Okay, you can come out condeming actions and groups of people to the point you're spitting out sentences......well, I can too.
Funny, when Clinton was President, any Republicans could publicly smear him AND go after him every chance they got.
So, as such, Bush is just the same target.
Hate? Is that too strong a word?
Did the right hate Clinton?
Do the left hate Bush?

I'm just making a point about Bush being out of service while he was in the service and how his records had been expunged to make him appear like a stronger leader and not the well-fed, well bred, protected wimp he was BACK THEN. He didn't show up for his physical either, although then they weren't mandatory. There is PLENTY of damning evidence at that site if you follow the links.
Dan has gone over some of them, and doesn't see the problem, and is probably a little a bit unsure of this type of material floating around this board.

Hey Robert! Where's your two cents worth?

After all, this is just a discussion, and I wanted to point out that Bush never saw action, nor would he want to. To somewhat give you MY perspective regarding YOUR perspective:

>"Goal of Democrats:Portray Bush as a coward, avoiding danger and service to his country.
>"Ignored Reality:Bush is serving his Country 24/7."

Being driven around in limos and guarded heavily and having a group of advisors telling you what to do, while everyone salutes you and grovels at your feet, isn't exactly my idea of a warrior.
However, you and I see things differently.

>"Bush is perhaps the biggest target on the earth. Just the hate-filled lefties alone constitute a large threat to his life."

That is pure CRAP. Democrats (not lefties) just don't care much for his policies. They don't LIKE him, but they don't hate him enough that his life would be in danger........any more than Clinton's was.........from the Republicans.
This is an extension of YOUR hate.
(You seem to have an unreasonable fear when anyone speaks gutterally about Bush......as if you CARED about him).

>"Article's goal .........seems to attempt to fulfill the DNC goal of tearing down Bush's popularity and feed HATRED and DISLIKE in any way possible."

Great!
Funny even!
I remember the sites that were around during Clinton!
Except he was just didling with Monica and wasn't getting prepared to invade a country and divide up it's oil reserves that could start a long, difficult protracted war, and isolate some of our allies. It could also further drain the economy and put the WORLD at war.
THIS will get people hopped up in a hurry.
I don't remember seeing rallies with thousands of people complaining about Clinton!

>"Not surprising though, considering the election is coming up and the democrats are poised to lose both the House and the Senate."

THAT is frightening. And it ain't funny either.

>"Armchair Warrior? Does that come in varieties like a Sofa Ninja, Lay-Z-boy Commando or Rocker Infantry?"

Cute.

There HAS to be another way out of the age old "solution".....war......war.........war.
We are so sophisticated these days, that ANY major confrontation could spiral quickly into a big nightmare.

What ever happened to DIPLOMACY and the quest for PEACE through negotiation?
If Bush continues with his Texas two gun attitude and arrogance, without listening to others, he'll surely take us down the wrong road.
