1. Is being a complete chicken (vs. America: home of the brave) a requirement for being in the GOP?
These brave white men are terrified that some other country might get enough arms to keep out American aggression and their pat answer is to nuke everybody first. What cowards!

4. Pre-emptive strikes, Newty?
Edited on Fri Apr-03-09 10:39 AM by AlbertCat
That is sooooooo last year!


Just like 9/11?

What makes you think Obama's team will be looking the other way, asleep at the wheel, or even helping to facilitate an attack like the Bushies? After all, there was oodles of warning. They didn't use missiles, but box cutters and our own planes.

This utter reliance on lasers and military high tech.... hasn't it been proven to be not so reliable?


Same ol' GOP message: Be AFRAID!

5. This guy used to be the leader of the GOP???
I swear, they become crazier every day. Don't you think No. Korea, if they're as smart as Newt seems to believe, would be smart enough to know better then to attack the U.S.? Don't you realize that the nukes from a single sub could obliterate the entire Korean penninsula? Several times over? Does he really think the Republican's M.O. of threats and intimidation worked? And we're going to go over there and shoot it with lasers?


I have come to the conclusion that, without something, ANYTHING feasible to complain about (see Monica Lewinski), they're reduced to raving lunatics. Almost makes you think the destruction of their party is on purpose.

7. I wish there was a bomb that you could trigger that would seal that lying mouth of his shut

Now THERE'S a weapon I could support. That or we can point a laser at his vocal chords. LOL - this is the kind of person who will forever be scaring himself into the dark. Good luck with that - with all our might and with a huge force after 8 years, the might of the United States can't even maintain Iraq or Afghanistan... to somehow represent that these folks will somehow overtake the U.S. in one fell swoop is simply ridiculous. It is fear that he uses to try to make his case, just like the Church uses fear of going to hell. Well, he needs to rethink his 'fear factor' and think about the 'reality factor'.

11. Asshole right there.
Just like Bush leading up to the Iraq War. What would you do if you were president? If he were president I would vomit. He is a fuckin' NAZI.

12. Newt Knows about this technology....
...since it was the same thing that brought down Paul Wellstone's plane in Minnesota and if anybody should know it would be Republican 'insiders'.

13. We'll wake up one morning and be back to pre-industrial times...
because those sneaky North Korean bastards will attack us at night when everybody at NORAD is asleep.
