In the immortal words of Col. Potter from M.A.S.H., “What a load of horse patootie!” M.A.S.H. had it’s moments, pointing out that war is hell, but it NEVER tried to idolize the North Koreans, and NEVER tried to demonize our troops.

I’ve personally had a problem with war in the past, but if the other guy insists on throwing the party, you’d better show up, right? Our grandparents and great-grandparents clearly understood this and faced down Nazism and Communism around the world. Two ideologies which, clearly even today, have no problems with using force to subjudicate whole populations (China for example). Why aren’t the liberals screaming about the treatment of Tibet? C’mon China, what damage can protesting monks really do? We let moonbats protest all of the time here!

Draw a circle in the sand around Sadr City, and tell everyone to get out in 24 hours. Period. Then level it. All of it. Afterwards bring in armored graders and smooth it all out to a level 2 ft thick pile of rubble.

War IS hell; we’re supposed to be reminding our ENEMIES of that fact.

Unfortunately the greatest gift you can give to an islamic radical is death… Well, if they keep asking for it…

When Republicans have counter arguments, they use them. When they don’t, they just curse.

Willful ignorance and killing — America’s strongest values.

But you might note lgm, that we haven’t had any trouble out of Japan or Germany since 1945. In fact quite the opposite, thriving democracies and economies.

Of course that was prior to the U.N. and it’s humane warfare policies(talk about your oxymoron).

The way to win a war is to make the other side lose it’s desire to keep fighting. Since 1948 we’ve only fought to make the other side take a break.

Alphonse, if you are going to be a smarta$$ at least next time try and do a better job…

Alphonse did just fine. None of that Republican indignant indecency in his post. When Republicans have counter arguments, they use them. When they don’t, they just curse.

Having been there and done that, those weapons have an unmistakable “signature”
of flash, noise and profile.

Cleaning out Sadr City is an absolute dire necessity. It cannot be accomplished with dialog or diplomacy. It must be done in a fashion that is universally understood. The use of force is what is effective when diplomacy fails and it has totally and utterly failed. Let the Rat killing continue!

Sorry, I could not resist.

nice work, gents.

BTW Rooster: SAW is “Squad Automatic Weapon” and it uses 7.62 NATO ammo is substantially more stout than the rifles carried by the foot soldier. It is a full auto machine gun crewed by two men (I think).

Yes, I do believe you’re right. Guess I was thinking of the new m16 being the semi or burst type weapon. It is an awesome little bugger.

In your response to the idiot….he’s a lost cause and I am hoping for the day he is banned. If you read his rants, just imagine, this guy is employed at a university f@@king up young minds on a daily basis.

Liberals strongest values: Willful ignorance, inaction, dithering, pontification, and wishful thinking, resulting in order-of-magnitude worse problems for others to solve later.
