“I read all that. I just noticed that there were no addresses or name listed on the site.”

The company knows what terrorists are capable of. You would prefer they make it easy for the terrorists to find them?

OK, found it at #73 posted on 03/12/2008 8:23:12 PM PDT by grey_whiskers.

> Full Disclosure: “Jobs that Americans won’t do”

Now I’m not so sure that’s such a good plan, there. As I wrote, I don’t agree with everything the President says and does.

However, without being privy to every secret thing that is going on, perhaps we need to be patient on the Iranian issue? There’s more than one way to skin a cat, they say.

If we act hastily as some have suggested and annihilate Iran, I think we would lose our allies and turn every man’s hand against us. We were so careful in our attacks in Iraq, which I bet is one reason why we get some tips on weapons caches and personnel.

Still, it’s great grief to lose good, wise men because we’re busy bending over backwards.

Sometimes....sometimes we really do need to be subtle and patient. Very patient.

Now I suppose one question (among many) is: will our nation turn its back before a long term strategy can bear fruit in Iraq; as was done in Vietnam?

The reason I'm so frustrated with the President is twofold.

First, he's inarticulate.

Second, he's tone deaf.

Look at his speech on the economy. He said a lot of the right things, factually. But paradoxically, his delivery made him look like a simpering buffoon while at the same time going right over the head of his intended audience.

Or at the Dubai ports. We were going to give this concession to one of the most modern, un-jihadist places in the Middle East, and so reward them for their modernity, as well as (the quid pro quo) gain a foothold to surreptitiously inspect packages and crates.

But the President just put his foot down on his *own* say so and starved his defenders of any material.

Then you have Harriet Miers. I even wrote a vanity defending this (although I know now my reasoning was wrong). As it turns out, Miers had written many of the anti-terrorism regulations, and would be the 5-4 margin to "rubber stamp" them on the Supreme Court, thereby undercutting the efforts of the libs to render the country unsafe. But (other than the ham-handed explanation that he was throwing red meat to the Evangelicals) Dubya was silent.

So again, all he did is cut the ground out from under his supporters.

Full Disclosure: Again, "jobs Americans won't do" my ass.

My guess here is he is trying to keep Mexico from imploding and following Raul Castro and / or Chavez. Or (for lack of any other guess) the Mexican government has photos of him in compromising positions with "Kristen". Or (I hope not) he really believes in the North American Union...

Cheers!

Americans lived and worked in Iran for many years, peacefully.

Before Carter.

Bush has...no balls.

You summed up the problem right there. When your enemies begin to believe that you have become impotent and lack the will to fight, they will act with impunity, and sneer at you while doing so. Bush fits that definition now, whether anybody likes it or not.

We should make a B-52 run over Tehran for this...dropping live pigs.

Pigs like Hell. Tehran should join Hiroshima and Nagasaki in the history books, which would make for one damn fine Trifecta, even if the third detonation is nearly 63 years late.

But that would require someone in the White House with forged steel balls.

Even John McVain's 'bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb bomb Iran' joke was nothing but rhetorical fodder.

Still good stuff coming out on an old yet current subject via AntiMullah.

And the page you are adding has a LINK to another eight or nine articles on this mealy mouth idiot = Carter, the American architect of today’s terrorism worldwide.

IMHO he has more blood on HIS hands than Ossama bin Laden.

cheers,

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said the nation’s ability to lead the world depends on its morality, not military might.
“We will begin to reassert that moral authority by attempting to override the president’s veto next week,” said Pelosi, D-Calif.

Hey Lugosi, ridding the world of the scum sucking, baby-killing, goat-f***ing vermin who cut the fingers off hard-working Americans who, BTW, WERE NOT COMBATANTS IN UNIFORM, would be the moral thing to do don't you think, you stupid twit?

A lot of people don't realize how long we have been fighting radical muslims.

General Blackjack Pershing did that very thing in the Phillipines in 1912.
It worked for awhile, but memories are short, radical muslims are patient, and most Americans are complacent and limp-wrsted p*****s when it comes to doing the things that really work.

Tehran should be neutralized before January 20, 2009, lest the jihadists and their useful infidels sap our national will and put America in mortal danger..

Hindsight being 20/20, Tehran should have been nuked on the afternoon of January 21st, 1981. If President Reagan could have seen into the future to view the world situation today, I am confident that is exactly what he would have done.
