		<description>178.  &lt;strong&gt;Oh goodie going to destroy illusions once again.&lt;/strong&gt;

&lt;em&gt;&quot;the president is doing his job the best way he knows how to do it. the SECOND that any person thinks they can do better, then they need to be president.&quot;&lt;/em&gt;

Then 70%-99% needs to be president, since they are all much smarter than the  &lt;strong&gt;PSYCHOPATHIC&lt;/strong&gt; rulers.  You better think of another idea, the idea that an idividual can be mentally insane, and then &quot;what he thinks is best&quot; is not right.
&lt;em&gt;
&quot;Oh, wait, thatâ€™s not going to happen. WHY? Because theyâ€™re not supposed to run the country. I STRONGLY suggest that people stop bashing George W. Bush for the decisions heâ€™s making, because heâ€™s only doing what he thinks is right, and I know that it may appear that itâ€™s at the expense of American lives, but the REAL truth is&quot;&lt;/em&gt;

Again, if you clinically crazy, if you clinally a mad-man, if your someone who is a liar and can not see your hand in front of your face, or cognise simpleton issues--yet they &quot;are doing what they think is right&quot;.  THEY are not supposed to be running the country, and they SHOULD and WILL be critisied!  We are not like you.  And will will not blow off murder, death and monumental errors in judgement because &quot;HE THINKS HE KNOWS WHAT&#039;S RIGHT&quot;.  That is a person who doesn&#039;t think&#039;s ideology!  You&#039;ve bought into a con.
&lt;em&gt;
&quot;that all those talking crap about George W. Bush that are either fighting for America or are not fighting for America are all missing a VERY vital point: WAR IS NECESSARY, because if noone fought in any wars for the side of America, then we wouldnâ€™t have the freedoms we have, would we? If all some people want to do is talk their crap about â€œWar is so terrible, letâ€™s all hug a tree and kiss a whaleâ€, then they need to realize that thatâ€™s not how freedom is established nor protected. Get off of your hippie ass high horses and start realizing that youâ€™re part of the problem, not part of the solution.&quot;&lt;/em&gt;
War MAYBE NECESSARY &lt;em&gt;sometimes&lt;/em&gt;.
I guess it&#039;s news to you that 70%+ of the population knows that Iraq was never a threat to the united states, therefore that war isn&#039;t &quot;NESSESSARY&quot;.  The idea that war is nessessary is for people who don&#039;t do much thinking past states of paranoia.
And about your bigot crap about hippies and how they scare you and your paranoid, maybe you should go hug a tree and perhaps you&#039;d calm down enough to have some sense--like the hippies.</description>

		<description>&quot;MA, I am not quite sure what you are saying. Are you saying it is cool with you that we bomb schools because there might be a terrorist hiding there?&quot;   Comment by JPark 

*******Dear J - Let me explain my argument to you S-L-O-W-L-Y.  DieNowforPeace stated in #108, â€œEid al-Adha - a Muslim holy event meant to celebrate FORGIVENESS. What a slap in the face, â€¦.â€  I was not convinced that Muslims COULD be insulted by executing Saddam in the face of their religious holiday as they seem to have no problem with hiding  weapons in mosques, schools, hospitals, etc.  If they were as Allah-fearing as they assert, the &quot;Religion of Peace&quot; would tolerate no mosque as a weapons warehouse.   (***Please note, J, that I do not mention &quot;bombing of terrorist&quot; in this explanation or the previous notation.  If you are still unclear, please ask one of the many public school &quot;teacher/posters&quot; here at TP for comprehension assistance.)</description>

		<description>All statistics about soldiers saying this and that about George W. Bush handling the war effort in this way or that way aside, the president is doing his job the best way he knows how to do it. the SECOND that any person thinks they can do better, then they need to be president. Oh, wait, that&#039;s not going to happen. WHY? Because they&#039;re not supposed to run the country. I STRONGLY suggest that people stop bashing George W.

Bush that are either fighting for America or are not fighting for America are all missing a VERY vital point: WAR IS NECESSARY, because if noone fought in any wars for the side of America, then we wouldn&#039;t have the freedoms we have, would we? If all some people want to do is talk their crap about &quot;War is so terrible, let&#039;s all hug a tree and kiss a whale&quot;, then they need to realize that that&#039;s not how freedom is established nor protected. Get off of your hippie ass high horses and start realizing that you&#039;re part of the problem, not part of the solution.</description>
		<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>All statistics about soldiers saying this and that about George W. Bush handling the war effort in this way or that way aside, the president is doing his job the best way he knows how to do it. the SECOND that any person thinks they can do better, then they need to be president. Oh, wait, that&#8217;s not going to happen. WHY? Because they&#8217;re not supposed to run the country. I STRONGLY suggest that people stop bashing George W. Bush for the decisions he&#8217;s making, because he&#8217;s only doing what he thinks is right, and I know that it may appear that it&#8217;s at the expense of American lives, but the REAL truth is that all those talking crap about George W. Bush that are either fighting for America or are not fighting for America are all missing a VERY vital point: WAR IS NECESSARY, because if noone fought in any wars for the side of America, then we wouldn&#8217;t have the freedoms we have, would we? If all some people want to do is talk their crap about &#8220;War is so terrible, let&#8217;s all hug a tree and kiss a whale&#8221;, then they need to realize that that&#8217;s not how freedom is established nor protected.

		<description>#108 - &quot;Eid al-Adha - a Muslim holy event meant to celebrate FORGIVENESS.  What a slap in the face, ....&quot; - DieNowforPeace

*******Dear DNfP - I would say a larger insult to Muslims is the terrorist&#039; practice of hiding weaponry in mosques and schools......and lying about what is stored in such buildings as they are carrying out such dangerous booty is an insult to the intelligence of the West.   Boo hooooo!</description>

		<description>for the record, the exact quote is:

&lt;em&gt;â€œWe will have peace with the Arabs when they love their children more than they hate usâ€ - Golda Meir

http://en.thinkexist.com/quotation/we_will_have_peace_with_the_arabs_when_they_love/163272.html&lt;/em&gt;

just something about putting quotation marks around something that is actually paraphrased that bothers me... i should have pointed that out to aphro at the time... just didn&#039;t... the meaning changes little...

		<description>First we get this from MA...

&lt;em&gt;But a funny thing happened on her last birthday - I was outside gardening and two of my children came up. I had been crying and they could see my eyes were a mess. One of my sons said, â€ You know Mom, I know youâ€™re sad because itâ€™s our sisterâ€™s birthdayâ€¦but maybe itâ€™s better she died early - I mean what if she grew up and became a bank robber and was not allowed to go to heaven??â€ His sister just ahead of him, chimed in, &lt;strong&gt;â€œOr worse, Mom,â€¦what if she grew up to be a DemoRAT???â€ I went on to tell them I was a recovering DemoRAT&lt;/strong&gt;â€¦.Arenâ€™t some kids just too precious????
Wishing you and yours a wonderful Easter!!

then came this today...

&lt;em&gt;When it gets right down to it - Golda Meir had it right, â€œThere will only be peace when the Arabs love their children more than they hate us.â€

Mighty Hypocrite,

I guess it&#039;s safe to say that, &quot;There will only be peace, justice, love and tolerence when Republicans love their children more than they hate us (progressives).&quot;
