LOL are you serious? McCain was for the war but not in how it was portrayed and how it's being waged, there is a big difference. There is not simply either A or B or get bent, you can be for something but disagree which I'm glad to see he does. If the president spoke more like McCain I'd support him 100% more than I do now. Speaking of the president, the same president who bashed McCain so hard core in the 2000 election he's lucky to have McCain's loyalty? The same president who spoke stating he was for the assault weapons ban even though he was not?
McCain was soldier and man with principals. In his mind he always have to be loyal to president and his office even if disagrees with what is happening. Colin Powell was the same and look how he got screwed by this administration. there are very different kind of men than people who decide in this administration. Well mia, not only he is moral and decent but he is also loyal, so I am sure this makes him a real nut case in your opinion. hrblcantra, Are you kidding when you say that the choice is not only between A and B? Bush supporters get confused even if the choice was only between A and B, this is the reason the government says the choice is A and people like mia just follow, no need to think.
Huh? For the war, but against it. For it before he was against it? Wasn't happy that Norman Rockwell didn't paint the picture? Would have preferred the Boy Scouts to wage it? Which way is the wind blowing today? Not unlike all those democrats that Will recently posted and I often refer to. Dewussification...
So yet again in your mind unless you fully 100% approve of, and don't question the admin on anything you are somehow having it both ways. I am just astonished that anyone with over a third grade education could trully believe that to be true. Last I checked McCain is not against the war, nor has he ever been. He however has questioned certain aspects of it, I forgot you see a problem with anyone questioning the almighty GWB even if they are correct.
It really does not matter how the war was handled. The left will never be happy. Hell, even if they had had the balls to fight terrorism, they would still not be happy and the result would be, "its a Republicans' fault". Of course we have Bush to blame for katrina, the tsunami, global warming/cooling, and anything else that goes wrong. If we were living in the time of Christ Bush would be blamed for the use of spikes during the crucifixion of Christ because as we all know, those mean nasty Bush's own a spike factory. You know, I get really sick of hearing the same whining and bitching. However, I am able to tolerate it because I find myself laughing at those that go down that silly path. A good for instance is George Carlin who I saw recently after years without a live performance. He chose to preach and bitch about the country that crapped him out and afforded him the opportunity to break barriers that no one else ever had. I had to force myself to make it through the show. 2 hours of bitching about the world, the US, and at least one solid hour talking about how wonderful suicide is. He had 3 funny jokes, one so funny it made me stop and ask the question; "WTF happened to this funny sick old man?" Why couldn't he continue to tell jokes? He is after all a comedian, right? I think he spent one too many nights on Bill Mayor preaching to the choir. Look at what this leftism has done to someone like Carlin? It made him mute with personality, drooling with fallacies and false hoods, and broken down into obscurity. I doubt we will see much of him again in the future. No one laughed, so much so that a laugh track was most likely used on HBO. Like I said, this thread is going in circles.
Nope. It's clear when someone has it both ways. There need not be such stringent requirements or saying one thing, then avoiding it when asked.
Yep it's very clear, unless I or anyone else fully agrees with the admin they are having it both ways in your mind. It's comical to say the least.
I thought we were discussing Iraq, not terror? Umm ok and what exactly is this for might I ask? In a time of 'terror' though I find it funny that the guy put in charge of FEMA had no prior experience don't you? As I find it funny those who simply take whatever their side says to be the almighty truth, even when proven wrong and then fail to even question them on it. Ohyeah that's right if you don't support GWB or the way the war was you're a 'left' 'liberal' or democrat, I almost forgot that. It's funny as I am not nor have I EVER been a democrat!
I would hate to be afflicted with the mental disease known as liberalism Or worse yet, taking both sides of every issue so that I would *think* I'd never be wrong.
Nope, some people have it both ways because...well...they want it both ways so they can never be wrong. Right? Which way is the wind blowing today? Against the way the war was waged and portrayed? Pfft...
So again you refuse and admit that in your mind you will never ever question any decision by those on your side, that's just excellent logic let me tell you.
Uh huh, so again it's either A or B, don't even question anything on your side. That's the easy way out, if that's how you wish to have your views all the power to you. Afterall when you've got x amount just as insane as you on the right or left compared to those who actually look at the issue you're bound to have someone who agrees with every aspect of your argument.
You mean question every and all and never take a stand on anything? Or take both sides of every issue so you'll never be wrong? Against the way the war was waged and portrayed? Pfft...
Disagreeing with side A on some aspects and disagreeing with side B on others is not taking both sides it's arguing with both sides and not allowing oneself to take a side with no logic or rational thought process such as the left and the right do. If that's the way you wish to argue and hold your beliefs all the power to you.
No, the easy way out is to stick your finger in the wind and see what direction it's blowing. Then take both sides of every issue so you'll never be wrong. Then when someone questions it, you can refer back to some obscure post that says so. Sound familiar?
Nope actually not at all, there is a HUGE difference from taking both sides to being logical enough to see when both sides are full of crap. Sticking to half truths, some full truths and other outright lies because they are on your side is sure an easy way to argue. Sound familiar?
