Democrats fawned over the Soviet Union.

Democrats swoon when Castro is mentioned.

Democrats glow with support for North Korea. 

Democrats rush to hold Hugo’s hand. 

Rumsfeld shakes Saddam Hussein’s hand…

Bush isn’t fighting terrorism, he’s making money (our tax money) for his political buddies in Iraq.

What are you talking about?

See:
Blackwater
Halliburton
Lockheed Martin
etc etc.

do you you deny that many countries are getting rich off of the Iraq War, and that that maybe, just maybe, there is a conflict of interest involved?

Give it a rest, Marktardo, or we’ll trace your IP, find out where you live and send out a band of patriots with some rope.

Congrats Jen, you win the prize for the most rabid, the most hateful, the most frenzied poster on Power Line.  And that’s quite an accomplishment.

Oh, btw.  Making terrorist threats is a felony.

See:
Blackwater
Halliburton
Lockheed Martin
etc etc.

5 years before Dick Cheney was even born, a young Democrat Senator from Texas climbed into bed with Halliburton and never left. That man was of course Lyndon Johnson, who later gave the firm all sorts of no-bid contracts in the Vietnam War. His widow, until her recent death, still sat on the firm’s Board of Directors.

A more recent Democrat President, Bill Clinton (who also staged 4 aircraft carrier photo-ops) also gave Halliburton no-bid contracts during his War of Choice in Kosovo. The Dems have thus been in bed with the firm far longer than the “evil” Dick Cheney.

Simple fact: Halliburton gets the work because it does its job better than any other firm, and also it’s one of the only firms on the planet that does what it does. In the case of its work in Iraq, there’s only one other firm in the world that can do the same thing-and that firm is FRENCH.

As for Lockheed Martin, Bill Clinton gave them plenty of work too. In fact, in the final year of the Clinton Administration, LM doubled the amount of money it spent to lobby him and his colleagues.

Every successful defense contractor plays both sides of the isle.  If they didn’t they would be out of business.  It is just a fact of life for them.

Lies.

Really?

re. Castro and Cuba:

Castro has already endorsed a Hillary Clinton/Barry Hussein Obama ticket in 2008:

http://www.reuters.com/article/politicsNews/idUSN2825114320070829?feedType=RSS&feedName=politicsNews&rpc=22&sp=true

In the same article, Castre repeats Democrat talking points that Bush “stole” the 2000 election. He also sides with the 9/11 Truthers.

And the honored guest of the DNC at their 2004 convention, one Michael Moore, recently released a movie, “Sicko”, lavishing praise on Cuba’s health system.

Haven’t seen Sicko, but I do know that Castro didn’t “endorse” Clinton and Obama, only labeled them unstoppable or inevitable. And even if he endorsed them, that doesn’t mean they endorsed him. That would be like saying every candidate who gets David Duke’s vote endorses David Duke.

As for “Sicko” itself, yes, the movie praised Cuba’s healthcare system. But did it praise Cuban society in general? Is it possible that Moore was making a point such as, “If even Cuba can do this...”?

9/11 Truthers? Don’t know them from Adam, but if they’re in the “9/11 was an inside job” camp, please be assured that they are not representative of Democrats.  You’re making a mistake in logic: the people who feel “X” are Democrats, therefore all Democrats feel “X.”

You know better.

Never said that these companies only work with Republicans.  It’s been well documented that they all worked with Clinton.

My point is that it is strongly in their economic interests for there to be as much war as possible, and they have all made a fortune from the Iraq war, while we as a country have been forced to borrow money to pay for it.  Draw your own conclusions from there.

Do you deny that countries were getting rich off bribes from Saddam Hussein? Do you deny that France, Russia and Germany opposed the war because illegal trading with Saddam was lucrative?

That would be a great question except that liberals never have a problem denying facts and ignoring reality.

you mean to say that major industrialized nations were making significant money from “bribes” from a tin pot dictator?  If they were it was absolutely peanuts compared to what certain companies are making now.

War profiteering is always immoral.  War avoidance usually isn’t.

War profiteering is always immoral.  War avoidance usually isn’t.

If you call “peanuts” the hundreds of billions of dollars the French, Germans and Russians were making annually via illegal trading with Saddam Hussein, I suppose.

War avoidance was pretty profitable though. Ask Marc Rich, the guy whose wife paid Bill Clinton to grant a pardon. Rich made hundreds of millions alone from illegal trading with Saddam.

And f*cking deadly, according to the hundreds of thousands of people Saddam murdered while peace activists were propping up his regime.

That—genocide—really is the legacy of the peace movement though. Nothing worse than a bunch of lazy, coward liberals standing around with flowers, cataloging atrocities while the dictators and despots they support unleash murder across the countrysides.

No? Ask the victims of the Third Reich, the Khmer Rouge, of Stalin, of Communism, and those 800,000 butchered in Rwanda.

Right. War never solved anything. ... well, except for fascism, nazism, communism, totalitarianism… War… what’s it good for.

You gotta be kidding me.

This reads like a threat and will be reported as such.

I’m sorry, but I have to ask here. Did JTNC say this or did Lynch make it up? She’s certainly made threats on the lives of others before, but if she made this one, this little piece of dog crap needs to be banned.

Was the post erased by the mods or edited by JTNC?
