51. Not a LOSING President, but a LYING President
How is it that so many people give him a free pass for doing the very types of things they would disown their own family members for?

I ranted on this in a post a few months ago - how many Christians, of which I am, have allowed this guy to disregard the very tenents that our faith is founded on.

A prime example are the civilian deaths in Iraq that NOBODY wants to address.

I once asked a group of righties in a different forum...what do you say to the father who holds his lifeless 2 year old daughter?

a. That's the price of freedom.
b. Stay the course.
c. Better her than an American 2 year old.
d. You are Muslim so you are going to hell anyway.

The responses I got were

"We don't target civilians" to which I said OOOOOH in that case never mind all the innocent people that have been killed. I mean, we aren't targeting them so they don't count.

"Iraqis really want freedom and they understand this struggle."

and of course I got the barrage of:

"You're unAmerican."
"You love Saddam Hussein."
"You've never been in the military so who are you to criticize."
"I hope you die of a terminal illness."
