You might be liberal if...

You believe that Mikhail Gorbachev deserves more credit for losing the Cold War than Ronald Reagan deserves for winning it.

ROFLMMFAO!!! That''s proof positive that you don''t know what you are talking about. The INTERNAL collapse of the USSR was a TOTAL surprise to the CIA, and to Reagan. The only difference is, Reagan ACTED like HE ended the cold war. LOL!!! Reagan was a mediocre acter and a lousy president.

Remember IRAN/CONTRA!!!

It''s public knowledge. Let me clarify that: It''s public knowledge for people who can and do read, and who don''t rely on just FAUX NOISE for their information.

Bush has completely let go of Saudi Arabia and is arming them while their schools teach their children to kill Americans. If more Saudi terrorists want to come into the US, all they have to do is walk in, and no one will look at them twice.

And your evidence, proof, documentation of this is what????? Oh, you don''t have any???? That''s because it doesn''t exist...and THAT''S because it is a lie.

I suppose you''ll now say that ANY nation the US has previously sold arms to is going to us them against us, right? Gimme a break....

The country should have supported FDR going after the wrong country and spending all our money while arming Japan? You''''re sick.

Nope...I''m just setting you straight on how SICK it is that people like you don''t have the balls to stand up and fight for our way of life...unlike the ''greatest generation'' we have people like you who are not willing to do what we have to do to keep our flag flying. And to think...you are idiot enough to use FDR as example the support your stance??? NICE TRY! FDR clearly would have held NO PUNCHES in protecting this country.

You''''ve proven your loyalty to the house of Saud. You should apply for a job as a bodyguard to the king himself. He might even let you wash his Rolls Royce.

Another example of a lib who''s knows he beat and can''t argue the issue...sooooooooo, he resorts to personal attacks that are unwarranted and not true.

What if FDR had responded to Japan''''s attack on the US by invading China and selling battleships to Japan? Saudi Arabia and our leaky borders have everything to do with this conversation. Bush has completely let go of Saudi Arabia and is arming them while their schools teach their children to kill Americans. If more Saudi terrorists want to come into the US, all they have to do is walk in, and no one will look at them twice.

What about the fact the FDR responded to Pearl Harbor by joining the Brits on the Europian Front? The Germans never attacked us directly but did attack our ships carrying supplies to the Brits and our other allies...do you call this attacking US interests? Of course you do, and if you don''t, you''re a bigger moron than I first thought.

The Germans, JUST LIKE MODERN DAY TERRORISTS, allied themselves with Italy and Japan. Ever heard of the axis powers? This is same today with radical islam. There is NO CLEAR FRONTLINE. It is a different fight...and thank God our Prez knows that.

Since you want to argue hypothetically...if FDR had invaded China then I''m sure our leadership then would have had the COUNTRY SUPPORTING HIM!

OBL and 11 of the hijackers and money from Saudi Arabia. Don''t forget, the money leaves a trail.

As for the US cash held by Saudi Arabia, the Saudi currency is pegged to the US dollar. The Saudi government is threatening to abandon the dollar, and suddenly Bush offers them weapons. They have us by the short curly ones. The Saudi royal family gets about twenty cents of every dollar we spend on gas. Add those numbers up.

China is even better off than Saudi Arabia because they hold $900 billion in US bonds that they bought for fifty cents on the dollar. That means we have to pay them double when those bonds mature.

The article we are commenting on is about our national security, and I''m saying Bush is doing a horrible job of national security. The war in Iraq is bogus. The enemy is not defined, and we''re getting our butts kicked because we can''t tell who''s a threat. Just being there weakens our position in the world because it''s teaching the world the US can''t fight an enemy that doesn''t wear a uniform.

If we were going to Saudi Arabia to retaliate for being attacked by Saudis, I''d enlist and insist on carrying a gun.

That makes me a liberal lawyer?
