You didn't say that at first.
But my point still remains: Liberal human rights groups were not CALLING for those dictators to be tried, but they were demanding Bush be tried. More hypocracy.
No, he was not. So stop making up things. And please do not call him a criminal. It's namecalling, which you yourself said is not allowed. Set an example as mod, and don't be a hypocrite, please.
Why do you always move the goal posts? American Liberals have every right to call for the trial of a U.S. criminal. Americans have no business telling other countries how to try and punish their criminals.
I stand corrected. He pleaded guilty.No, he was not. So stop making up things.

just gonna completely sidestep the africa thing, huh???
You're not getting what I'm pointing out.
You are 100% correct we have no right telling other countries what to do. But my point is that while the human rights groups are demanding Bush be tried in international courts of law, they are not demanding left-wing dictators who actually murder their own people be charged in those same courts. That's hypocracy.
No, he did not. Again, please stop making things up.
you really dont know about his criminal history as a younger man???
you act like you are knowing about all these things as you push the typical conservative rhettoric and you make mistakes on very obvious facts...
george bush was so convicted in a court of law, do some homework... 1976 convicted of drunk driving... he has had a handful of charges, most "taken care of" by family and family friends... he admitted to the cocaine thing too...
and then theres the africa thing... something i chose to adress as my own way of showing the holes in your game... and you just stepped right around the whole thing... you know what you said... this is how sound your theories are... you make absolute criticisms and paint all these things black and white and you dont even have a grasp on the issues... the africa thing was just a good way of pointing that out... but i take issue with alot that you say... i just dont bother to adress every detail of your wrongness...
Actually, Castro admitted that Wing Chun doesn't work and that communism will kick wing chuns ass.
there was a problem with translation...
Kung Fu is good for you.
Not at all. You just showed we have business interests over there, so I'll adress that.
American businesses have the right to deal with whoever they please, as long as they are not breaking US law concerning things like embargos, etc. But our Government has ZERO business giving out aid. Zero. The Constitution does not say it is our Government's job to make sure other countries can feed their people, provide medical care, etc. It may sound harsh, mean, uncaring, etc, but it is what it is. And to me, the Constitution is what we are supposed to follow.
Let's act like adults here and not get ridiculous.
By that logic, anyone who has had a speeding ticket can be branded a criminal for life. Get real. And we are talking about war crimes and hunamitarian issues, not DWIs. Quit bringing in stuff that is irrelevant.
And no, I am not giving him a pass for drunk driving. It's just not relevant to the topic at hand.
You brought business into a discussion on US Gov't policy. Since we were discussing foreign aid (US Gov't policy) and not international business, I left it alone. Once you asked me to address it, I did.
I'm usually not a black or white type person in everyday life. Honest. But right is right and wrong is wrong. And sometimes it really is that simple.
Definition of CRIMINAL
1: relating to, involving, or being a crime <criminal neglect>
2: relating to crime or to the prosecution of suspects in a crime <criminal statistics> <brought criminal action>
3: guilty of crime; also : of or befitting a criminal <a criminal mind>
You said he wasn't a criminal and accused me of making things up. Do you admit he broke the law?
You want to discuss GW Bush's driving in the 1970s, start a new thread. This is my last word on that foolishness in this thread.
We can all see what your doing, and I refuse to participate in it.
it just speaks to your credability... you say these things then you dance around and bull**** your way through being shown how wrong you were...
you dont see any connection between foreign aid and business??? you just choose not to see, because its obvious... why do they seem to give the most aid to the countries that have the most private american interests??? and every one that says NO to american interests and does not allow american business is an enemy...
did you even read the articles i posted? or did you look at tyhe titles and assume you had the gyst of it all???
