Well, since you asked, by campaigning against indefinite detention and torture, espcially in the case of civilian non-combatants, if for no other than the practical reason that doing so may protect our troops from getting the same treatment when they are captured.
By campaigning against the discharge from the military of six soldiers trained as Arabic translators simply because they are gay when there is a war on in which speedy translation of messages in Arabic can literally save soldiers lives.
By showing that the Bush Administration was lying when it said that contractors who uparmor humvees were operating at full capacity when they were not, thereby increasing the pressure on the Administration to take advantage of this excess capacity, and thereby save soldiers lives.
There are many more examples, of course. Want more? Just ask. But don't say you didn't. |

In other words, MK, they don't.
Thanks for playing. |

It is interesting that the Left's intrepretation of supporting the troops ( see mkltra post above) is always an adhoc and second rate rationalization of a primary grievance which, in turn, is usually a skewed version of reality. It is an attempt to give cover or force one to excuse the failings in the primary thrust of criticism so that the dimwitted will be more impressed by supposed good intentions than by the non sequiteur, thin induction, or even contradictions in the train of logic. A typical argument by the left which fools only their comrades. My fear, however, is that their logic does not demonstrate an intent to deceive or score points with the slower among us, but is really an xray of their logical apparatus in motion. |

Nice responses. Nothing that disputes the substance of my posts, of course. That would take work.
As you for you Jim, another bottle of wine and a semester as an undergrad might help, but I doubt it.

If the War in Iraq has accomplished a purpose, it has exposed the gap between the GOP elite - the fur wearing attendees of the inaguration balls - and those who vote for the GOP. The GOP elite sees war forever, whereas those who vote for the GOP - the families of military people, are rightly starting to question the competentcy of the civilian leadership and the purpose of the mission.
Did you watch the inaguration? Plutocrats. The right hates the Hollywood, i.e., the self-made stars and the jews. The left hates the GOP - the old and inherited money, the aristocracy, the legacies.
Which is more American? Why is the right so against the meritocracy? |

...and the military, but hasn't the balls to actually admit it. |

This is hysterically funny coming from you, since you never seem to respond on point to anything posted.

You're right. Ted Kennedy is a self-made man. He didn't inherit any money at all from his father. There are plenty of Democrats in the "old and inherited money", and plenty of self-made men in the GOP. This observation of yours is pure bunk.
As for hating the Jews: since when? The GOP supports Israel far more than the Democrats do. |

sorry MKultra, but the democrats are the plutocratic party.
Most political donations to the GOP were small ones. Most donations to the Donks were very large ones from very wealthy plutocrats.
and the jews. jews, I thought you and your fellow travellers keep saying the the admin is overrun with jews. The chrisitan right prefers the jews.
you struck out again. |

Again, another typical response from the Left which poses as above, below, beyond, or indifferent to reason along the lines of the Spinal Tap rocker whose music speakers went "all the way to 11."
As you for you Jim, another bottle of wine and a semester as an undergrad might help, but I doubt it.
A disjointed non sequituer with simliar weakness except that is likely sourced in a troubled psychodynamics of early childhood origins even though dressed up as teen age reminiscence.
As for the War in Iraq, fur wearing attendees, elites, plutocrats, Hollywood stars, jews, and meritocracy one can only get the sense that maybe the deconstuctionists were just engaged in a projection of their own mental processes. |
