I just finished reading "Demonic" by Ann Coulter. Excellant book. Right up there with her other book that I enjoyed a lot, "Slander." In it, she talks about how the Left are the party of the mob. Not the organised crime Mob but the mob of the violent protesters. The Left is always wagging their fingers saying, "the Right are violent people inspiring violence towards the American people..." But if you really look at it from hindsight the Left are the ones who are always throwing punches. They're the ones always throwing rocks, bricks, bats, etc.
I'm not a person who likes to argue politics. I stay out of that avenue. If people were to ask me where I stand on issues I gladly tell them. Kind of like "Don't ask, don't tell." Lol. If there's one thing I learned from listening to Metal is that I have the freedom to speak my mind and no one needs to know what I think - but if I'm goaded into a battle of wits and words I stand my ground.
If you ever notice that the Left is always repeating themselves.
The Left never read Conservative books. They claim we are racists but yet they don't know a things about us because they don't read books. If they read Conservative books they would understand and respect the rationale behind our arguments. We read their books and watch their media and we find ignorance, malice, and fault with their reasoning.
Democrats are all members of the Ku Klux Klan. They formed the group. They're still private members of the group. The KKK originally was created to torment Republicans then they moved on to minorities. These days they torment everyone on the Right. I will never vote for a Democrat even if I agreed with him/her on an issue. The pain cuts too deep for me and I'm not a minority.
METAL WARRIORS DOMINATE! ! ! !

No but I may look it up. I love that guy. They took him out of our paper over a year ago and I've kind of forgotten about him.
In my (personal) opinion I think this man makes alot of sense. I never considered him a Democrat or Republican because
he just speaks the truth. F/Glenn Beck, Billo the clown, or MSNBC or anyone else(media) taking a side one way or the other.
We're being destoyed by our government and our corporations period. Neither side is doing anything but causing division in
this country.(Rember: Divided We Fall!!!) There is an article out today talking about the gap between rich and poor is greater
than it's ever been. (REALLY!!!)(How could that be?) (Not because of corporations?) Charley Reese points out what's wrong
and provides good arguments as to why he's right. Pay attention to this man. Read some of his articles and you'll see what I mean.
Was that a rant? I haven't done that for awhile.
I'll stop now.[Show/Hide Quoted Message](Quoting Message by METALMANJP from Tuesday, September 28, 2010 6:39:09 AM)

If BP was one of the boycotting companies, you can breathe a sigh of relief. They would find a way to contaminate that beautiful country you have there. [Show/Hide Quoted Message](Quoting Message by Soylentgreen4u a.k.a. theWOLFMAN from Thursday, August 26, 2010 8:28:01 PM)

Funny you mention Clinton in that manner, the man had the fastest zipper in the west!!
I understand the issue was much bigger, I just didn`t want to type all afternoon.
I can`t imagine what the economic impact has been after all these years with essentially civil war lurking around the corner. My curiosity has been peaked by all this and I must read more about it. [Show/Hide Quoted Message](Quoting Message by _strat_ from Sunday, August 15, 2010 1:41:29 PM)

Now, the issue is much more complicated than that.
First of all, a bit of a correction: when we say "former Yugoslavian" we usualy (at least here, in former Yugoslavia) refer to the period before 1991, when the country was still whole. What was around in 1999 was called Yugoslavia, but actualy it was only a small remnant of it, comprising only two out of former six republics and less than half of the population of the original state. Thats why we refer to it as Serbia and Montenegro, or just Serbia.
Now to the conflict. Kosovo was not invaded, not in the usual meaning of the word - it was an autonomous province within Serbia, and the federal government in Belgrade had full jurisdiction over it. Federal military was always stationed there.
So much for terminology. As for the rest, yes, it did end quickly - at least the military part of it. The problem is that Kosovo is now a frozen conflict, that doesnt look like it will be properly resolved any time soon. And it certainly is creating new tensions between Russia and the West (since Russians and Serbs are traditional allies). Not to mention new hatred towards Albanians (which were always the least popular nationality in our former state; now even more so).
Now, as far as the intervention goes... Shit, I still say that a certain horny bastard from a certain house that as it happens is painted white... Should pay for it. Preferably with his head.

Just in case you did drift over here, I read up on the Nato attacks. It was only after lenghty negotiations that were obviously doomed that Nato acted to stop the former Yugoslavian military from attacking Kosovo, they had a massive troop and equipment build up around Kosovo, action had to be taken. Now should it have came to that, no way! But unfortunately, the powers that be have these great arsenal`s at their disposal`s and feel the need to prove themselves. Surprisingly , even the French backed the Nato troops.
Though Russia`s stance could have very well started the cold war all over again. Luckily it ended quickly. And at least all the major world powers are still friends. Theorectically anyway.

I thought this would be a pretty good link for this thread. Some Commentary from the Late Great George Carlin.
