HUGEC0CK,
Re: "Come on man, round up Blair, we will get to that as soon as you get Bush in handcuffs too."
Bush is still the Resident, and claims immunity under his Residential status. Blair is a civilian.
What are you waiting for?- Reply to this comment

I think th Yhai people have also lost a lot of respect for us because of our world actions. They are the friendliest people in the world and try to be nonjudgemental about things. I see Americans in Bangkok and i see the attitude from them saying i am American i am better than you. I do not like this image. When i moved here i wanted to make a good impression of Americans. I started buying candy bars at the stores and passing out to children on the way home, first with their parents present, the parents would introduce me to their neighbors, now i can freely pass out candy to all children in the neighborhopod. The children come out to greet me all the time. Some of their parents are too poor to buy candy formthem soi it is a real treat for them. I am hoping i can leave a good impression of Americans here. I smile and greet everyone, i am learning to speak the thai language. I make sure i do not insult any of their customs here. - Reply to this comment
- England has their neo-cons, just as dangerous as ours,, I think Blair was hoping for the UN not to allow the war.

You say you have met many budhists. I associate with many every day and they accept me the way i am. You know nothing about me or what i have been thru, yet you presume to know me and who i am. - Reply to this comment
HUGEC0CK,
When are you guys going to round up that bounder and war criminal Blair for us.
It would be a lot easier to bring the Bush cabal to justice if you did.- Reply to this comment

True, in the eyes of England rulers, but the documents themselves do not allow for torturing people, and our laws forbid it.- Reply to this comment

Make up your mind where youj stand. You saifd what if she was ordereed to assinate the president, bush is the president. I do not believe in killing but would do so to defend myself, my family , my home, or anyone being victimized in a crime. I think bush is victimizing the whole country and a lot of the world. - Reply to this comment
- ranger,,,, I think that''s the impression we have now in most countries, not that much different that Huge''s

I chiose Budhism bcause it offered me more of what i was looking for spiritually. I also watched the Thai people and was impressed. They do not preach Budhism, they live it as a way of life. - Reply to this comment

I feel the same way about you. I have met many patriots and none of them think the way you do. - Reply to this comment

RE: "...but Scott Pelleys attempt at depicting our soldiers at Gitmo as heartless, cruel torturers was almost un-American."
Posted by bspitler4
I don''t know about that.
Pelley is certainly a tool, although he did a halfway decent job on this story, but since torture IS terrorism, they are DEFINITELY terrorists, and since terrorism is a deep disgrace to our founding document, the Constitution, I would have to conclude that soldiers involved in these terrorist acts are the un-American ones.- Reply to this comment
- ranger1948,,, I agree, budhism''s cool -- But, even the Dahli Lama gets pissed
Religion is like a guitar string, pull it too tight it breaks,, too loose it doesn''t play - Reply to this comment
