  1. This current situation in Iraq is -completely- the fault of GWB and he is giving the Iraqi people a reason to be terrorists against us.




    Have we forgotten how we got over there in the first place?? The current situation is here because the problem wasn't solved correctly the first time around.

    hmmm...

    as your sig line is alway "on topic", my simple question: America was quite fine unter Clinton, the democrat, in fact: US was better at these times.

    did Clinton - or Mrs. Clinton - grew up talking dirty ?

    weird [:/]



    FINE the US was FINE??

    How about the USS Cole, were those boys fine when nothing happened after their deaths? What about the US embassy bombings? Were those families fine when nothing was done about their loved ones deaths? Our economy was better than it is now but the US wasn't FINE under the Clinton Administration.

    >In war there is no Colateral damage . . .

    Sometimes they kill kids who did nothing more than be in the wrong place at the wrong time. That is the cost of war.



    Yes, sometimes we miss the intended target but, Little Iraqies grow up to be big ones who strap bombs to their chests and kill marines.

    Is it me or does Colateral damage look a lot like dead children?



    In war there is no Colateral damage, when the enemy using mosques and schools for weapons storage and staging points for ambushes they are knowingly putting those individuals and places in danger.

    Our Soldiers have to defend them selves by any means necessary. If it was me or the kid with the AK-47, there is no age just life or death.

  • I feel that if i just head to another DZ one weekend and meet some new people i am totally re-energized in the sport. Sometimes you just need a change of atmosphere a while.

  • Wow! This thred has really helped me make the choice not to start flying camera for a few more jumps (like 100). I deffinatly need better flying skills with only 100 jumps.

    A speaker has every right to exclude press and recorders from speaking engagements. It happens on a regular basis. This just makes news because the press doesn't like Scalia, and how dare he have the gall to tell them to fuck off. :S



    Amen to that brother
