Obama'a oversight
Edited on Thu May-20-10 11:16 PM by Jeffersons Ghost
Originally appointed to the Joint-Chiefs-of-Staff at the Department of Defense (DOD) by Bush, Robert M. Gates is part of the problems in America and NONE of the solution. He helped mess up the CIA (if its possible to mess up the biggest mess in the world) and now he's messing up in the Mid East. Obama should fire him.

edited to add He's nothing but a right-wing politician that spews neocon talking points like an active volcano spews destruction.

2. Heh, Sometimes cleaning up is pointing out messes.

and sometimes that makes it look like a mess is from one place when it is from somewhere else.


On a personal note, maybe it is better that logical concise arguements on topics were ignored when made by many bloggers and posters, if people did listen to thought out comments, then it would mean a person would have to be careful with comments. But since bloggers and posters are not listened to by some people, then it makes sense posters can say anything they want.

Think about it, they have to worry about what they say, but us people not listened to by some people, we can say anything. Since obviously they have said that logical arguements mean nothing, then illogical stuff they should think will mean nothing also. And from that it does not matter what is posted based on their rule set....

Unless they were wrong, but if they were wrong, they would have corrected, wouldn't they?

That is interesting.

:shrug:


Here is a fun video. Might as well have some fun...

Why not post crazy stuff, why would it matter.

4. with me its principle...
Recently my responsible posts are becoming like a contest between logical adults that see the OPs merit and kids in their moms basement that blame Mexicans for stealing the jobs that they're to lazy to apply for. If they're so pro-right-wing war, why don't they join the army?

Today the kids are winning, so far, but losers only win when they don't have to take responsibility for their actions. (Like stealing votes secretly.)

5. I sorta know what you mean.
Edited on Fri May-21-10 12:43 AM by RandomThoughts
I am standing on principle also, besides the many reasons for holding out for years, there is another thing, I am owed from years ago, but there is nobody that owes me. So out of principle I can not return to earn material things because I have not been paid from before, and to go to work when still owed makes no sense. however nobody exist that owes me so it is a paradox.

Your comment does actually mention what some say to me. Some think I am lazy, they don't have a clue, but I am not going to do the same thing expecting different results. So it would be stupid to get a job, or join the military or any of those things when I already earned material money years ago. So when you say that I think on my situation, and do not think that way not knowing other peoples situations.

As far as secrecy, don't know much about that, but I agree the voting machines need to be fixed, and fixed now. That is an issue.

And for those not very happy, this is a really good song, not my place, but I think some might be there, and do feel for that hardship, I am thankful that at least I am happy most of the time, even if in what seems to be like infinite paradox.

6. YOU got THAT right
Pres.Obama needs to clean HOUSE, get rid of ALL cheeneee's left-behinders.
They do NO goood, for BO, the American PEOPLE, or those they 'lead'..
As I said this time last year, "what the heck is Obama THINKING?!
WHY set US ALL up for failure with those who will booby-trap every effort
to correct this Country's course..& just give up any hope of a 2nd. term?"
