She never had sex with a minor, get your facts straight.

Her point was that if all the troops don't leave they really have not pulled out.

The idea that we where wanted there is a lie that was abandoned by Bush the minute it no longer served his purposes.

And you think Paula should stay out of politics because the ones there right now have done such a good job?

The law considers this woman a danger to children. Don't believe me? Google it.

It's not surprising that we've been at war for 26 of the past 50 years. Some say it's our duty to police the world. I tend to think our behavior is more that of a school yard bully; the biggest kid who gets into a fight every other day, and always insists that he didn't start it. There was one republican who in 1961 told it like it is: Eisenhower.....when he warned of the military-industrial-complex's influence....PS, I'm a veteran and I'm for peace.

Did they broke all your china, killed the cats, cut your arm off, etc. etc. --and then gave you candy and asked for a little bit of love?

Hilarious comic, however screaming liberal. We have to clean up after ourselves, you know. After all, when could it become pull out of Germany or even the UK? Stand now, and we will be able to endure later.

LOL! Good analogy! : )

This video should be sent to the White House & every member of Congress while we dispatch an army of Mrs. Bendas as our Ambassadors-at-Large to live in their bathrooms until our troops are brought home. U.S. withdrawal would result within a week.

Perfect sense Paula. Leaving people there, be it ten or ten thousand, certainly isn't going home...

You GO, Paula! I once heard you talk about gun laws. I am greatly paraphrasing, but you essentially said our Founding Fathers were thinking muskets to shoot turkeys. They took 5 minutes to load and then went BANG! You said "They were not thinking about crazy neighbor Bob owning an Uzi! They were thinking about a musket! Maybe they were wrong! MAYBE... they were wrong!" Where is that stand-up video?? I want to see it again, because YOU are ABSOLUTELY CORRECT!!!!

[nukedude38104]

I once heard Paula talk about gun laws, specifically muskets. She said that when our Founding Fathers gave us gun rights, and I am greatly paraphrasing, they were thinking about shooting a turkey with a musket. She said it had to be pounded for 5 minutes to load it, and then it went BANG! She said they were not thinking about "crazy neighbor Bob" owning an Uzi!!! She said "Maybe they were wrong!" Does anyone know where that stand-up video is??? You GO, Paula!!! I'm right there with you!!!
