Just a bad mood
I must make an initial confession, I have been in a bad mood for a few years now, darn, glad that is off my chest. At least that is what a niece of mine recently informed me in her moment of teenage angst regarding my lack of understanding. I kind of like the concept myself to be honest with you. It sort of fits the Ranter image. So with that confession fresh in our minds let’s talk about people, Senator John McCain has always been a staunch supporter of the military and who would expect less from a hero of this caliber, but his latest attack to draw a line in the election sand with President Bush leaves a bad taste in my mouth. Let’s all be honest here for a moment, we all know we got a tad more than expected in Iraq, the only people not agreeing to that statement is the White House. Of course they need to play politics and that is expected, but the sad commentary is the only people who knew this was going to be a long protracted problem was us old timers from Viet Nam. I did not know of one veteran that did not soapbox to me those exact sentiments once President Bush announced the invasion was launched. In addition, we all know exactly why it occurred as well, war is unexpected pure and simple. The blitzkrieg lightning run into Baghdad was a classic maneuver and it worked as planed, but guess what boys and girls, the military blended into the population and guerilla tactics began which led to the present unrest. There are two warring religious factions that have fought and hated one another since the dawn of the sand in the desert and we are in the middle. It is a war and things happen, not always, as we wish, but they do. Along these same lines, I can safely assume that John McCain always knew there was a possibility of being shot down and captured, but when the reality comes into play, he never really thought it would happen. Its war, things happen. One more comment totally unrelated to anything I can ever possibly discuss of any importance whatsoever, Tom Cruise supposedly broke Paramount Studios and was fired. So what, who cares! My comment to that news that coincidently was headline on FOX and CNN is he should have spent more time on the circuit talking about his movies instead of jumping on couches and hollering at Matt Lauer on television about mental illness and medication. It was nice to learn that Tom was also so well schooled in the medical area of the mind; Scientology did well for him in that area while teaching him about his alien DNA. However, the simple fact remains, who cares? I sure as heck don’t, but brought it up simply to make a point of saying he did it himself. We reap what we sow. I always liked that one that’s why I set a link for it in the rare case there is one person on the planet who did not hear it before. I know, you don’t have to tell me, “Ranter, you are being GLIB!” (Provided that one in case anyone wants to see Tom being an expert on mental health on national television and not jumping on couches screaming his love to the world.

This somethin from Steve, at HOG ON ICE:
The Romans conquered Carthage and salted the soil so the Carthaginians couldn't grow food. Then they left. The French sodomized the Germans at Versailles and then went home. The North beat the South in the Civil War and then occupied it and plundered it until they felt like leaving. But the US crushed a vile, malignant regime and then stuck around trying to bring genuine, lasting liberation. And George Bush is faulted for that, by weepy, compassionate liberals who think we don't do enough to help foreigners. Go figure.
In my opinion, the only thing George Bush failed to predict was that foreign terrorists would pour into Iraq and feed a futile resistance. However, as numerous pundits have pointed out, this benefits the US by drawing hostile idiots within range of our guns, on foreign soil. The word "flypaper" has been used. Angry Muslim schmucks who might otherwise be targeting American tourists and trying to bomb our cities are dying like sheep in the streets of Iraq.
Somehow, this is a bad thing.
The left says we "created" these terrorists, and they call them "insurgents," which is bizarre, since the new Iraqi government is the real insurgency.
Earth to liberals: you have to resist your enemies in order to survive in this world. If it causes more people to attack you, it doesn't mean you "created" new enemies. It just means you smoked out existing enemies.
The terrorists in Iraq aren't fighting us because they have high-minded moral objections to what we did there. They're fighting us because they're violent idiots from backward cultures. They don't fight us because our war is immoral. They fight us because they're stupid and vindictive. I say let's keep killing them as long as they continue to present themselves. Better there, where they face our volunteer troops, than here, facing unarmed civilians.
me again: Just remember that McCain is a RINO, and that John Kerry wanted him as a runnin mate in the 2004 election !! Nuff said !!
Tom Cruise got his ass in a sling for badmouthin the psyciatric society over em dopein kids into a drug induced zomby state, and we all know that the psy's are a Liberal bastion .. He should have stuck with bashin the OTHER religions, and left the moonbats alone !! I aint gonna lose any sleep over it, one way or the other..
The liberal media assholes are bashin Centanni and FOX for their "better than us" attitudes.. "We report, you decide" is not allowed in liberal circles.. They believe that "we will tell YOU what WE want you to think" .. Dont count on the media to circle the wagons around Centanni and Wiig, cause they figger its just their TUFF LUCK !!
I never have gotten an email from you.. Did you get my addresses I sent you ?? I couldnt get you gmail to work for me..
Not unarmed Wild Bill. Gun safe is full. Carry permits abound.
