I Can't Support The War On Terror

Sorry folks, but I can no longer lend my support to the War on Terror. I'm tired of being lied to by our elected leadership. What am I talking you about, you ask? Specifically, when I'm a told by the President of the United States, that Islam is a "Religion of Peace".

How am I supposed to square that statement with reality? How am I supposed to support the decision and policies of our government in waging war when our leaders can't even begin to tell the truth about the enemy we're fighting?

If the president fears he may offend someone by telling it like it is, namely that we are at war with Islam, then we may as well pack up and send our troops home.

Although not a great fan of Louis Farrakhan (just between you and me, I think the man is nuts) I viewed a video of the man giving a talk in Fresno some years ago. He made a comment concerning truth, and I paraphrase, "If you're hurt by the truth, then you must be the guilty party".

If the Islamic community is hurt by the truth of their so-caled religion of peace, then they are the guilt party, and until our leaders start telling the truth abou this gutter religion, I'll have to refrain from supporting the cowardly facade they call the War on Terror.

P.S. And for any assclowns who might bemoan and decry that my argument is not supportive of the troops, kiss my grits.

Lots of bites.

You are cracking me up. You really ought to reel one or two in. Leaving them on the line as chum just does not seem sporting. Anyway, have fun and please ping me if you get a school whipped into a feeding frenzy. Especially if it is the school of '04.

mmmm, an opus it is.

IB4TZ!

[nopardons]

It sure looks like one.

[Always Independent]

Hilary Clinton supports the president in the WOT and thats good enough for me;-/

[nopardons]

No, actually they don't. WE have had SLEEPER TROLLS with earlier dates and they didn't "deserve respect" either.

Nobody, not even if they were with Jim, setting FR up and have a member # of 2, deserves any kind of respect, after posting garbage like this!

[nopardons]

Yes, that is exactly what he is...a damned COLLABORATOR!

[Treader]

lol...ya'll gonna hate the next part.

You don't know what you're talking about,
nor do you possess the literary skills to say
anything of any consequence, which makes
you the last person who should ever attempt to
deliver sage advice, so there's nothing
left but to tell you to

Kiss My Grits!

Sometimes it is more fun to watch than actually fish.

What DID he tell you last week, after the London-plot???

[danamco]

A reasonable question. I believe in order to wage an effective war we have to first identify who we are at war with. If for whatever reason we refuse to or cannot do this, then we shouldn't send our young men and women into harms way on a false premise.

Since YOU are over there, shouldn't you have a clear picture as who to identify in this battle???

[Elyse]

Well,anyway, I had fun reading the keywords attached to the moronic post. As in this case, the keywords are just the best part of a post sometimes.

[danamco]

I work for an American defense contractor, the money is good and best of all it's tax free. At least I'm not a lawyer.

WOW....always follow the money!!!

...Hmmmm???

I think you are out in tooooo deep water, your are drowning!??!

[expatguy]

Im sure there were good Nazis as well.

So you know good Muslims...

Im not sure I understand the point you are trying to make. Perhaps you can elaborate.

[Elyse]

Oh, by the way, he's been a Freeper since 9/14/99 (longer than you(7/2/04) or me(9/29/00)

Not judging on whether the original post is zotworthy, just saying, I've been a member of DU for a very long time, but that doesn't make me Dummie.

Thanks for the corroboration. Try pronouncing violinz with emphasis on the zed while looking at a picture of Gilda Radner.

[RedRover]

...makes me wonder what kind of people they're letting post on FR these days.

Generally, the people who post here don't advocate cutting and running. Why would that be surprising?

Even a kissieassed war against the rabid Islamofaciest terrorists is better than pretending that there is no threat at all from the peace loving, blood thirsty, Muslim terriorist sonofabitches!
