Supporting Military War


War at Any Price will Destroy a Nation as Will  Peace

After reading your articles I must assume you live in fantasy land with other cartoon characters.  Where was the outrage when Bill Clinton sent missiles into Iraq?  Maybe his reasoning for doing so was why protesters didn't turn out in mass.  He had to throw a distraction out to take heat off the Cox Report.  lf these so-called war protesters are sincere, why don't they go to Baghdad to offer themselves as human shields?  But with all liberal convictions it's just symbolism over substance

If  sir you are truly anti-war I respect your beliefs and your rights to hold them, no matter how much I disagree with them.  War is always a last  resort to a sane man or nation.  Teddy Roosevelt said "War at any price will destroy a nation as will  peace."  Peace cannot be achieved through appeasement or a wait and see attitude.  Peace is achieved only through complete military victory if all attempts at diplomacy have failed.  People like Saddam Hussein do not react to diplomacy, they will say or sign, whatever is put before them to buy more time.  The point of this being my war is correct.  Whenever 3000 of my fellow Americans are butchered I do take it personally.  Knee-jerk hysteria, really, 12 years of lies and deceit, is not exactly all of a sudden danger.  If we are unprepared for war we can thank Bill Clinton for that.  In his 8 years he slashed military and intelligence budgets to the minimum.  In 1992 alone  the defense budget was cut by $127 billion.  Terror  attacks will occur no matter what, for the simple reason, we are Americans. If a country is to err shouldn't it be on the side of caution.   My last point, we are not going to war with Iraq. Iraq has declared war on the United States, with giving safe haven  to terrorist cells, the funding of terrorism, encouraging attacks against Israel and the U.S, Iraq has shown to the world that human life has no meaning or no purpose.

Take off your blinders and see what real evil is!

Don't be afraid of real world reality. Take off your blinders and see what real evil is! It's personified in Saddam Hussein. He must go!

Since you don't ID your contributing writers, neither shall I say who I am.

Take Action or Get Ready to be Eaten

 
I sincerely wish all of those who comment on peace have done their history lessons....  Peace is only possible when it is a bi-lateral opinion...
 
There were a lot of souls in the WTC on 9/10 who believed in peace and probably did not support war.  On 9/11 they were dead and so were the generations of beings they would have fostered.
 
Wait to be eaten or "take up arms against a sea of troubles" age old question..
 
Regards,
Curtis G. Smith

Paving the Road to Your Own Destruction.

Your reporting is both biased and purposefully shaded toward your own obvious political agenda.  The President made more of an impact than you care to admit and only a fool or a traitor would not have heard the "home-run" message he made for our going in by force.  Americans are smarter than your tired old methods.  Your party is in ruin, and we appreciate your continued ignorance as to the reasons why.  Left wing social communists such as those whom you have espoused are clearly seen in the light of the new day.  Your anti American, anti Capitalistic stance is what will take you and your party down for good.  We are taking back what you have stolen by educating those whom you wish to keep ignorant.  Your fear mongering does not work on an enlightened population.  Keep up the good work, you are paving the road to your own destruction.

Lose Our National Sovereignty Through Peaceful Attrition

I support our presidents decision, wherever it may take us. But, why is it
that no one wants to touch the illegal immigration problem we have on this
continent right now? I spoke with my mother, a native Mexican, about the
influx of illegal immigrants and how many Mexican-Americans feel that Mexico
was cheated out of Texas California and New Mexico and  my mother agrees. We need to nip this in the bud right now. We will lose our national
sovereignty through peaceful attrition if we don't ENFORCE the laws stating
illegal immigration is illegal, hence the term Illegal immigration. I would
love to see soldiers posted on both our northern and southern borders to
enforce the laws currently on the books. And I am a Naval Reservist, I am
willing to be recalled to such duty. I guess I would feel a whole lot better
if we were to  go to war with Iraq/Iran, then return to the US and shore up
the border issue, but that just doesn't seem likely.

Real Primary Focus is the Degradation and Division of the Country

It appears that your real primary focus is the degradation and division of the country which allows you to publish this deception.  I hope and pray that those of us who recognize the immense value of this country prevail in our efforts to protect it.  Much of the blame for incidents like 9/11 rests squarely on the shoulders of cowards and traitors who are constantly working to undo America.  This is the only purpose that you can have when spreading material such as what I have read here.

I Thank God for a President Who
Has the Courage to Call a Spade a Spade

What a shame.

We have a President who is not afraid to speak the truth, and he accepts his responsibility to not only protect America now, but in the future as well.

He is not going to gloss things over and wait for some future administration to handle it.

 
You can be proactive or reactive.
 
You can put out fires or prevent them.
 
For over 11 years we have tried diplomacy with Saddam Hussein, it will never work.  If left to his own vices he will hurt this country and it's citizens again.
 
Congratulations, you are aiding our enemies.
 
I thank God for a president who has the courage to call a spade a spade, one who chooses to be proactive instead of reactive.
 
God bless America.
 
God bless President Bush.
 
There are no easy answers, but the way things have been done in the past has not worked.
 
Not I nor you or any of your columnist can second guess the President's decisions, you think you can but it is not possible, we do not have access to the same information or facts. We can express our opinions and we all can be wrong at any time.
 
I do not agree with everything our government does. But I do support it.
 
Thank You, 

Rick
