13. So let me get this right. . .
they want the government to control the means of production? Isn't that a tad ironic?

16. Heh, funny guy. We import so much sh*t now we could not very
easily repeat the war effort of WWII.

Bit off topic, but a RWer making the case against too much off-shoring and out-sourcing. Precious. :evilgrin:

4. And when that doesn't work
what will the limbaughistas suggest we do then? Round up all the liberals who keep telling the truth? Conservatives in this country are oblivious to the omelets on their face and too ignorant to admit they are wrong so our kids will continue to get killed. They probably think it is pride. There is strength in humility. Sometimes one must surrender to victory. Sometimes one must quit digging that hole he/she has gotten him/herself into.

5. That's right. Nuke Iraq. Goodness, we've only used nukes twice.
What's the point of having a large arensal of WMD's if you can't use them?

The idea of using nuclear weapons in a war that we started is one of the most breathtakingly insane ideas I've ever heard.

How dare the Iraquies fight back against invaders.

I have a better proposal for those in favor of nuking a country that didn't attack the US: Sign up and show us how brave and strong you are. What? Something better to do? That's what I thought...

8. James Kitfield...A Brian Lamb Fave...
He's been on before. A real bang-em up, RW shill.

Looks like he isn't too happy a camper this morning. Kinda nasty being a war correspondent when the war isn't going good, eh, bunky?

I liked the one who wanted to airlift troops from Bosnia & Kosovo (bet he didn't realize those are two different places) and Korea and then just roll up from the Baghdad Airport. Of course he had a "grandson" somewhere in Iraq. Yeah, right.

Oh goody, Judas Goldberg!

Yep...looks like Bambi in the headlights...can't believe that things could go bad and all those nasty things us evil libruls were yelling three months, six months, a year, two years ago...were true!

He called it an invasion today. That was very telling in itself!

17. If you can't appeal to these idiots
as human beings (you know, it's immoral to annihilate an entire people), perhaps someone should explain to these MORONS that doing so would also raise gasoline prices due to the devastation of Iraqi oil fields.

21. I don't think the callers who say this sort of thing are nuts
Just look at seemslikeadream's post and pictures. We've done it before and it worked. Why not again?

Just ask Harry Truman. Mass murder and genocide was the policy.

We have not a little bit of experience in the matter, therefore it is only natural that people would consider nuking people we don't like as an option.

22. Right wingers like to murder people. Will Bu$h make them happy?
An idiot like usurper boy is the perfect front man for a nuke attack to clean up a mess this thoughtless action of his has created. But Bu$h Inc.`s media will put Clinton`s penis in the equation. And then we will all know who we are supposed to blame. God forbid the squatter in Al Gore`s white house to take the blame. No wonder his followers want the place nuked. Kill the threat to Bu$h Inc. by just killing everyone. Again I`m glad I do not have any GOP friends.
Peace
Wildman
Al Gore is My President
