So what a great story (if only it were true) to bash Bush over the head with. Gee, I wonder why msnbc or cnn are not running with it? I wonder why Pelosi isn't calling for an investigation. I can't even find anything on Murphy's web sites that talk of this. Just left wing blogs...How about some proof sasquatch. Only an America-hater would belie ...[text shortened]... it so easy for you to hate, but it makes you and your blind rhp supporting ilk look pathetic.

Yes, it's called an election. Stop voting REPUBLICAN!

So it's a 'marvelous opportunity' eh? Over 200 people who lost their jobs and are losing their homes and we are supposed to be happy?
See that's part of the problem... people don't care about other people's suffering, all they care about is getting ahead for themselves.
This is definitely the Republican attitude in my area, Flint Michigan, where we have 10% unemployment.

this looks like a vaguely sane piece on this story.

Originally posted by Arrakisyes i found this too. this is what all the bloggers reference, this one site taken from the Balkin blog spot. No cnn, no msnbc, no other news source, just blogs. But I'm sure these people do not have an anti-Bush agenda.

if it were true I would think it needed to be investigated. If the investigation discovered he was put on a watch list because of a speech (and that was the ONLY reason) i think it would be completely wrong and unamerican. But thousands of lies about Bush and/or America are told every day by the tens of thousands that hate Bush. I would hope that people would not just believe them because they want to believe them.
Seems the Princeton web page should be a reasonable source of information, although wiki did say he's 'allegedly' on the list.

Originally posted by Phlabibityes, this whole story probably stems from this quote which is the only mention of this incident in this interview: "Yes. I’m a retired colonel in the Marine Corps [awarded the Purple Heart and Distinguished Service Cross], which would indicate that I’m probably not a terrorist. But I did speak against Bush [at Princeton last September]. That’s the only reason I can give." So, doesn't sound like the clerk at the airport said the stupid remarks the blog says she said. Sounds like it's his opinion that ("that's the only reason I can give" ) his speach put him on a terrorist list (which we have NO PROOF HE IS ON). One simple assumption and/or remark by him is spread across the blogging world as fact, and knucklheads like sasquatch believe it.

Originally posted by ArrakisBack in the day when a bank would foreclose on a farm, the bank would put all the farm equipment up for sale to be bid on by anyone who wanted it. The idea was that the bank would sell the farm assets to recoup their costs.

The local farmers would then band together and agree to only bid 1 dollar for all the equipment. The bank would gain very little money from the sale. The farmers would then sell the equipment back to the farmer for a dollar that the bank foreclosed on and he would start a new farm.
I don't think anyone today would be that kind.

you are. you believe everything negative said about this country. Then you spread it over your "life" (otherwise known as rhp debates) as if it were fact. The fact that you believe this crap, without question, means only 1 thing. You hate your country.
You appear to love what your country has become.
