The Dixie Chicks.....

Post by C Dixon »

debacle and debate on this forum and the world; got me to thinking.

I believe the following to be true:

1. Consevatives are downing her. (Yes, I am one of them)

2. Liberals are defending her.

3. Conservatives love GWB.

4. Liberals hate GWB.

5. Anything GWB does liverals find fault with.

6. Anything Bill Clinton does, conservatives find fault with.

6. When Bill Clinton "lied" to the American ppl, liberals defended him saying "his private life is none of our business".

7. While conservatives raked him over the coals.

8. When GWB lead the war into and in Iraq the conservatives were with him 1000%.

9. Liberals raked him over the coals for it.

10. When Bill Clinton bombed Iraq to divert attention from his impeachment hearings, the liberals were stone silent.

Finally,

11. Romans (KJV) 1:29 says debating is wicked. (The KJV version was translated by conservatives.)

When the liberals wrote the NKJV they removed the word "debate" from that text.

It is little wonder there have always been wars and wars and rumors of wars. May Jesus help us in the future with more and more nations developing nuclear (noo ku ler ala GWB Image) bombs, I suspect the "war of all wars" is nearer than any of us realize.

Plese consider accepting Jesus as your personal savior, before it is too late dear friends,

Hijacking this topic while it's still open.

Carl - The 'liberal' NKJV has replaced "debate" with "strife." The obsolete definition of debate is strife or conflict. As I understand it, they removed the word, not the meaning.

"And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a debased mind, to do those things which are not fitting; 29 being filled with all unrighteousness, *sexual immorality, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, STRIFE, deceit, evil-mindedness; they are whisperers, 30 backbiters, haters of God, violent, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, 31 undiscerning, untrustworthy, unloving, *unforgiving, unmerciful; 32 who, knowing the righteous judgment of God, that those who practice such things are deserving of death, not only do the same but also approve of those who practice them."<FONT SIZE=1 COLOR="#8e236b"><p align=CENTER>[This message was edited by Chris Walke on 04 October 2003 at 07:46 AM.]</p></FONT><FONT SIZE=1 COLOR="#8e236b"><p align=CENTER>[This message was edited by Chris Walke on 04 October 2003 at 07:51 AM.]</p></FONT>

Sorry guys, it's still a bogus war, concieved in Texas before the 2000 elections, as was the glorious Patriot Act (among other things an end run around the Constitution and Freedom of Information Act). W is a daddy's boy and wants to make his daddy proud. And of course, there's a lot of oil there and a lot of money to be made in wartime by Bush/Cheney oil and defense buddies (no bid contracts), just not by the rest of us.
All of the lies and excuses that W came up with to invade Iraq have been exposed, no WMD's, no threat to the US, no involvement in 911, just a tin-horn army and dictator that we helped install in the '80's. And now we're supposed to shell out $100 billion to fix what we broke, to rebuild THEIR army? While millions in our own country have no health insurance? While our states and fed budgets are broke now and for years?

Bush knew about the 911 plot, officials like Ashcroft were warned to stay off airplanes, yet were was OUR warning? And why wasn't the Air Force scrambled to intercept the hijacked planes? Why were wealthy Saudis and Bin Laden relatives escorted to their private jets and allowed to leave our country? Too many questions unanswered, no wonder Bush didn't want a 911 inquiry. He exploited 911 to justify his invasion of Iraq. Even though the hijackers were almost all Saudis, but the Bushes and the Carlyle Group have business ties with their government, who play both sides of the fence.

Your blind trust in W is very disappointing. Your belief in the Rapture may hasten our demise.

Oh yeah, music...

Thanks, Drew, for summarizing exactly what I feel about the mess GWB has created.

This war is a criminal act, in my view.

Natalie may not be a politician, but she just called it as she saw it - the same way I do.

I pray that not one more American life is needlessy lost in the name of capitalism.

I apologise, b0b - this doesn't belong on this Forum, but I had to reply.

Carl,

You started this thread, and hijacked it yourself with your conservative=liberal rant.

"Strife"? You ARE blind. Your conservative heros have pitted us against the world, when only two years ago it joined with us in mourning.

We can all watch Crossfire, or listen to Rush Limbaugh, and many more propaganda outlets. Please lets stick to music on the forum. Thanks. Image

Let me tell you all about my new 16 track workstation..

from center

8 fader tracks to the left
8 fader tracks to the right

The only way I can have a total 16 track solution is for all the 16 tracks to come together.Yes..you are right..I will end up with a Stereo Left and Right Pair..
each one by themselves useless without the other.

what a coincidence..

Our blind trust in W??? Use common sense!
From my vantage point, it seems that your the one believing the propaganda the radical leftists are spewing out! I'm not ruling out your conspiracy theory, but I certainly see no evidence to support it. Even if what your saying is true, I think going to
war for oil is better than killing innocent people
as a diversion from a sex scandle. Was that the time they accidentally bombed the chinese embasy or the time they bombed the aspirin factory?? Image -Derek

Since nothing in this topic is about the Dixie Chicks music, I'm closing it.

This Forum is not for political and/or religious discussions. There are other places on the Internet where such topics are welcome. We choose not to divide the steel community along those lines on this site.
