In the Middle East? Absolutely. You know, the wars started by GW Bush for fun and profit.
Now, Mr. Hyperbole, do tell me about all the "blood" the government has spilled here in the U.S. that outnumbers those fun little excursions.
Well let's start with the genocide of the Natives. Then we can add in the Philippines, striking workers our government had soldiers shoot over the years in the 19th and 20th centuries, besides the bonus army. The victims of the war on drug with all these botched raids, raids on the wrong people, etc., Ruby Ridge, Waco....and then we can go into our government's activities in central and south America.
Every time someone asks a con on this forum if they take advantage of government programs, the answer is invariably that yes, they do, because they're paying for it and they might as well use what's offered.
Every time someone points out that WalMart does the same, every con on this forum says yes, they're doing what they should to maximize revenue.
Finally -- as was pointed out to you on that thread, multiple times -- though you conveniently ignored it -- those intern jobs are NEVER intended to works as jobs, they are learning experiences for journalists in training. NO ONE pays interns enough to live on except in very high-flying Wall Street firms and the like. That meme was stretched, tweaked and beaten into submission as something intended to smear MoJo. Again, because conservatives fear that which they cannot buy.

Oh no you don't.
There are at least five threads running right now in which you righties refuse to accept any argument or statistic more than a few years old. Nice try, but you can't have it both ways.
Besides, we're talking about today's vile right-wingers murdering innocent people. The only way this RW filth is influenced by 200-year-old events is because someone -- now who could that be, Rush Limbaugh? -- is telling them they should be influenced.
These people barely have high school diplomas. Not to mention the fact that I have yet to meet a righty who doesn't think the natives, Filipinos, workers etc. had it coming. So don't try to kid me me that these RW murderers give a good god damn about any of those victims. Don't even try, because it's such a stupid argument, I'll probably hurt myself laughing.
Hm, I was on this thread before you were. Who's stalking who?
And, uh, in case you hadn't noticed, it makes you look REALLY stupid to make blanket assertions of ridiculous proportions and then try to back it up by making the challenger prove a negative.
Kind of embarrassing. I better get back to work, because watching people embarrass themselves makes me feel bad.
The behavior is more that of liberals not conservatives.
I vehemently disagree, and I'm tired of reading this nonsense on the political forums. This behavior is not typical of either conservatives or liberals. It is the behavior of unbalanced individuals, who feed off of ideological extremism -- us vs. them -- that your post demonstrates so well.
"The suspects in Sunday's shooting spree in Las Vegas that claimed the lives of two police officers and a shopper were a young married couple who espoused extreme pro-gun and anti-government views on their Facebook pages and who had spent time at the ranch of Cliven Bundy, whose standoff with the federal government made him a cause celebre in the so-called 'patriot' movement."
When is this country going to stop coddling these maniacs and start calling them out for what they are: terrorists?
pro-gun and anti-government doesn't mean your a terrorist and if the American people view "anti-government people as terrorist" because they are progun and anti-government maybe this 2 idiots might have a point in their line of thinking.

Go show some concern for the Leftwingers killing innocents, cops and each other in all the big cities across this country.

Don't try to put others' words in my mouth. I really don't care what others have posted on other threads, my posts here have been very clear. The US government has literally tons of innocent blood on its hands, for it or its defenders to whine about "anti-government" people killing a couple cops, well, that's just absurd. Our government is a violent bully of the world. It has no credibility or standing to judge anyone or anything as wrong.
