Ditto. As long as I don't have to share a tent with them.

Not a fan of the ladies eh BOBDN?

Just remember....don't ask, don't tell.

No, I'm a fan of the ladies. Always have been.

But we're talking about the Bush twins here. How can you confuse those two with ladies?

If you think those two are ladies your orientation is questionable, not mine.

Hmmm....well I've never seen them naked but I'm fairly certain they are both women. I mean unless they are taping up their package I have seen no signs of a surprise in their pants.

He's a bush fan. He wouldn't know the difference between ladies and drunken hillbillies.

Yeah and Bush in in Iraq for the oil. Same old tired lines...how about you try to come up with a different and REAL argument.

How about you stop appointing yourself the judge of what is or isn't a "REAL" argument?

You can't defend your position so you come up with BS. Why no answer the question?

Absent WMD and nuclear sales from Africa just why the hell are we in Iraq?

And after you answer that answer this. If we have reason, whatever reason, to be in Iraq why aren't we North Korea?
Or any other nation that is ruled by a tyrant? If you can't answer those answer this. If we're in Iraq to liberate the Iraqi people from a dictator what is different about Iraq that makes it OK for us to invade them only?

Get used to it, 'cause you'll be hearing that tire line a lot. Here's a story for you.

article

An excerpt for the click-impaired:

Soldiers say most of their work involves civilian contractor Kellogg
Brown and Root, a subsidiary of Vice President Dick Cheney's former
company, Halliburton Corp. The company has contracts to haul fuel,
and 319th members are riding along as armed escorts.

"The main reason we're still here is to support Brown and Root,"
said Sgt. 1st Class David Uthe, 45, of Augusta.

Excuse for what?

Uh huh. I see. Your excuse is ignorance.

You're asking me what my excuse is for not joining the service and I'm the one that's ignorant.

OK.

Pretty amazing nallur. Pretty amazing.

US armed forces riding shotgun for Cheney and Halliburton.

My God, wake up people. How can anyone defend what these people are doing?

So what's the right answer General Patton. Send the fuel trucks in unescorted? Get a clue.

No, genius. You said "Looks like the cowards are getting their excuses ready."

So my question still stands. What's yours?

The right answer is, we don't invade a country based on lies and false evidence to make Cheney and Halliburton richer. Then the fuel tankers don't need an escort.

Well since I'm already on active duty and have been for almost 20 years, it doesn't appear I'll need one.


BTW you can prove that Cheney's getting rich off the war, right?

No, Rambo-wannabe, they have a contract which means they are getting paid (with my tax money). Let them hire their own damn security instead of putting our soldiers in jeopardy.

Two points: Rush Limbaugh dodged Vietnam by having anal cysts?! Holy crap dude. I guess he wins the honor of "most disgusting excuse." At least Cheney had "other priorities" and isn't grossing people out 40-years later...

Bush twins: Come on people, I'm not a republican by any means, but hey - they're twins! And they get drunk a lot. What more do you want??!

Compensation he was due long before he took office.

Gee braniac do you think maybe it is part of the contract that we provide security while they take gas to the front? Or maybe we should have more armed civilians running around Iraq. Quit posting about this, you're more than a little bit clueless.

Gee Einstein, why don't you show us the contract? Oh wait, you wont get to see it 'cause it's all done in a wink-wink nudge-nudge manner Cheney's office. While you have your head up Cheney's ass, see if he has cysts like Limbaugh.

I'm a coward! My excuse is: I'm too scared to go over there to Iraq and get shot at for no good reason. I'll go over there if I can have the twins come with me... to aid and comfort me..

Gee UQ... Aiding and Abetting for so long... no wonder you want to be Ultra Quiet about it... I didn't see you or me on your "VET" list... Must be one of them Conservative lists..:)

I'll try to make this as simple as possible for you.

You posted, "Looks like the cowards are getting their excuses ready."

So what does your active duty have to do with anything, lifer?

Had you been more specific your post may have made sense. As it stands you made some irrational comment about cowards getting their excuses ready. Who do you consider cowards? Excuses for what?

As far as Cheney he's still collecting pay from Halliburton while orchestrating bogus invasions which require Halliburton's services. Do I have to explain what is wrong with that?
