Nope. You're part of the craven, cowardly, crazed fringe if you attempt to shout down others' voices simply because you disagree them. Of course, you could always engage in civil conversation. Just an idea.
Honestly, there are plenty of differences, intelligence and patriotism (of Democrats) being the top two.

Stand your ground, Mr. President. All good Americans are behind you 100 percent. Remember that the critics in your audience are part of an ever-diminishing fringe who would rather resort to craven, cowardly, and crazed efforts to stop democracy through civil dialogue than allow the United States of America to move forward. You're to be commended for hearing their voices, since they lack the guts to let anyone else speak.

Ironic that if he'd been president from 2001 to 2009, America would never have been run into the ground by an awful dictator.

American Democrats have a problem with the Republican "president" who allowed Osama bin Laden to remain free almost eight years after the atrocities of 9/11. We have a huge problem with an incompetent Republican "C-n-C" who not only dropped the ball but then ran around the bases the wrong way but sending us into the wrong country, a.k.a. Iraq. But then, that's why we voted his "party" out of office and replaced them with Americans.

As expected, hypocrisy from a bush supporter and America hater. Fact is President of the United States of America Barack Hussein Obama was fairly elected by a majority of Americans, most notably those of us in the US military, and things can only get better with President Obama at the helm. He, unlike you and your ilk, trust that we US troops will emerge victorious, just like we trust President Obama to be a far better leader than his predecessor.

Bullshit. These brave people died because the previous "C-in-C" dropped the ball and let Al-Qaeda run amok in Afghanistan.

Except for the inarguable fact that what you've described is nowhere near what President Obama wants for America.

Republicans accuse Obama of socialism - and I could not be happier. Every time the Republicans spread a lie like Obama's alleged "socialism", the Republicans succeed only in marginalizing themselves even further than they already have (who'd've thought it was possible?).
Says it all; the Republicans know they're lying to people; the Republicans know they're tapping into the fears of the most uneducated, superstitious, and gullible people in America, whose numbers, thank Christ, diminish daily. Need more proof? Fine... check out the next quote from the article:
One of the things that most disgusted me about the previous administration was its shameless use of these little phrases and soundbites to make their "point", phrases that were easy for their idiot supporters to remember and always say emphatically, as if doing so made some deep statement. Don't you remember "Have you forgotten"? Well, my answer then and now is "Yep, I remember that it was Al-Qaeda that attacked us on 9/11, so why do you people wanna go into Iraq?" Never failed to shut up the Republicans. How about "liberal-leaning media" (my personal favorite)? Hell, any time I turn on the news, all I see is some piece of trash like Dick Cheney, Sarah Palin, or Rush Limbaugh spouting crap against President of the United States of America Barack Hussein Obama. Invariably, they can only childishly spew hatred; we're all still waiting for one, just one Republican to actually come up with an idea that's better than any one of President Obama's.
And now, we're into the Republicans' "Socialism! Socialism!" phase. "Washington takeover", huh? Yep, Washington has been taken over by the leaders elected by the American people. This little "Washington takeover" phrase is just as easily defeatable as the rest of their garbage soundbites. How so? Simple - people aren't buying the Republicans' lies anymore. Don't believe me? Again, check out the article:
Of course it doesn't, you miserable Republican peons! We know your accusations of "socialism" are lies. Hell, most Republicans don't even know what socialism is; they once again (wrongly) think that by uttering the word "socialsm", they add depth to their pathetic mewlings. It'd be laughable if it weren't so pathetic.
You see gang, nationalization of certain areas of the business and private sectors does not equal socialism. Yet again, check out the article:
So, I guess that makes bush as much a socialist as President Obama, huh? LOL!
So, to wrap up, I'm not afraid to admit that I enjoy being smarter than the conservatives who post their vile crap here and elsewhere; neither is the rest of the American people. It's those like you who set the example of what we'll never let our children become - hateful, racist, lying, traitorous garbage.
I'm also proud of my service, especially in light of the vast upswing in confidence and patriotism I've seen in my fellow US troops as a direct result of Obama's election as President of the United States of America.
So please, by all means, keep spitting out your venom towards President Obama; it gives us true Americans something to laugh at while we're supporting President Obama's efforts to clean up the mess his predecessor made of America.
And while your at it, get a dictionary and look up "socialism". You'll learn something you obviously didn't know before.

President of the United States Barack Hussein Obama's speech was brilliant. In it, he challenged both Americans and Muslims throughout the world to cast off their stereotypes of each other, he acknowledged the suffering of the Jews, particularly in view of the atrocities of the Holocaust, and reinforced America's commmitment to Israel, while at the same time holding both the Israelis and the Palstinians responsible for making peace, and never once did he "appease" or "apologize" to the Muslims.
President Obama is treating the Muslims the same as he treated the Republicans: sincerely extending the hand of friendship and partnership to them, but ready to act without their acceptance. He spoke directly to the Muslim people, telling them to reject the extremists in their midst. In short, he acted diplomatically, which is what our US generals have been saying was needed for years.
I thank God every day that I'm in a position to bolster the already-soaring support my fellow US troops give to President Obama instead of inventing ways to hate him (based on cherry-picking, misinforming the gullible, partisan politics, and/or racism). I'm honored to be in a position to directly serve the United States of America as opposed to being reduced to spewing easily-defeatable vitriol on a little-known and little-respected website.

...and followed every order I was given to the letter, much like Republicans who serve today follow Obama's. It's mentioned in the Oath of Enlistment; you might want to introduce yourself to it.

Molenir - Stop embarrassing yourself. Now.
Let me make this as absolutely basic as possible: we in the US military take our orders from the President of the United States of America, thus we support him. Your above statement makes it clear that you lump us troops in with what you call "nuts". Before that, you lumped us in with what you call "traitors". I take this from clearly, plainly, and competently reading your posts. And I beg to differ.
I don't give a damn about your position on Obama, Cheney, Powell, or Limbaugh. I'm telling you to stop disparaging us troops in your posts.
I'm done with you.

You've just accused every last man and woman serving in the US military of treason. I have to wonder how Limbaugh or Cheney or Powell, or better yet, John McCain, would respond to such a statement.

This doesn't remind me of it. My comment does, however, remind of another quote found later in your post:

Your attempt to discredit my statement has backfired, given that my statement is backed up by the very quote you included in your post.
But, hey, you were right about one thing: it wasn't that hard to win an argument against you, yet again.

Nope. They praised my commitment to my country, my duty, my oath, and particularly my hope for better days, which happily have arrived with the election of President of the United States of America Barack Hussein Obama.
It's called integrity. Look it up.

Ah, what the hell; I've got a few moments to throw in my two yen worth.
Anyhoo, let's see what we've got on the menu today, kiddies:
teleprompter -
Believe me, Rush doesn't terrify us Americans; he's one of our favorite comedians! I'd love to see a Tiny Fey/Rush Limbaugh double-bill!
More from teleprompter -
Nope. I teach my kids to recognize disgraceful trash like george w bush and dick cheney for the greedy un-Americans they are, but also to respect the position of President of the United States of America, especially now that we have the first real President since the awful day bush was "elected". I'm quite pride of my kids, as is everyone else in our community.
Yet more from teleprompter -
And my own father, a proud member of the US Army in the European Theater and proud Democrat all his a life. Dad was inarguably a great man. Of course, the difference between bush senior and Dad is that Dad's son (yes, that'd be me) actually served in the US military.
Ontopically, cheney backing limbaugh makes no difference. America has grown up and tagged the "republicans" for what they are - a dying minority of un-American, unpatriotic filth, unworthy of being remotely considered a party in American politics. Let them continue eating themselves and fading into obscurity. Pretty soon, the republicans will simply be a name in elementary school textbooks (like "Whigs") that gets talked about for 0.2 seconds and immediately dismissed as irrelevant.

WilliB - I challenge you to back your "statement" that justice for 9/11 in any way equates to "sending soldiers to die for nothing", or even more laughable, "propping up a Shariah [sic] government".
Looking forward to another swing and miss from you! xD

Getting justice for 9/11 is not a "pointless mission impossible to Afghanistan". It's necessary. No good American would disagree.
