    The Military Fights to Defend our Freedom, or absurdist things the news tells me.

    Hi Sunstone, LOL! Somebody is in denial. So, they were killing us before we started killing them. And now that we are killing them, they (unsurprisingly) are still trying to kill us. There looks to be a constant there: they want to kill us (even when we aren't killing them). So, you agree...

    The Military Fights to Defend our Freedom, or absurdist things the news tells me.

    Hi Badran, Please don't tell me we went to Iraq for oil. Because if that is the case, I would like to see that oil and I believe opponents of the war would be showing supporters of the war that evidence on a continuous loop. But it just isn't there. Whatever reasons the US went to war (and...

    The Military Fights to Defend our Freedom, or absurdist things the news tells me.

    Hi Sunstone, Except that this is false. Where were we killing Muslims when Marine barracks was bombed in Beirut in 1983? Where were we killing Muslims when the WTC was attacked the first time? Where were we killing Muslims when al-Qaeda bombed the embassies in East Africa in 1998? Where...

    Republican Tax Nonsense

    Hi Smoke, They don't need to pay taxes on it; it’s simply passed to another person. If I give you some money, why should the government take a bite out of that? I made money, paid taxes on it and gave it to you, why must you have to pay taxes on that money? I thought liberals...

    Where is the governing strategy?

    Hi Engyo, I saw that too. Many Republicans are just as brain dead as the Democrats. Some get that they can be critical of Obama and the Democrats, but are too cowardly to tell the American people what they would do. These Republicans are the big-government types that believe they can govern in...

    The Military Fights to Defend our Freedom, or absurdist things the news tells me.

    Hi Sunstone, No fabrication needed. You are the one that uncritically accepts the claims of Muslim terrorists (they simply are fighting to defend their Muslim brothers and sisters). I don't need to be a mind reader to know that in the course of our conversations (which have been limited...

    Causes of the US Civil War and Southern Secession

    Hi Yam, Specifically, how did the Confederacy start the War for Southern Independence? I mean, many Southern states peacefully seceded and formed the Confederacy (much the same way the colonies seceded from the Crown to form the United States) and the Union wages a war to preserve the...

    Republican Tax Nonsense

    Hi Revolt, Well, I think that is the problem; the government getting too much money. And it would seem that the death tax would violate even the left's perverted sense of justice. But liberals are the greediest people on the planet so their insatiable appetite for other people's...

    The New Black Panthers are nothing new.

    Hi Mercy, Thomas Sowell proved one aspect of this white privilege argument to be complete bunk. Jesse Jackson every couple of years parades around arguing that lending agencies are racist because whites get accepted for more loans than blacks or Hispanics. This proved the racism of the...

    Obama Moves away from 'Freedom of Religion'

    Hi Sunstone, So, you think this switch in words was just an accident?

    Republican Tax Nonsense

    Doesn't the Death or Estate tax show how greedy liberals are? I mean, the income has already been taxed and now liberals want another bite out of somebody else's money. Wanting what is not yours is pretty greedy to me and the greediest institution on the planet is the US federal government.

    NYT David Brooks makes good point

    Hi T-Dawg, Because liberals cannot campaign as liberals and win national elections. If he ran on what he is doing now, McCain would be president. Don't you see the giant contradiction between 'hope and change' and I'll cut taxes for 95% of Americans? It's much worse. Why do you have...

    The Military Fights to Defend our Freedom, or absurdist things the news tells me.

    Hi lava, Is a government in Iraq where Iraqis can choose their own leaders morally superior to Saddam's Iraq? Is a democratic Iraq good or bad for Muslims? This insane tribalism is why the Arab-Muslim culture is one of most backward in the world. Saddam kills a million people and its the...

    The Military Fights to Defend our Freedom, or absurdist things the news tells me.

    Hi Badran, Is a free, democratic Iraq better for Muslims than a tyranny in Iraq? Except were these Muslims acting in the same way when Saddam was murdering about a million Muslims? I don't think so. There seems to be selective moral outrage here. Oh please, in Saudi Arabia...

    The Military Fights to Defend our Freedom, or absurdist things the news tells me.

    Hi Sunstone, Actually no, you argued that the radical Muslims told the interrogators they were fighting to defend their Muslim brothers and sisters who were being killed by the big bad US. Where is the expertise you speak of? You are just blindly believing what the Muslim terrorist is...

    The Military Fights to Defend our Freedom, or absurdist things the news tells me.

    Hi Luis, But it is true. Why in your progressive enlightened philosophy do you have a moral blind spot for radical Islam? The degrading way women are treated in Saudi Arabia somehow escapes your moral condemnation. The suicide bombers of Hamas somehow elude any mention. The governments of...

    The Military Fights to Defend our Freedom, or absurdist things the news tells me.

    Hi Madhuri, Sunstone mentioned Muslims that are interrogated by the US. I saying that the vast majority of those Muslims are radical. Sunstone and Luis, not surprisingly, hear the claims from these radical Muslims and take them as the gospel truth. I am disputing the claims made by these...

    The Military Fights to Defend our Freedom, or absurdist things the news tells me.

    Hi Luis, I find this hilarious. Of course this proves the axiom made by the great Ann Coulter: liberals will always side with barbarism over civilization. Radical Muslims terrorists make claims against the West and of course you and Sunstone side with the radical Muslim terrorists. Oh...

    The Military Fights to Defend our Freedom, or absurdist things the news tells me.

    Hi Luis, I sure did. He is arguing that the vast majority of Muslim terrorists are fighting us because they believe we are killing their Muslim brothers and sisters. I am arguing that these Muslims (the terrorists) don't really care about their fellow Muslims. First, the Arab-Muslim world...

    The Military Fights to Defend our Freedom, or absurdist things the news tells me.

    Hi Sunstone, Well, at least you admit that the leadership of al-Qaeda wants us dead because of who we are more so than what we have done. Second, I hope you realize that the Arab-Muslim world is one of least educated and most prone to whack-job conspiracy theories (can someone explain...
