Silverfox Posted January 16, 2009 Posted January 16, 2009 Yeah I know that. I also stole an icecream once... doesn't make it right. Bingo. And if the West walks away, they essentially admit that they were wrong. Aint going to happen, is it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
suchuwato Posted January 16, 2009 Posted January 16, 2009 So you cut your losses, throw the ice cream into the trash compactor, and walk away? Pretty much, yes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoArmistead Posted January 17, 2009 Posted January 17, 2009 And leave the Jews to fend for themselves, outnumbered 20 to 1 and completely surrounded on all sides by muslim radicals who would LOVE to eat them for dinner. Fine by me... only if we abandon them, as we have done, we have no right to judge them in whichever actions they take to preserve their well being as they see it. Obviously the problem is large enough that the western hegemons don't even want to use their combined might to touch it, so who can blame the little country of Israel for being a little itchy on the trigger?

ExRoadie Posted January 17, 2009 Posted January 17, 2009 Back to the Taxes! I have a problem with the Government demanding that businesses be responsible for collecting the tax and incurring all the expense. When I purchase goods for business consumption from vendors outside of Mississippi, I am not charged the Mississippi "use" tax but I must report the taxable amount at the State, County and City level for each and every purchase. As a business person I feel we do enough of the Government's dirty work already. Collecting and reporting taxes is mind-numbing work and god forbid you make a mistake because they will rain down on you like a swarm of locust going over your books to find every last penny of "their money".

Kash Posted January 17, 2009 Posted January 17, 2009 Once he gets access, if he doesn't already, to real Intel we'll see what happens. The President-elect gets essentially the same intelligence briefings that the President does. they will rain down on you like a swarm of locust going over your books to find every last penny of "their money". They've already accounted for that money, so of course it's theirs. You thought it was your money? How silly Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coors Posted January 17, 2009 Posted January 17, 2009 I meant before he was president elect. His 16 month timeline he talked about during the primaries is not gonna happen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kash Posted January 17, 2009 Posted January 17, 2009 It's the same time line the Bush administration adopted and the Iraqi government supported. Seems as though Obama was doing just fine with the briefings he was getting as a member of the Foreign Relations Committee Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kamikaze_Badger Posted January 17, 2009 Posted January 17, 2009 meh. This isn't near as important as what he's gonna do with the troop withdrawal. Theres no way in hell his 16 month pullout is gonna happen. Once he gets access, if he doesn't already, to real Intel we'll see what happens. Everyone, other countries included, will be paying close attention to what he does. Hopefully he doesn't screw it up. Yeah, you know much more about the war than he does, right? Sadly I can't find a good way to brag about the fact that I have Secret Clearance for the Army and you don't, so I'll just say it here.

Coors Posted January 17, 2009 Posted January 17, 2009 Actually I have a TS/SCI clearance. I'm just saying a 16 month pullout is not feasable. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
