A few bad apples is nothing but a excuse, a rather childish analogy at that.

Besides the fact that the us has shown no regard to respect for soverignty of other nations the soldiers now have a reputation for being a awfully cruel and dangerous group.

cruel and dangerous group, eh? What a joke.


You think ANYONE wants these guys in their country?

The vast majority of our men and women in the military do their jobs very well and prefessionally. But like anything else, there are bad, cops, bad soldeirs, and bad politicians. Doesn't mean the rest of the people in thier profession don't do a good job.

bblah blah blah, as more stories come out across the world of our soldiers commiting more horrendous acts, do you think the world is ignoring this stuff and passing it off like you?

unlike you they are not interested in fluffing bush but looking at the sick reality of the situation.

Really, then by all means, show us the proof that our military has a significant portion of people engaged in such acts. You make us sound like a bunch of idiots and kill our credibility.

the liberals lost their credibility in the eyes of the world when they did not stop this horror and sat on their asses in this country and let bush have his way.

don't talk to me about credibility when the "liberals" in congress are backing bush again and again when the votes come in.

I am sure there were good liberals in germany too, but they got their asses bombed right along with the right-wingers too, no action=aiding the enemy. guilt by assosiation.

If you are a liberal then act like one and fight back, your choking us with that flag.

Better take that flag and lead the charge or join the ones sticking it down your throat.

Bad apples? Bad apples? LOL. I believe a bad apple is someone who throws toilet papper in your trees at night, or maybe someone who starts a fight in a bar. I kind of think rape, torture & murder rise slightly above the level of bad apple. Perhaps we can call those freaks, dirty stinkin' murdering nazi wannabe apples?

Edit: Oh, if I were Brazilian, I'd never vote to get rid of guns either. I think they have some oil, and we love oil.

oh boy, the nazi comparisons!!!! Yes, because several bad soldiers that made prisoners do perveted sex acts are very similar to a military where the vast majority were actively engaged in running extermination camps, routing up jews, and taking over Europe and Russia.

<sigh> I now have 2 reasons why the democratic party has lost much of its credibility in this country. If only we could get the retards in our party to shut up.

The funny thing is he skipped over the analogy and somehow tried to apply a value to the item used for the analogy.

Probably a smoker according to Daves smoker thread lmao.

I think the same thing about the cowards who blind themselves with their own flag.

Either sh1t or get off the pot. You are no better then them, I am sure they would apreciate your vote, you already have the apologist part down pat.
Welcome to the party of opposition either help make this country a better place or get out of the way.

Sounds like people need to start shooting back. Nothing deters a criminal more than knowing a law-abiding citizen is going to shoot them dead, with no hesitation.

The party is shrinking becasue the dems have no spine.

None of the lefty comments made in here all day for example even remotley reflect the democratic party of corporate ass-kissers, get real.

Why vote republican-lite? the democrats are not the fighting left of JFK days for example.

Maybe the party is shrinking because clowns like you have taken it over and are driving the avg democrat out?

Nahh it has to be the moderate democrat and republicans fault why your agenda is failing miserably.

I know the right would love to believe that is true, what easier way to push the center even more to the right.
In reality though the people are not talking about moderate crap, there is a big representation gap.

What people? Moderate democrats? Obviously when you keep losing elections because moderates arent interested in your platform, maybe it is time to clean house and find a platform that you can win on?

Like you said either sh!t or get off the pot. If the democratic party wants to go stalinist then get off the pot and stop complaining about losing votes and not being able to win elections. Just declare yourself the communist party and let a moderate liberal party fill the void.

Whats really sad is thats even with a idiotic democratic out of touch party.

Communist? Stalinist? WTF are you talking about dude. The American Democratic party is the most right-wing liberal party in the Western world.

And I don't even think Steeplerot is a Democrat.

You are very right about that too, the dems are not by a longshot "liberal" and no I am not a democrat. (Even though I would and did vote that way to keep such a dangerous president out of office)

Hmm why are the democrat "liberals" losing power...oh yeah, becasue the democrats are not liberal duuur!

Like I said, why vote republican-lite when you can get the whole gun toting cowboy deal by voting for the right-wingers in the first place.

the 1 party state masquarading as a 2 party state and democracy as a whole has failed us.

Time to reboot the system before someone has to come along and kick the cord out.
