I am not going to insult your intellect for refusing to understand the difference, because I know damn well you get there is a difference and just are refusing to acknowledge it exists... just like you refuse to acknowledge that Limbaugh is a heartless prick

I went back and looked at your post again Sanity. I do not see an invasion. I see troops going in to help with evacuations, rescues, clean up, even body removal. Along side that i see protection provided, a massave water treatment team, and floating hospitals. Cuba has sent over 400 Dr's. I do not see an invasion.

Ron The Navy hospital ship USNS Comfort steamed out of Baltimore where it had been docked for maintenance and is on its way to Haiti this morning. No doubt a part of our vast invasion armada. [8\|]

Sanity -> RE: Rush Drawing fire for his haitian comments (1/16/2010 8:42:23 AM)
I included that information in my above-referenced post vince, but thanks for your contribution anyway. Do you ever wonder how many hospital ships accompanied our soldiers' "peace keeping mission" in Iraq?

Ron Because we were not invited into Iraq to help them solve any problems, not welcome once we came, it was an invasion, it was....... If you advocate the devil, at least find something comparable.

Sanity -> RE: Rush Drawing fire for his haitian comments (1/16/2010 8:44:56 AM)
Who invited us, the armed gangs who are presently controlling the streets there? This isn't a baby fell down a well situation, this is a war zone. quote: ORIGINAL: mnottertail quote: ORIGINAL: Sanity I have clearly demonstrated that we are invading Haiti julia, in this post: http://www.collarchat.com/fb.asp?m=3011351 quote: ORIGINAL: juliaoceania We did not "help" Iraq... we invaded it.... geesh You haven't really demonstrated shit.

You aren't aware that a good portion of Iraq was literally being held hostage Ron? quote: ORIGINAL: mnottertail Because we were not invited into Iraq to help them solve any problems, not welcome once we came, it was an invasion, it was.......

And Iraq was not being held hostage anymore than any other dictatorship in the world... are we going to invade every other place on the planet?

mnottertail -> RE: Rush Drawing fire for his haitian comments (1/16/2010 8:59:47 AM)
Well, no, and really nobody was. We were overflying protecting Kurds. But held hostage, like a good portion of the country? Hostage to what? Everybody owns guns there, tell you what, if that is the weak line of reasoning now (since all others have been summarily and soundly rebutted) then lets take Dismal Seepage, IA hostage, and see how that would play out in america. My bets is that at least the tea baggers would invade and help them out. Uh, so if a portion was indeed held hostage, where was the uprising, they damn sure aint afraid of us, we get bombed all the time, and shot at. Saddam loomed so much larger that the populus shat its collective pants compared to the full might and treasury of the United States? This wasnt the first time we been there........... Nah, bullshit. If they were held hostage, it is a manufactured argument of neo-cons, and they were held captive in the fantasy of neo-cons sense of ideological rightness. Pass; again. Ron

Jeffff -> RE: Rush Drawing fire for his haitian comments (1/16/2010 9:04:11 AM)
But Ron... what about the WMD's ? Colin Powel, George Tenant et al.

See, this is the value of putting that fruitbat on ignore. He sees a thread that puts his beloved Rush in a bad light, and bangs away for a day or two trying to find some way to derail it so that it's not about his hero anymore. His first few attempts miss the mark, but he keeps trying, and eventually he stumbles across a gambit that works - claiming that the American relief effort is actually a military invasion, no different than the invasion of Iraq. Except worse, in some vague, inexplicable way. And suddenly the thread's not about his master, Rush, anymore. Now it's about Iraq, and the evil lefties. Just like he always does, he's spammed the thread with page after page after page of psychotic babbling about how Obama is invading Haiti with a fleet of hospital ships. That's the value of just blocking the idiot - granted, the thread's still effectively derailed, but you don't have to wade through several pages of his bullshit posts in order to pick out the worthwhile contributions by the normal posters.

tazzygirl -> RE: Rush Drawing fire for his haitian comments (1/16/2010 9:17:59 AM)
Its not about Iraq. Its not about Obama Its about Haiti Its about helping those people... 2 million of which are children. Its about NOT turning your back on people in times to disaster Its about humanity Something Rush needs to learn.

No, I am afraid I have to disagree with you here, tazzy....for the sufferers of Obama Derangement Syndrome, EVERYTHING is about Obama. This thread is just the daily Two Minute Hate on Obama.

Rush is a psychopath... those sorts can't learn In keeping with the original point of the thread: I will not phrase it that way, as it is inflammatory. What I will say (referring back to my previous post) is that Rush does not understand that we have a moral obligation to provide aid. Furthermore, Rush does not understand that it would have not mattered who was sitting in the Oval Office this week; republican OR democrat, the President would have given aid. [Rush] does not comprehend that even if it was true that humanitarian assistance was solely politically motivated in this case, that is is much the lesser of 2 evils: giving aid or withholding it to make a point.

Sometimes its difficult to avoid sinking to the same level of the lowest that these forums have to offer, but in this case I am going to resist taking the bait, and I think I am a better man for it. quote: ORIGINAL: ThatDamnedPanda See, this is the value of putting that fruitbat on ignore.
