Hi, fellow enemy combatants.
Evidently, given our new laws, the president can declare anyone an enemy combatant. That means you me, your kin, your priest, rabbi, imam, or your dog.

We all know that George Bush and his fellow thugs are some of the worst people who currently inhabit this planet. But this congress will go down as the most disgraceful group of people who ever went along with fascism.

Didn't the Dems ever hear the word filibuster? What's wrong with them? Do they somehow think that anyone would vote against them because they stood up against an insane administration.

And talking about insane, I've just made the decision to not vote. Why should I? Can anyone tell me the difference between fascists and those who aid and abet them?

Screw the thugs. Screw the Dems. They've sure as hell spent enough time screwing us.

There's the possibility you may not get to read this. I don't think they let you have a computer in your mini-cell at Gitmo or Abu Ghraib. In the meantime, take swimming lessons and see how long you can hold your breath.

4. Well, fasten your seatbelt, cuz you're gonna get blasted by some here.
Not by me, though.

I fully understand.

Some of us come to the line in the sand before others do.

13. YUP, and I'm just stoooooopid, according to one lovely poster
who doesn't seem to understand what "personal attack" means in the rules.

sigh...

Not only is our country going down the tubes, but DUers have a need to tear each other apart over it.

I understand your pain under that sarcasm.... this all hurts like hell.

Did you see the post about the health problems coming from all this stress?

So, don't worry your pretty lil head about the evil...

:evilgrin:

5. Hola, hon. I'm voting ONLY to get Conyers and Kucinich into
a place of power.. assuming of course, that **'s junta doesn't block them at every turn. So I'll vote for a fake Blue Hill if only for that reason.

14. LOL!! I want to smack people that use that line seriously
Edited on Thu Sep-28-06 05:23 PM by Solly Mack
Our system of laws protect the innocent by understanding that sometimes the guilty will walk to keep the innocent from ever hanging for a crime they did not committ...which does happen

and for idiots to use that line...oman..I just wanna slap the poop out of them
