THINGS YOU HAVE TO BELIEVE IF YOU VOTE REPUBLICAN
>
> 1. Saddam was a good guy when Reagan armed him, a bad guy when Bush's daddy
> made war on him, a good guy when Cheney did business with him and a bad guy
> when Bush needed a "we can't find Bin Laden" diversion.
>
> 2. Trade with Cuba is wrong because the country is communist, but trade
> with China and Vietnam is vital to a spirit of international harmony
>
> 3. The United States should get out of the United Nations, and our highest
> national priority is enforcing U.N. resolutions against Iraq.
>
> 4. A woman can't be trusted with decisions about her own body, but
> multi-national corporations can make decisions affecting all mankind without
> regulation.
>
> 5. Jesus loves you, and shares your hatred of homosexuals and Hillary
> Clinton.
>
> 6. The best way to improve military morale is to praise the troops in
> speeches while slashing veterans' benefits and combat pay.
>
> 7. If condoms are kept out of schools, adolescents won't have sex.
>
> 8. A good way to fight terrorism is to belittle our long-time allies, then
> demand their cooperation and money.
>
> 9. Providing health care to all Iraqis is sound policy. Providing health
> care to all Americans is socialism.
>
> 10. HMOs and insurance companies have the best interests of the public at
> heart.
>
> 11. Global warming and tobacco's link to cancer are junk science, but
> creationism should be taught in schools.
>
> 12. A president lying about an extramarital affair is an impeachable
> offense. A president lying to enlist support for a war in which thousands
> die is solid defense policy.
>
> 13. Government should limit itself to the powers named in the Constitution,
> which include banning gay marriages and censoring the Internet.
>
> 14. The public has a right to know about Hillary's cattle trades, but George
> Bush's driving record is none of our business.
>
> 15. Being a drug addict is a moral failing and a crime, unless you're a
> conservative radio host. Then it's an illness, and you need our prayers for
> your recovery.
>
> 16. You support states' rights, which means Attorney General John Ashcroft
> can tell states what local voter initiatives they have the right to adopt.
>
> 17. What Bill Clinton did in the 1960s is of vital national interest, but
> what Bush did in the '80s is irrelevant.

crazyone. Thanks for copying my message and posting it. I just wanting to put some sense to some of the trash posting around Pbase.

Erich. You're absolutely right! It's never too late to die for your country's freedom. In the meantime, I will continue to support our troops and president. You're a good photographer, keep up the good work!

crazyone seems to be young enough to join the army:

Stan:
"15,935 people were killed in alcohol-related traffic crashes - an average of one every 33 minutes."

"Deaths from Flu: 63,730 annual deaths for influenza and pneumonia" (NVSR Sep 2001)

It definitely does hurt to lose a thousand men and women who served our country proud but it doesn't come nearly as close to those we lost at home to our annual fight with drunk driving and the flu.

So I guess now you are going to want to get rid of President Bush because people are dying left and right from common illnesses and idiot drivers. I would rather lose 1000 brave souls fighting for our freedom instead of sitting on the sidelines waiting for a war on our soil which would cost millions of American lives. Quit whinning and support our troops and our president for having the courage to make tough decisions, even when it's the right decision.

Otherwise grab a gun and stand your post since you think you can do a better job, Stan

1000 of our boys and girls dead in Iraq! why aren't there more protests? oh, that's right, it's un-american to disagree with our president!

And that was a lefty poll pushing the +11 number. This party is all but over.
