I see a pattern


Lots of anti-us and anti-war threads. Seems the article on the letter we intercepted between al-queda leaders on how their morale was low and getting their butts whooped was never posted here by krepitch or suttill or anyone. Nor an article on the #3 man being arrested in pakistan.

What side does this board lean too? lol

Anti-bush yes, but please do not confuse being Anti-Bush with being Anti-US - those are two far different things.

To answer your first question, I dont feel the need to come to the defense of common sense and all the good things that are happening like others feel the need to paint the picture that nothing good is happening.

I just wanted to point out the slant that this board has taken. Which in my own personal opinion is a very sad one.

A lot of what is posted isnt anti-bush. Maybe anti-us is not the correct phrase either although it sits best with me. anti-us-policy hits the nail on the head for sensitive people though.

Its one thing to be anti-us-policy another to do everything in your power to paint a doom and gloom picture and never show or talk about the good things either.

My one pet peeve with people on the "right" or "left" is that it never crosses their mind for 1 second to take a look at what the other side does right.

Jon, you've got to admit the two have morphed from time-to-time (though not on this board that I've seen)--Michael Moore openly hoping for the success of Iraqi insurgents was to me clearly anti-American, given those insurgents were trying their best to kill U.S. soldiers at the time.

Here's the quote per google:

"The Iraqis who have risen up against the occupation are not `insurgents' or `terrorists' or `The Enemy.' They are the REVOLUTION, the Minutemen, and their numbers will grow — and they will win."

What was the context of that quote? Are you sure he's not just predicting an outcome which might not necessarily be his personal desired result?

And that I do not agree with - and I don't know anyone on this board that would. I hope ALL our soldiers return home safely.

I count about 2 threads that relate to war since April 20th...and those 2 threads are news stories.

I'm curious what threads you see as anti U.S....becuase the remainder has been on the economy, immigration, gun control, and religion.

No doubt - I read that board - I am one of the right-wingers on there!
