BF_in_Indiana Posted November 6, 2004 Posted November 6, 2004 Thats actually another urban legend, and is also straying from the point. The US never suported UBL, per se. UBL was never even a "freedom fighter" in Afghanistan. He was actually more of a coordinator and financier, with Dad's bucks. His goals were at cross purposes to the US, and he was largely ignored by the CIA as a nuisance. The US supported the Afghans as a whole, because it was a by proxy way to fight the Soviets in an attempt to keep Afghanistan from falling into the Soviet block. To save time here, we didn't support Sadaam either. Much to contrary belief. 104475[/snapback] Well so is saying buying drugs supports terror. If I went and bought a bag of weed from some hippie I hardly think it's going to some terror cell in Afghanistan. I'm not saying there is no chance that you wouldn't be supporting terror, but probably not a large chance of it.
BF_in_Indiana Posted November 6, 2004 Posted November 6, 2004 Hey look, BF lost the debate with VA! You can tell because he "resorted to name calling!" CW 104552[/snapback] I asked him what he was smoking. I never called him a name. And then you noticed that I continued to argue the point at hand.

Thank god the smart ones don't.
Fezmid Posted November 6, 2004 Posted November 6, 2004 I asked him what he was smoking. I never called him a name. Here's what you said earlier: Now we start with the personal attacks, the usual result at the end of a debate when one person is defeated. Amd now you're saying that, "What the hell are you smoking?" isn't a personal attack? If you say so CW
BF_in_Indiana Posted November 6, 2004 Posted November 6, 2004 A lot of people like you have that attitude.

If I did I'd still be wondering why we haven't found all those WMD's that George promised us when we went to Iraq.

BF_in_Indiana Posted November 6, 2004 Posted November 6, 2004 Ooops, deleted the last line of the original. "Just poking fun. " CW 104564[/snapback] LOL. I just saw it and laughed, it was funny.
CajunBillsBacker Posted November 6, 2004 Posted November 6, 2004 Damn, I need a drink after reading this thread this early in the morning.
BF_in_Indiana Posted November 6, 2004 Posted November 6, 2004 Damn, I need a drink after reading this thread this early in the morning. 104571[/snapback] Probably the mention of Bush at the end. I can understand.

You could be first on the list when Bush brings the draft back.
BF_in_Indiana Posted November 6, 2004 Posted November 6, 2004 Better be careful, there, BF. You could be first on the list when Bush brings the draft back. 104587[/snapback] Nope I can't be drafted. My vision prevents it. It sucks, I wanted to go into the millitary at one point in time. My brother seems to be making a good living doing it.

gmac17 Posted November 6, 2004 Posted November 6, 2004 So, do you guess these people actually have homes, and simply make themselves look "Homeless" to make the easy money? ( i know, I know.. that sounds ridiculous), or are they just so into drugs, etc, that they blow whatever they take in on that? I mean, if you're making 60k a year, that's going somewhere. I know someone who gave a pair of shoes to a homeless guy in NYC who was without shoes in the winter. next day, the guy was there without shoes....you make a lot better money without shoes than with!
Live&DieBillsFootball Posted November 6, 2004 Posted November 6, 2004 Sorry if this is a repeat, but wow... 9 years? http://www.cnn.com/2004/LAW/11/03/spam.trial.ap/index.html 103352[/snapback] The biggest problem that I see with this is not that he got 9 years, but that his sister only got a fine. There is some real sexual discrimination going around when you read about a guy and a girl getting convicted and he gets a lot more time than she does. Women want equality. Well, there should be equality in prison sentences!

Of course, being such an insular group, they couldn't ship it very well and had to enlist the help of other worldwide drug cartels...you can guess how deep the connection between the drug cartels and Islamic terrorism are from that.

It's government propoganda.
