hey douchebag, im a liberal and i dont hate walmart.
so? does that mean im not liberal?
keep on generalizing, you high school dropout.
notice how i can generalize too, because you are conservative you are more likely to have not finished high school.
Politics aside, this is a very difficult problem from a U.S. policy standpoint. Clearly deterrence is not an effective strategy with al Qaeda. But, al Qaeda cannot manufacture a nuclear weapon. Only a State with a sophisticated nuclear weapons program can achieve this. Therefore, al Qaeda could get its hands on a weapon from only a few places: Pakistan, Russia, North Korea, and possibly Iran in the future. There are ways to identify, forensically, the source of a weapon following a blast. So, should the U.S. have a policy that guarantees a State retaliation (massive) if a terrorist group such as AQ used a nuclear weapon from that State to attack the U.S. or its allies? States may be evil, but they're not suicidal. Deterrence may still work to prevent proliferation and ensure these States take every conceivable precaution to secure their inventories.
Of course, deterrence rests on a threat we're serious about carrying out, not a bluff.
all of this petty immature liberal vs. conservative bickering is absolutely pathetic. why pigeon hole yourself? this is why america is so polarized b/c a conservative and a liberal can't sit down for a beer and have a polite poitical conversation. each one thinks the other is an absolute idiot and not worthy of an intelligent debate.
i think we should shove all the ann coulters, hillary clintons, sean hannitys, and al sharptons onto one island and let these partisan, political, narcissistic, self serving, hypocrites argue themselves to death.
god bless the USA and the level headed thinking patriots.

knowitall, do you have any idea why we went into Iraq in the first place?
You use hindsight in your reasoning. Big man. Way to go, Jon Kerry.
Yep, I know why we went into Iraq. I actually wrote two position papers about two months before the war. One outlined the reasons for invasion and the other one made the case for avoiding war. After writing those papers, I concluded that I was against the invasion. I don't formulate opinions about war based on one-sided arguments. Here's an interesting question, did you think of why we should NOT invade Iraq before you put your support behind the war?
It didn't take a genius to determine, before the war, that it was a bad idea.

"Whose life would be on my hands as the commander-in-chief because I, unilaterally, went beyond the international law, went beyond the stated mission, and said we're going to show our macho? We're going into Baghdad. We're going to be an occupying power — America in an Arab land — with no allies at our side. It would have been disastrous."

I didn't go to college and am liberal.
I also like Wal-Mart.
They will be selling our new CD. It will be our best one yet. I hope you all go there and buy extra copies for your friends!!!!!!!!!

H.W. is a much smarter man than his son, but the real shame is that he didn't pull out sooner the night W was conceived.

You'll be saying the same thing about W in 20 years, when Barbie Jr. is running the show.
Face it, Liberals can talk the talk, but they just cannot get shit done. They complain and hide behind false accusations.
Losers, that is what Liberals truly are.
Losers who are mad at the world.

Do you NOT believe H.W. is smarter than W? If you deny that, then I have to call you out as a liar.
I don't consider myself a liberal, but then I don't consider W a conservative. Not in the sense of old-school conservatives that middle America tended to respect & admire. Eisenhower was a good, solid president but these neo-cons (and probably you) would consider him a liberal by today's warped standards.
Bush has done more damage to the conservative movement than you will ever realize.
I didn't leave the Repubican Party, it left me.
Don Henley DID go to college you imposter. As he once said in an interview "I was the college guy" then made reference to the metaphors in some of the lyrics he authored.
J'accuse!!!!
I'm not sure if this has been posted yet, but Fox did the same exact story last year i think. The story i saw had an expert as well, stating how it was "inevitable" that the US would be attacked by a nucleur bomb, with all the idiotic Fox anchors nodding their heads in aggreement. The show i saw however actually had a model missile in the studio just to show the viewers what our impending doom looked like. Are these people serious? We are definately goign to be bombed with a nuclear weapon? Not even it's just a possibility? I don't know about you guys but after watching that i became so afraid that i went out and bought a "W the president" sticker and volunteered for service in Iraq. Talk about propaganda.
If all of you hate Fox News so much, why do you watch it?
All you are doing is making them the highest rated cable news channel of all time. They are raking in the dough because of you.
Do you think they don't realize that they are controversial? Do you think they don't know that brings in the viewers?
Don't you see people like Olbermann trying to copy that exact act to save his fledgling MSNBC?
It is all a game, and you people fall for it all like little puppets.
The fact is some people were arrested recently for trying to buy some material used in making nuclear weapons. Thankfully the sellers were working under cover. Anyone who doesnt think muslim extremists would love to get their hands on nuclear material or any wmd is living in dream land. Or perhaps they are just linked genetically to Neville Chamberlin.

you do realize if america nuked in response to a TEROORIST attack (which is not the fault directly of a nation). They would be ostracized from the global community. Many many countries would go to war against the us if they did such a thing.
That's not necessarily true. They might ostracise the U.S. but would not declare war on the U.S. Undoubtedly, if the U.S. were to use nuclear weapons in a response to a nuclear terrorist strike, it would first make reasonably sure they were bombing the responsible country - even if a government is not "responsible" for a terrorist strike (isn't terrorism grand?). Nuclear bombs are not easy to come by and we could probably establish which government was most complicit in aiding the terrorists.
In the wake of having one of our cities leveled by a nuclear bomb, the international community would mostly be supportive of some sort of massive retaliation against someone. The West (and parts of the East) rely too heavily on the U.S. to let a nuclear attack on her go unpunished in a major way. Our very survival as a nation would be in jeopardy if terrorism went nuclear, and you can bet there would be a major overhaul of the power structure in the Middle East, one way or another.

This post is a breath of fresh air. Bless you, brother!
If terrorists nuked an American city, the U.S. might not use nuclear weapons to retaliate, but would surely take aim at the Middle East in a major way. The response would be something like what the Allies did to Germany in WWII.

Earned it? yea right. Reallocating capital from scum-sucking Republican CEO dirt bags that got it by laying off working people, stealing from their pension, then giving themselves a $220 million good bye kiss is the utmost in morality and justice.
What is IMMORAL is the thought that because you were lucky enough to sell your stock at the right moment after not having done a single thing in your life to contribute to society that you have a right to be "protected".
People like you should burn in hell.
