From HS-

"Well, the South Vietnamize Army was taking over combat functions in Vietnam, and may have prevailed ultimately."

Interesting mix of fact, the first part, and pure right wing revisionist whimsy, the second part...

An extension of the usual "We could have won!" delusion that drives the bitterness of some Vietnam vets.

Of course we could have won, but only by engaging in the kind of mass murder that would have made Saddam Hussein blanche... The American people simply won't do it, won't prosecute war at that level of intensity unless actually attacked beforehand.

All of which has diddly-squat to do with the topic at hand.

Guess I'll check the other relevant thread, where the discussion concerns the Bushies forcing the publisher to quit printing "Favorite Son"- Don't suppose the fanbois would care to address that in the context of this topic, after all the raving and name-calling?

lee atwater, rest in peace!!

You are a fine Repugnican. You do not care about truth. You do not care about democracy. You do not care about what is best for America. All you care about is winning at any cost. You will lie, cheat, steal, and lie some more to win.

You make me sick. You are the problem with American politics.

I think I already know the answer, but for clarification purposes heartsurgeon, could you tell all of us why you took the time to chop off the first part of my response?
It's not the first time "heartsurgeon" has clipped a few words out of context to intentionally, flagrantly misrepresent an opponent's position. He did this to me at least once. He refused to apologize for this or even defend it when I called him on it. As far as I am concerned, he has no integrity, and therefore no credibility. It makes him a fitting shill for his feckless leader in D.C.

You got that right.

Gaard:

well apparently some body admits to wanting to ban books!!

the quote is accurate, i do not hide the fact that the sentence has been truncated for brevity....the essense of my statement is unchallenged...Gaard condones the act of book banning. He said it, not me.

Hey, how about this, whenever rip posts something, if you have any shred of intelligence, don't reply! That way, no one will ever make a big deal out of his posts (only the idiots will reply). There is no point in trying to argue with him since his mind is made up, why bother?

JUST STOP RESPONDING TO STUPID THREADS. Or Hijack them

At least you're not trying to get me to banned like other libs here so there's signs of progress.

What don't you libs understand about the first ammendment right to free speech?

Why doesn't Kerry and his supporters respond to the charges against him rather than trying to silence everyone who challenges his account? Is it perhaps because you/he CAN'T?

What are you talking about RIP? He has been responding to these attacks with evidence to support his version. Don't you remember the statement by the fellow he saved supporting his view? What about the recent military report released stating that the boat of the guy that says kerry wan't under fire while saving that man, was under ifre himself and he, himself was the one to give that statement. He's been repsonding constantly to these charges with evidence to back up his claims. But we both know that doesn't matter because at the heart of these accusations are claims that are can't be proven (and unfotrunately disproven) since they're based only one groups statement vs the other groups. We MUST REMEMBER, that what the swift boat veterans for truth are accusing kerry of is a crime and that kerry is INNOCENT until proven guilty. Same goes for bush, too. There's been a lot thrown out there about under handed bush dealings but its all mute until he's proven guilty. Its really sad how some of you have turned into nothing more than gossip mongers. Let's deal with the facts here, rip instead of just politically motivated allegations.

From Fordfreak-

" John is an ignorant mother $#%@%^. The whole US might as well go to hell if he becomes president."

Nice post- you've reduced the position of Bushfans to its most basic form- pure gibberish as an expression of fear and indoctrination.

So, uhh, this ignorance would make him different from the dry-drunk, jebus-freak, spoiled, lazy, and self-righteous richkid redneck currently occupying the Oval Office in exactly what way?

At least Kerry spent the time to learn how to properly pronounce the word "nuclear", and I suspect he'd actually enjoy reading something meatier than a Batman comic...

Wake up. GWB is the modern political equivalent of Homer Simpson.

Do you think John would've done anything about the attacks? I doubt it. Bill CLinton probably wouldn't have done anything either. Democrats now-a-days are pu**ified and don't give a crap about the military. We have gotten some of the highest annual pay raises ever in the last few years. I doubt Clinton would've done anything and I don't think Kerry will. I hate to say it, but I believe the days of great presidents are over with. F. D. Roosevelt, Eisenhower, Lincoln and Washington were the greatest presidents ever IMO.

What is it again that Bush did about the attacks? Oh yes, that's right, we invaded Iraq. Thanks for reminding me. Sometimes I forget.

So no, you are right, John Kerry would not have invaded Iraq post 9/11 nor would Clinton, Bush 1, Reagan, Carter, Ford, Nixon, certainly not JFK... I can see LBJ pulling the same crap Bush2 did...

Thanks for reminding me why I am voting for Kerry.
