Anyway, All of a sudden, a guy who blows up a car in front of US soldiers invading iraq is a terrorist, while launching cruise missles and dropping MOABS on a populated city without any fear of being shot down is somehow 'brave' and 'righteous'. Logic what?
If you had any inclination of a clue regarding Rules of Engagement, the Geneva and Hague Conventions, as well as DoD doctrine, you would not have even spewed forth a statement of such utter nonsense.

Funny how most warmongers will say that we should not actively participate in the UN and other international organizations, but we should be bound by international agreements made years ago.
Funny how most bleeding heart liberals say we should abide by rules of war.



Funny how most conservatives support a communist/fascist of a president known as George Bush.
Prove it.

Gosh, he only increased the size and scope of government exponentially.
So how does this make him a "communist/fascist of a president"??


Good lord, what kind of education did you get as a child? Do i have to give you a definition of both now?
Obviously more education than you.

Quantify the statement "communist/fascist president". Quantify it. You can't.

Farm Bill/"Patriot Act"/Education Bill/"Defense" Bill <-- expanding federal powers/size, etc. etc. etc.

I like how burnout is a blind patriot
Patriotic, yes!

So please enlighten us, Phokus. How does the Farm Bill, Patriot Act, Education Bill and Defense Bill make the U.S. President a "communist/fascist president"? What specific portions of each bill alludes to regimes and governments which seem totally foreign to you? Bills go through Congress, right? So if they are approved Congress, then wouldn't Congress be a bunch of "communists/fascists" as well? This is a representative government, isn't it Phokus? Phokus?....... Phokus? Hello!

You are joking, right?

Just because i never said that congress wasn't communist/fascist etc., doesn't mean i think they aren't. Logical fallacy, HELLO? These are bills that Bush and his administration championed. What part of Big Government -> Communism, Limited freedom -> Fascism don't you get?
Ummm ..... last I heard, Congress was elected by the citizenry of this country. So are we all communists, Phokus?

Did you vote, Phokus? If you didn't, then how can you even insinuate a qualified opinion regarding the political landscape of Congress? Can you show us one current member of Congress with communist or fascist party affiliation? Can you?

Please, by all means, show us a recognized, reputable and acknowledged source who can present a plausable argument about communist or fascist party affiliation currently in the executive or legislative branches of the United States government.

We have not yet dropped any MOAB's on Iraq. When we do I'm sure you'll hear plenty about it on the news. We already heard plenty about them dropping those 5,000 lb "bunker busters", and they're not even as exciting to the public as a MOAB.

Are you an idiot? Of course no congress member has any affiliation with a communist or fascist party. However, their actions justify me calling them, and especially bush, communist and fascist. Just because there's a (R) next to bush's name when he appears on TV, that automatically makes him a champioin of smaller government? HAHAHAHAHA, you make me laugh.

I dont recall anyone saying that firing a cruise missile as being a brave act or claiming they are brave for doing so. But one this is certain, it is the result of a far more noble cause than your pecking on a keyboard without a clue.

Actually the closest one is Bernard Sanders. Though he is listed as an independent, he will tell you himself that he is a Socialist, and guess who he generally votes with - that's right, the Dems.

Ah, Phokus! Once again, you are unable to substantiate any of your allegations. And why is this not surprising? So tell me Phokus, are the curious denizens of such communist regimes as North Korea and Cuba able to spout such anti-governmental rhetoric in mass as you have just done? Of course not! The rest of us call it freedom of speech. Therefore, this leads me to believe that you really can't define "communist" or "fascist".

WOW, you picked ONE aspect of freedom and somehow used it as a blanket to try to convince me that we are not a fascist/communist society! The logical fallacy continues!
