Maybe It's Just Time For America To Go.

Actually 9-11 happened because our government lacked the guts to kill some one (Bin Laden ) that even BJ knew needed killing.

BTW:  There will be NO such lack of guts under a Bogan/TT Administration.

I think "little man" from Iran and Chavez, and Kim-Jong-Dork,  would scurry back to their bathrooms and take a big "time out", if there was a little "violation of air space" perhaps a sonic boom over each countries capital with the re-vitalized and rushed F-22 Raptor Project. Buzz them at Mach "wide open throttle", and shake the very foundation of their buildings.

Combat Pilots would probably volunteer by the hundreds to do a "fly by" over these little punk wannabe dictators.

Ya' know, just to say hello,,,,,we're back.....

Another reason 9/11 happened was the intel community was slashed by BJ. He slashed our military also.

I can attest to the intel budgets being slashed.   I remember after the first failed attempt to bring down the Twin Towers with a bomb i knew there was a credible threat of flying an airliner into them back in late '93 early '94. 

Took a while...but it happened. 

I really don't think keeping our budgets up are our best defense against terrorism, I think a like-minded, homogenous society is the best defense.  Something we abandoned in the 60's and 70's.  I remember the WWII vets raising hell during the time of the Cuban Missile Crisis wondering why we were allowing foreigners in the country to study sciences, etc. that it would dilute and bring us down as well as educate them and allow them to work against us more effectively.

A like minded homogenous society? What alternate universe do you live in? The world of conservative white protestant anglo saxon men? Those who inhabit an America who never had a mick, spic, pollack, dago, kike, hun, fag, chink, jap or raghead make his way to these shores? Or what about niggers or Injuns? Oh, by the way, in the nineteen sixties they invented these things called women. I think they're pretty cool, but that's just me. "like minded and homogenous" in Hitler's dream world maybe, but its never been reality in the US of A .
FQ13 who wonders why people don't teach history anymore. America is and allways has been a messy place politically. Its what you believe that matters. Like minded, sort of. Homogenous, nope. Want that? Go back to the Old Country. E Pluribus Unum.

And who are those AmericansTom? Franklin hated the Germans, the Irish were discrimated against, as were the Italins, the jews and the Finns and the Hungarians. Chinese Exclusion Act ringing any bells?  Hell, we still told pollack jokes in high school. Guess what? They all assimilated. This is the key. Come legally and assimilate , expanding the culture as you do so. America has never been a homogenous place. Hell, the intial national motto, E Pluribus Unum had six shields representing Britain, Scotland, Ireland, Wales, the Netherlands, Germany and France, surrounded by banners of the thirteen original colonies. One ideal yes. One Volk? Only if you ignore your history.

That's what makes them Americans. Like TR said there is no place in this country for "Hyphenated Americans". "Celebrating diversity" is self destructive. any one who doesn't like the White Christian dominated society is free to leave since no other culture besides the Chinese have contributed nearly as much to society.

On this, we agree.

 Then take my word for it that political liberalism is a dead end street. Other than the old maid with the binoculars across the street, no one really gives a hoot what you do in your home, but Conservative principles such as not supporting lazy sows  and keeping Government OUT of the affairs of business is far better than the liberals "planned economy that worked so well for the USSR or the socialized medicine that Spain Germany and other countries are trying to get rid of.
Write in TT and I in 2012.
If you are under 45 you will not recognize the country you will be proud to get out of it, if you're OVER 45 you will be looking for the lyrics to "happy Days are here again.

Substitute "libertarian", (screw that!) , lets call a spade a spade and say classical liberalism, for conservative and I am on board. The difference is this. A clasical liberal, in the spirit of Locke, Jefferson, Mill and Franklin, believes that lassiez faire applies not just to our economic choices, but our lifestyle decisions as well. The government has two main mandates. 1) provide security, infrastructure, education and a neutral court of law to settle disputes. 2) To leave me the hell alone otherwise, beyond asking me for my time, money, forbearance or blood to acomplish objective one. Anything else is BS. People should rise or fall on their own merits. I am my brother's brother, but I am not his keeper. I also feel zero need to be policeman to the world. Imperial overeach isn't a theory, its reality. Let the UN deal with the nonsense. If they try to dictate our laws, well, we have nukes for a reason.
FQ13 who is socially libereal, fiscally conservative and a cold blooded realist when it comes to FP. In short, the same position our founders took. Find me a candidate who backs these ideas and I will vote for them.
