Keep in mind the new Homeland Security idea was also a dem idea, and it ruined our ability to respond to disasters.
Unfuckingbelievable! You have got to be kidding me randman. This may be one of the boldest piles of complete and utter bullshit you have ever posted here! I seem to recall a certain Democrat that suggested the idea of a "homeland security department" prior to 9/11, which the Republicans refused to discuss. After 9/11 however, the current version we have now was put into effect and that same Democrat (who spoke out against it) was voted out of office on the grounds that he was unpatriotic. Remind me again randman...how many limbs did that individual leave in Vietnam? How about his opponent...the Republican that won the election? Did he even serve...I think not. I can’t fucking believe that you would have the gall to write something like this. A new low...even for you.

Re: Good post -invective = excellent post
AdminOmni:
I know and I apologize. I was incredibly pissed-off while I was typing (stunned that he could say such a thing)...and believe it or not, I even cleaned it up a bit before I sent it. In all honesty, I thought I'd get suspended...but I didn't care. Randman's statement was, however, a complete heap of equine road-apples
Thanks for the warning though...I'll learn to "play well with others" before responding to him again.

Are you trying to deny the dems were the first to push for the Dept of Homeland security?
Are you completely incapable of reading and understanding a sentence?

What's your beef? It's a factual claim, and as any conservative would have predicted, a larger beaurocracy is not necessarily more effective, and as we saw with Katrina, putting FEMA under Homeland Security did not work out well.
My beef is when people such as yourself try to, AS ALWAYS, blame the Democrats. Who's in charge randman? Last I checked, the Republicans were pretty much running the show, so if you want to blame someone for the fiasco of "homeland Security and FEMA"...well...you figure it out.

Bigger is not better when it comes to government.
I'm sorry, which party is it again that has increased the size of the Government? Have you seen the budget submitted by this administration? Cuts to anything having to do with the poor and education, while hundreds of billions to the pentagon and homeland security.

Re: Consistency and Honesty and integrity lacking in Bush administration
randman writes:
There's a reason for that. First, there was the uncanny timing of the Clinton war attacks that just happened to deflect off of impeachment proceedings and things like that. Secondly, the simple fact is the GOP was reluctant to get into nation-building prior to 911, but after 911, it was war and typically everyone defers to the president in such times, and Bush was persuaded by the neocons that democratizing Iraq could change the equation in the Middle East.
You are simply incredible randman. I'm curious, are you able to keep a straight face when you type this stuff, or do you just burst out in laughter? I mean seriously...Clinton attacked Kosovo to deflect attention away from impeachment hearings but the Republicans weren't gonna be fall for that ole trick? You're priceless, you know it.
