“First, it isn’t a “war!” Read the enabling legislation, “war” is NOT mentioned.”

I was wrong.

To be SURE about the statement, I went back to read every word of the bill. In the last paragraphs, the legislation refers to the War Powers Resolution (War Powers Resolution of 1973 – Public Law 93-148, 93rd Congress, H. J. Res. 542, November 7, 1973), which allows a president to act AS IF we were at war, if the requirements of Public Law 93-148 are met by the President.

I’m not sure if the current corrupt, crooked president has, in fact, met all of the requirements of the law (I doubt it), but saying that the word “war” does not appear in H. J. Res. 114, is WRONG.

The rest of my assertions in comment # 378 are CORRECT!

BTW: My assertions in comment # 379 are also CORRECT!

It couldn’t get past a filibuster in the Senate, or get past a veto if it passed the Senate, but it would set the tone for the 2008 election.

The bill by Sens. Lugar and Warner (which is the topic of this thread) is BOGUS!

“Just as the Dems want Americans to forget that they supported the war and ousting saddam.”

Finally, a lying troll with the guts to PARTIALLY label him/herself for what s/he really is: a LYING TROLL! Well, s/he just admits to the Troll part!

Lying? Yes, LYING!

Lie #1: Dems want Americans to forget that they supported the war

Truth:
First, it isn’t a “war!” Read the enabling legislation, “war” is NOT mentioned.

Second, a minority of Democratic members of the House supported H.J.Res. 114. 132 Democratic members of the House OPPOSED the legislation. 23 Democratic members of the Senate OPPOSED that legislation. To hold the Democrats responsible for what the NeoCons did in overwhealmingly supporting the current corrupt, crooked president in his lying us into the invasion, occupation and destruction of Iraq is very Troll-like.

Lie #2: “…and ousting saddam”

Truth:
NOWHERE in the enabling legislation is “ousting saddam” mentioned as an objective.

PLEASE NOTE: This is NOT a defense of the MANY Democratic members of the House and Senate who voted AGAINST a majority of their Democratic constituents in order to join the NeoCons in their support of the current corrupt, crooked president and his chickhawk handlers. This is a defense of the TRUTH, which the trolls (and “Troll”) choose to ignore.

The War Is a Lie

While I have posted here for a long time and have stuck it out through the many issues we have had with the trolls, yesterday on this thread was the last straw. While I apreciate greatly the news and reports TP puts up to imform us, the comments have gotten to be unbearable most days.

The mocking of a dead serviceman and a serviceman posting a rememberance of his memory really got to me, where most other junk posted by these trolls I have ignored in the past.

Yesterday when I posted my resignation I was at a coffeeshop that I was playing at and was showing one of the audience members who is a National Guard member who just got orders to go to Iraq for his 2nd tour, this site to show him that this is a good place for news of what is really going on. The comments upset him greatly and me, personally I was beyond mad, I was livid.

The troll Gerald gibson and the hijack of Juan C. calling servicemen serving war criminals just tipped it off. As someone who has served and has family serving now, despite not agreeing with the policies, It with the mocking was just too much.

I notice the Mr. P and CT troll are still posting in the new thread and trying to disrupt it today, after many times posting bigotted posts and many violations of the terms. Even though Pee stated he had nothing to do with the stuff yesterday, I do not believe him because he has been too involved in trollish junk in the past.

I am also registered under my same name here, Wayne at dailykos, but I may not even post there for a while at this point. It is time for me to take a hiatus from the blog world for a while and just spend time enjoying my making music in my off times from work.

I will check back here eventually and if things are fixxed, I may even start posting again, but in the mean while Peace and good luck

Mitak Oyasin.

I’ll be ‘the memory of Simone de Beauvoir’

Good luck guys…

Go,

In peace.

I appreciate the compendium of news articles, but commenting on an open forum alongside people who continually violate the Terms of Agreement is neither enjoyable nor enlightening.

I’m already registered at dailykos. I’ll be checking out crooks and liars. Meanwhile, to my trusted friends, you will always be able to contact me.

Thank you for removing most of the disgusting comments from this thread.

Now….

WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO ABOUT IT?

I intentionally, to avoid the filter, spelled the word with spaces and a zero in place of the “o”… And it was up when I stopped posting 20 minutes later.

I think TP doesn’t dedicate resources to administration, period.

They do when it suits them. Weekends don’t seem to suit them as much.

At any rate, I’ve got to pack for a “camping” trip with a bunch of ancient friends up near Mt Rainier. With any luck, there won’t be a computer in sight.

I spent 2 rainy, cloud-shrouded days there a few years ago. The rain and the gloom cleared the morning of the third day (the day I was leaving) and I was amazed at how incredible the mountain is. Enjoy it.

Comment by Mr. Pee is the lamest troll ever

There is an auto filtration program that runs as part of the blog software, which will delete posts containing profanity and, we suspect, certain keywords.

Secondly, Mr. President WAS a participant. Look at the bolded italics posts that are IDENTICAL to his style that he used prolifically in the thread where he cried that he was namejacked. He also switches names, and his claim that he was conveniently ‘absent’ during the exchange, though present just moments before and again just moments after acting all self-righteous? What a freaking liar.

Thirdly, Crooks and Liars it is…

Just as the Dems want Americans to forget that they supported the war and ousting saddam.

Public opinion has changed rather abruptly. With the correct set of circumstances the winds of opinion change and could easily blow back the other way. The Muslims are fanatical enough to provide the catalyst for such a change. As much as I dislike Hillary at least she is smart enough to understand this and is trying to cover all her bases.
