Link please or STFU. :2wave:
I admire the politeness of the right wing.
I guess you could blame that on the past eight years as well....:mrgreen:

bush was a loser
afghanistan is killing THIS president---politically
I'm not a partisan, which makes me such a good observer.
I hate both wings equally.
However, I'm on a mission to find partisan trolls who read through threads looking for opportunities to:
1. Demand sources (though they rarely provide any themselves)
2. Attack sources (apdst's attack on wikipedia yesterday was priceless)
3. Attack folks personally
4. Repeat talking points they heard on TV or radio.
5. Ignore valid rebuttals and bring up something totally non-germane to the topic at hand.
Everyone knows the game and who the worst violators are. I'm trying to beat them at their own game. So, I'm going to troll all the trolls and annoy the **** out of them. (when I have time, I have a job and kids)
From what I've observed on this forum (and others), left wingers generally start threads with rediculous topics to bait the conservatives into a fight. But the right-wingers usually fail to come through because they concentrate most of their effort asking for sources, attacking sources, making personal attacks or bringing up something unrelated, rather than making counterpoints to support their opinion. It's vicious cycle. And wastes a lot of GB here and on other forums. Both parties are to blame.
My post was half joking, but thanks for the revelation.

I don't know what I would have done if the Army would have really screwed me. I probably would have just enlisted.
Thanks! But I'm not into the nerdy artillery stuff like red socks. I make fun of those guys usually! I'll get St. Barbs someday, I'm sure. I'm not sweating it.
I'd rather bring all my boys home safely from combat...

My question would this:
Will the Europissants in NATO actually send soliders to help out our boys or is this so called "broad support" more Euro-garbage?
Obama needs to make a decision either follow General McChrystal's advice and send help to our boys or bring them home. Hell for Christ sake he can flip a coin and he still would have a 50% chance of making the right call.
Since NATO took command of ISAF in 2003, the Alliance has gradually expanded the reach of its mission, originally limited to Kabul, to cover Afghanistan’s whole territory. The number of ISAF troops has grown accordingly from the initial 5,000 to around 50.000 troops coming from 42 countries, including all 28 NATO members.
You know how redundant that comment is? "I'm not partisan! Moderates are the best!". Come on, Cap.
And I think Obama wants to see how the run off elections go.
Cat, my freind, anytime any enemy points a gun at you war becomes very ****ing real.
That's what makes it imperative to distinguish between war and imperialism.
