    So, Hong Kong is about to become a ****show.

      A bit earlier than I expected. Thought the Chicoms would wait for the generation that was alive at the handover to die off first before REALLY taking over.

        One of the things I miss about the threads no longer being locked after 1,000 posts is the rotation of thread names. Time for a 6.0 version of this thread, no?

            The most hilarious thing I've heard about us going to war again is the blaming of Obama for not addressing the ISIL threat sooner. Like that really was going to make any bit of difference or like this war is going to do anything.

            I cite Maliki and Karzai as my evidence. Something the GOP fails to do.

              I was at my dentist the other day, and he expressed an interesting opinion regarding terrorists and our 2nd Amendment rights.

              He was talking about ISIS, and how they had started taking over cities and brutalizing the populace in each one as they went. He said, "if they started in city x and I lived nearby in city y, and we heard about what they were doing, all of us in the neighborhood would be armed and waiting for them by the time they reached our city limits."

              He went on, "Imagine if a group from ISIS started out in [pick any city neighborhood with violent crime]. They would be lucky if any of them made it to the city limits."

                  There have been allegations that Obama is not a regular attendee at the daily intelligence briefings. If he's not paying attention to the written reports, then there may be something to the "dropped the ball" allegations.

                    "local city winds up with all of their heads on pikes as they tried to stand up to brutal terrorist group as they were hopelessly out gunned. More at 10 pm"

                    Or maybe they could lead with, "Local militia brings AR-15s to fight terrorist group armed with AK-47s and 50-cal machine guns mounted on trucks. How many wound up being beheaded? Find out at 10"

                    Or how about "Local group of armed men who have never pointed a gun at another human being winds up facing off with a group of war-hardened, trained terrorists. See the comically lopsided results at 10".

                                In one breath Bush is "the worst president ever (with apologies to the giant from Plains)" in the next he sets the standard against which you favorably compare General der Panzertruppe von Manteuffel (from Chicago). Wish you'd make up your mind.
