I want to know what and who gives these trash the right to tell Iraqi civilians to "stay back" while driving on a road? Who gave these scum filth the permission to have so much control over the Iraqi civilans? No wonder Iraqis want them dead!! These pigs are dangerous not only to Iraqis but also to the image of America in Iraq!! I want these mother fucker paid agent of whomever (the oil companies-the israeli zionists) to be brought to justice and rot in hell!!

If it makes a difference, I have been extremely dissatisified with the current administration. Probably for different reasons than you.

gjohnson87109... i have held a conservative ideology for as long as I can remember (now 40 years old). all this despite having grown up under very difficult circumstances in my childhood. I believe very strongly in conservative principles: limited government, low taxes, freedom of speech, strong on defense, empowering small business, doing away with discrimination. These things and many others I hold in high regard.

edburg: It is not that I have a distain for the rich or super wealthy. I do however have a terrible dislike for those who would make profit off the sufferings of other without concern or conscience. Bush and firends meet that qualification. P.S. I was conservative for twenty years! And voted for the neo-con agenda. But then I woke up and saw what has happened to my country.

[edburg49]

gjohnson... you made a statement... i challenged your statement and now you avoid the question. If Bush does not institute a dictatorship, will you call yourself the idiot. I would gladly declare it on youtube if I'm wrong. If you ignore this question or respond in the contrary, I can only conclude that you do not mean what you say.

[edburg49]

Caveman, Bush himself could not authorize the use of force in Iraq... Congress had to pass that resolution... Dems and Republicans in addition to Bush worked together at the time to do this.

[CavemanSynthesizer]

THey only have money because their friends in the Bush administration created an artificial market with their invasion of Iraq.

It's like someone who sets' fire to a building and then makes a profit by putting it out.

[edburg49]

Just because people have money (a lot of it) this does not make them wrong. Though you haven't said very much, it seems as though your advocating socialism. When this happens you remove those things that define America's greatness.

[edburg49]

your statement regarding the ruling wealth shows both disdain an ignorance for the very way of life you enjoy every day. Have you ever owned your own business. do you ever stop to consider what the economy has a whole would be like if we didn't have individuals striving to do well in their business?

[gjohnson87109]

To declare your "idiotcy" publicly would be a waste of time. The question is will you bear arms in the defence of the American People as a whole and not the select 1% (ruling wealth). Look at where Bush(Neo-Cons) is trying to take us now! Iran? We have not even stabalized Iraq. Sounds like classical "Bush A.D.D." ya think?

[edburg49]

gjohnson... can we agree that based on your comment if this comes to fruition, I will publicly declare myself the idiot. If it does not, will you declare yourself an idiot? Just wanted to find out if you are willing to back up your words, or if you are simply spewing flagrant stupidity? Bush... pushing for a position as dictator... let's just see what happens, shall we.
