My prayers, along with those of others, go with 'our' boys and girls and include 'their' boys and girls (and aged men and women and toddlers and angry little 10-year-olds).

harpgirl says: Go away, malignant, narcissistic, facist GUEST. I don't want you around here anymore!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
and the malignant, narcissistic, fascist guest responds:

Must be doing my job, and hitting the mark.   The pro-war side )(emphasis Eb) is showing their true colors, and getting vicious.

Knowing that I'm not on any pro-war side, I second harpgirl's dictum: Go away, malignant, narcissistic, facist GUEST. I don't want you around here anymore!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Guest WITHOUT A NAME, I suspect you are referring to Jesus' name when you say "MY" name but it is really quite funny that it can be taken as referring to YOU:
Why do people here feel they can't even come out among their like-minded peace loving friends, and say "I will support these peace activists putting their lives on the line for the cause of peace, in MY name for the highest good of everyone involved"?



For reasons that include a combination of psychological and ideological phenomena and factors, the America-haters pathologically and reflexively hate and rabidly oppose anything and everything "American", from the U.S. Constitution, to "capitalism", to American cars (especially SUVs). American cheese makes them sick. Of course, they do not publicly state all of that, but express their hate through numerous surrogate issues and causes to which they attach themselves, issues and causes that, not coincidentally, always, without exception, vilify America. The "hate America first" crowd is as mindless and irritating as Pat Buchanan and the America-first-ers.

Outfidel: I understand your take on it but I believe you are very much mistaken; I believe those of us who deplore our country's actions and savagely distrust its current government love our country every bit as much as you do. We want to see our country do well- and do GOOD besides- ; we want STATESMEN/STATESWOMEN who have a grasp of the consequences of actions, we want people in office who are not driven by "arrogance and dimwitted machismo".
