Still, ya gotta feel sorry for them. It must be very frustrating to be consistantly outwitted by a "useless chimp".
They won't shut up. They actually welcomed this disaster as another opportunity to bash President Bush. We need to make sure that they get busted on all their stupid pronouncements, such as the one made by Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., and show the world that they are a bunch of anti-American socialist traitors.
By any means necessary.
They consistently put party before country.
I can't believe as a Brit you don't understand the deep-seated liberal PC nonsense that goes on here.
We are soooooo worried about hurting (literally) OR "offending" any1 that it stifles law enforcement. I thought that was the case in GB too. It's almost a joke to have law enforcement at all, when at best they get to do "catch&release" of crooks. And are villified and "investigated" and even tried every single time they should actually shoot some scumbag homie drug dude w/a gun on the big-city street corner. Instead of applauding getting rid of pure scum, the local "citizens" cry out about "racist" "trigger-happy" cops (even when they're black) who shoot everything in site, and that they should be hung.
Top it off w/lawsuits every time something like this happens - never mind you can sue McDonald's for spilling coffee on yourself.
That's the attitude that pervades here, and we're crippled by it. Regardless of terror attacks; the attitude really hasn't changed.
Actually he had already given up on Britain after the Luftwaffe lost the 'Battle of Britain' to the RAF and set his sights on the USSR. Then America joined the war.
maybe I should have mentioned this "cliche"--we Americans don't speak the Queen's English thanks to our brave troops.
Most Britons don't speak the Queen's English either so we have something in common.
btw: the men who fought in WWII don't see it as "cliche stuff".
No the cliche is that America "liberated" Britain. This is quite clearly factually untrue.
you didn't directly say that the troops were coward~~ you implied it.....right after your proclamation of astonishment, comparison to Indonesia and how British troops would never not go down a street b/c of dangerous men...can you imagine!---you bought the line and perpetuated the lies. you are complicit.
Any soldier who refused to go stay in an area of America because it was dangerous is a disgrace. Agree? If it never happened there is no problem.
It is revealing it's ugly communist head.
It is a shame. I know there are people who are even heroic out there, who won't get publicity. I know there are people who are just plain DOUBLE victims - of the hurricane and the scum who cower them on a daily basis as it is and now are out in the open. They won't get publicity - esp. by the MSM.
LOL did you see Shep Smith on Fox y-day? He was at some initial evac point and asked an older black blind man (who already mentioned coming w/his non-blind grandson) "how difficult was it to get out (to & w/the rescuers)?" He said IT WAS EASY!
He made Shep look like a fool. I bet even Fox won't like to show things like that again.
Life is a pendulum. It has swung too far in the PC direction, but it will swing back.
As an insider, I have a few remarks to whiney A$$hole Brits like yourself, when you dare to criticize our military and our government based on liberal news.
1. My ancestors didn't kill enough Brits in our Revolutionary War and the War of 1812. If they had killed more, maybe you wouldn't be around.
2. My Dad, his friends kept the Germans from invading Britain in WWI. Later my uncles and older cousins saved your sorry whining a$$es in WWII with their bodies and blood. My parents, grandparents and non service people paid a lot of money to keep England afloat which we were never paid back during WWII.
3. Our constitution prevents our military from carrying out military activities like you are asking for. That is the responsibility of the La. National Guard. The person who is responsible for ordering riot control and shooting of looters is the governor. The governor is a left wing Politically Correct Governor, and she will not order this response. President Bush can't order that response by our constitution.
4. Our constitution came about after we won the revolutionary war. A war which was started by your STD insane King George. Our founding fathers made sure that Brit law which allowed the uncontrolled use of National Military forces in the home country would never be used in America.
Last but not least, many of those so called cowards in the La National Guard have served honorably in tours in Iraq. They weren't cowards then, nor are they cowards now.
Your whiney a$$ed accusations have put you below the French Frogs.
Could you imagine the liberal outcry if they did actually shoot the looters?
Uhhmmmm, he was quoting an "alternate fantasy" speech by George SENIOR from Hurricane ANDREW. Who only had ONE term and was in his "first" term.
But since that's obviously not the case, then we need to turn all of LA into a federal colonly, since it looks like if the least thing goes wrong there, it's all Bush's fault.
Can an American FReeper rebute this hysterical nonsense, and point out it's mile-wide flaws, so I'm not called 'anti-american'!
Regardless of ideology some people just want to blame others.
Saw your last line in #86.
Read my comments again. PC rules here. PC tells those "disgraceful" guys NOT TO SHOOT and, by extension, to extricate themselves from situations where it seems they'd have no other choice!
Blame the lib politicians who come up w/this namby-pamby crap of "don't offend the criminal (he just had a bad life)" for when the soldiers "leave".
I honestly think that was unnecessary.
Frankly I don't see where cooper was doing anything particularly offensive. He was just asking innocent questions. Maybe frustrated questions, but innocent nonetheless.
cooper, Please don't judge us all by some who go off at the slightest.
And Grampa, while I respect your opinions very much (in the past, etc), I just don't think it's good to go making more enemies, esp. when there really isn't any insult going on anyway.
Lets face it folks, this event will be used by the MSM and the dems to continue their coup. Prepare yourselves.
I've been trying to drive home to him just how ridiculous and absurd our "niceness" clauses have become. ;-)
So true.
