But I just had to leave a comment anyway. All you loony lefties will assure yet another round of Republican victories in the next election cycle. Go ahead - keep up all this weirdo, neo-con, conspiracy-theory idiocy. Whoever the Republican candidate turns out to be, he'll tar Hilary (or whoever is unlucky enough to win the Democratic nomination) with your silliness and you'll all go down in flames (again). Yes, Bush and Iraq are down in the polls, but the majority of the electorate still won't accept the stupidity coming out of you crazies on the extreme left. One more domestic attack and the country will be singing a different tune. You Peace-At-Any-Price types are all foolish tools of our enemies, and you deserve your fate as obscure, laughable outsiders in our political process. Please, please, please keep spouting all this nonsense! Continue trying to hijack the (once great) Democratic Party. Push out moderates like Joe Lieberman (in favor of a neo-socialist). Tear the left wing apart – it will be fun to watch. The Democratic Convention should be a hoot (it’s gonna be 1968 all over again). I will relish listening to all of you whining about a stolen presidential election and threatening to move to France or Canada (again).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11636447.post-1154006761676297582006-07-27T09:26:00.000-04:002006-07-27T09:26:00.000-04:00Yes, Tilman was killed in Afghanistan.

But he's for th Israel war. Hmmm, that's interesting. He's neither FOR every war or AGAINST every war. I guess that makes him an unbrainwashed, rational independent thinker, unlike the republicans and classic crunchy libs. Too bad more Americans do think this way. <BR/>BobAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11636447.post-1153832361813039272006-07-25T08:59:00.000-04:002006-07-25T08:59:00.000-04:00Everyone in the army is a victim.

The US gov't is violating the Constitution by stealing private lands, caging peaceful protestors, pressuring Amazon to drop the book "America Deceived" by E.A. Blayre III and wire-tapping phones without a warrant.

I resigned in '98 after seven years and a combat tour for similar reasons...the perversion of the military's role to "support and defend the Constitution against all enemies foreign and domestic" into a political and corporate tool. I wish Lt. Watada luck...he has a very steep uphill battle ahead of him. Hopefully when the Schrub is gone all charges will be dropped or he'll be pardoned.<BR/><BR/>"Law never made men a whit more just; and, by means of their respect for it, even the well-disposed are daily made the agents on injustice. A common and natural result of an undue respect for the law is, that you may see a file of soldiers, colonel, captain, corporal, privates, powder-monkeys, and all, marching in admirable order over hill and dale to the wars, against their wills, ay, against their common sense and consciences, which makes it very steep marching indeed, and produces a palpitation of the heart."

Ehren K. Latada, had been deaf to the truth about Iraq. The complicit right-wing media saw to it that the lies surrounding the invasion and occupation of Iraq were reverberated in its echo chamber, drowning out the truth. Leading up to the catastrophe of Iraq, the cadre of hateful vicious pundits promoting their evil agenda towards that nation, fueled by countless lies and deceptions, treated more cooler heads with gross derision. Many who spoke up were demonized as being un-American, or worse, unpatriotic. Not surprising then that so many politically unsophisticated types were pulled in by the deception--particularly the young people who were looking to their elders for guidance. I can only wish the Lt. the very best for now taking a stand against what we all see as wrong, un-American, and unpatriotic.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11636447.post-1153798996082216632006-07-24T23:43:00.000-04:002006-07-24T23:43:00.000-04:00He is right and he is a victim, as are we all.

If we weren't all so passive there would be more and louder crys of outrage at the deception about this war.
