CNN has lost it

[GeorgeSSSS]

There is war in Iraq and Afghanistan, Iran is building nuclear weapons, and Hamas has been elected on a platform of destroying Israel.

In the face of all this, on Friday, Feb 17, CNN broadcast a special investigation on -- get this -- the quality of ice in 7-11s and fast food restaurants. THE QUALITY OF ICE IN 7-11s AND FAST FOOD RESTAURANTS.

I didn't think they could top their incompetent, biased reporting. But they have.

Its OK SSG!

A liberal is just a conservative that hasn't been mugged yet. He'll wake up any day now...

I don't think you understand.

You are obviously a very smart guy. Accomplished a lot or else you wouldn't be able to get such an expensive truck.

Yet you can't appreciate the importance of simple things like clean food and air.

Slow down and smell the wildflowers. You are missing out on the good stuff.

Hugs...

Pinkie, as a real man and a soldier who just returned from Iraq I’d like to invite you to take your ball and shove it up you’re a’ss!

Who in the FU’CK do you think you are coming here and spewing this sh’it! My Task Force lost 10 good men over there, 2 on a convoy I was on and you’re going to hide behind the internet and say their lives were pissed away!? FU’CK YOU ASS’WIPE!!! We were over their defending your right to be a complete and total fu’cking idiot.

Jesus H Christ I’m sick and tired of hearing bullsh’it like this. Anyone with half a brain could see it’s wrong. If we went to war for oil why the fu’ck did I pay $3.30 a gallon when I came home for leave in August and the Iraqis were paying 5 cents a gallon? Why don’t you come up with a new line that makes a half an ounce of common sense.

Another lie from the pit of Hell. You’ve got your head shoved so far up you’re a’ss you haven’t seen the light of day in years. The last time I checked I wasn’t poor. Neither was anyone in my unit. If we’re disproportionately (learn to spell jack’ass) anything it’s conservative. Maybe in the fantasy world you live in we’re poor but those of us living in the real world are doing just fine.

I’d like to invite you to take you and you’re attitude problem and get the fu’ck out of our AO. I really hate people that stick their nose into somebody else’s business and that fits you to a T. You have the right to hate Hummers and all SUV’s (service members like me gave it to you) but you don’t have the right to come here and run your mouth. So take your ball and run home to Mama.

What could possibly be more important than the food our families and children eat?

All that middle east crap is thousands of miles away.

The ice affects us here & now.

Wake up guy.

BTW... your trucks are killing the planet.

ice is not food

Fact is haveing to look for funding for college and being poor are two very different things. I took the GI Bill to go to college but that doesn't make me poor. Go look down your nose at someone else.

No, I have no interest in discussing anything with you. I'm just not going to let you get away with saying good men had their lives pissed away.

Don't split hairs with me.

You know the ice touches our food.

Sorry I've been scarce Neo...

Last night I went into the H2 chatroom and then 4 guys jumped up and chat-humped me. It was aweful. It was like they had mistook me for the Ghey Lantern...

I slept in till noon this morning & I'm still exhausted. But you should see the four guys...

I can tell from the 'tude behind your post that you and I aren't going to agree on much, but I can see you are on of the mature ones around here. Obviously you not one of those nancy boys that duck the arguement when it comes up.

So lets have it out.

The real problem, the reason why we are in a world of hurt over in the middle east is that we consume way too much without planning for the future. We piss away most of what we get... then we take from little countries leaving them in poverty so we can consume thier resources.

The soldiers we have over ther have REAL balls. They don't have to pretend to be tough or brace they are. I sure as hell didn't have the balls to go.

My point is this: We owe it to our soldier not to piss away thier lives to allow the wealthy few to live in wasteful luxury.

What do I wanna see? I want to see market driven incentives (not taxes) for energy reform. How about NO ROAD FUEL TAX on biodiesel for 10 years? That would do something, hell it would even make your H1 cheaper to drive...

How that for a flaming liberal? We're not all stupid you archie bunker wanna be. We just admit we care about people and want a community.

Real me aren't afraid to face the facts. War for oil is our own fault. Should we win... yeah we sort of have to at this point. But we should at leasst TRY to make sure we don't have to piss away the lives of our men in uniform.

They matter most. Even if they do come from the ranks of the disproportionally poor.

The ball is in your court....

A) My rights were given me by GOD, not by you arrogant over-inflated self-righteous self.
</div></BLOCKQUOTE>This is the most asinine statement I have heard spewed from a slacked faced numbskull pretending to be an intelligent being. God gives you nothing, but a chance. Look at the millions of people that DO NOT afford the same rights you do and tell them that God gave you your rights. Humanity of the United States and an Ideal that men are equal and have certain inalienable rights were fought for by MEN, not God. Many men have lost their lives to win these rights as well as to defend these rights.

While you have a "right" to mock it, morally you don't. Your freedoms are are not free but come at a cost yet you so flippantly refer to their existance. Really, who the hell do you think you are to assume you might have even the remote possibiltiy of the single capacity to comprehend what course an Administration should have or should be taking based on knowledge afforded it and only it. How can you pretend to second guess the decisions by the current and previous administrations without lifting one ire of the circumstances surrounding the who whats whens and wheres. How can you judges the situation when you conceptually own less than 1% of the total knowledge needed to form a valid opinion.

Which brings us all the way back around to your rights. One of which you solely have shown you do not possess and that is the right to opine on this subject. Without validity or something approaching full knowledge your opinion is exactly the opposite and more like an estimation.

Not as sweet as smart coments and snide remarks.
