abotha5: I have lost trust and respect in almost all politicians on both sites. This is no longer a partisan issue. We are fighting against greed and corruption. The politicians at the top of the US government no longer represent the will of the people and they must be voted OUT.

CNN is just as corrupt as FOX, if anyone here still watches and/or trusts the mainstream media (MSM) for news, I feel sorry for you. The mainstream media only shows a distorted window into the truth.

How can you say Liberals hate America?

I could argue that the Neo-Conservatives hate America too because of the harm they've done to the respect of the US worldwide, and how they've been killing the dollar..

But that would be a distraction.

Please realize this is not about Liberals. This is not about Conservatives.

This type of argument is meant to divide us.

If the US wants to really take its country back, they must hold their representatives accountable to the will of the people.

It's not because of that that they're despicable. The reason why they earned my contempt is that they went and passed such things as the Patriot Act which completely runs roughshod over the Constitution and individual rights.
The reason he went into the war is because the United Nations had their fingers up their butts for 10 years with the Iraq situation.
The reason he went into the war is Dick Cheney and the 80 billion dollars of contracts Haliburton has to rebuild Iraq after the war. What's right for Haliburton is right for America- wrong!
We're paying for that with our taxes and the lives of our youth.

Also, in a war climate, people are going to overlook any "necessary security measures" the government decides to ram down their throat. With the powers given the Federal government through the Patriot Act and other post 9/11 bills, you have the framework in place for a police state. Is this what you want?
I would much rather prefer the religious right than the atheist left.

Where did you get the idea that the left is atheist? And, isn't separation of church and state part of the Constitution? It was the last time I looked.
The republicans will once again win the Presidency. Liberals (Democrats) just like to hate America and will lose the election because of their stance on the Mexican question.
Au contraire, we love America. However, we believe in letting the people have the power, and not big business/special interest groups.

Preposterous. You're basically saying that anyone who disagrees with the direction America is going at this point in history "hates" America.

So "staying the course" and agreeing to keep our country in the state it's been changed to by this administration is the only way to express one's admiration for this country.

So admitting you need to make changes to something must also mean admitting you hate it.

Great form of reasoning you've got there. :roll:

I can't believe any of you are paying that shitwit-ignorant troll the compliment of replying to his dismal horseshit.

You think he's going to understand the "nuances" in your replies?

If you watch CNN carefully you will find that they never have anything good to say about America or the Conservative movement (Republicans). How come they are so quiet about the war in Iraq now. Is it because America could be winning it. Before they shoved it in your face for 24 hours a day, about how bad things were going. Do not trust any mainstream media today. Rather read alernative sources and then make up your own mind. Remember Jane Fonda who used to be married to the previous owner of CNN publicly denounced America on the side of the North Vietnamese. Just like Hollywood who is also a bunch of American hating Liberals. Never forget the fact that it was Reagan who toppled Russia, and as far I know he was a conservative, one of the biggest achievements of all time. Be critical in your thinking. No war is good, I know I fought in one, but you could not let Saddam carry on the way he did, and its about time the middle east got introduced to democracy

If you dont like the way the country is going then go and change it at the voting booth. Stop pissing and moaning. The current administration was voted in by the majority of Americans. Whether you like him or not you are obliged to Support Mr Bush. Has he not kept you safe for almost 8 years. Just respect the wishes of the majority

I find your reasoning laugable. You want to be safe. You want freedom of movement and human rights and all the other good things but you do not want to make sacrifices. In life you have to pay a price for everything. There is no such thing as a free lunch. I bet you have never served your country military wise.

You also sound like a conspiracy theorist. Do you have proof for what you state, or are you just regurgitating what the others are saying. If Americans did not sacrifice their lives in the second world war do you still think you would be living in the best Country in the world. Do you think Europe would exist in it's current state. No some Natzi would be kikking your arse.

Start respecting your soldiers who are making the sacrifices by supporting them. They believe in what they do. It was Alqaida and the radical muslims who declared war on America, not George Bush. How would you have handled the 911 attack. Where did you get the idea that the right are all religious? Why bring religion into it. It is the Conservative movement not the right

If you believe the current system is controlled by big business and special interest group's and not the people then what makes you think that any politician will act differently, Democrat or Republican?

You make some good points, but if all politicians are bad what do you do then. You have to change the whole system. How do you do that and with what do you replace it. Unfortunately you have to work with what youve got. I prefer lower taxes and less goverment and are against abortions. These are things Liberals hate. They want to control every aspect of you life. Was it not Liberals (Harry Read) that tried to suppress freedom of speach by going after Imus and Rush Limbaugh. Is it not them that want to bring back the fairness law for talk radio. Personaly I would prefer to take the emotional issues out of government and let them run the country like a business. If they do bad then you kick them out, but that's just a dream right now

Wrong- I was in the Navy in the mid '70s.

No some Natzi would be kikking your arse.
But we aren't talking about 60 years ago; we're talking about right now.
Bush said he went into Iraq because they had weapons of mass destruction. Isn't it funny how none have turned up?

I do respect the soldiers- they're doing a job nobody should have to do. My nephew in law was in Iraq for a year, and my godson's been in Walter Reed for a year and a half because of an ambush on his patrol.

What I don't respect is the administration who sent them there to begin with.

And as to 9/11, don't you find it a little odd that both Saddam and binLaden were CIA assets at one time? Google that if you don't believe me...
Where did you get the idea that the right are all religious? Why bring religion into it. It is the Conservative movement not the right
I was quoting you, sir...

I don't, to be honest.
