I was an Army aviator during the Carter years and we didn't even have enough fuel for our aircraft to train and stay proficient. I was stationed in Germany with the Soviets about 25 kilometers away. We knew that if they decided to come through the Fulda gap that we were toaste! Then came the Best President to fill the oval office... Ronald Reagan, within 3 months we had the fuel we needed and were well on our way back to being the well trained force we needed to be. And even though you liberals won't admit it... It was because of Reagan and Republican policies that we are no longer under a threat from the Soviet Union!!! There's a HARD FACT for you!!!

As for the statement the lib made about no facts..... I've had real life experiences that have given me all that facts I need to make a very informed choice and I pick Republican for national security reasons first and foremost!!! Without a strong defense we have no security. And the liberals will soon be answering to a different government and not one of their choosing. Without our freedoms the liberals won't have any money to give away in the form of welfare.. ... what will they do then???

Wake up liberals, or be prepared to lose it all!!!

This is what 8 years of liberal policies brought us... My prayer is that the American people will wake up and not allow it to happen again and with Kerry I feel it will! We are at war (not just in Iraq) and a Bleeding Heart is not what's needed!!!

This should be manditory viewing prior to entering the polling places this November. http://members.***.net/classicweb/Heroes/heroes.htm

Do you know John Kerry pays $1000.00, for a haircut, flys a $50,000,000.00 jet, yes it's true. No wonder he likes to raise Taxes, money to him is nothing, well he lives off his wife's money that is!!!

That's a pretty big assumption. Typical lib though.

Have they started training Florida libs on how to use a voting machine and that you can only vote for 1 candidate?:lol:

:x When is the question, it won't be in 2004.

I live in Florida, Orlando and voted once, for the right man, but I don't live in South Florida, West Plam, Boca, etc, the lib's stronghold, there the ones who are, don't know how to vote because there so old, dumb and stupid!!!!!


Kerry won't win in Florida, the Dem's expected Jeb to lose but he beat the pants off of the Clinton and Gores candidate for Gov!!!!

Go GWB

Don't get me wrong... The Consevatives didn't seem to have a problem in Florida. It was the liberals that couldn't figure out how this voting thing works or how to read a ballet. They saw OFFICIAL BALLET on the top and thought it was a program for a bunch of people dancing in their toes. :lol:

:shock: Alll the complaining about Bush winning the election, and blaming Florida, go ahead and blame us poor,old retired Floridians, but the right man won.

Just think, if Gore would have won the state of Tenn, he would have beat Bush no matter how Florida came out.

Oh, isn't Tenn Gores home state, and Gore could not win his home state, that should tell you something??? The folks in Tenn are not so dumb. :P

Default The gang that cant shoot straight

Mr. Bush has enmeshed us in a war that we cant win and that we dont know how to end. Each loss is a reminder of the lessons never learned (if we settled for what we ended up with in Vietnam 25,000 casualties would have been avoided) Fantasy must always give way to reality.

You need to get your facts straight, there slick!!! Watch a show called "Viet Nam the 10,000 day war"... What you will find is that your liberal buddy jane fonda (didn't use Caps because the ***** doesn't deserve it) and the other liberals protesting that made the war go on until... (Can you Say Republican) Nixon ended it in 1973. After the Tet offensive of 1968 was won by the American troops the North Vietnamese leaders sat down and where ready to go to the peace table. There was one NVA general that said that they should stay the course and that the American people would cause them to achieve victory in the end. Well because of liberal ******** like you, that were protesting something they knew very little about, the war dragged on for 5 more years. I attribute every bodybag that came home from March of 1968 (end of Tet) until our last person left in 1973, to you liberal pieces of crap that have no sense of honor and country!

From where I'm sitting, we've had more freedoms taken away by Bush, Ashcroft, et. al. then by any radical muslims. It seems like people are willing to give up just about any of their freedoms in the name of safety and security these days, and frankly, it pisses me off.

We're a lot less free than we were a few years ago, and it only seems to be getting worse. Anyone who says they're for freedom and for Bush at the same time confuses the hell out of me.

That said, I'm going to take my own advice and steer clear of this thread from here on out if it keeps going the way it is. I know people have strong political beliefs, but this thread doesn't even resemble a discussion at this point -- it's more an excuse for a few people to hurl insults at anyone who doesn't agree with them. All I see is people being called "pieces of crap," "idiots," and "********."

I get the feeling most of the people involved here would rather see this thread devoted to the local conservatives patting each other on the back for being superior, and us pesky liberals are just getting in the way of that. So, guys, go to it -- thread's all yours.

There is very little factual about anything you said above. What you have there, for the most part, are a bunch of half-baked opinions based on what fits your world view. They're an attempt to explain to yourself the thought processes of people who think differently than you, but facts? No, not even close.
Trick, you have your opinion and are intitled to that. No I didn't state any big time facts but anyone with any grip on whats is going on knows what im talking about.

Its True :liberals would LOVE for us to lose this war and would LOVE for the economy to fall
They want Bush to look bad so they can get in and THEN try to make it all look peachy (barf). A liberal society couldn't last long. With family values down the drain and full goverment control on everything, this country would go to hell in a handbasket.

Its True : They want President Bush out so bad that they would vote for any freak....They would probably even vote in Sadam Hussein over Bush. (Sadam killed, tortured and raped his own people)

AND just because they hid the WMD well doesn't mean they don't exist. liberals are so blind to this. AND even if they didn't exist, if you run in a bank and yell I have a gun and start pushing people around you might just be taken out......even if you didn't have a gun. Threats are pretty serious and mr sadam bragged about 'The Mother of all Wars" quite abit. He talked the talk and now he's paying the price. Bin Hiding (Laden) needs to get some justice on his *** too.

I call liberals "Politically Corrupt" because they coined that stupid phrase "Politically Correct".

You can't say "Mailman" you must say "Mail Person"
You can't say Indians, you must say Indigus Peoples.
Can't say Handicapped, must say Physically Challenged.
Can't say Retarded, must say Mentally Challenged"

(New one) Can't say liberal, Must say Politically Challenged.

Actually its funny how they used to hate the word liberal but now they embrace it. Liberal thinking says "Anything goes as long as it isn't moral or upright or just.



From where I'm sitting, we've had more freedoms taken away by Bush, Ashcroft, et. al. then by any radical muslims. It seems like people are willing to give up just about any of their freedoms in the name of safety and security these days, and frankly, it pisses me off.
ACTUALLY, its the democraps that wish to let any freak in the USA who cause many many problems to a modern society. We have all these foreigners pouring in to take what they can and give back NOTHING!!!!!
In the old days, most who settled here from other countries were happy to be AMERICANS and spent their time being Good Americans by giving back to this country and even fighting for this country!! Now we see the new immigrants (many who hate us by the way) living over here and using our freedoms and liberties against us. 911 could have never happened if the terrorist on those planes were not allowed over here in the Fu-king first place. Isolation? Hell yes, if that is what it takes to keep America what it should be. Those goofy global democraps just don't understand keeping out the bad element : Probably because they are part of the problem. (Most of the Problem)

We're a lot less free than we were a few years ago, and it only seems to be getting worse. Anyone who says they're for freedom and for Bush at the same time confuses the hell out of me.
Hey, its the demz that want to take all the guns away from the good people (everyone knows the bads will still have them). The only reason for the crackdown on security is because of all the crimes by the depraved idiots in this country. If we guarded our borders better and screened people who came into this country it would be a much better place to live. Just look around Miami Florida, Dearborn Michigan, Houston Texas and other places and you will see mega crimes commited by the liberal minds of foriegn bastards who don't belong over here.

NOTE: if this sounds "mean" to the bleeding hearts, then sorry but how can we have a safe country if we allow uncivilized um, people.

Its pathetic that teachers at many schools are required to be bi-lingual so they can teach mexican kids their spanish when they should learn english if they are going to live here. America is too nice!!! If we moved to Mexico and expected them to teach our kids English, they would laugh in our face!!!! Plus we wouldn't get FREE hospital and food stamps and on and on. Its a joke and we need to stop throwing tax money away.


From what ive observed this is the Democrats wishes:

Raise Taxes (To support all the lazy forigners on the goverments ***)
Raise Gas Prices way above what we can pay. (To help throw the economy into a tail-spin)
Help so-called doctors abort (kill) all the babies they can. (Hey, I thought doctors were supposed to save lives not take them)
Allow same sex marriages (to help water down normal life and confuse kids on what is normal and what is perverted)
Create more government... (to peer into our lives and slam regulations on everyone taking away freedoms and pushing socialistic elements in our lives like good 'ol Europe.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Final Thought: When they took out prayer in schools, then the kids didn't have a prayer. Having tons of laws and all won't replace people having morals. In the old days even people who didn't go to Chruch pretty much had morals because schools taught respect and integrity that is so devoid in schools today. We have allowed the liberal thinking of foriegn countries to influence us and we are paying the price. 50 years ago America was a much safer place to live. What is influencing us now? Brittney is busy teaching young girls to dress and act like *****. Rap is telling the youth to do whatever you can to be a 'gangsta' along with drugs, crimes and banging women. Colleges and its professors are pushing liberal thinking to the youth hoping to skew what is normal thinking. I hope this country can wake up and smell the coffee. Carter's ignorance was the beginning. He meant well but took the wrong side of issues. Clinton's complete incompetance as a truthful and upright president was the catalyst that fueled the liberal movement. Now Kerry wants to jump even further left along with fathead ted kennedy and others to flush us further down the can.......
No President is perfect but George W. Bush has integrity, morals, and loves this country. Whether or not you agree on the war you must remember: Our President only knew what he was told by our agents about iraq. We entered this war believing in a cause and just because Sadam turned out to be a wimp in a hole, we need to finish it and move on. I think the iraq people are too ignorant to live in a free society myself though and I also think their oil should fund the war and not the USA.--------------------------------------------------------------

By the way I sure love my Crossfire

Well said :lol: I will add one thing, we are still a free country, what Bush is doing will keep us free, the patriot act will not take away any of my freedom's or yours, it will however help us to keep our freedoms from the radical rag heads that want to take it from us.!!!!!!

I still believe if Clinton would have done what Bush did in Afganistan after the first bombing of the Trade Towers, 9/11 would not of happened!!!
But he was to busy with Monica!!!!!!

Always remember 9/11

All the knowledge in the world is worthless without morality and a conscience. A society without the latter two will degress in each generation till it self destructs. A liberal mind considers knowledge more inportant than morality and therefore has little or no conscience. The easiest way to determine a liberal society is to observe its art and expressions. What kind of art and expressions are we seeing today when we turn on the television or radio? What are kids being bombarded with in the name of "Entertainment". Why is there a plethora of problems in our schools today? The government is teaching knowledge without morality or conscience. It just doesn't work, remember Columbine and Santana Schools.


Having said that I would like to say I like everyone here in the forum even if they have a different opinion of things than I do. Our common thread here is our love for our Crossfires. When I started this post I never intended it to get so heated but but we all feel strongly about our beliefs so lets continue to discuss our Crossfire experiences, shall we?

My first point..
Who defines what's "moral"? Any morals that are different than yours? It seems to me that people in general always want a dog to kick. Meaning that one wants their rights but anyone else "beneath" them...well, they are immoral or "less than" etc.

"Women can't be allowed to vote!....oh..ok...well NEGROES shall not have equal rights!....what? they do?...damn...OK..OK then blacks can't marry whites!...what? REALLY? CRAP!....WELL..NO **** are gonna get married!...so, where's my lesbian ****?"

I'm a gay man and I have plenty of morals.

Your definitions of liberals sounds just too much like Rush Limbaugh rhetoric to take it seriously. It says to me that you may not actually know any liberals and base your opinion on slanderous talk radio hosts.

Having said that, I am not a liberal or a democrat. Or a Republican. Actually I would be a Republican if republicans were what they are suppossed to be but alas they are too tied to the Religious Right. SO...I'm Liberitarian. Less government, less intrusion on our liberties etc. I'm not against the war....not thrilled about it either.

Personally I think Bush and Kerry suck on many levels. Neither is anyone I would ever vote for.
