Really? Yet there has been no further attack on our soil since 9-11, which was handed to Bush by Clinton's failed policies.

Um there hasn't been an attack on U.S. since I stopped eating Taco Bell, that doesn't mean me stopping eating Taco Bell prevented attacks and neither does it mean the policies of Bush or cheney did either.

That is the single most ridiculous post I have ever read in the history of this forum. Congratulations.

Were they not post 9-11 attacks on our nations leaders and the capitol? Terrorist attacks that were never solved?
Like Bin Laden was never caught?

They were never successful. Due, mostly, to the stepped up security which became policy following 9-11.

Bin Laden has not been caught, no. He also hasn't been caught by your boy, Obama, either. Hmmm.

About as ridiculous as claiming that Bush's policies MAGICALLY stopped another terrorist attack.

You can't PROVE that his policies stopped an attack.

I don't see how that proved he isn't your boy. You obviously have a slavering infatuation with him. Or is that just a rabid hatred for Bush...I really can't tell anymore.

Let's see...

Step one: Attacks happened with threats of more.
Step two: Policies implemented to thwart attacks.
Step three: No attacks happened again.
Step four: You attribute it to Taco Bell.

You need to work on your critical thinking skills.

you can't attribute those policies DEFINITELY to not having attacks on U.S. soil.

The 9/11 attack was YEARS in the making. I was just showing that coorelating a certain thing (policies of Bush) or (Taco Bell which yes, was extreme) do not necessarily coorelate to less attacks on U.S. soil.

There are MANY factors involved, and torturing suspects does not mean that we thwarted an attack.

You can't just point to one thing (Bush's policies) and say YES, this is the one thing that saved us and prevented attacks.

Who's victims? The Republican? America?

The victims are people from other countries who have already suffered enough. Jesus Christ. This transcends the political. HOW CAN YOU NOT GET THAT?

You'd have a point if a) we had TORTURED suspects and B) waterboarding was the only policy implemented. :shrug:

Again, you can't point to one thing (Bush's Policies) and say YES, this saved us. And sorry, but YES, we did torture suspects. Waterboarding is considered torture and we do not use that method anymore because we have said it is torture.

I notice that you have a habit of referring to President Obama as "YOUR BOY".
I have noticed it in other posts..You don't think that referring to him as "YOUR BOY" is racial jabbing?

In Jallman's defense, that is how many people have referred Bush to him and other conservatives.

No. It's a jab at his manhood if I had to say it was a jab. I refer to people as my boys or your boy all the time. Race has nothing to do with it.

But good to see you can default to the mindless liberal caterwauling about race at the drop of a hat. Typical.

What people are you worried about Catz? Are the Republicans fighting having the truth told to protect the poor innocent tortured people's families from going though more torture? That boat don't float..
 
Word play..

Blackman called somebody's BOY = Slave.


Male called Petunia = Gay male

Conspiracy Theory





"Anthrax Attack"-

A US scientist who killed himself last week was the sole person responsible for the deadly anthrax attacks in 2001, new FBI papers allege.

Dr Bruce Ivins alone controlled flask RMR1029, used in the attack, could not account for unusual overtime in labs and issued death threats, the FBI says.

The anthrax-laced letters killed five people, made another 17 sick, and unsettled a nation traumatised by 9/11.

Dr Ivins, 62, died shortly after being told he was about to be charged.

The FBI had been under pressure since his death to reveal the details of the investigation and its papers were unsealed by a judge on Wednesday.

FBI director Robert Mueller briefed the victims and their families about the case before publication.

In a news conference later, the US attorney for the District of Columbia, Jeffrey Taylor, said: "We consider Dr Ivins was the sole person responsible for this attack."

Overdose

The papers say Dr Ivins had possession of anthrax spores with "certain genetic mutations identical" to those used in the sole deadly biological attack on US soil.

I have a feeling given the back channeling and measures being taken to prohibit the release of these photos that they may make Abu Ghraib look like a physical by a doctor. I would also bet that the 'safety of the soldiers' line is being disgustingly politicized in an effort to present a case where if one opposes they appear to be not supportive of the troops.

This has the potential to shake the nation and the military to the core.

I am however opposed to their release at this time due to the concern of the safety of the servicemen currently serving and those who will serve in the future.

An additional important matter to be considered is how Abu Ghraib was used by Al-Qaeda as a very effective recruitment tool. Another potentially disastrous event such as this could erase much of the progress we have made in quelling the violence in Iraq and would certainly make Obama's recent speech in Cairo appear hypocritical and of little substance. There are a lot of people who would have much to lose by the release of these photos right now.

Abu Ghraib was improperly handled at multiple levels. I hope that they can get it right and hold those responsible for these acts.
