hmmmmmmm well I don't really think there was a connection with Sadam and the events of 911. Sadam was a different issue IMHO! But he definately deserved to die because of
#1 what he and his son did to young women with "no choice" and ruined their lives forever as virginity is a high value on marraige in that culture.
#2 Because of his attempted genocide of the Kurds
#3 he really did once have WMD's [ask the surviving Kurds]
#4 I BELIEVE IN SPREADING DEMOCRACY AND equal rights for women........i have absolutely no right to sit back and enjoy the freedom here in America that we women
"in my lifetime have gotten" and not reach out to women of other cultures who are opressesd.
#5 He was an ASSHOLE in general and him and his son's won't be missed.
BUT.....911 is a different issue and Al Qaeda has used these wars to get animosity ramped up towards America and Europe to spread their radical ideology and recruit more RADICAL ISLAMIC FUNDAMENTALIST TERRORISTS AND currently are using even more women for suicide bombings because they are less suspect and can hide explosives better and do as the men tell them in that culture....fuck them.. ASSHOLE MF ers...Sorry my Christian friends as there are no nice words for these ASSHOLES comin' outta my mouth!
Now as for BRAINWASHING! If you look in the archives you will see that I have admitted that I was brainewashed by Christian fundamentalist most of my youth and rebeled as a teen to the values that were taught to me. But I am quite sure that I am affected by my roots on patriotism because Texans in general are raised to be Proud Americans and patriotic to the death if needed to protect our freedom and way of life here. I myself do believe that.
My own family has fought in EVERY WAR AMERICA HAS HAD SO FAR! including my GGGG Grandfather Isham Beasley who fought in the Revolutionary War and a monument is erected to him in Smith County, Tenn. [Al Gore country] put there by the Sons of the American Revolution.... can be googled BTW!....
plus my husband and brother sacrificed so much and suffered greatly to fight a war for freedom and I CAN'T DISHONOR THEIR MEMORY.
but Lefty...I do listen to you and have made subtle changes in my thinking. So chill and keep on doing what you do because we regulars do listen to you and love and respect you. But if it were not for us conservatives....WHO THE FUCK WOULD YOU GUYS ARGUE WITH DAILY FOR ENTERTAINMENT?
HAGO Lefty and don't let it get to you....I rely on your calm, accepting, non-judgemental ways to lead me by example and I can't afford for you to ever lose it. you the guru here. We do listen, but the programming is embedded deep in our Texas raised brains....a very complex body organ that i have studied much and still don't quite understand how it works. Neurology was not my favorite subject anyway.
