Obama wants to make us a second class country.

Let it go dude, we all know that NP is not here to debate, he's only here to lie and troll around so as to feel like he's the shat that he never ever was.

Just point and laugh at the clown :laughat:
 


Bottom line is I don't know how he would have voted and neither do you.......I think he would have caved you say he wouln't.........No one knows who is right.........

NASA?

Really?

With all the options to better spend money on, you choose NASA as an example?


...owe...

I think NASA, with proper oversight, is a very valuable organization. With the right research, space could be very valuable for mining operations, and without the environmental damages we associate mining with today. But pick any program or cause you like, the money would still likely be better there than being spent in this war.



No, but Obama was planning to run for congress back in '02, and he knew that if the war was a spectacular success, that his opponent would use the words against him. He still had the pressures of congress, namely getting elected.
 

Its still not the same as the pressure to cast the vote by a very junior center..............No comparison......
 
a very junior center? Will you please stop making up phrases again


Its common language to call a new senator or a senator in his first term a very junior senator.......I am sorry if the term bothers you..........

I wrote this earlier but it deserves to be repeated.

You started this thread with bogus claims about Obama making the US military a "2nd class country" based on what you say were the meaning of his words. That is supposedly why you started this typically partisan thread.

Then you divert into this bogus claim that only you believe namely that you, Navy Pride do NOT TAKE OBAMA at his word that he would not have voted for the Iraq war despite my posting his actual speech given two weeks before that horrible vote.

OK...so the gospel according to Navy Pride is that you take some words from Obama and twist them into some bizarre theory that he would make the US impotent and those words that he said you're certain of.

However his speech which he clearly says he's against the war is not what Obama meant, no sir, you know better and you think that had he had a vote he would have caved in on his principles and therefore his words are false!

His actual words are false and the words you made up are true?

No way that is accurate or true. You're completely wrong and you do not have one iota of evidence to support either of the ridiculous arguments you've made in this thread which does belong in the basement./swere because it is nothing more than human waste....

Oh, I have nothing wrong with "junior senator", I was just trying to figure out what a "very junior center" was. It would probably a good idea for you to start proof-reading your posts, it'd clear up a lot of confusion that way.
 


This thread is not about me.....Please try and stay on topic......thank you......

My bad, your right.....I apologize...I do have a good spell checker but unfortunately center even though the wrong word is spelled right.........

Technically, he was talking about your logic and your arguments, not you yourself. a bit of a difference, navy.
 
Did you miss the one about cutting money to modernize our weapons system?

Navy,

It amuses me that some republicans argue small government, and an end to government waste/spending, but then go kuckoo and declare just the opposite when it comes to the 50% of the revenue that the government pours into the military industry.

If we've been modernizing all this time, then why are U.S. troops still using M16 variants after the millions pumped into weapons programs for years now? I'm sure HK and Colt don't mind it, nor their political backers (or whoever is funded from the programs). What's Obama's plan going to do to that? Cut some programs that were cancelled anyway? Why are home-made IEDs blowing our modernized troops to hell and back routinely? If that's your idea of modernizing the military, I suspect your money is being spent on aspen ski vacations and not our military.

No one wants a small military, or a weak military. But for heaven's sake, cut some of that fat out because tax payers have to fund that government subsidizing of military contractors, and that's big-government waste. With nukes, a real world war is inconceiveable. Even if it were possible, with the prosperity of the allied nations (europe, u.s., canada, etc.), no country has a prayer at doing anything other than ticking us off. You know this.

Not referencing this particular thread, but if a poster makes assertions of fact, and then refuses to substantiate the claim, hasn't the poster put his own credibility on the line? And if so, isn't it fair to point out that the poster is not credible because of a history of lying?
 


I agree Republicans are just as bad as Democrats.........what is your point?

I don't know if you have ever used the M16 but I have and its a fine weapon as is the 45 Caliber pistol which is still being used after 100 years......


Again you don't cut the research on weapons systems and you don. eliminate all nukes because the bad guys are not going to get rid of theirs........

Its just like the left asking Americans to turn in their handguns then the only people that would have a hand gun is a criminal.......

No thanks

You may love the M16, but the most popular rifle around the world is the AK-47.
 

Please address and clarify this question via PM.
 
Why is that? Do you believe we shoul unilaterally disarm?

This guy wants to cut the military intead of all the wastefull welfare programs........

What do you think Bush has done? Our military is in the worst shape its been since the 1940's (pre WWII).
