We have to fight the “TERRORIST” and we will go after anyone who will harbor and train them.
BUSH: We fight the terrorists and we fight all of those who give them aid. America has a message for the nations of the world: If you harbor terrorists, you are terrorists. If you train or arm a terrorist, you are a terrorist. If you feed a terrorist or fund a terrorist, you're a terrorist, and you will be held accountable by the United States and our friends.
The United States Department of Defense defines terrorism as “the calculated use of unlawful violence or threat of unlawful violence to inculcate fear; intended to coerce or to intimidate governments or societies in the pursuit of goals that are generally political, religious, or ideological.” Within this definition, there are three key elements—violence, fear, and intimidation—and each element produces terror in its victims. The FBI uses this: "Terrorism is the unlawful use of force and violence against persons or property to intimidate or coerce a government, the civilian population, or any segment thereof, in furtherance of political or social objectives." The U.S. Department of State defines "terrorism" to be "premeditated politically-motivated violence perpetrated against non-combatant targets by sub-national groups or clandestine agents, usually intended to influence an audience.
So who the "TERRORIST" is is a matter of perspective.
Except Spartans were defending their country, not invading one.
Hate to tell you Scooter, the Spartans weren't a defensive force. You don't train warriors like that for defense, that's just what their last fight was best known for. Spartans were warriors and their jobs were to go out and take out Sparta's enemies.
You think that undeclared, unconstitutional, and PERPETUAL war is good. We've been at war for more than 10 FUCKING YEARS. You know, invading Iraq was planned BEFORE 9/11 even occurred. Why do you think war is so amazing? Do you have a hard on for killing innocent brown people?
The total cost of the war on terror is around 6 trillion, that's including GI benefits, etc. Are we any safer than we were pre 9/11? I *HIGHLY* doubt it. Now think of what we could have done with that money? Shit, we could have had Gingrich's stupid ass moon colony for cheaper.
The reason Ron Paul has been declining is because of OUTRIGHT fraud in the caucuses, COMPLETE and UTTER media blackout, and fucktards like you listening to Rush Limbaugh saying how Paul is good on everything except foreign policy, which is completely false. MOST PEOPLE WANT TO END THE WARS IN IRAQ AND AFGHANISTAN. This is exactly what Paul wants to do. Paul will support legal wars to defend our rights as Americans, as he has said MANY times.
So all you fucking monkeys that regurgitate Limbaugh, grow a fucking brain and start thinking for yourself.
So, please admit you were wrong. Foreign policy did NOT kill Paul's campaign.
It's posts' like this that remind me of a famous quote (that's something along these lines): It's better to keep your mouth shut and let people THINK you're idiot, than to open it and confirm it.
newt is a serious warhawk, but i would vote for him over romney if it came down to it..
I love his energy policies, his "If you're collecting unemployment, you're taking classes to gain skills. 99 weeks is not unemployment, it's an associates degree."
Why is it that Paul is such a fucking idiot, yet he still has 68% of this poll?
Ok, I laughed.

I want to like Slow99 since people I know say he's a good guy, but just about everything he posts is condescending and passive aggressive.
Most people I talk to have nothing but good things to say about you, but you sure come across as a condescending prick. Do you have an inferiority complex you've attempted to overcome through overachievement? Or were you fondled as a child?
You and slow99 should date. You both have passive aggressiveness down pat.
