- Do you know Iraq never attacked the US nor ever threatened the US. Bush is a war monger, he and his family and other investors(many of which are Saudis including many of the binladin clan) are getting rich from war machines.
When Bush said mission accomplished that was fine we should have pulled back and establish bases and let whoever was going to takeover do so. If our goal was to stop weapons of mass destruction we could just waited to see. $1,000,000,000,000 and all those young men and woman for what? Bush is a no good so and so! - Reply to this comment
- The "bombs" they were looking for were smoke bombs--would have been nice if CBS had clarified that (this is your liberal media?). And it isn''t even clear that the authorities found even that much, just the materials for such, materials which would be found in any home, including mine and yours. In the meantime, they handcuffed and kicked the kids they arrested. They even handcuffed a legal advocate who was outside one of the raided houses. Every American should be alarmed at this violation of what we hold sacred in this country--freedom of dissent, freedom to assemble, protection against unlawful search and seizure (yes, there was a search warrant, but you should read it--it''s a joke).
You right-wingers may be enjoying it now, but wait until they turn it on you. Then maybe you''ll finally get through your heads what the Bill of Rights is all about: in a winner-take-all system, the protection of the rights of those not in the political majority. Liberty and justice for ALL, not just people who look and act and think like you. - Reply to this comment

- Republicans protest as well = storm in and kill the Arkansas Democratic chairman or the guys caught with the guns and vests in Denver during the Dem convention.
But I guess that''''s what a good red blooded conservative calls being a Patriot.

That is murder and conspiracy to murder. I am glad these "progressive" protesters are planning to use these methods. Praise Obama - Reply to this comment
- Don''''t forget the urine bags, bricks and handguns. That is what protesting is all about. Praise Obama

- If McCain is elected, I`m leaving.
If he`s re-elected, I ain`t coming back.

When Bush was...elected?...I left.
When the constitution trashing, moronic ,treasonous little chimp-looking deserter-in-chief was reelected, I realized that I would be staying in Amsterdam for good and went right out and bought myself a cappuccino machine.
It was not a decision I made lightly. I bled for my country and it wasn''t to see it turned apathetically over to this sleazy gang of Republican looters.
On the other hand...Amsterdam is great! - Reply to this comment
- Remember when you vote for McCain you are really electing a Mayor/Governor from Alaska as President ''cause it is likely McCain won''t last through 4 years...A Democrat President and Democrat Congress = War ending, bills refused to be signed by Bush that would serve the greater population will be signed in to law by Obama, plus so many other achievements in the first 120 days. Republicans in control of Congress and the White House = More of the McSame. So remember Democrats = Good!!! Republicans = Death and deception...again Democrats=Good!!!Republicans=Bad...and please watch your stance when you are in a polling booth so not to arouse the guy standing next to you.

- You really have to be careful when arresting elderly nuns. Some of `em are real dirty fighters...they''ll roll that wheelchair right over a cop''s toes.
Safer to stand back and open fire. - Reply to this comment

Don''t worry after November the Republican lock step witch hunting do nothing congress will just be a bad memory. 22 Republican senators up for re-election and many will not be returning.
How many house members you see you can spout your pundits nonsense but the swing voter is not stupid we are the most informed voters out there we don''t vote party line.
Have a good day. - Reply to this comment
- I guess being a Catholic Nun holds no clout now-a-days.
Maybe if the Catholic Church hadn%u2019t ignored, transferred and protected child rapists for multiple decades, this wouldn%u2019t be the case. - Reply to this comment
- Those Bushies are very afraid of 78 year old nuns-"Homeland Insecurity" dept had to rid the US of the bill of rights to arrest them without chargres or trial,or lawyers-what can anyone expect of cowards?

In most states you can be arrested and held for up to 72 hrs without being formally charged.
Would you say anything against the cops if it was abortion protestors that crossed the barrier? - Reply to this comment

- They said it themselves; they planned to cross the lines. Did so. Got arrested.
As I recall, the Democrats in Denver also set up some free speech zones, with some Republicans whining and claiming it''s unfair (for some reason!). People were arrested there too. - Reply to this comment
- Bush''s (and the GOP''s) storm troopers on the march again. Isn''t it nice to have a ''president'' who spits on our Constitution and suspends our Constitutional right to protest (outside of protest pits)?
