Top 10 Democratic Party Slogans

[105]

If they hate us for helping out every time some nation suffers a natural disaster or needs help ousting a dictator,just wait until we manage to elect some isolationist President who won't allow the troops to leave our shores unless the country is attacked and more civilians killed as a result.
The countries who hate us the most have also been among the first to scream for help from Uncle Sam when they need and/or want it to solve their problems.

As valid today as it was in 1973.

You are extremely naive if you think this Libyan operation will only remain an air effort.

Isn't it amazing how true that statement has been proved.

The top ten democratic slogans are spot on.

We found out today that the administration and the democrats are really not willing to cut anything. They are the ones playing games. The Army got half pay today and that was definitely not done by the House. This is the dems Playing games friends.

Can your believe that Reid actually said that the Republicans do not care about womens health? How did he get planned parenthood get on the same level as womens health. This is the spin and shell game. Like comparing football with terrorism.

Remember, his former counterpart, Nancy Pelosi said in November 2006, that it was perfectly OK for the Government to lie if it is in the best interests of the nation. Can you imagine what the media and dems would do if Boehner or Bush had said that? Typical.

Remember, The GOP promised before the mid terms that they intended to cut 100 billion in spending and the democrats have the nerve to be surprised? The democrats failed to meet the requirements by not setting a budget for the last two years, like they are supposed to do. Incredible.

So all of those Islamic extremists that were/are still in Afghanistan loved us sooooo much for helping them against USSR right? Same with Iraq when we helped to oust the old Govt. and ole Saddy took their place. Iran ring a bell. All we get from helping is **** on, so why do we do it?

No one ever comes to our aid when we have natural disasters or any kind of national crisis, say, 9/11.

Actually, they'll probably be happy to be rid of the arogant attitude that our foreign policy makers have established of thinking we can fix everything in this world. It's NONE of our business, we don't belong there. But, if you guys want to keep putting your heads in the dirt and ignore the issues, go right ahead, just don't fault others for seeing that it's not right.

12% of the world's oil supply isn't "much"?
But,this isn't about oil.

Actually, this time, it is. Ever wonder WHY France, of all countries, got involved FIRST?

Even I can see that the intent was to level the playing field when one side of a fight has airpower and the other is a militia(citizens armed on their own hook to depose a dictator) with no air power and only such heavy weapons as they are able to capture while using light infantry arms.

Way to swallow the hook.

Are the people against any US intervention in this fight in favor of Khadaffi being able to run roughshod over his own people?

Obama raked Bush up and down for involving the US in Iraq without any threat to our national security.

I'm sorry, when exactly did Libya threaten our national security? Or do the rules change when a Democrat is in office?

That's right.If Operation Iraqi Freedom was started over oil,why are we paying closer to $4.00/gallon for gasoline instead of getting gas stipends as the tropps still on duty in Iraq watch the sand dunes collapse as we suck that country dry for our own tanker fleet?(Don't get me started on how few US flagged tankers and other merchies there really are)

That's because you have a naive belief that oil prices are tied to our benevolent acts.

They aren't. They are tied to what companies selling gasoline belief they can get from the populace.

What the??? You mean to tell me you and I agree on something?

Are you telling me this man doesn't have me and my family's best interests at heart?



It's like finding out that Santa Claus was murdered by the tooth fairy

I remember back in 1987 being told to go to other ships claiming to be an engineer( I used to be before crossrating into being a Bosun's Mate) in order to obtain paint brushes and other gear we needed to clean and preserve my destroyer.None of the ships in Charleston naval Station would trade with any other ship because budget wasn't being passed by a Democratic controlled Congress.My Chief had to do some fast talking to some officers from other ships when "Fireman Hesson" was seen mustering for Quarters,Muster and Inspection on the foc'sle with my ship's 1st Division instead of with the snipes at their fair weather parade.It was a rare thing for me to be praised for not having converted to Seaman rating because I still had my Fireman(E-3) stripes on my dress uniform.
I also remember being paid only up to date during the last couple months of 1987 because,again, the Senate was unable to pass a budget in order to keep the government working due to the Democrats trying to make things harder for President Reagan.
That can't happen now because the Democrat still hold a majority in the Senate but even so,they can't get all non essential add ons they want into the budget with the Republicans opposing them.
The reason these are the biggest budget cuts in American history is that this country has never had a President with the nerve to spend as much in his first year in office as Barack Hussein Obama has done.

You tell me.I didn't vote for Barrack Hussein Obama and wouldn't even if you threatened to shoot my dog(sorry,Rex.You can handle that problem yourself) but I am looking at Libya like this:They are trying to overthrow a dictator and even though I think US troops will be deploying there in the future,I think that helping the revolutionaries by giving them air support is a good idea.
Believe you me,it is taking a lot to admit that.But,apparently the rules DO change when a liberal Democrat is in the White House.
I just wish that the media was hammering the President like they did to George Walker Bush for having the audacity to hope that he could get the United Nations to approve his enforcing their mandates against Iraq back in 2003.I think the UN was suproised that he'd actually do it since Bill Clinton went to them numerous times for permission but never followed through.
Where is the UN mandate for this action,though and why aren't more Democrats opposing it since we have no interests there?

There is exactly one (1) UN resolution related to our current "kinetic military action" (is that anything like "police action"?) against Libya. But that's ok, because The One is running.. well, he was touring South America when it started. You knew it was serious, because he cut his trip short by 3 hours. It's ok though, at least the French military was there on day 1, with their vast military experi... nevermind.

There were seventeen (17) Resolutions whose violation authorized action against Iraq. Yet Bush is somehow a "war criminal." Uh huh.

Red - That's called "tactically aquiring", not obtaining. So much for honor and integrity right?

As for the rest of your post, that is why I'm so wholeheartedly disappointed in our govenrment. I mean they have ALL sunk to new lows. Where does it end? Does it end with the American people demanding a smaller, less interfering federal government again? Just wondering.

Actually,Mexico DID send a convoy of relief supplies until there was a big stink about it which caused the trucks to be unloaded and take even longer for those supplies to get to NOLA causing more excoriation of President Bush.(it sounded like a commie sympathizer plot to me at the time.)
I still say that if we retreated into isolationism again,there will come a day when someone needs help,calls for Uncle Sam to makee makee fixee fixxee only to hear "Tough Noogies" from the sitting President.
Then people will REALLY hate us for not helping even if we still are the richest nation on the planet with the most capable miltary able to go beyond the bounds of their mission to break things and kill people in order to transport food and other relief supplies across the planet faster than any other country can.

No,we improvised,adapted and overcame.Those aforementioned ossifers INCLUDING me own Division officer who should have been saying "My man,right or wrong,he is MY man and not yours to punish" were after me for impersonation,even though I still wore Fireman's stripes(red) while in a Seaman's(white) billet.BTW,guess who sent me?Wasn't the Chief or Leading Petty Officer.
They couldn't gig me for theft of government property because as soon as the budget did pass,I and the other guy who helped took what we'd gotten from our own ship's allotment back to the ships we'd gotten the supplies from and told them "Here's what we got from y'all back.Thanks much".Besides,I was asking my Div O how he'd like to be up on the highwire with me if I really was facing a court martial.You wouldn't expect a naval officer to back down from an E-3 like that.He knew I wasn't bluffing and that it wasn't an "I wuz only following orders.." defense.
As to smaller government,we have to elect representatives who truly believe that and will leave office at the end of their terms instead of staying on for the bennies.Make them have to wait to be eligible for retirement like you and I have to,then we'll see fewer trying to get on the gravy train.
