Yikes, written in blood no less!
Fist of all, I will take to heart your statement about personal attacks. I found many of your remarks so offensive, that I will admit I may have taken them too personally. I meant what I said about your rhetoric turning my stomach and it honestly alarms me know that there are people who think this way. You apparently feel the same way about some of my statements. I hesitate to answer much of your last post as I have no wish to escalate this any farther than it's already gone and that will accomplish nothing. I'll give it a shot anyway, and we'll see where this goes. I'll try to keep my answers brief.
WE ALL DESERVE A HIP HIP HOORAY WITH FLAGS WAVING AND THE BAND PLAYING THE NATIONAL ANTHEM.
Yes you do. Thank you for your for your military service.
A voting record doesn’t necessarily make you a real American but it’s a start.
Thankfully, it's not up to you to decide who is or isn't a "real" American.
Statement Removed by Admin.
Too bad. But maybe for the best. I will trust the judgment of the referees.
Have you ever been on a battle field with an enemy that is trying to kill you?
No, I haven't. I was a civilian flight instructor for the military at the end of the Vietnam era. Our job was to wash out wanna-be pilots in Cessnas before they were allowed into expensive military aircraft. I disagreed with the purpose of that war, and still do. Saddens me that so many Americans had to sacrifice their lives for no good reason.
the illegals wouldn’t go home because they get government support for their anchor babies….welfare just like Democrat Reid and Polisi are trying to put in place now!
Not the baby's fault that he was born here. I believe the "anchor baby" problem has been greatly overstated. I support the Dream Act too.
Have you ever read the Koran?
Nope, and I don't plan to. I have better things to do than waste my time on religion. Sharia Law does not take precedence over civil law in this country. Stoning people to death is murder, plain and simple.
If you don’t think that allowing gays and lesbians to marry will have any effect on the American way of life…you really do have your head in the sand. Even animals don’t pair up in such a manner.

True, Christians have done some terrible things in the past but not one Christian religious book or bible can compare with what is written in the Koran.
Judaism, christianity, and islam are all derived from the same brutal background. They all promote violence, racism, and even genocide.
Gun registration is the first move and it’s what Hitler did. . .
Yeah, a lot of what Hitler did was bad. Guess I'm not as paranoid as you about gun registration. No one would ever dare try to take away all the guns in this country. Won't happen. Meantime, guns continue to kill many more innocent people than crooks. This is not a huge issue for me. I'd like to see some reasonable way to address the problem of irresponsible gun owners. Feeling safe in American society should not require a weapon. Talk about animal behavior.
How many people do you actually know that has RPGs?
Only one, years ago. He had some hand grenades and claymores too. Scary survivalist guy. Don't know where he got the stuff, but I bet it wasn't at a gun show.
. . . What I actually said was “gun rights abolitionist”. . .
You're right. My mistake to have mentally added a comma there. It did seem pretty weird to me.
Give Obama a call…he’ll see to it you get your health insurance back pronto….
Wish he'd hurry. I'd sure like to have the same coverage our elected officials awarded themselves.
….I’ll pay for it out of my pocket. He’ll see to that also.
Thanks.
Let’s just get rid of the Federal Reserve . . .
Be interesting to see what Ron Paul does in his new job, although he says he isn't planning on any big changes.
One working adult, that must have been nice. I was raised on a farm in the 40s, 50s up to early 60s by my Grandparents when I was a kid. . .
Not a fun life from the sounds of it. Now a days, it seems like only illegals are willing to work so hard. I saw an article about farmers complaining that they simply can't find enough legal citizens willing to do the work.
Where were you in ’62?
Let's see. In '62 I was nine years old. My mom, brother, and I lived in a rat-infested basement of a condemned building in San Francisco. My brother and I shined shoes after school to help put food on the table. Guess we all have our own hard luck stories to tell.
Yea, full speed ahead. That seems to be what the Democrats have been saying for quite some time now!
Excuse me. The Republicans have done their fair share of deficit spending too. How 'bout those 6000 earmarks they've just added to the current bill moving through congress? The fact is, we have to tighten our fiscal belt as a nation. That is neither a "liberal" or "conservative" cause, just a cold hard fact that we and our children have to face. Once we get our house in order, we can all sit around and argue about how to spend whatever tax dollars might still be available. I'm sure that some of the things that I might believe are important would not find approval with some of you more conservative types. That's a good thing. I won't like some of yours either. Checks and balances. We can all discuss it like grown-ups.
The problem with your previous statement is that it doesn’t cover all the monies handed out to the welfare bunch. . .
You're right, it doesn't. That was only the figures for Families and Children vs Corporate Subsidies. Look, we can sit around forever and cherry-pick stories about how various people, both rich and poor, have scammed and abused the system. Those people should all be caught and punished accordingly.
Do you have a solution as to how to remove these useless individuals form the system and putting them to work doing the jobs the illegals are doing? I’m willing to listen and even back you if it is feasible.
First off, I don't consider any human being to be useless. Brings up thoughts of Hitler once again. Secondly, I don't understand why you only seem to focus on the poor. There's plenty of schemers and scammers at every level of our society. Let's put a stop to all abuse. And lastly, I don't have any magic solution to fix any of the problems we face today as a nation. I only know that I can't recall a period in my lifetime when this country seemed as polarized as it is now.
You don’t have to give me anything…White, black, yellow, brown or purple…I don’t care what color you are….
Glad to hear it.
I’ve never drawn welfare or unemployment in my life . . .
Hope you don't plan on using any of that Medicare you're eligible for. . . Personally, I've never received welfare either, but have drawn on unemployment insurance a couple of times. Glad it was there. I paid into it for long enough. Looking forward to my Social Security in a few years. Be nice to get some money back.
I think you mean LEFT WING DITTO HEADS since it was the Democrats that bailed them out.
Plenty of Republicans signed off on it too, as I recall. Nice of them since they caused the problem in the first place. Look, there's plenty of blame to go around on both sides.
Actually America is not a democracy....look it up....it's a REPUBLIC....quite a different animal from a democracy but if the Democrats keep on the way they have been doing for years now, it will be a socialist country pretty soon.
Yes, we all learned in school about this being a republic. . . Socialism, huh? Thought you were worried about Fascism earlier. Sorry, supporting social causes is not the same as being a socialist. Putting scary labels onto people doesn't serve any purpose other than to marginalize their point of view. This feels like it could be a pivotal time in our nation's history, as well as the world in general. We're probably in the process of creating a new kind of "ism" that hasn't been defined yet.
Impeachment, removal from office of all of them top to bottom and charge everyone of them with treason against the American People…the entire congress…both sides, the president and all his appointed cronies.
Sounds like you're ready for a revolution. Hope calmer heads will prevail.
and as for the Admin of this site…I am the Admin….this is my website and Badflash and I along with some other very devoted individuals have worked very hard to build it and you are a guest here for as long as you treat everyone here the way you would expect to be treated.
I do appreciate the hard work it takes to keep a site like this going. I've learned a lot here, and hope to repay the education as time goes along. As the site owner, you certainly have the right to boot anyone you care too. You seem to have taken my post as a personal attack, yet that was not my intent. I responded only to what I perceived as inflammatory and insulting statements. I do not feel I went too far by any means, but I'll have to let others be the judge of that.
The Civil War is over you know and the North Won (but somebody needs to tell the South).
LOL
After the hootch…take two aspirins and call your doc in the morning.
Have to settle for just the aspirin. Can't afford the doc. My Obama Care won't kick in till 2014.
Peace,
Gary
