    Why not give them to the NYT? Publishing classified and state secrets is their specialty. When our enemies want the latest and best intel, they turn to the NYT. Or tell your chain of command to stop giving false information about reenlistments and meeting recruiting goals to the press for publication. Somehow, I don't think that's the case though ;)

    I say again, asserting false statements intentionally to vilify a president has no honor. You are better than that, aren't you? This isn't about defending Bush, it's about accuracy. Unlike you, I do not believe hatred for a president justifies deliberate lying to vilify him. And here I thought you were above the "only the message" matters crowd. I keep trying to give you the benefit of the doubt, and you keep proving how foolish I am for doing so.

    When all else fails in your debate, call the opposition a liar. You speak of your opinion of me being in decline but I say the feeling is mutual. I thought I had finally found a good debater, but alas you're just a stubborn old guy :)

    Nothing I say can possibly be true because if it were you'd have to admit that you're wrong and that maybe, just maybe, some of the sources you trust for your research are a bit biased in their reporting? That just can't be now can it? What I overhear is what I overhear. You can take it at what ever face value you please, it's your right to.

    My debate has succeeded quite well against you, because I choose to debate with facts. When one debates with the truth, it will always overcome those who intentionally lie to justify their hatred. Once again, you have brought discredit to yourself by stating something you know is false and I took the time to correct you with solid sources on both issues (war on terror percentage and reenlistment rates). Yet you continue forward as if it never happened while calling me "stubborn." I can appreciate the irony there ;)

    I find it quite enjoyable to counter your deliberate falsehoods with solid sources to disprove what you say. At best, you offer a message of hatred towards the President and seem to be quite comfortable with the fact that lying doesn't matter to communicate your message.

    Duly noted, you are not above the "only the message matters" crowd. In fact, you have proven to be the shining example of what it epitomizes.

    I missed the exact quotes from your sources that disproved anything I said. Care to elaborate?

    You didn't miss them, you just ignored them by suggesting the sources *might* could possibly be wrong. Remember?

    Only the message matters :rolleyes:
