time to rise above and start showing the world how good we are, and if Sam Donaldson, Tom Brokaw, Peter Jennings, Katie Couric, Wolf Blitzer, ect don't want to tell it, then lets get rid of them first.

"good things the US is doing for the world: new schools in Iraq, humanitarian efforts in Hispanola, food and medicine assistance in Africa, education assistance in eastern Europe." ...........how about doing a little more of that here first? it's tough to save yourself when you're trying to save the rest of the world.
