I think you have the media placed in the wrong party. They have done nothing but decimated the Republican Party for many years. They also are no friend to the military. They have bashed, lied and reported slant or 1/2 truths for years in reporting about the war. Thank God for the Blogs that has filtered their bogus reporting and reported the truth has the public finally seen what was happening. This process has been done with the MSM and our elected officials as well. I have never been so involved with communications to our reps, as I have recently. As far as our Bill of Rights are concerned, the first 10 amentments, I believe, were based on English law. I found that out while researching the second amendment, "right to bear armes". of which much has been written of late. The US Supreme Court is currently ruling on a portion of this law presently <BR/>I have been to your main Island many times. In fact. When I was a youngster,,,I went through Jungle Survival there,out in the wilds, dropped by Helicopters and left, only to be found by "Negritos" as part of an exercise. I have also spent many nights in Angeles City. .....I ramble....stay well...Taplinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00161842191574184492noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2446897466778143968.post-78968233623881539802007-12-30T10:55:00.000-05:002007-12-30T10:55:00.000-05:00dd2, Something that will not happen is a Fred and...dd2, Something that will not happen is a Fred and McCain Ticket.

I've gone over a couple of your posts here and I can feel your enthusiasm for Fred Thompson.<BR/><BR/>I am following the US elections too from long distance here in the Philippines, a country you mentioned you visited. I have also done several posts regarding Romney, Giuliani, Huckabee, Obama, and Hillary between October and November, i think.<BR/><BR/>Thompson is largely ignored by the media, or should I say the Republican controlled media(?), but you are right about his adherence to the Constitution. Unfortunately, he lacks charisma, the quality that will excite and inspire people. He's being a left of center conservative is another reason for his uncharacteristic absence from R-MSM.<BR/><BR/>I believe he should come out strongly and really kick-ass as one of the commenters here mentioned. He should especially watch developments in Pakistan and come out fiercely against any possible complicity of the US in Bhutto's death. Invoking the constitution and American Ideals as embodied therein is noble, but it must be applied to real lives and real events. Also, the Bill of Rights applies to all people, not just Americans. If we allow torture, then we are just the same as the terrorists we detest.<BR/><BR/>I've said enough, thanks!

I also look at his firmness on no torture. As it stands now. If we talk rough to a prisoner...Is that torture. An enemy who knows no bounds. They already thank God when captured by an American vs. some other troops or people from some other Middle Eastern country. So, I guess our interragations are not that bad. Do not get me wrong, I am not open to torture, but There are times when I think every option should be open.
