    Why are conservatives *wishing* for another Terrorist attack on America?

    Here's some quotes from the Right, who actually wish we were attacked again. They alledge that being attacked is actually good for the country. (Ofcourse conservatives do, that's why they orchestrated the first 911 attack, but that's another thread)

    Can you Imagine what the Coservatives would say if the Democracts uttered this type of treasonus language?

    Conservatives wouldn't say that. People with stocks in Haliburton might say such a thing.

    Some might... but the fact that they are conservative isn't why; it's because they are mindless assholes, a fact that has nothing to do with party affiliation.

    Are all mindless assholes the same? Does the effect of the mindlessness matter? Is there any correlations between style/effect of mindlessness and declared identity of the mindless?

    For instance, if you were to go with the word "soulless" instead of "mindless", I might point out that we could argue a concentration within conservative politics. Likewise, are mindless assholes uniform, or is there diversity, and where do those diverse segments gather?

    There are pleanty of mindless and souless assholes who are liberal. The fact that a conservative is labled mindless and souless is done so out of typical partisan desire to demonize an opponent.

    Well, right. But I still think you're equivocating the effects. I've known plenty of mindless assholes in my life who simply aren't as dangerous as the ones considered in this topic. I'm sure you have too. There are so many among the human species that, while we need not leap straight to political affiliation, we also cannot overlook the diversity of style and effect.

    I see your point.

    While I don't think that this douchebag's statemens are reflective of all/most Republicans, I do feel that the Republican party does NOT do enough to drive them out of the party and/or make a point of distancing itself from such remarks.

    The net effect is, in the end, that many people justifiably associate this kind of nonsense with the Republican party.

    We are defined by what we tolerate. That goes for the GOP and the USA. We are a nation agitating for terrorism and war.

    I like that quote.

    If that's true-- then terrorists better run and hide.

    Admittedly, we all prefer our own brand of douchebag.

    Maybe we should take a poll. Summer's Eve? Massengill? Does Tom's Natural make a douche?

    Does anyone remember a short-lived FOX sketch comedy show called The Edge? They had the best douche joke I've ever seen: The Judds (impersonated, obviously), doing a typical douche commercial: "Mama, do you ever have those days when ... you just don't feel clean?" Anyway, it ends up with them singing a song about douches, their microphones unfolding into douches and squirting water all over the place, and the punchline is, "Now available in Summer Breeze, Forest Pine, and new Smokey-Oakey Barbecue!" Absolutely priceless.

    I would be surprised if it didn't. They make pretty much everything else. I was just at GiantEagle (our local mega-mart grocery store) and they had, I kid you not, like an entire aisle of "TOM'S" shit. NO. I prefer artificially created chemically infused, unnatural stuff.

    OH-- and as to the spoof commerical-- I know I've seen it, but I could have sworn that it was In Living Color.

    superstring99: "I like that quote."

    It wasn't a quote.

    "If that's true-- then terrorists better run and hide."

    No, it's less of a liability for them. Because terrorists not in the employ of states do operate without institutions, their crimes can be less definitive of their societies.

    Can`t democrates be conservative? I`m saying this because I have heard many Amercians (pre-911) say that the USA needs a "good war" to get the economy going :bugeye:

    Hallelujah, it's raining war. But a "good war" is hard to find.

    I agree. It's fairly obvious this war hasn't helped the economy (which shouldn't be the sole factor behind a war anyway). In fact, it's hindered it.

    it has to do with the mindset of the neoconservatives who have hijacked the republican party another attack lets them go see if you don't keep voting for us this will happen more frequently most don't because most republicans like most people in general are decent but there are crazy assholes in any group that are just filled with hate you cannot really do anything about cept ignore them and not support them

    Why were Liberals incapable of protecting us from the 9/11 Twin Towers terrorist attacks?

    I'm sorry. Did I indirectly question your delusion of adequacy with unerring precision?
