WTF is wrong the US

[fett]

I used to throw out a line or two on some of my threads. I would offer the bait and let the frenzy begin. Then, I would pull up a deck chair and sit back and watch, for the most part. It was fun for awhile. But, thowing chum is something I never did and watching SPD do it proved me right.

The real reason that we have to baby sit the middle east is that a few oil tycoons are raking in huge profits and they need the Habibs to sell them the oil. If we just did nothing about Iran and its Nuke program I gaurantee Isreal will destroy Iran if they actually get a bomb. If Isreal attacks Iran you can bet there will be a nasty war there. We need to drill for oil here.

I'm the least touchy guy on the boards.

Geography lessons could help you. Denver is considered on the eastern plains. Gee whiz, in fact the South Platte River runs right through Denver!

I find more entertainment in bating people using hate and intollerant speach than you. So there! LOL

Yeah, I had to edit. I tend to forget. Sadly, seeing as I was born in Colorado...

I'm sure you find it more fun than I do, seeing as how I try not to do it. But then again, it's easier here isn't it? Wouldn't be so easy talking to someone face to face I suspect...

[SouthPlatteDemon]

SPD,
Don't be so touchy. Where's your sense of humor? Eastern Colorado doth not Colorado make. Every one knows Colorado starts at Denver and heads west...

Yep, bating people into conversations using hateful and intollerate speech. That's a fun way to pass the time...

Troll all you want. Don't think it's getting to me though. I love doing this. Like I said, it passes the time at work...

SPD,

I'm not taking this too serious at all. I'm wasting time while I'm at work. I'd either be posting here or in the thread with the kick ass Soloist. Either way, I'm just wasting time...

I didn't call you a young man in any kind of rip. It just kinda came out when I typed that. Sounded like something my dad would say so I wrote it. Get over it...

As for your age, I could care less. It's your attitude that scares me. Unless your just a troll. I'm starting to think that's all your about...

But then again, I've been to the South Platte area many times. I think your just bored. Must be, if that's where your from...

I don't look in the mirror at all. I've lost too much hair and am too damn ugly to waste my time doing that...

But call out something I've wrote and I'll respond. Just like Pavlov's dogs...

Wow you degraded pretty fast. Even trying to insult Colorado! From Iowa none the less! That is really funny.

I've announced before many times that I am a fisherman and that I like to troll. You guys still bite though.

I'm with you Bengal. I do support troops and the initial decision to go back to Iraq. A lot has changed since then and I'm for getting the fuck out of there. Its a no win situation, give them their country back and let them do whatever the fuck they want with it, whether its a democracy or dictatorship I don't really care. We're dealing with a different mindset of people, we don't know who the ememy is, its a different playing field. Way too many of our young people are dying for really no reason as Iraq will become whatever it will become with or without us there. Someone mentioned the 3000 people killed on our soil on 9/11....to me there is no difference in Americans dying in NYC or in a sandpit hell hole we call Iraq.

We're sending way too many weekend warriors over there because our military is depleted. My neighbor is in his early 40's, father of 6 kids, business owner, but now he's in the armpit of the world fighting for what? cheaper oil? Democracy?

I wonder if there were as many supporters of the Vietnam war back in the early 60's? This seems to be going down that road. I wonder what those that think that way will be saying after 10-15 years and over 50K American Troops dead, God forbid it goes that long...

Yep, it's those National Guard Soldiers that I really feel for. But they knew the deal when they signed up. But I can't believe they thought they would be fighting in Iraq so we could cheaply gas up our cars...

That's rather funny. That's like the pot calling the kettle black. Take a look in the mirror young man...

Just so you know, the internet classic cut down of calling someone a young man is really old. I might be older than you. So now you will say something like "You sure don't act like it", so just save your typing.

I think you really are taking this far too serious. If you can't see the humor in all of us arguing for the same end result "Peace and Prosperity" then you really should stop looking in the mirror.

LOL

[Bengal]

Your like a little scrappy dog. Even after your legs have been chewed off you still continue to yap. Hilarious!!!

Evol,
OK, since you called me out, let me retort...

You first bring up Iran being a nuclear power. Who's to say they are not already? I agree that it's not the best thing but where were we when North Korea got the nukes? Are they just as dangerous as Iran with nukes? I would say so. So where are we on that issue...

Wanna do something about Iran? Do what we should have done with Iraq, get more countries on our side so we don't have to bear the brunt of it. That's what got us in trouble in Iraq...

I expected someone to point out that it was Clinton that gutted our military. He sure did. And Bush started a skermish with a soverign country with a severly depleted military. So now we have tons of National Guard soldiers over there fighting a war that was entered in haste. That's not disrespecting them at all. It's the truth. I come from one of the hardest hit states in that area. I see them getting shipped out every week...

(Tell me again that I'm not supporting the troops. As I see it, I want them to come home and not get shot and killed anymore. Funny how those that want to keep them there getting shot at are the ones supporting them. I don't get that)

We have problems in our own country that deserve attention other than Iran. Hence my comment about New Orleans. But you just dismiss that as a liberal rant? Whatever. Can't argue those facts...

The worlds baseball bat to the kneecaps? Ask Osama how good we are at doing that. Yep, he's still safe, releasing videos and dying his beard. Yep, good work there. If we were such a super power, we would have finished what we started there before biting off more than we could chew...

I'm not burying my head anywhere. And I'm not towing the party line like you seem to be...

Right wing hysteria. I've had enough of it for one day...

What will kill more than just you is if we do nothing.

Ask the citizens of Nagasaki, or Hiroshima. Or Hitler, or Saddam Hussein and his army... oh wait, I guess you can't anymore.

Wow, I guess I can tell my friends who happen to be full time military that they can come home now, since they aren't actually fighting over there.
Good way to insult our brave men and women of all services.



See above. Ask Saddam and the military who used to run the country about that. It's all a mop up operation until the country gets stable. This is not a quick or easy process.

It's obvious you have a political bias that is clouding your judgement to see the dangers ahead in letting Iran become armed with nukes. It's ok though, there's people looking out for your and everyone else's well being!


We are not alone, even France, yes France got in on this one saying that the idea of a nuclear armed Iran is an "unacceptable risk to stability in the region and in the world."

8 different countries in the middle east have sought our protection against growing aggressive moves from Iran. And 6 (the big 5 plus Germany) countries are forming another round of (sigh) resolutions against Iran.

I think that leaves little, dare I say *NO* doubt what the world thinks needs to be done in Iran.
We are the world's baseball bat to the kneecaps, we do the majority of the dirty work, with help from other brave countries who do send actual troops and never get enough attention over their sacrifice. We are the A-team, the big kid on the block, the ones you don't want to see coming after you.
Super? You betcha!
It's a good thing we got people looking out for you and keep your head protected so you can bury it in the sand and pretend that nothing out there is going to happen and never make a move to keep it that way.

You really should be thanking America's finest and bravest for going out there and keeping you safe enough to do that!

Now that's the kind of propaganda this thread needed to finally die. From either side.
