The Dems got swiftboaters too. :haha:

Radar 09-07-2008 01:30 AM

Not really. The swiftboaters were lying. These people aren't.

classicman 09-07-2008 08:36 PM

Of course they aren't lying - they agree with you.

smoothmoniker 09-07-2008 09:54 PM

This is a sad old man on a crusade of misinformation. These charges have been raised before, and laid to rest.

Radar 09-07-2008 10:27 PM

Wrong. They have not been laid to rest. They have been proven to be factual.

when i first came to the cellar i thought radar was a caricature of a libertarian. now he seems a caricature of himself. :(

I'm too lazy to follow all those links and watch all those vids at work.
Anyone care to tell me what the difference between the various accounts of what happened are?

Big Sarge 09-08-2008 08:32 PM

Did any of you read the text of these "documents" provided by Task Force Omega, INC (what a name!)? Have any of you ever heard an American use terms like, "They flew very fast, very strongly." Man read these transcripts. Do you honestly believe a US Naval Academy graduate would use that sentence structure? Also, much of this information was released through Cuba. Lord Radar, you are really grasping for straws

classicman 09-08-2008 08:37 PM

Sorry Zen, but that's a matter of perspective. Then again I'm sure the poster would be glad to tell you what to think.

Okay, register Radar not as LIB on the voter registration lists, but as DEM (toetag).

Wasn't it T. Boone Pickens who put up one million dollars, kept in a special account, as an award for anyone who could prove Unfit For Command was either lying or in error... and that money is still there since '04, every cent? I presume the account is interest bearing.

If you really had the wherewithal to prove your silly notion, Paul, you could make a million off of Pickens. I don't think this will happen. You shall instead mentally masturbate, and post the occasional ejaculation here.

This year, the Libertarian Party is running Bob Barr who is not a libertarian in the slightest. That is to say, he's exactly as libertarian as you are.

The Bush administration did more damage to America than any other president in American history including Lincoln, FDR, Taft, Wilson, Clinton, and Nixon.

McCain will continue his failed and destructive policies and he'll most likely die while in office leaving us with an airheaded neocon. Bush nearly destroyed America, and they would finish the job.

This year will be no different. Either a Republican or a Democrat will win. So my choice is to pick the candidate that is least offensive to true libertarians. Normally, I'd vote for the libertarian candidate, but since the LP is no longer run by actual libertarians and they are running a candidate who isn't a libertarian, I'm going to go with Obama.

I don't like him as a candidate, but he is leaps and bounds better than Barr or McCain. He will end the blatantly unconstitutional and wholly unlibertarian war in Iraq.

Sure he will - and he'll lower taxes and give us Universal Healthcare and and and and ad nauseum. He won't do squat just like the rest of them - He delivers a speech VERY well, but I don't see any substance behind it. I have similar negative views on the other guy too - too old too outdated too far right... The direction of America for at least the next four years is at stake and it doesn't look good no matter who gets elected.

These guys look at winning the election as the end, when it should be the beginning of an opportunity to serve and better this country.
