Re: Freed Iraquis riding on American Tanks
In an earlier post, Plywoody said, "In the current conflict, for example, which we are probably no more than days away, our goal of turning Iraq into an oasis of democracy is simple fantasy--Not to mention that we have shown with out actions thruout the world that simple democracy is not good enough--we demand a democracy that agrees with our position."<br /><br />I wont do this to you again,even though the ability exists. I'm only pointing this out in response to your challenge...so there ya go..<br />Back to the debate, I know many liberals like Plywoody who I have spoken or debated with, have this desire to cure the worlds ills through peacefull means. This is very noble, but trying to explain this practice as basicly flawed (the conservative response),is to spit into the stove.<br />We tried that route in korea once,and later, in Vietnam.<br />We gave out gajillions of tons of food and aid,and it fed and aided the ones with the biggest guns. It's just the way the human animal is,when they are raised in squallor, hunger and poverty, with many siblings, while thier leaders (the strongest men and the ones with guns), drive the smelly streets in thier Land Rovers and Humvees. Nobody can question your intentions, my liberal friend. But you simply must wake up here.<br />Don't let us conservatives tell you what is the truth, as you have found it to be somehow one lie after another. Don't listen to the guys we listen to,like Limbaugh or Caputo. Just listen to those you want to believe.Just keep wishing the world was a better place. Wish for all you are worth, while others make the world a better place.<br />In other words, wish in one hand, and----<br /><br />Just don't let them rent-a-mobs block the road on my way to work,huh?<br />They knock my front end outta alignment!
<br /><br />Iraq has the tools to become a thriving deomcracy.<br />it is in our interest to make them the envy of the<br />entire region (if'n we's smart)
