How do you define "modern terrorist movement"?

And based upon your premise: Democrat = Socialist, you don't either.


Odd, I don't recall such a premise. Please provide a quote of me stating
that.

Eric has a vivid imagination when it comes to things others say.

If you think being a conservative means voting for big government
entitlement programs for every special interest group, a complicated
tax code, trade barriers and concessions to big labor... I supose then
you'd be right.

If you believe those are conservative principles then you have verified
that it is you that does not understand conservative principles.

Apparently you can't even read. Even a trite strawman is less
frustrating to disect than absolute incompetance.

Did you even read the first paragraph yet and see what it meant? Or
are you capable of reading more than a line at a time? (In which case
you wont have gotten this far.)

What I was suggesting, if you can wrap your head around this, is that
conservative principles are for small government, no pork, free trade,
that sort of thing. Has this changed to mean something else? Now if
you have redefined conservative principles to mean any spending
program the congress wants, the president signs and any spending
program the president wants, congress delivers, I suppose Mr Bush
certainly is your candidate.


You still do not understand. Review my previous messages until you do.

Just for kicks I took all your messages in this thread. They're all
simplistic one liners, all assertions without evidence. None of your
previous messages have any content at all, and I'm afraid this
particular thread must be concluded... as you've demonstrated yourself
incapable of any argument at all. Now, I'm not normally taken with
ad-hominem remarks, but really theres no argument to attack, so whats
left? You're too pathetically stupid to have a conversation with, let
alone argue a difference of opinion.

Former countries from the USSR that are Muslim, aligned with other
anti-western Muslim countries to the point where they produce enough of a
force that is willing to die at our expense.

What is so bad that these people are willing to commit suicide to kill
us? They obviously are missing something...

So now the Democrats are NOT Socialists? Talk about flip-flop! Speaking of
flip-flops, I saw a TTL chip labeled, "J-K Flip-Flop", and immediately
knew where the whole John Kerry flip-flop came from.

Not really. It was just a 'different sort' of socialism. It only
applied for their own people. The subhumans didn't count, any more
than socialists these days work for national health care for cattle or
dogs.

So what about terrorist acts prior to GW1? Were they part of an "ancient
terrorist movement"?

Congratulations. You clearly demonstrate that you don't know what
'fascism' means (along with most other words, apparently).
