%%%%%%%% Obama has no expierence either. I guess if elected Biden can teach him
what the President's duties are.

| Egypt and Israel went back to fighting? Hmmmm, news to me.
Carter finished what King Hassan II of Morocco and Nicolae Ceausescu of
Romania had started and tried to take credit for all of it.
The
| Yugoslav republics went back to fighting? Hmmm, news to me.
You don't read the news do you. Do a search on the Balkans Wars from 1991 to
2001 during Clintons reign Cyrus.

| Nowhere in that statement by anybody did anybody say we should topple
| the regime or takeover the country? Also, there were no weapons of
| mass destruction, so that's a red herring; everybody across both
| parties agreed on the need to stop him from doing that. The BIG, BIG,
| BIG difference is Bushie told Americans right to their face that they
| were doing it and used faulty intelligence that Americans pay dearly
| for to back up his goals.
I see you do not like the support for the war that came from the left. Did
you notice that quite a few were BEFORE Bush was elected Cyrus?
|
| Again, disarming is a whole lot different from toppling and using our
| military forces and money to occupy the country over a multi-year
| period. Oh, yeah, let's not forget the hundreds of American

|
| No they don't; I'm in a lower risk pool than they are, so I'm going to
| be consistently profitable for insurers whereas those obese clowns
| probably won't be.
They still subsidize your medical problems.

|
| Obama's remarks have nothing to do with your drivel. Your drivel is
| being refuted point by point, so keep it coming.
LMAO!

|
| You'll have to provide some context beyond his drive to get the U.S.
| to adopt natural gas a transportation fuel and to use wind as an
| energy source. Pickens isn't chanting drill, drill, drill like those
| clowns are.
He said drill now as a stop gap while we develop new technologies.

He's saying use the natural gas that America already has
| in abundance for transportation, which would remove much of our need
| to import foreign oil and transfer wealth to inhospitable countries.
Our cars and trucks do not run on natural gas. That is a technology that
needs to be adapted. You can't go down to the corner Mom and Pop and get a
fill-up of natural gas.
| That I agree with. What I don't agree is his backing of the Swift
| Boaters in 2004, but that's his right if he chooses.
"It only stands to reason that where there's sacrifice, there's someone
collecting the sacrificial offerings. Where there's service, there is
someone being served. The man who speaks to you of sacrifice is speaking of
slaves and masters, and intends to be the master." -- Ayn Rand
