Mikest,
The Left have a faulty ability to make comparisons. For example, egregiously and salaciously lumped into the category of "same things" are Hitler's mass murders and barbarities on the one hand; and George Bush's liberation of 25,000,000 Iraqis from Saddam Hussein on the other.
And Abu Ghraib prison humiliation by a small group of miscreants - discovered, revealed to the press and dealt with by the military itself - on the one hand, with Hussein's slicing out of tongues, chopping off of limbs, rape of women in front of their children, and murder - as State Policy - on the other. And on and on.
Comparisons made by the Left will necessarily lack nuance and substantive analysis of details, and this is often done deliberately to advance their agenda. Readers, when you see Democrats make comparisons of anything, engage your Bullsh*t Shields and Prepare for Incoming.

I should point out that, being relativists, Leftists do not believe in an objective moral "High Ground", only the ground that allows them to achieve their agenda.
For example, GWB's saving of hundreds of thousands of Iraqi men, women and especially children from horrible deaths every year is irrelevant in their political calculus.
Such beliefs really sit badly in the guts of those who adhere to our Western culture.

Moderate troll, you must have missed the episode when he attacked my Marine son and called his mother B**tch. My son still would like an apology in person. He is a troll and can't back his play with facts. To even come on here and defend Kerry's actions in NYC speaks volumes.

I love the way you continue with this lie. I attacked YOU for saying that there should be no compassion for INNOCENT deaths and for saying that surrendering Iraqi troops should be murdered. |

Mikest,
Why is it that most "progressives" in democratic rags have to shout "lie" every time they're requested to provide facts to support their arguments?
To paraphrase Thomas Jefferson (considered by most historians to be the founder of the Democratic Party and a known slavemaster). "The affirmative must provide the facts because a negative can't be proven!" _________________ On Sale!

Quite simply because he is lying. You were around for the threads. |

APSB, don't feed him. If you go back a couple of posts he does the shuffle and is trying to change the topic.
At this point the only thing to do is let him go the way of a fart in the wind. |

Goophy,
It's late and I was "baiting" not "feeding" him! You saw his response. Now I'll go to bed and dream of my Lincolnesqe Radical Republican forefathers! _________________ On Sale!

He should probably say the tape was lost in a fire. That would be conveniant. |

All during the 2000 Republican SC Primary, in rally after rally. In that case it was directed at McCain, and it's the reason he can't stand him.

Doug,
I guess you haven't seen McCain's "Ist Choice" ad from Bush/Cheney. Competiton in politics does not necessarily mean a difference in political philosophy. Yes, that's Ok for both parties to do but it doesn't protect them from us pointing out the specific contradictions in the their statements withing, oh say, the last six months instead of harking* back 4 years.
|
Sure, I've seen the ad. McCain's a party (as in Republican) guy. Notice how he OK'd the ad, but just let them use old footage.
Anyway, one of my former POW clients was one of the five POW's who was at McCain's side during that primary. He was disgusted at what he saw, and made it abundantly clear to me as to how McCain felt about his opponent.

OK, I admit it. I don't really care what McCain thinks about Bush. He has his own agenda, too. And...he's not running for President.
You're right, Scott. I should never use "Kerry" and "ashamed" in the same sentence. He's very calculating and he's not releasing the tapes because he thinks they would damage him in some way. Yet they reflect our "values".
I will say this though. It's the first time in my memory that a candidate for President does not want "hollywood celebrities support" to be made as public as possible.
Real cute about the fire, Mike. That's akin to Hillary and "How'd those documents get there? Some of Kerry's records seem to have disappeared, too. Fire? _________________ "If he believes his 1971 indictment of his country and his fellow veterans was true, then he couldn't possibly be proud of his Vietnam service." |

What I meant was that he didn't do a commercial just for the campaign, and just let them (hmmm, I assume he let them) use the footage from that introduction.

Doug,
Please! McCain has endorsed Bush on every major network. Has been campaigning with him...New Hampshire and the Ft. Hood Speech for example. McCain is Bush's Campaign Chairman in Arizona..
Whaddaya want, the homoerotic lovefest of John-John?

He can't stand the guy. That is a fact. He does what he does because he's a team player.

Mikest I don't appreciate being called a liar. Everyone on here saw your posts, I would ask Navy, Marine wife, Lew and a few others to verify your remarks on that thread as some of them sent you PM's addressing your denigrading remarks towards women. So the fact is that you are the liar if you are denying what you said. " I feel sorry for your son, he has a B**TCH for a mother".
Now this thread is about Kerry and his NYC sharade, stop trolling and get on topic or leave. Show the tapes of that event and clear your man!! _________________ Helicopter Marine Attack Squadron 169 which is now HMLA-169. They added Huey's to compliment the Cobra effectiveness.
