J, you are attacking a POW. That is unbecoming. Posted by donbl1 ...Jwhitless you''re a fraud!!!

[j-whitman]

Whats running Afaganistan is NATO -- With more countries withdrawing from the fight ----

Why ???? Bush''s civilian lackies are incompetent & no different than civil service employees, to hell with the job to be done, loyalties are more important.

[donbl1]

J, all the candidates have warts.

That is all we Americans get.

However, the guys with the fewest warts and maybe the healthiest reason to run for President are Obama and McCain.

Therefore, Obama vs. McCain gives America the best range of choices we have had in a long time.

Being a POW and surviving that made him a hero and to be honored.

Running missions over Viet Nam was done by many many US pilots never declared a hero.

[j-whitman]

Don,,,, When are you going to stop watering down the problems --- We aren''t looking for a Burger King line worker, we are looking for a President of the United States ---- Incompetence isn''t a virtue, in that job it''s a dishonor.

[donbl1]

Rowdy, not true.

try again.

McCain only flew 2 missions & didn''t complete the 2nd one..... Bush washed out of flight training, anyone else would have immediatly been transferred to active duty & Viet Nam

The plane Bush was trained on was already decomissioned! There was not a chance he would be called.

It really scares me that the bigwigs in the DOD are thinking of united everything ARMY and putting it under one command.

I fully believe that they want to take away a State''s right to command those troops, in the event of anarchy which very well may be what has to happen in order to get our country away from the Neocon regime.

They want those soldiers loyal to the US, not the State of Vermont.

[j-whitman]

dontb1,,,,, Here''s another ressult of McCain''s rubber stamp & crediblity:

Is the U.S. Failing in Afghanistan?

It was malice in wonderland at the Senate Foreign Relations Committee on Thursday as Bush Administration envoys insisted things are getting better in Afghanistan, while angry lawmakers from both parties cited facts and figures showing just the opposite. Even the senior Republican on the panel, Senator Richard Lugar, found the Administration''s claims wanting. "I''m not sure that we have a plan for Afghanistan," he said.

Instead of fixing their economy etc, we are funding drug lords & war lords compounding the problems ---- 6 years of the same policies as Iraq''s War of Roses.

[donbl1]

J, on the 2000 election, anyone who served during Vietnam could have been called to make the ultimate sacrifice. Bush''s planes type of plane flew a LARGE number of missions in Vietnam. He could have been called.

[donbl1]

J, you are reaching.

McCain supports the Presidentency. He always will. Not the person, the position.

It is like in the military, you salute the rank not the person.

[j-whitman]

donbl1,,, When McCain back in the 2000 debate didn''t knock Bush to the deck for insulting his military service, then again by not fighting tooth & nail to get rid of Rumsfeld or fight for the troop numbers or even for his McCain Fiengold legislation to stop torture,,,,, He showed you those values are''t in existance, they are long gone.

lol....

Again, you have to remember that it was men who wrote the Bible many centuries ago, many centuries after the creation from stories carried by word of mouth.

I can believe in creationism, as it relates to big bang...I know that very early man was little more than an animal, so I can buy some of Darwin''s theory.

I can believe in God because of the complex design of earth and it''s nature, and I can believe that there is a higher intelligence active behind the human brain that reveals itself through our conscience, and through the development of technology.

And I agree about the Vermont issue. And I believe in a State''s right to the protection of the National Guard which was it''s original design.

J, even Ike had to run a campaign and he was St. Ike.
