Sadly, your assertion about obliteration is not true. From what I've
heard so far, only _ONE_ confirmed Al Queda member has been killed
despite over 100 deaths there at the hands of the US military
presumably under orders of their commander, the eriadite Mr. Bush. :-(

Welcome to World War III.

Not even 1. http://www.cnn.com/2007/WORLD/africa....ap/index.html

we've been in WW III since the Soviets invaded Afghanistan. You could
even argue the Iranian revolution back in '79.

As for piloting the AC-130, basic turn around a point that we all
learned early on. :^) Except in executing that ground reference maneuver
you are a cloudburst of lead.

World War III was the Cold War. This is World War IV.

Funny. Bet Mr. Bush can spell "erudite," even if Larry can't. Funny
also how heavily armed a lot of those "civilians" seem to be.

Welcome to World War III.

Quit spouting the terrorist line, Larry, or tell us how to fight a war
without killing civilians.

I suspect there was a failure of intelligence here. I know if I had a
grudge against my neighbor I'd be sure to tell the local Special OPS
guys that they were Al Qaeda. :^)

I speak for myself alone.

I notice you didn't take issue with any of my assertions.

I guess you can't face the truth.

....Just as you chose not to address any of Jay's actual questions. As usual,
you take any opportunity to spout anti-Bush/anti-military rhetoric. Really,
it's OK. It's part of your persona we've come to expect.

I just thought Mr. Honeck might want to know that what he wrote was
incorrect. Does he really need you as a spokesman?

As usual, you take any opportunity to spout anti-Bush/anti-military rhetoric.

If you choose to infer that from what I wrote, it is you who is
characterizing the situation that way. I merely stated the facts as I
believed them to be at the time.

And why do you see calling Mr. Bush 'erudite as being anti-Bush?

Really, it's OK.

So now you're giving me your approval to exercise my right to free
speech? Please.

It's part of your persona we've come to expect.

Who are among the group you refer to as 'we'?

Well, that one terrorist sure managed to put up a heck of a fight, eh?
Even the combined armies of Somalia and Ethiopia were unable to enter
the area. But, come on, even bin Laden claims to be a "civilian." No
doubt, when he is killed, you will be bewailing yet another "civilian"
death. The other assertion was that Bush was "eriadite," which I
understood to be a sarcastic reference to your belief that he is
stupid. It would help if you would learn to spell before you start
calling other people stupid.

Your anti-Bush rhetoric is extremely cynical. It would be interesting
to know if your views differ from that of the terrorists in any
material whatsoever. So far, on this group anyway, you have agreed with
them 100%.

You might want to think about some of the idiocy you and the rest of
the extreme left are spouting. With any luck at all, you all would get
elected and you would be left with the problem of actually having to do
something instead of heckling from the back rows.

I'm not spouting any idiocy; I'm reporting the facts as I understand
them to be.

It is you who should consider the words of a wise man who's quoted
throughout the world: "Turn the other cheek"

Oh I forgot; Mormons don't follow his teachings. They are polygamists
who believe their special underwear is fundamental to their faith. :-)
