Please, spare me your bullshit! It seems to be a standing position within the liberal party to blame everyone else except the terrorists for what's been done.

I don't know where you were brought up or how you were brought up, but from where I come from you don't try to embrace your enemy, especially when that enemy has killed those around you and continues to try to kill you and those around you. So please, don't start blaming those who want to defeat terrorism and are willing to face it head on by accusing them of de-humanizing terrorists. :rolleyes:

They de-humanized themselves when they blow themselves up in public places, blow up trains and buses, fly planes into buildings and continue to try and cause massive deaths in any way that they can.

You want to play the 'humanity' card? Why don't you let some of these animals live in your home? Maybe you can humanize them again. Maybe you should start a "terrorist counseling" program in your neighborhood.

And Since 9/11 there have been attacks in Spain and the UK. What DC? Since it wasnt in the US that doesnt count? I guess they are animals too. Perhaps the only humans are Americans.
Don't put a spin on what I said. I never said or implied that those in the UK or Spain are animals. How dare you try make a spin like that and to try and paint that kind of picture from what I've written.

And as far as attacks in other countries, that was not the issue I was responding to. My response was to attacks within the USA. My point in that post above was to point out that our country has not been attacked since 9/11.

My past track record when posting in response to attacks that have taken place in other countries speaks for itself. Everyone here knows damn well that I despise ANY type of terrorists attack on ANY country and it's people.


You think that calling them animals dehumanizes them and is what causes more terrorism? Well your another one who's just living in denial.

I can't stand that f**king " Let's try to talk to them, let's try to understand them and maybe they'll go away and leave us alone" mentality. It's weak, it's spinelss, it's unrealistic and most of all it resonates cowardice.

Your kind of thinking is what has gotten us into this kind of mess because had we had a President in the 90's that would have displayed his b*lls instead of his d*ck, we wouldn't be in the mess that we are in right now.

[/quote]DC, you just stated my sentiments precisely. And it's not just dyed-in-the-wool Republicans or the "Bush worshipers"
who feel this way. This is precisely why a lot of conservative Dems are beginning to awaken and leave the Party. They plainly see things the way they are, not the way things "should be" through rose-colored, Utopian shades. It's time we called a spade a spade and dealt with these terrorists using the only language they understand. Thanks for being blunt with the wrong-headed. It's about time we stopped pussy-footing around and apologizing for our patriotism and our desire for feeling safe.
