  1. To answer your question, yes. It would of been a real tragedy if something like that got out...It would of undone alot of the good of taking out such a horrible human being. Rather than just doing the world a favor in sending Osama to wherever his afterlife is, we would of been heavily criticized and that´s how the rest of the world would remember about Osamas death. Not that he was just a piece of ****, but that the US showed their true colors in how they dealt with his death. That´s how we would of been remembered. We should be a country that leads, that shows class, even to our worst enemies. Because thats what a true super power should do.
  2. WTF are you talking about? I answered the question, desecration of bodies is unacceptable period. Thats like asking why is lying unacceptable or cheating? It´s just inherently wrong. I´m not a very religious person, but I respect most peoples religious beliefs, and on the battlefield while they are alive, most everything is fair game. But when they die, that´s it, it´s over. No need to desecrate their body, whats the !@#$ing point?? And btw, PR matters, it´s tangible. It has lasting effects, so lets not pretend that the PR aspect of this is something that we can dismiss. It´s an embarrassment to our country. Let´s not act like a bunch of isolantionist neanderthals, we are above that.
  3. You just like to make **** up don´t you? I mean you literally pulled that out of your ass... Right now your ass must be gaping wide. http://dailycaller.com/2010/09/23/surprise-conservatives-are-more-generous-than-liberals/2/
  4. Because we are the Number 1 power in the world. The world looks up to us, we are suppose to set an example that we are above this sort of distastefullness. Just because our enemy are a bunch of vile creeps doesn´t mean that we should be vile as well. I´m gonna tell you this right now, those dudes !@#$ed up and anyone who thinks its ok has serious character deficiencies. Desecration of dead bodies is not acceptable in any circumstance.

  6. Exactly. It´s amazing how there isn´t a shred of blame being thrown at the Obama administration (which there really shouldn´t be anyway), but remember Abu Ghraib (sp)? Holy ****, you would of thought it was George Bush himself posing along with the inmates. It´s astonishing, it really is.
  7. Hillary would be unstoppable.
  8. It´s not a bad analogy, as a matter of fact, its a stupendous analogy. You can´t do that, not rationally anyway. You can´t make the argument that contributing through religious means doesn´t count as charity, thats EXACTLY what it is, charity. Jeez
  9. You are taking a flawed approach, what you are basically saying is look at this, they did worse, so it isn´t so bad what the Marines did. That´s just not the right way of looking at it. A more appropriate response would be, these guys !@#$ed up. And that´s it. What the !@#$ is wrong with you people?
  10. I´m gonna say this, as much as it pains me to say it, even though most people don´t want to identify themselves with the clowns of Occupy Movement ________ , the message HAS INDEED resonated. Income inequality and Capitalism are under siege, and what is funny and sad, is that people actually truly believe that tax policy is a major contributor to income inequality, and the belief is if you further tax the wealthy and adopt wealth distrubition policies that somehow the gap between the two closes. It´s an absurd idea, that doesn´t do anyone good. It is actually a very repressive response to our problems, all it does is enable those who CHOOSE to do less with their lives. When Mitt Romney says that right now, there is a battle for America´s soul, he´s right. We are at an inflection point, do we decide to go down a path of European style Democratic Socialism or do we preserve capitalism as it is today? No system is perfect, we all know that, but capitalism is what made the U.S what it is, and up to now, it is by far the best economic system out there. I´m afraid that we are slipping in the wrong direction, and the fact that you have self described ¨conservatives¨ attacking the free market economy is a very damaging development not just for their party, but for the country. I believe it has the potential to have a lasting impact and if this line of attack works with just even 10% of the conservatives, then that´s it. Social Democracy wins!
  11. Yes you !@#$ing moron! The vast majority of the population were innocent victims you dumb !@#$!
  12. But, but the president already took his victory lap.
  13. Really? You´re hopeless dude. This thread is truly disappointing. Some of you guys suck!
  14. And a rainbow, dont forget the rainbow.
  15. You guys are all focusing on the minutia of the characterization rather than the substance of the action. Jesus And, no, desecration of a dead body combined with the optics of how our country is perceived worldwide is much worse than pissing on a live body. And the fact that you find this video ¨funny¨, pretty much says everything I need to know about you
  16. Jesus Christ, Are we really gonna argue over a word/characterization? Whether you wanna call it horrific, disgusting, classless, whatever, it wasn´t right. That´s the bottom line here.
  17. I know we´ve made these sort of comparisons in the past, but do you remember how badly the Bush administration was criticized for Abu Ghraib (sp)? This is almost as bad, could you imagine the press and coverage this would receive if the Bush administration was still in place? and yes I would characterize this as horrific, you are talking about pissing on a dead body.
  18. Yep, business as usual. Romney is gonna have to go against all these networks when the Obama machine turns their focus towards him, lucky for him FOX news will be on his side. Almost a wash
