China claims Taiwan as one of it's provinces. Recently, a Philippine warship fired on a fishing boat from Taiwan. The Philippine govt apologized, saying it was 'an accident'. First of all, how do you accidentally fire at another ship? Can't they somehow control their guns? Have the guns gone rogue? And secondly, if Taiwan, a province of China, was in effect attacked, why hasn't China retaliated?

Sounds like one of those who bash Rush as a terminal liar without ever listening to his radio (or watching him when he was on tv) show. He's just a liar. That's it. No examples, just take their word(s) for it... He just IS! Whenever a lib gets into a discussion, and their facts just don't add up (which is usually!), they fall back on their tried-and-true tactic of name-calling. That's when you KNOW they've realized that they have lost the debate. I was surprised Jett didn't include '...pants on fire...' to his post.

Slick Willy did the same thing - used the IRS to go after vocal Republicans - so why is anyone surprised that is has happened again? We should insist that the Attorney-General investigate this - dang, that's never gonna happen. Whatever happened to the the 'checks and balances' I heard so much about when I was in school? Gone

You had me at '...Why did we elect Obama...'.

As preposterous as it may sound, if and when the libs realize that liberalism is a mental disorder, they'll start applying for benefits, citing the Americans With Disabilities Act. When that gets approved (after all, who among us would argue that they AREN'T brain-dead), referring to them as liberals or libtards or any other warped discription will be considered 'hate speech'. It's just a matter of time...

I agree with your first statement but a land invasion against 5 million reservists would be costly. Just bomb the h*ll out of them, put up a blockade and starve them out. They don't have the food or fuel for a protracted fight BUT they have all been brainwashed from birth so there would be no 'talking' to them either. And then they'd hate us even more. Who's the winner here? Kim Jong Un will have saved face (becaue he stood up to the U.S. bully) but lost his country and will be a national hero forever. Well, at least he'd have THAT going for him...

In a street fight, the one who does the talking gets punched in the face first. After being threatened, it's either fight or flight. We've done nothing about the threats. Hmm.. history repeating itself: Iraq, Iran, N. Korea - only when Libya threatened us did we do anything, and THAT turned out to be very effective. China, the most likely candidate to pursuade the DPRK to calm down, is reluctant to do anything because they don't feel threatened. The DPRK knows that China's response would be total annihilation. Whereas, the US's response will be to 'negotiate' and send them more food and fuel, but never return-in-kind. Our allies in the Pacific HAVE to be feeling pretty unsecure. Thanks zero for your leading-from-behindness.

'But Democrats refuse to do anything about crazy people.' Of course not - kindred spirits,

That hole is California, where 'students' can get a High School Certificate, which, in effect, states that the student's body was in the building for four years. The mind could have been somewhere else - the beach, texting in class, watching 'Walking Dead' on the I-phone - but what is MOST important is that the school district continues to get the state funding per student. Learning is coincidental.

How about 'honor killings? They are very popular in some parts of the world.
