Airborne75th: We flat out invaded Afghanistan though might have aided some group in their struggles against a government that harbored Al-Quida. I'll concede this point to you.

Airborne75th: The post I was replying to mentioned 'continuing to seek' which I take to mean currently or at least modern events. If your referring to the pre-Panama Colombia, your right. However that was a long time ago. We've trained government forces in order to help them control their own Cocaine situation. But these actions do not count as an insurrection unless we were trying to topple the Colombian government using these American trained troops.

LittlePinky82: Funny how we are buddies with Pakistan who are the one's now harboring AlQida. What shit. Are you going to Africa next? They're on the rise there.

LittlePinky82: Uh hon you missed the last several years. We aren't giving them aid now dumbshit.

jigyoda: first off your a dumbass, second i said we've been oppressing people since 1776, slavery MORON, putting japanese in internment camps, lynching blacks, the stupid jim crow laws, grandfather clause FOOL

Airborne75th: Your a brain impotent little nothing of a person. Can you think of anything else? I mean really anything? Try hard.. maybe ask someone to help you.. Really really really try and then answer this, fucktard. How many 'sins' is this country guilty of? How much of a world sweeping positive factor has this country been? How many other countries are guilty of far worse? If you still can't figure out how to answer, don't worry. I don't expect anything valid from you anyway.

Airborne75th: Oh another crushing post by littlestinky. I corrected myself. That implies I'm not full of shit.

Airborne75th: It's best to state your points and not try and hide behind innuendo. See then I'm likely not to know what your talking about and answer some question incorrectly. Pakistan is: 1) a nuclear power and 2) fighting AlQuda as we speak. Aid to whom? the Kurds or the Colombians? If you were clear as to what you were talking about and what you are talking about now, this would go smoother. Unless you could care less for what I say and are just wasting my time as you are a waste of space.

Airborne75th: Do you go to school on the short bus? He would have had knowledge of the act before it occurred OR was grossly negligent in some way. As the 'Commander in Chief' I rather doubt someone is going to even make the accusation he was responsible. Except maybe you.. But you can tell all your 'friends' on the short bus tomorrow morning.

jigyoda: once again your a dumbass, were guilty of a lot of sins, we've done good stuff, but that doesn't wipe out the bad, we didn't have to do those things like: Tuskegee , Trail of Tears, wow i mean if that is not a lot of stuff to you in my previous post, then you truly are blind

Airborne75th: I trust that George Bush acted in good conscious and defended this country from further wide scale terrorist attacks, with full knowledge that acting as he felt he must act would villianize him. His religious beliefs mean nothing to me.

Airborne75th: I'm not blind, you are. Nothing I say will ever be enough for you. Unless you get EVERYTHING you feel the country has done to wrong people, the answer that 'Every Country has an ugly past they like to hide in their closet' will be meaningless to you. I don't believe in perfect people and I sure as hell don't believe this country is perfect. But I like it here and wouldn't trade it for any other nation in the world. BTW: How is the Grandfather Clause an injustice? Just curious.

Airborne75th: This is a classic LittlePinky statement. How much more deluded and brain dead can one YouTube user be? Really a statement like this in front of a head shrinker could get her committed for experiencing a 'reality break'. What would even make her believe this asinine statement was true? Maybe she's a crack whore.

jigyoda: How is the Grandfather Clause an injustice? that's a joke right? anyway im glad im american, what you seem not to be able to get is the part where we didn't have to do those things to people, nobody' s perfect, but it's not a good excuse

Airborne75th: Believe it or not, I'm glad your an American too. However either you or I don't understand the way your using the term "Grandfather Clause". I suppose it could be used for ill purposes but everything I can think of is good. It protects the citizens from being unfairly 'burdened' by new laws when the clause is applied. I'm not going to research your point for you but if you'd care to explain your position, I'll read it.

LittlePinky82: You're a dipshit and are in NO place to talk about other people. You think it's fine to torture other people. You're no better than a damn Nazi.

LittlePinky82: You make me sick. Much more than a damn Nazi does and that's saying a lot and I hate Nazi's in every way.

LittlePinky82: I would say you're probably worse than a Neo-Nazi.

Airborne75th: You have no clue what a Grandfather Clause is AND didn't bother to look it up. Now that's funny.

Airborne75th: Wow three posts, all containing the term 'Nazi'. I'm glad I make YOU sick. Please yarf all over your keyboard and rid the internet of yourself until you replace it. Or better yet a laptop! Your meek little tiny brain can't even form a position to debate from much less form the basis for a character assessment. So where in the Pentagon is the Anthrax made again?

Airborne75th: I think it's fine to Water Board Unarmed Combatants. I believe it is torture by definition alone and that definition should change, the English language is constantly changing. If it truly is torture, by definition, it has to be the least invasive and most humane 'torture' ever conceived. People have been Water Boarded on live TV and shrug their shoulders at the technique when all is said and done.

Ryguy1450: Ok, that'd be great if you could make sure that you're 100% accurate or as accurate as you can be. I have read the Bible and the Koran. I was interested in religion in college.

jigyoda: well lets see since, the original clause prevented certain groups from voting, clearly i don't know what im talking about

LittlePinky82: Why would I waste my time with some nobody? You're not even worth my vomit. And yes you do make me sick because you're for torturing children. How is that any different from a Nazi pig?

Bobinator3659: This pisses me off, doesnt seem very american to me.... you guys should really have more view, rates and subcribers too
