Jack Kelly: Give Obama the potato test
-
I actually hope you're correct. This country deserves what Obama will bring to it, and all the lies will be revealed for what they have always been. We are on the verge of becoming what the hard core left has struggled to achieve for most of their adult lives. They will no longer be able to hide what they have always been, and all their brainwashed minions will learn what it is they have really been struggling to accomplish. The reckoning is finally upon us. If McCain wins we die with a whimper, if Obama wins we go out the way we came in - with a bang.
Chaining ourselves to the moral high ground does not make us good guys. Aside from making us easy targets, it merely makes us idiotic prisoners of our own self loathing.

Locked in endless war in the Middle East? Are you planning on thanking us for getting America out of Vietnam? We won't hold out breath.

He's a nutccase, that's why. I'm just waiting for him to do something in the name of god, like Assnan's butt buddies.

You've considered that possibility, too? I wonder if Chris has a plan of action if he starts posting messages saying the angel of the Lord has told him to lock and load. . . .

As is your right. The people are generally nice, the culture and food are great, the scenery and historic architecture is awesome. But despite all that, its just too damn socialist for my tastes. Hell, current US policy is too damn socialist for me.

Only a fellow traveler. Ford, however, kept his Communist Party Membership Card in his wallet. And he wore a Socialists Decoder Ring. Kissenger was so far left he actually negotiated with the North Vietnamese -- without precoditions. :omg:

So it was Nixon's fault we lost? Get your story straight.

Ummmmm... one of us is confused. :confused: Did you not imply that the left was responsible for getting America out of Vietnam? Didn't 2 consecutive Democratic administrations (Kennedy & Johnson) escalate the war? Didn't a Republican administration (Nixon) finally pull the troops from Vietnam? :confused: :confused: :confused:

Well, of course, I have no love for lefty politics. I hope they'll see the light some day.. :)

Not only have I considered that possibility, it's my final conclusion! I think you hit the nail on the head a couple of weeks ago with your psychoanalysis of him.

Yeah dude that would be you. Take a deep breath, re-read my posts and think to yourself "Who was responsible for the United States withdrawing from Vietnam?" Then go ahead and post your answer as a reply here. Hint: it wasn't any US President.

Are you calling LBJ a dove? Ha ha, get your history straight, Kennedy did not escalate Vietnam, LBJ (not a liberal by any stretch) did so against the will of the American people, especially the left. The left, through decades of grassroots protest, eventually pressured the government to withdraw. Now we know, with hindisght, that the American left (of which I am proudly a part) was right all along, and we saved the US armed forces literally tens of thousands of lives. Nobody ever thanked us, though. We either get blamed for "losing" (which is a joke, we only lost by participating) or the sacrifices forgotten altoghether. And nobody learned their lesson. When we eventually drag the US out of Iraq, we'll get blamed for losing for another generation :(

Geee... since the thread is about Obama and Stan referenced the left and you said "we" I think it is only fair to assume that you meant Democrats. Since that obviously is not the case... If you meant radical leftist protesters then you may want to reconsider your political alliances since the Democratic administrations ignored you in the 60's. It took a crooked Republican POTUS to respond. :rolleyes:

Well, your history teacher got it wrong. Most hippies smelled of patchouli oil, and sandlewood. The guys who smelled were the G.I.'s who were in the boonies for a couple of months at a time - especially the ones that came back smelling like copper 'cause their wounds were fresh or like shit cause their sphincter let go when they died. The hippies stopped demonstrating the day after Nixon cancelled the draft in 1973. The soldiers and marines came home in 1975 when the U.S. Congress cut off funds.

Well, if you look at Milikins link a little further down this thread there were only 50 Americans in Vietnam in 73. Clearly they came home way before 75.

Not that that would change anything.
