He had that same blunt shoot-from-the-hip style when he was running for the House as he did after he got elected. I can't believe the Oligarchy drove him out of office after just 2 years.

"</i> I agree...after all, I am a political product of the Vietnam Era, and our arrogant attitude that we know what is best for others, falls on my deaf ears. The so-called freedom card has become the reason du jour in this country for just bombing the shit out of whomever pisses us off...or has the oil.<br /><br />And then of course, there is the problem of the bottom line...we have legislator vultures in congress picking at the flesh of major domestic programs, with no serious mention of curtailing our military budget. If the figure of 60 million dollars per day is true as Grayson states, borrowed or not, then by God we can find ways of taking care of much more pressing needs than stroking our military egos.<br /><br />This action is going to bite us on the ass, and we are going to be bogged down in yet another military venture that we can't, or won't, pull out of.<br /><br />Mean Jean---Both of these personal policies of yours are probably the best course.

I've been waiting for everyone who trundled out the same old rhetoric regarding Bush to say the same about Obama and the US. Nothing. <br /><br />Guess since this wasn't instigated by the US, and the strikes weren't authorized by a Republican president, it's all good.<br /><br />You at least have provided, through candidate Grayson, something of a counter-argument. And I can live with it, as far as that goes. Except I wouldn't want to hear (after Qaddafi has passed along) that 'the world should have done something-taken a more active role in getting rid of him'.<br /><br />Can't have it both ways.<br /><br />However, liberal though you are (no one's perfect), no one's ever said you didn't give a fair listen to opposing views.yankeedoghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00030949627569532413noreply@blogger.com
