"For these men are lately drawn from the ways of peace. They fight not for the lust of conquest."

Sadly, the same cannot be said of our purpose today. The neocons fight in the name of Empire. They fight in the cause of "Our National Interest". This is not a war of defense, nor is it a war to defend the Iraqi people.

Gingrich is a "Pathetic Loser" spouting his worn-out "Bankrupt Philosophy", a radical Anti-American moron, cut from the same "Cloth of Mediocrity" as W.......

I was in Haight-Ashbury from April until August of 67 and saw many of the bands whose legend has outstripped the reality of the day. I once saw Big Brother and the Holding Company at the Avalon. They were the worst, ever. It was hard to believe that Janis went on to such glory...

In my opinion the Airplane was THE best band of the times. They did a show in the Panhandle that still stands out as the best live performance of the summer.

I am now a 58 year-old who spends a lot of time banging on my guitar and Somebody to Love is one of my regular songs. I would also highly reccommend Surrealistic Pillow as one of the best albums of the era.

God Rest America, land of sleeping sheep.

And so it is Ten Years and a few days since Cheney and his Project for the New American Century. Their opening salvo?

"American foreign policy is adrift......."

Indeed.

I volunteered and served in the Navy from 1968 to 1972. I like to see some photos of The Deserter and The Draft Dodger from those times.

I'll bet the War President was a real machine, keeping the honky-tonks of Montgomery, Alabama safe and watching out for his Red Blount comrades.

Hell yes! Keep it open! It'll be a great place to send these people for their sentences of lifetime exile from this sacred soil of our nation.

They have betrayed the foundation and principles of this once-great nation.

They must pay.

Ahhhhhhhh, yes.

The old "Sodomy Broom". Works every time! What manly men these are.

Thank you, Glenn. She's a great american patriot.

Whatever Bill Clinton did or did not do, that was six years ago. I think we'll be a hell of a lot better off when we start worrying about what TODAY'S president is doing (or not doing) and quit making comparisons with the past.

Sadly, this will never happen.

I was blessed to be posted to NAS Sigonella, in Sicily, in late 1968. My friends and I travelled a lot, and often found ourselves in some very tiny villages as we changed buses or trains. To say that we were venerated, particularly by those whose memories of the liberation were fresh. Sometimes it was embarrassing as people literally crowded around to see and meet us. Sure, we saw signs of dissent, particularly as the war was raging in Viet Nam, but most treated us like kings.

Today, these memories only fuel my rage at what has been done in my name.

I have said it before, the candidate who wants my vote is going to have to spell out a clear and concise plan to punish these people. I've got ten thousand dollars that says a few waterboarding sessions and Libby would be spilling his guts. And why not? We should do unto them as they have done unto others. Any lingering notions that we "liberals" are soft and fuzzy, or into "flower power" and that garbage need to be dispelled. There are a lot of really angry people and we need to let "them" know. I have my senators' number programmed into my phone (Chambliss and Isakson). I call them on a daily basis so they know exactly where I stand.

Please?!!! "stands little chance"??? Getting rid of Cheney should be Job Number One for everyone who loves this nation. He has just about ruined it for us as it is. PLEASE read the crap that he spewed over at the Project for the New American Century. PLEASE read the letter that they sent to Bill Clinton, in 1998, and understand the paranoia about Saddam's WMDs. PLEASE get this man outta here.

Maybe the "need" for another attack to "unite" the nation and demonstrate the "error" of those of us who inexplicably voted for the quisling appeasing "democrat" party, is why Cheney made several "unnanounced stops" in his most recent swing through the mideast.

Here's how we'll know:

If there is an attack against the White House, or Congress, or if Cheney himself is targeted, then we'll know it's the terrorists.

Anything else will be cause for suspicion. My guess is that it will be the "Democrat" party convention, OR one of the debates. They'll use it as an excuse to declare martial law and "postpone" the election.
