		<description>Anyone who supports Bush’s foreign policy does NOT support the troops. If Greg Gutlessfeld supported the troops, he wouldn’t be here combing left wing blogs looking for ways to shoot spit balls. He’d be too busy in Iraq fighting!  

This country wasn’t founded for democracy.  It was founded for sovereignty, and that will sell like hot cakes in the Middle East.  We can’t do this plan with Billary in the WH, it has to be McCain.  We have to say, “Our bad world, we have had two corporate whore dictator families running our country since 1980.  We got just as screwed as you did. We threw their asses out!”  

Go to the House of Saud and tell them we are resigning as their proxy war fighters.  The Bushes are out, so that means your atty, James Baker doesn’t have his own office in the WH anymore.  He is also Exxon Mobile’s lawyer.  Saudis HAVE to allow their OPEC “division” to allow Iraq to nationalize their oil.  It’s the only way! If you don’t, we are leaving!  And bin Laden wants to overthrow them first.  They have a Shiite majority in Iraq and in Iran two doors down.  We are not enemies. We have been in this together, and we won’t leave them out in the cold unless they force us.  BUT, if they don’t let Iraq nationalize their oil – we will use OUR oil and coal to ride the storm, and start capitalizing on these tree huggers riding off into the sunset by switching their cars to a diesel tank and straining dirty cooking oil in their garage.  Oil from our vast farmlands of North America. Then what do you got – NOTHING.  

We get a coalition of countries that will help us defend Iraq from intruders.  If we are there on the premise that we are defending their oil for THEM, we WILL be greeted as liberators.  Coalition forces protect the oil and gas like a mother hen, but we leave the Iraqi Army to be the defenders inland, so we don’t look like occupiers.  All they have to do is push them to the borders – where coalition forces will be waiting like a state of the art Mexican border fence – no one gets out – no one gets in. If the Iraqi Army pushes them out to us, when they get there they get their “speedy trial” before the U.N. and are hung immediately – we don’t need the terrorists causing more bull to get them released, as they have for years.  

We rip up Iraq’s constitution to make it look more like ours.  Right now the only thing free is the market to ascend on them like a pack of vultures.  Those vultures are given the option to take their money and run, or we try them right along with the terrorists before the U.N. and we additionally charge them under the forefather’s Alien Torts Act, which then they will lose everything and then some.  They leave all the infrastructure and business supplies for the Iraqi people to work with.  They always brag they are “businessmen” that take “risks.”  Well, that is true isn’t it?  This time you made a bad investment f----ers!  

We halt the De-Baathification process.  This is why Iran is trying to move in and take back their “Persia.”  De-Baathification is like if bin Laden took over America and fired every Republican because Bush is a Republican.  That’s stupid and just wrong.  Under Hussein, the only way to get a job was by joining the Baathists.  It didn’t mean they agreed with Hussein, they needed to work.  Bringing them back in will help pull the country up faster, and it will keep Iran from having so much influence.  

Doing it this way will have permanent military bases in Iraq welcomed.  Doing it this way will be a way for us to right the wrongs and restore out global reputation.  We lay it out for Iraq, we need some of their oil revenue to pay back our trade deficits with China, if we don’t, all of this will be for nothing.  In no time at all, they will invade and take it over – just as they are doing in the Sudan right now.  Do you want to really be free – or do you want this BS to go on forever? The choice is yours.  But this plan HAS to be, or we are leaving, and spending our money on winning the energy race.  When that happens, no one is going to care whether you ALL kill each other!</description>

		<description>The horror of loss is bitter experienced first hand, the myopic discourse of a pseudo-intellectual reality shattered, to be reformed.

Thank you Mr. Brian Freeman for the price you paid for our freedom and our way of life.

		<description>The problem with making sweeping generalizations about internet editorialists and politicians is someone gets their feelings hurt.

But for every person who disagrees, there&#039;s someone who agrees...pick and choose.  The door swings both ways.  Many have family, and many have friends (even me) who are or have been over there.  My point still stands...instead of attacking me for being disgusted and going off on a rant (which may have been extreme, but this &quot;game&quot; got me angry).  Instead of telling me to &quot;fuck myself&quot; for being upset that a leftist pundit who&#039;s opinion seldom is checked by his own side of the aisle...take some of that energy, and direct it at those people who turned Brian Freeman&#039;s death into a statistic for their &quot;version of monopoly&quot;.  I&#039;m assuming that you probably felt it necessary to criticize my disgust for mocking the importance of human life first though.

I am sorry for your loss.  I&#039;m not being snide or cruel about that.  I know my words will mean little simply because we disagree, but I do mean them.</description>

		<description>From Kerry&#039;s speech on 01/25:
&quot;I might mention, when Senator Dodd and I were about to helicopter out of Baghdad, we were at Landing Zone Washington, which is right in the Green Zone. Many Senators are familiar with it. In the darkness of night, as we were leaving, a young man came up to us to talk to us and he identified himself as an officer in the Army. He was going home for leave and was hitching a ride on the helicopter to go home. He went home, visited his 14- month-old daughter and, I think, his 4-year-old son, if I am correct. His name was Brian Freeman and he was intelligent and thoughtful and bright and he talked about his future and talked with us animatedly about what was going on in Iraq and how he disagreed with what he was being asked to do and how others did. He went home, and we just learned that this Friday he was killed. So he went back. He did his duty as so many have.&quot;

Brian Freeman was my cousin. I did care about him, Jeremy. Go fuck yourself.</description>

		<description>I&#039;ll be brief.

1.  The &quot;I know you are&quot; is because your final response to my article criticizing those who toy with troop death was, &quot;I’m glad you’re happy those troops are dying so you can promote their deaths by ignoring them&quot;.

2.  I stand by my original point, and believe it accurate.  I never said it was &quot;all&quot; leftists, but certainly a loud vocal majority that loves to speak on behalf of the party.  I have provided proof with the source material.  It&#039;s the left&#039;s responsibility to disassociate themselves from such ideals.  IF this is not the case, then the liberals are doing a great job of tricking a large portion of those of us on the right into believing such things.  As I&#039;ve said to you before, I rely on what people write and say in cases like this, as do most blog pundits...you&#039;re the one who tries to abstract and interpret motive.

3.  People like me bad for the country?  I thought you were beyond unfounded personal attacks...but, I&#039;ll assume you&#039;re just not holding yourself to the same standards you hold others:
&lt;blockquote&gt;when one has to exaggerate to make a point, then their point isn’t really worth making.&lt;/blockquote&gt;</description>

		<description>No matter how much time I spend with/viewing leftists, your point is based on your interpretation of their actions, an assumption on their wishes.  But yes, if your theory was true, 1% WOULD be enough to warrant anyone&#039;s disgust.  Unfortunately, due to it being your theory, the burden of proof is on you to explain and show that these leftists do in fact wish death on our troops.
 
What &quot;I know you are but what am I&quot; are you talking about?
 
And, I didn&#039;t attack you as obtuse with &quot;no room to learn, etc.&quot;  I said IF you truly believed that a significant fraction of leftists want our troops to die just so they can make a point... Obviously, I don&#039;t believe you truly do believe that.  I believe you&#039;re making a sweeping generalization to make a point.  (I&#039;m tired of the word &quot;believe&quot;)And when one has to exaggerate to make a point, then their point isn&#039;t really worth making.  Otherwise they could rely solely on facts.
 
Yes, I did click through the sourced material.  It was a very poor decision for this idiot to make such a wager.  His methods on making his point cancelled out what I believe to be a noble intention.  I acknowledge that.  But that source doesn&#039;t nearly convince me that your generalization of these leftists is even close to the proximity of being accurate.
 
I&#039;m surprised you admit to being okay with American division.  To hold such a comfort should be enough proof that people such as you are bad for this country.  Unhealthy and contributing nothing but negativity and hopelessness.  Abraham Lincoln&#039;s ghost would bitch slap you for calling yourself an American post-Civil War.</description>

		<description>If you truly believe that it&#039;s only 1%, then you haven&#039;t been exposed to as many leftists as you think, and spend too much time here (as flattering as it is) and not enough time ingesting the vitriol of a very vocal portion of the left.  But let me play advocate...say it is 1% of Democrats that voted for Kerry who relish the numbers...not including those who didn&#039;t vote, or Independents...that&#039;s 600,000 people.  Even 1% is enough to warrant my disgust.

Good job with the &quot;I know you are but what am I&quot; though...well articulated. 

This &quot;Professor&quot; made me angry...because it&#039;s out there everywhere.  You attack me as obtuse and &quot;no room to learn, no room to adapt, no room to grow&quot;, but where have you changed your opinion.  You&#039;re still on the left...forgive me if I haven&#039;t &quot;grown&quot; to that level yet. Pot calling the kettle I suppose...

You ignored the post, and probably didn&#039;t even click through to the source material.  There&#039;s no other way to explain why you use this opportunity to criticize me instead of the person inventing a &quot;game&quot; where players pick a number of dead soldiers.  There&#039;s &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.latimes.com/news/opinion/commentary/la-oe-stein24jan24,0,4137172.column?coll=la-news-comment-opinions&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Joel Stein article about a year ago&lt;/a&gt;...editorialist for LA times,  Huffington Post, Daily Kos.  You try to put words in my mouth, or articulate my thoughts...but you miss the point.  

The division if fine by me.  I have no problem with it, and yes, I promote it because I believe what I believe is right, and to compromise that is to be satisfied with less than the best.  I&#039;m not invested in our defeat, and pointed out that there are people on the left who are...I see that there are problems, and not everything went perfectly...I can admit the President made mistakes, and can give you laundry list of complaints...can you admit that some of his decision have been correct, or does your partisanship style and ego not allow that?</description>
		<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If you truly believe that it&#8217;s only 1%, then you haven&#8217;t been exposed to as many leftists as you think, and spend too much time here (as flattering as it is) and not enough time ingesting the vitriol of a very vocal portion of the left.  But let me play advocate&#8230;say it is 1% of Democrats that voted for Kerry who relish the numbers&#8230;not including those who didn&#8217;t vote, or Independents&#8230;that&#8217;s 600,000 people.  Even 1% is enough to warrant my disgust.</p>
<p>Good job with the &#8220;I know you are but what am I&#8221; though&#8230;well articulated. </p>
<p>This &#8220;Professor&#8221; made me angry&#8230;because it&#8217;s out there everywhere.  You attack me as obtuse and &#8220;no room to learn, no room to adapt, no room to grow&#8221;, but where have you changed your opinion.  You&#8217;re still on the left&#8230;forgive me if I haven&#8217;t &#8220;grown&#8221; to that level yet. Pot calling the kettle I suppose&#8230;</p>
<p>You ignored the post, and probably didn&#8217;t even click through to the source material.  There&#8217;s no other way to explain why you use this opportunity to criticize me instead of the person inventing a &#8220;game&#8221; where players pick a number of dead soldiers.  There&#8217;s <a href="http://www.latimes.com/news/opinion/commentary/la-oe-stein24jan24,0,4137172.column?coll=la-news-comment-opinions" rel="nofollow">Joel Stein article about a year ago</a>&#8230;editorialist for LA times,  Huffington Post, Daily Kos.  You try to put words in my mouth, or articulate my thoughts&#8230;but you miss the point.  </p>

		<description>Stout, if you truly believe that any fraction over 1 percent of leftists feel this way about troops, then there&#039;s no hope for you.  

You are doomed to remain your website&#039;s title - no room to learn, no room to adapt, no room to grow.  With a chosen stance made at the ripe old age of however old you are, you are left only to shrivel in your cocoon since you won&#039;t allow yourself to break free of it.

To see the political opposition in the same country as yours, to see them as the enemy rather than healthy competition, proves you are a genuine member of the disease that would kill America.

You speak of division and even promote it with your messages and verbiage.  You twist the message of these &quot;leftists who count the dead&quot; into your sick ass justification on why they want our soldiers dead... when we with eyes and ears know that their actual point is to point out that people are dying, that a different road must be taken to win this war, that nobody is winning this war with this strategy except our enemies.  And yet, you try to stop that message of theirs.  You want this downward spiral of America to continue because you&#039;re so proud and ashamed to admit that George W. Bush has failed us as a president.  You&#039;d rather our enemies continue to thrive and celebrate as they have with our troops&#039; death count rising than to acknowledge the failure of Bush&#039;s so-called strategy.  

You are in America, and so your infectious, parasitic views and rants shall go unpunished.  I&#039;m glad you&#039;re happy those troops are dying so you can promote their deaths by ignoring them.

Only in America...</description>
