I am very impressed with your site. The quality of the design and content makes it a real winner! Thanks again for a great site and a great resource on the net.

I just wanted to tell you that your site is really awesome and is of a fantastic quality. The content is great and I will be returning.

I-WRONG-I,
You don’t run this website nor, as far as I know, a holder of elected office; so only your bloated ego has judged you in the position to decide what is legitimate dissent. And from what I can tell from your usually misspelled rantings so far, you don’t regard any dissent as legitimate.
I have never called for the end to private property or any other major tenet of the Communist manifesto; so you’re assuming I must be a “commie” is about as silly as your accusations that a very fair-skinned, well-educated Caucasian woman would be sympathetic to Al Qaeda and the Taliban. But then stupid Fascists don’t have much of an imaginaiton, do they?

Bullshit. Stop with the fucking stereotypes. In fact, you could use some history written by actual historians and not the Roman Catholics. Go read ‘A people’s History of the United States” by Howard Zinn. All 700+ pages. I did. While driving cross country. Was amazing.

Barbary pirates? Are you serious? You read a book 30+ years ago by a guy who died 200 years ago and you think nothing has changed since then? YOU shouldn’t be voting. However, I,and all the women who post here, should. And not a damn thing you can do about it.

It’s a guy thing, like informed voting.

And scratching yourself in public? Please. Your Judeo-Christo-Muslim tree of patriarchal religion expects women to be barefoot, pregnant, and ignorant. You support a religion that encourages women to be stupid, and then you get pissed off that the women you meet are all stupid. You can’t have it both ways.

You really should move your bed away from the wall if you’re going to keep getting upon that side of it…

One of the reasons women shouldn’t be allowed to vote is they have no real interest in subjects that are a requirement for a competent, well educated and reasonable voter. Little things like history. The problem with left wing men is that they are too much like women. Look up Jefferson’s solution to the
Barbary Pirates. The parallels to this day to the penchant for the Muslim headchoppers to be liars thieves and murderers to the appeasing EuroWeasels is quite extraordinary. I read a book about the Barbary Pirates when I was 9 years old. It’s a guy thing, like informed voting.

“Dissent is the highest form of patriotism,” before you go on another one of your rants accusing everyone who is not a Bushevik of being a traitor and whatever other insult your filthy mind can dig up.

I’ll decide who the traitors are around here and what constitutes legitimate dissent. Since you think that anyone who disagrees with you is a Bushevik (unusual choice of terms for a ratbastardcommie to use) I’d have to say you are probably a traitor. Not unlike the “peace activists” our troops just saved who promptly held a new conference and called them killers, child molesters etc., etc.

My guess is Lora you’re not smart enough to be a patriot or a traitor but you do make one hell of a good “useful idiot” for the Marxists and a fine example of a Walking Dead Loser on the Filthy Left. Please don’t breed.

I-WRONG-I,
Are you saying that Thomas Jefferson was “willing to kick these militant, thieving murdering ragheads (eg. Muslims)?” Up until now I’ve never heard that Muslims were regarded as a problem for late 18th and early 19th century Americans.
As for Dumbya Bush, he is willing to send other people and other people’s children to fight Muslims; neither he nor any of his brothers or any of their collective offspring have actually been willing to fight. They are all chickenhawks like you.
Incidentally, since you seem familiar with Thomas Jefferson, you might recall his words, “Dissent is the highest form of patriotism,” before you go on another one of your rants accusing everyone who is not a Bushevik of being a traitor and whatever other insult your filthy mind can dig up.

Senior Muslim clerics in Afghanistan are demanding that Abdul Rahman be executed for converting from Islam to Christianity. They warn that if he is not executed by the state they will incite the people to kill him….

Marlon Brando has a lot to say about terrorism, I think:

The nervous townsman flicks his eyes back and forth between the invading motorcycle gang and Marlon Brando, their leader in black leather. “What are you rebelling against?”

The screen legend scowls and revs his engine: “What do you got?”

What distinguishes for me a terrorist from a freedom fighter is what they do when they finally have something to lose….whether its how deciding how much money to spend on milk for Belfast schools instead of how many petrolbombs you can make from the average milk cart in the case of the IRA, to a Bill of Rights for the USFF.

Terry the Turtle and Gregor – nice debate, but I still say that a terrorist leader like Saddam and the Taliban are oppressive, bad on human rights, especially women, and dangerous for the world. Terrorist today are nothing like the founding fathers. The founding fathers didn’t gas their own people and blow up other people that don’t agree with their politics. A democracy is the only fair way to run a country. Everybody gets a vote. There is not one person deciding all the laws and deciding who is beheaded and who lives.

It started with the creation of Israel despite the lack of unamious support. The people hell bent on making it happen could not get the support of the middle east so they just said screw it and did it anyway…. it has been non stop vioence ever since.

The US Continental Congress was elected by the Colonies and they wrote a charter that called for the removal of a foreign power from their soil. They also fielded a military militia that did not conform to the unofficial conventions of warfare of the day. Were they terrorists? What’s the difference between Hamas and the US Founding Fathers at this point in Hamas’s history? Maybe the only difference at this point is that the US Founding Fathers won and got to write the history books….

Given that 90%+ of the insurgents in Iraq today are Iraqis mostly Sunni or Baathists or both, it seems to me what you have is a civil war – Sunnis against Shia with Kurds staying out and a small Al-Qaeda contingent stirring it up.

You are confusing Iraq and Afghanistan. On women’s rights:
Historically, Iraqi women and girls have enjoyed relatively more rights than many of their counterparts in the Middle East. The Iraqi Provisional Constitution (drafted in 1970) formally guaranteed equal rights to women and other laws specifically ensured their right to vote, attend school, run for political office, and own property.(…)
All illiterate persons between ages fifteen and forty-five were required to attend classes at local “literacy centers,” many of which were run by the GFIW. Although many conservative sectors of Iraqi society refused to allow women in their communities to go to such centers (despite potential prosecution), the literacy gap between males and females narrowed.
