"OK Doggy. First you claim to be exposing some false liberal source,"

Smurph Quit spinning---

I said I did search on his title and pull up 1st page of sources on google and posted them.

Yes or no--- So what is disingenous about that?:shrug:

We report--you decide

Let me ask you question on occupier/liberators arguement

Who do you believe --some Muslim reporting for liberal media or millions of people holding up blue fingers?:shrug:

We can argue issue of war all day--but remember what GW's main theme has been in all major speechs--His #1 priority is to protect the American people--been 6 years and numerous attempts twarted without a hit--YET

Now you might think GW is taking heat for war-interrogation methods-survailience ect

--consider for a moment if he makes it to 08 with no incidents and Dems get in and we get hit--then you will see some real heat--would not be surprised if citizens didn't put bounties on liberals :)

If we do make it to '08 and then we get hit here, then I would put the scorecard at Bush/Reps - 1, Dem president - 1. Nothing more, nothing less, just more fearmongering which is the status quo political talking point of your leaders.

And perhaps, the dems might decide to better protect things at home, and not chase down countries that have no terrorists that have struck us either here or anywhere else other than when we made ourselves readily available to them - over there. I don't know, but I'm unaware of the attacks of homegrown Iraqi terrorists on American interests outside of Iraq, but maybe you can Google it for us, Wayne.

Did my own Google search on the AP writer you called out, Wayne, and seems he is pretty mainstream in the articles he writes. He wrote several reporting about Saddam and his henchmen being brought to justice and those men being removed from power, and seems to have a good handle on the workings of whatever government has been put in place there. Not sure what you say his agenda is, but see pretty much regular reporting on a number of things, and not much to signal any kind of agenda. And again, no mention of any of the points being made in this thread by me and most others lately, other than media link posts. Just bashing sources and avoiding the content.

As for GW and his #1 priority to protect Americans, I think it's very arguable that with what he has done in Iraq that we are in many ways less safe, and less prepared to face future battles to our safety - both on American interests abroad, and definitely to homeland emergencies that might crop up. We've really done nothing in the war on terror by being in Iraq, losing lives, and spending money that could go for important issues for American interests. Other than destabilize it, and construct a need for us to remain there according to those that profit from it.

"but remember what GW's main theme has been in all major speechs--His #1 priority is to protect the American people"

tell that to the thousands and thousands of family members of the soldiers he killed for no good fvcking reason at all. You neocon schmucks are really starting to wear on me. We need to divide Iraq into 3 parts and this county into 2. All of the professors, entertainers, athletes, scientists, journalists, authors, homosexuals on one side, and all the redneck, media hating, liberal bashing, jesus loving, homophobic, Bush backing morons on the other. We would all be better off.

"Would really depend on source of info AGAIN-

It is getting old exposing you liberals and your liberal sources 3 or 4 times a week--"

of course this never gets addressed directly.

Said the same thing Jabber. We have to suffer because of the other halfs stupidity. The mere thought that my vote counts as much as dogs is sickening. Makes me think my vote is worthless.
