What's The Problem Democrats Have With Free Speech?

Tell me, all you left minded people, why does the Democatic party, and Barack Obama hate free speech so much?

Nancy Pelosi wants to shut the people up , then came the absurd suggestion that we reserect the so called "Fairness Doctrine" , and now Barack Obama is trying to play the same games he used to steal his first election, and has sent his lawyers to get the DOJ to stop McCain from playing the Ayers ads!

Why would anyone want to be a Democrat?

You are behind in this matter

It has already been sorted out

The hard right has taken to yelling "Fire" in a theatre.

It turned out to be a false alarm.

Time to embarrass the offenders by exposing their pranks.

It is the economy, stupid.

Thanks for nothing...?

Maybe... give it a little time between hits of whatever you're tok'in!

Stop speaking in some code "you" think is hip, and try saying something substantive for once!

smoke and mirrors

Whatever happened to those WMD?

I'd say it was Republicans doing the smoking. They were inhaling fear.

National policy based on lies is good for you, but not for me.

It is the economy, stupid.

Do you have a key on your back...

...because every day you wind that key and just regurgitate the same old sh*t.

What does this have to do with the Democrats always trying to suppress free speech?

And as far as smoke and mirrors go....you're the master! I have yet to see you give one single reasoned, relevant response to anything, its always off hand mumblings, or sarcastic incoherent rants about nothing?

If you want a serious answer

than write a serious dairy.

This dairy is mildly entertaining, partisan and not much else.

In light of the tone you set, I think my answers are more than appropriate.

As far as WMD...Now you can let it go!

More comedy from RW

Those WMDs in the links you provide? Not so much.

The munitions addressed in the report were
produced in the 1980s, Maples said. Badly corroded, they could not
currently be used as originally intended, Chu added.

Finida la comedia...

....I don't think he is saying all of it was old corroded and from the 1980's, maybe a batch of it was.

Even if they were old and corroded, sarin gas, mustard gas, radioactive material... come on now.

What did you think there was going to be in Iraq ? Shiny new missiles all painted pretty with English labels saying "Weapons of mass destruction" on them!

The left has turned their nose to the facts here long enough.

Who cares the condition of the containers or if they were installed on a rocket tip yet or not?

The facts are we did find WMD in Iraq , and idiots in the left constantly bring it up, wrongly stating we did not!?!?

But like most things with the left, thats not what they always said;

  •  
  •  'We know that he has stored secret supplies of biological and chemical weapons throughout his country.'  Al Gore, September 23, 2002
  •  
  •  'We have known for many years that Saddam Hussein is seeking and developing weapons of mass destruction.'  Ted Kennedy, September 27, 2002
  •  
  •  'I think Iraq is the most serious and imminent threat to our country.'  Senator John Edwards, February 24, 2002

    Actually he was saying it was all old

    From the first link you provided:

    The 500 munitions discovered throughout
    Iraq since 2003 and discussed in a National Ground Intelligence Center
    report meet the criteria of weapons of mass destruction, the center's
    commander said here today...
    The munitions addressed in the report were
    produced in the 1980s, Maples said. Badly corroded, they could not
    currently be used as originally intended, Chu added.

     

    I don't doubt that Saddam wanted to develop more. But it seems apparent that the protections and sanctions in place before we invaded were already preventing him from doing that.

    If the rationale for going to war was to destroy 20 year-old, corroded weapons, then woo hoo! Mission Accomplished!

    500 shells of sarin gas - not degraded

    Santorum
    and Hoekstra - and others - say that the existence of these 500 shells
    proves that there were WMD stockpiles in Iraq, and that it matters not
    when the WMD's were made
    .

    But this is the BOTTOM-LINE:

    UNSCR #1441 DEMANDED that Saddam make a full and final declaration of all of his WMD's.

    The
    fact that MANY WMD ITEMS - these 500 WMD artillery shells, and parts
    for NUCLEAR CENTRIFUGES, for example - were found in Iraq, and WERE NOT
    DECLARED BY SADDAM, PROVES BEYOND
    A SHADOW OF A DOUBT, BEYOND ANY REASONABLE DOUBT, BEYOND ANY DOUBT AT
    ALL, THAT SADDAM'S DECLARATION WAS NOT "FULL & FINAL", BUT PARTIAL,
    OBFUSCATORY, AND A DIRECT VIOLATION OF THE HEART & SOUL OF UNSCR
    #1441.

    UNSCR #1441 was EXPLICITLY, OVERTLY, SIMPLY, UNALTERABLY, AND OBVIOUSLY MEANT AS SADDAM'S LAST CHANCE.

    Saddam's decision to LIE AND NOT COMPLY with UNSCR #1441 was the reason we HAD TO GO TO WAR. The
    500 WMD artillery shells found in Iraq since 2003 proves this. We
    should all thank Santorum and Hoekstra for putting more of the proof on
    the table.
    For all to see.

    Only
    dingbats of denial - blinded by BDS, or by delusions of "peace through
    isolationism, appeasement and retreat" - refuse to see what is as plain
    as day - AND UTTERLY UNDENIABLE: THE WAR WAS RIGHT, LEGAL, JUST, AND A
    POWERFUL MESSAGE TO OUR ENEMIES:
    "Don't tread on me, the law, or the truth."

    UPDATE: The shells are still deadly - according to the BBC .

     

    From here.

    Semantics again...

    there may have been "illegal" chemicals, but they don't seem to carry the mantra of weapons of mass destruction.

    The US seems to have used chemical weapons in Iraq that were deadlier than those shells.

    one link that disputes your links

    And don't forget that Saddam was "planning" on using al Qaeda as surrogates to attack the US and that was the reason why Bush used the UN resolution to stop that "inevitable" event.

    Come on Brother...

    ...We found WMD, its that simple.

    Why do you guys always, ALWAYS..AL W A Y S.... blame bush for everything, especially Iraq, when that is absurd!

    Its like if you think the American people are so stupid if you say its Bush's fault they will forget the democrats had as much to do with it as we did! And the real part the American people should remember is Republicans stayed and won the war, you all turned your backs on it, that's how history will judge you.

    The link is lost....

    but I said in the past that HRC was either lying or is blind if she thought Bush wouldn't for sure use his "authorization to use force if necessary", especially after Bush's State of the Union Address in 2002.

    ....found "WMD"

    So your under the impression that the 500 or so shells found were usable to create a "chemical weapon ofmass destruction. "
    I'm being picky and only calling chemical weapons "WMD" if it is usable and can create "mass" destruction far greater than an astray 2,000 lb bomb.

    And I'm not one of "you guys"

    Well there was more than that...

    ...read the materials.

    And remember at the time we went in he was trying desperately to hide the stuff, so it was all over in various forms.

    And just those 500 munitions of that type would cause significant loss of life.

    Not much more than that....

    Re-read the links that leave a lot to the imagination....like these:

    Link 2:

    Monday's early morning raid found 11 precursor agents, "some of them quite dangerous by themselves," a military spokesman, Lt. Col. Steven A. Boylan, said in Baghdad....Boylan said the suspected lab was new, dating from some time after the U.S.-led invasion of Iraq in 2003. The Bush administration cited evidence that Saddam Hussein's government was manufacturing weapons of mass destruction as the main justification for the invasion. No such weapons or factories were found.

    Link 3:

    Polish troops had been searching for munitions as part of their regular mission in south-central Iraq when they were told by an informant in May that terrorists had made a bid to buy the chemical weapons, which date back to Saddam Hussein's war with Iran in the 1980s, Gen. Marek Dukaczewski told reporters in Warsaw.

    Link 4:

    ....nearly two tons of uranium and hundreds of highly radioactive items that could have been used in a so-called dirty bomb, the Energy Department disclosed Tuesday.... The haul included a "huge range" of radioactive items used for medical and industrial purposes, said Bryan Wilkes, a spokesman for the Energy Department's National Nuclear Security Administration.... Uranium is not suitable for making a dirty bomb. But some of the other radioactive material - including cesium-137, colbalt-60 and strontium - could have been valuable to a terrorist seeking to fashion a terror weapon.

    If Saddam just kept trying to more effectively kill people through kinetic energy, everything could have much rosier for him.

    Look you rationalize it anyway you like...

    ...they had a newly built lab, mobile labs, all the materials, ...and remember he was trying to spread the stuff around, and hide it, ...so we were never going to find a hanger full of newly built - pretty - shiny shells - all lined up nicely - with a sign on the door in english that said - WMD Hanger on it.

    LOL, talking about the dingbats of denial...
    Maybe when the monkey-boy was talking about mushroom cloud he really meant someone farting after eating mushroom soup? Gosh darn it, how were the Iraq's mighty armies supposed to use those artillery shells against the US? Return them to the manufacturer for warranty service?

    You're upset because Obama wants the McCain-supporting 527s to follow the campaign financing laws that McCain authored (with Feingold) and got passed?

    The ad violates

    the McCain/Feingold law.

    Note the name McCain in the law. So his campaign is violating a law that McCain helped write.

    That is why the matter was referred to the DOJ. It's a violation of the McCain-Feingold law.

    You can be silent on a law that you co-authored if you have no sense of honor or decency.

    Good Lord even Fox News agreed not to air the ad, cause it was over the top.
