True believers-Contract w/ America

[Redleg]

First off, Red, as you know ... I did work in the MIC - for 25+ years (not including my military service). One does what one must to serve the needs of their family .... without entirely conceeding the values of their youth (or their adulthood). As for Ronny? What's to love about the man that promised to balance the budget ($1trillion debt) that quadripled the debt?

Yep hypocricy at its finest is it not. ?

I've noticed some love the word "hypocracy". Seems odd they don't equate it with Bushy's reasons for 2,000 mens deaths (soon - 1900+ todate) and 16,000 more being mortally wounded (we will as tax payers will give them a stipense 'til their wounds kill them) because we believed (some did) in the premise of WMDs. Still, all in all, since we now live in a hypothesis society determined by the propaganda one wishes to believe in? Why would I be surprised that some would wish to believe in it?

What are you going on about - it seems you see the hypocrisy in others but refuse to see in your own statment where you rail against the MIC - the same one that supplied you with income to provide for your family.

I mean, what a joke that someone that had the knowledge, the expertice, the ability to actually know the reality of the circumstance? Chose to ignore it - because, it didn't conform to his (hers) perspeption of their reality. As in, it did not conform to their predetermined philosophy against something, someone, or a political party.

Now hold on to that thought for just a second.

Red, nothing against you man.

Now go back to the above statement because your about to raise an interesting point.

But, admit you are stuck in the mess created by thems that raised youse,

Oh the mess that your generation caused with its stupidity? Is that what your trying to allude to. Given that your a Vietnam era vet and I am a vet of a conflict that happened 20 years latter. Yep your generation sure did create a lot of problems.

and I admit being subjected to other ideas than those. Seems fair, don't you think? You admit being stuck in one ideology, and I admit still seeking one? What could seem fairer?

Fair enough until I see certain demonizing terms that seem to float around when individuals are blinded by their idealogue to the point that instead of logical discussion they go for the emotional appeal and namecalling.

Unless, of course, you go back and actually read what was promised - actually created under Clinton - and then disgarded under Bush43.

The contract with America went bust way before Bush 43. So no need for me to read it again.

Then again, I only witness history ... I don't attempt to recreate it ----- 'til it be over (and Bush43, he be over... stick a fork in him ... he's done).

Careful there big fellow - who's attempting to recreate history. Maybe some politicans - but like you I only witness history.
