penniless 0 #53 June 25, 2009 QuoteQuoteQuoteQuoteY'know, I think it was wrong wrong wrong for Bush to have involved us in two wars. I mean, think of the cost! We could easily be spending more money unnecessarily. Hell, what is the record for number of wars involved in within one term of presidency? Two? Maybe Obama can beat that record. Cmon nationalism, lets get this party started baby! Obama's already taken us from a 400B deficit to almost 2T... how much more unnecessary spending do you want? Unnecessary? Aren't you a conservative? War is always a justifiable means of spending money. Hell, under Bush we got to spend 500 billion dollars a year for 8 years on the national defense budget. That shit is totally ok when you can kill sand people! I bet Obama could easily make that 600 bil a year on Afghanistan alone. Whos with me? The defense budget isn't discretionary spending - nice strawman, though. First it was "hypocrite" www.dropzone.com/cgi-bin/forum/gforum.cgi?post=3594975;search_string=dictionary;#3594975 Now "strawman". Please invest in a dictionary.

peek 21 #56 June 25, 2009 QuoteWow, I had no idea. (Honestly. It wasn't my intention to use another person's name.) Sorry, I jumped the gun. You didn't really. Perhaps I was being overly suspicious, since we have seen people that have created user names very close to ones used by fairly well known posters. Carry on! (But filling out your profile is still a good idea.) (I also thought Jan was the only person that would use that phrase.) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Perhaps you and penniless would care to explain how, since his post was the first mention of war or spending, how it is a criteria that *I* brought up. And, since it IS misrepresenting my position (as I had not mentioned war or spending), yes, it IS a strawman. Perhaps you, penniless and makeithappen40 (who STILL doesn't have the stones to mention who he was, before) need that dictionary more than I do.Mike I love you, Shannon and Jim.
