[Poiuyt]

The Senate Republicans defeated an amendment on Wednesday making it a federal crime for an American company to sell to terrorist states through a foreign subsidary.

2. they support it in a myriad of ways. . .

but primarily by propping up repressive regimes and conducting
insensitive, irreverant, and abusive policies that invariably will, in the end incite the creation of more terrorists.

See Abu Graib for reference.

5. I read it in my paper this morning

4. Let's not forget Iran-Contra...

They sold weapons to one terrorist state to fund another group of terrorists in Latin America. Its a proud tradition of the party.

6. I'll go a step farther - they are terrorists

They may call themselves republicans but they are fascists, excluding McCain he is the Last Republican

7. Because it would have made Cheney look bad

That's exactly what Halliburton did throughout the 90s while Clinton was President. There's probably lots of big corporate republican donors that are doing the very same thing right now. They don't give a rats ass about stopping terrorism all they care about is their wallet.

9. What else is new? The Freedomers want their money.

(You do know that I'm replacing the word "fuck" with "Freedom"? It's sardonic, to say the least...)

And they'd rather have us all pretend Abu-Gharib never happened instead of thinking of the consequences troops will face and how the whole of the US will be affected...

Republicans ARE terrorists. Financial terrorists. Spending money, allowing corporations to sell anything to anyone, offshore to avoid taxes, outsourcing and walmarting to REDUCE American quality of life for 95% of us, to create a 2 class system of masters and slaves.
