But Americans in reading or watching the news would be totally unaware of the American history which demonstrates that Senator Biden’s remarks are foolish, from the MSM coverage of Bush’s speech.

And then many are foolish enough to try to make a comparison between the founding of this nation of states to Iraq's third 'founding' this century when in fact it is impossible.

[Congressman Billybob]

Why do you persist in contending that history is irrelevant? You are aware, I hope, that the Framers looked back as much as 2,000 years into the history of Roman and Greek city states, in deciding on the proper forms of American government that they were creating.

Were they wrong to do that? Or, are you wrong to ignore George Santayana's caution, "Those who forget their history are condemned to repeat it"?

If you want more recent history that even you could not decry as irrelevant, look at the "nation-building" which General MacArthur in Japan and General Eisenhower in Germany, after WW II. Germany is especially relevant, in light of the assassinations and sabotage that the werewolves carried out for years after being created by the Nazis to do exactly that, after the end of the war in Europe.

The Continental Congress, the Articles of Confederation and the US Constitution. Seems we too are on our "third" founding as well BB.

Really sad how childish so many elderly Americans, such as billbears, are clinging so desperately to their delusions about Iraq. They seem despeate to avoid the reality that it is the same failed ideology of the "Realists", like billbears, which created this Islamic Fundamentalist mess to start with

Really sad that certain Freepers lack the emotional or intellectual ability to admit how grotesquely wrong their Neo-Isolationist dogma is in a post 9-11 world. Sorry but the bad men are not going to go way just cause YOU want to hide under your bed and wish them away BB.
