Surely they are not trotting out the “it’s all Clinton’s fault” argument, are they?

Thanks President Bush!!!

How does our soldiers getting killed in Iraq benefit their families?

That’s a tough question. Here’s one I bet you’ll find easier to answer: how do our soldiers getting killed in Iraq benefit YOUR family?

This is the neocon ethos in a nutshell, everybody — what benefits me is what’s best. Screw the common good.

I think its clear that a mentally healthy person wouldn’t be such an easy dupe for this crap. But our President is no match for such master manipulators. I wish every person in America would read this:

I think it’s a sacrifice you and your family should be more than willing to make to ensure an uninterrupted supply of that precious oil. If you actually cared about your family as much as you claim to, you’d be signing up right now to go and “do whatever it takes.”

But obviously you don’t care about your family. You’re content to let them suffer the unhappyness of high gas prices, without doing a single thing to help. Oh, sure, you talk a good game. “I’ll do ANYTHING,” you say. But that’s obviously a lie, because you refuse to do a simple thing like fight for your country — and your family.

And I find that shameful. You’ve not only let your family down, but you’ve let your country down. How do you sleep at night, knowing that you care so little about your family’s well-being?

I wonder how that idea can be conveyed to politicians.

When the mentally ill acquire power (i.e. a President and VP who are sociopaths) it becomes a situation beyond critical. I’d like all the Presidential candidates to be evaluated by mental health professionals before being allowed to run.

In professional football teams often put their potential recruits through tests (some bizarre) that’ll give them understanding as to how they’ll respond when given a multi-million dollar contract. They know that many of these kids grew up dirt poor and they want to understand if they’ll self-destruct by becoming a millionaire overnight. The teams can’t afford to throw away millions of dollars on recruits that fizzle out.

Is it too much to ask that we put our Presidental candidates through psychological evaluation? After all we’re talking about much more then millions of dollars. We’re talking about being Commander in Chief and the Nuclear Briefcase. If we luck out and survive the current sociopathic president will we wise up and never allow a mentally ill person to become president again?

Excellent post, Larry from C-

You nailed his personality.

Anything but join the Army, that is. So I think you mean “personally I will do ALMOST anything to guarantee the happyness and well-being of my family.”

Perhaps the Army isn’t your thing. I suggest you try http://www.marines.com/ instead. Semper Fi, No one in particular! You go get that oil!

i think “divided” like a single-celled organism is more like it.

I assumed he was talking about his mommy and daddy.
