-RetweetCCSU Student Newspaper: Bush is More Evil Than Bin Laden

Sat, Sep 22, 2007 at 8:09:05 pm PDT

At Central Connecticut State University’s student newspaper The Recorder, an editorial by staff writer Ryan Yeomans asks: Bush or bin Laden: Who is More Evil?

Take a wild guess which one he picks.

As of late, if you were to bring up the president in a discussion you would find that many Americans disapprove of the decisions he has made. At the same time, Osama bin Laden presents many good arguments against the president and many of his reasons for disapproving of Bush are similar to those of anti-Bush Americans. Would it be wrong to assume that there is some kind of connection between feelings of the American people and those of Osama bin Laden? As I would love to make this connection, I ultimately cannot because of the actions of our president. If I were to say I agree with bin Laden, that would mean that I agree with a terrorist; under the Patriot Act, I could be labeled a potential terrorist and my phone could be tapped, and every move I make could be watched and analyzed.

In finding myself in this predicament, I questioned myself as to who the lesser evil actually is. I ask, “Who has done more damage to the lives of the American people?” Personally, I worry more about the next bad decision Bush is going to make than I worry about a potential Osama bin Laden organized terrorist attack.

One thing I have realized from these videos is that while Osama bin Laden remains free, Americans are slowly becoming bound by the decisions of the president to remove and restrict the rights given to us by our knowledgeable forefathers, without whom we would not be here. I can only hope that Americans will open their eyes and see what is in front of them, in order to prevent things from getting out of hand any further.

I have a friend who looked me right in the eye the other day and told me Bush was responsible for over a million civilian deaths in Iraq. I just shook my head and said "you may want to verify those reports. That equates to over 700 dead PER DAY". She still insisted it was true.

Crazy thing of it is, we aren't using a fraction of our power. ROEs that tie a hand behind our backs, not tagging the bejeebers out of the Iranians coming into Iraq and Afghanistan, our Air Force and Navy mostly waiting on the go orders. I read the other day that some 60 or 70% of our military forces aren't being used. It was in American Thinker, IIRC, so I tend to believe what they say.

While I cannot support bin Laden’s opinion that all Americans should be killed and that Islam is the only way to be saved, it is hard to overlook the statements that he makes about the Bush administration.

bridges (in Minnesota)
the lack of health insurance
children (not sure how they are dangerous but they show up in all campaigns)
asbestos
dirt
global warming

Personally, I worry about people like you having the ability to vote. Bush's decisions since 9/11 have liberated millions. The decisions of osama- if he's actually still alive- have killed countless scores and fanned the flames of war. For if osama had not chosen the path of jihad, the decisions of Bush that worry you, Ryan, would not have been made in the first place.

Instead of a mandatory draft, we need classes in the evil that is daily exercise of three quarters of the world. What a simplistic little idiot. This is the type that think Dick Durbin is a deep thinker, Kerry could actually load and fire a gun, that Health care is free and the universal right of all human beings, that food is free and the universal right of all human beings, and most importantly, if all the good in the world, including his girl friend, were distributed equally, he would still have a car, food, a lap top, a girl friend, and clothes. he would be lucky if he had his nuts.

While I cannot support bin Laden’s opinion that all Americans should be killed and that Islam is the only way to be saved, it is hard to overlook the statements that he makes about the Bush administration.

Really? Hard to overlook all the insightful leftwing drek he spews despite the fact that he also wants to kill ALL AMERICANS?

If someone can come to the conclusion that all Americans should be killed, don'tcha think the rest of their rhetoric might be equally suspect? To the point that it might be a good idea to overlook it entirely? As a starting point for public discourse, you can't try to not rely on murdering terrorists?
Sheesh, that's modern liberals for you, always willing to give voice to evil, whether bin Laden or the little man from Iran.

I saw a raving bearded moonbat at a "Peace" rally on Fox yesterday being interviewed by a Fox repoter. The RBM was ranting about how he had lost all his freedoms because of Bush. This while he was screeching about how he hated Bush and the US.
Then he made a semi-veiled but obvious death threat against the reporter, saying, "I hope you get out of here alive, man."

Charming.

At least one of the roadways near Redhouse is named after this man - Shiekh Gilani.

Some of my earliest posts at LGF confused this man with his father, who died in Beruit Lebanon, in 1962. Coincidentally, the notorious Haj Amin al Husseini also died in Beruit Lebanon (in 1974).

Both were involved in the anti-British coup in Iraq in 1941. (Search Golden Square.) Both fled to Germany, spending the remaining war years there in support of Hiitler. After ww2, Husseini fled to Egypt, and Gilani to Saudi Arabia.

The Sheikh Gilani who established Muslims of the Americas and Jamaat ul-Fukra currently lives in Lahore, Pakistan, I think.

103 AZfederalist  Sat, Sep 22, 2007 9:21:17pm

Wow, where to begin?

First, the little twit can't really name a right that has been suppressed under Bush. Unless he is conversing via phone with a person in a terrorist country. Even then, that doesn't fall under the realm of loss of rights since protection against foreign threats is a power granted to the US government.

Second, the fool doesn't even get the part about rights correct either. He says, "Americans are slowly becoming bound by the decisions of the president to remove and restrict the rights given to us by our knowledgeable forefathers, without whom we would not be here ..." The rights in the constitution were not given to us, they are enumerated as rights that are fundamental and innate to the people. They can only be abrogated, not given.

This, the idiots at Columbia, the school paper at CSU, and Weird Churchill at CU in Boulder (my alma mater) are some of the reasons I stopped giving to the alumni fund years ago. I used to get the alumni paper and read until I hit the word "diverse" or "inclusive" then thow it away. After CU tossed Coach McCartney because he dared express a religious affiliation, I stopped contributing entirely. I wrote the alumni association telling them exactly why I would no longer support the association and received a letter back that said they understood that I and many others "had expressed concerns about Coach McCartney". I wrote them back excoriating them for their poor reading comprehension and never ever considered contributing again.

Glad you pointed that out. Would've said the same thing in one of the other Columbia threads, but kept reading instead.

I did, however, ask three questions in the other thread, but no one answered. Does anyone here know?

Three questions:

1.) Does Columbia receive any fed funding? And I do mean any... like tuition grants, research, etc., etc.

2.) Where is the voice of their older alumni? (Or are even the older alums of the same ilk?)

3.) Have their contributions, donations, endowments (whether by alums or from outsiders) dropped off at all?

When I was in college, Nixon was President and the Vietnam War was winding down. Nixon was impeached. I was not fond of the man and didn't vote for him.

Even with Watergate and Vietnam and all the nuttiness, if someone said "think of someone evil" from that time, this is who I think of.

In case no one corrected me - Nixon resigned before being impeached. It felt like impeachment, though.

Actually, Ryan, I agree. Because when Americans 'truly open their eyes' they'll do what is necessary to 'prevent things from getting out of hand any further'. Like taking a whopping cluebat upside your head. Maybe smack some sense into you.

Bush is worse than Bin Laden? Looks like the Libs are warming up to Bush now! This is a huge step forward for them. So, the comparisons to of Bush being worse than Hilter are being downgraded now to Osama Bin Laden. Bin Laden is a punk amateur compared to Adolph. This is cause for celebration.

Forefathers? Indeed, without them we would not be here, but the young moron even gets the reference wrong. Chinese communists would also not be here without their forefathers. But the U.S. does not depend on an Anglo-German stock that traces its ancestry, as some of us do, to those men meeting in Philadelphia. Rather even the newest American can trace his democratic liberal values to the Founding Fathers. And recognize lazy thinking when he sees it.

Poor guy. Luckily his trampled civil liberties will be restored to their former glory once Hugo Chavez er George Bush steps off the thrown. Of course that wont happen until evil George calls for Marshall law and takes away everyones bong.

Ryan Yeomans, probably a young, hyper-emotional dreamer, (as I once was) makes the same mistake as millions of liberal idiots: the Constitution is somehow above humanity, that it exists in the stars, and that it can magically defend itself. Under Osama bin Laden, or a myriad of others, the Constitution would not even be printed anywhere. Yeomans' blogging would be terminated, and his life terminated as well. Under President George Bush--with whom I have many disagreements--life largely goes on-- under the rights and responsibilities of a Constitution protected by the blood of Patriots.

122 Texas Joel  Sun, Sep 23, 2007 8:04:18am

Which rights have we lost again?
I think it is typical of these kids with pudding in lieu of brains that they can't actually think a right that has been violated before they jump to the plural.

Is the exclusionary rule no longer part of the federal criminal trials?
Has habeus corpus been suspended for civilians in the US?
Which newspaper was shut down by the Army last week?
Which city is under curfew, has gatherings of over ten prohibited?
Voting for Congress not allowed in 06? State government suspended? Weapons confiscated? (Wash DC was before 2001 so they can't blame that on Bush, and we all know Bush couldn't even find NewOrleans on a map- to they can't be talking about that one)
How many people have been arrested for failing to attend church?
How many people have been forced to sign a loyalty oath to stay out of jail?
How many citizens have been examined under torture to further their criminal trials?
How many states have been taxed by the Feds?
These losses of rights are happening so fast I guess I just lost track of them all.

123 415woman  Sun, Sep 23, 2007 8:28:57am

I always love it when the Left claims that freedom of speech has been curtailed. This idiot claims that if he where to agree with Bin Laden, he would be thrown in jail and subject to the Patriot Act due to Evil George Bush and assorted cronies, then goes on to do just that. I guess he in not so scared after all.

Then again, maybe he is just another Brave Liberal, standing up against the forces of evil...

That would be Bush and not Bin Laden since Bush won't kill him. Real courage.

I mean, can any of these people actually name a right they've lost...?

Lolly pops and sunshine...maybe 'healthcare' and 'high paying jobs'...and I thought the formulation was that rights were reserved to the people and powers were provided to the government-its sort of frightening that a collegian would state that rights come from government, but then all we have to do is watch the current debates and it doesn't surprise me.

128 Shay4l  Sun, Sep 23, 2007 1:47:36pm

I wonder if this genius and the one from the Colorado student newspaper can even describe what their life would be like under Bin Laden's version of Sharia.

Gad, how foolish they are.

129 darkpixel  Sun, Sep 23, 2007 6:01:06pm

Never have I been more proud of my alma mater.

Not.

Funny - when I attended (mid 80s) I had two profs who were very liberal. One was an anthropology professor who was totally upfront about his politics. But he respected his students, even right wing nut jobs like me. In fact, I used to sign my papers and exams "Running lackey dog of Yankee Imperialism". The other prof taught Medieval civ. I had no idea where he stood politically... turns out he wasn't just a pinko, he was absolutely vermilion. But I did not find out in class... I saw him on the news carrying a "Kissinger is a war criminal" sign when Kissinger spoke on campus.

The same student paper last year published a 'rape is good for ugly girls' story, and just a week or two ago published a cartoon that implied a man kept a Hispanic teenage girl chained in a closet... and first her to drink his urine... Somehow I don't think the Osama versus Bush story will receive the same amount of coverage in our local media.

And they like Ron Paul... "and you should too"
