Wouldn't this be considered good news? If so, why is it posted here? I thought only negativity and despair were allowed.

It is good news. Which is why none of the resident libs have anything to say about it.

Good news for America is bad news for Kerry.

And the Pakistanis were leading the charge in the war on terror before Bush took office right?

Nothing to do with Bush my ass. Thats like saying the end of the cold war had nothing to do with Reagan. Oh wait you say that too...

Are you male or female? Just wondering. Because I'd be surprised that any man could be so girly.

bman · 09-27-2004, 02:26 PM

what is girlie about that post..

chiefst2000 · 09-27-2004, 02:29 PM

It's whiny. When you say Powell "Bullied" Pervez it just sounds weak and girly. Then I realized that alot of things you write sound wimpy and effeminate. Its not necessarily an insult. Just an observation.

So what you're saying is that Bush can only claim credit for any success in the War on Terror if American soldiers do the work?

So if you build a coalition (I know that you don't consider it a coalition if it doesn't include France and Germany, but I digress) and one of your allies does something good, it's no credit to you. So the only way that Bush can get credit is to act unilaterally?

I think that you, like many in our country, work from the assumption that if Bush has his hands on it, it must be wrong - because you just don't like him. Rather than looking at the situation itself, then analyzing it and coming to a conclusion, you start with your conclusion and then work backwards from there, trying to come up with arguments to suit your pre-ordained conclusion.

powell BULLIED Pakistan..it's true! we woke up Pervez in the middle of the night and said we expect this and that from you..it's quite funny..he was probably pissin his pants

I actually agree. This is a + for Bush. This is the sort of tactic that gets results. Unfortunately, distractions in Iraq have caused us to lose site of how to actually fight these animals. We can't go it alone. I think Kerry will be much more effective in garnering support from other nations to assist in capturing these people.
