About Me
- Standish
- We're supporters of Blackwater USA, the heroic private security company that has lost more than two dozen of its own men while protecting American diplomats, VIPs and others in Iraq, Afghanistan and around the world. We set up this blog shortly after the September 16, 2007 incident in which terrorists attacked an American diplomatic convoy near Baghdad, to provide balance and perspective to the biased and often misleading media coverage and public commentary about Blackwater. This blogger's screen name is in honor of Captain Myles Standish, the private military contractor hired to protect the Pilgrims who sailed aboard the Mayflower in 1620 to settle Plymouth Colony.

Wow I'm surprised Navy SEAL Erik Prince could take Waxman seriously with that Dungeons and Dragons look.
Waxman is infinitely more trustworthy. He's got a track record for honesty and fighting corruption. Prince has the opposite track record.
Waxman.
Waxman is an elected official, responsible to the electorate and accountable every two years. Blackwater are mercenaries that will commit the most vile acts for money and are accountable only to the criminals that employ them.
Wow, a half million a year per mercenary! Way to starve the beast sez Grover Norquist. What a great way to get the Aryan Nation some target practice at taxpayer expense! Cofer Black is so rich we should worship him. The truly free enterprise zone set up in Iraq is perfect for no-bid contracts on a cost-plus basis. It's a money machine! Plus, we get to shoot brown people anytime we want. YaHOOOOOOO!!
Clearly Waxman has more credibility.
Prince is a dyed in the wool Republican operative, *acting* like a non-partisan, describing himself as a "patriot", while actually being more of a war profiteer.
Ick.
-- ARG
waxman, no contest.
Waxman is. What the hell is the point of this asinine post? Are we supposed to decide based on posture and wardrobe?
Hmm, a Congressional committee chair renowned for his tenacity in fighting corruption or a Christianist paramilitary war profiteer goon.
Tough one.
Waxman. He's rarely been accused of running a lawless company while stealing taxpayer money to run a halfassed mercenary shop in Iraq.
So, you guys gonna frag him or what?
The one not responsible for hiring a bunch of thugs who shoot ten-year-old boys in the head?

It's funny how sleezy and nerdy Waxman looks next to Prince.
No doubt, I'd want the person who is actually interested in protecting American values - Rep. Waxman.
And that all his attackers can come up with are attacks on his looks, well . . .

So anyway, which lobbying operation set this blog in motion?
I don't think there's much contest here: Waxman. Prince may or may not be able to hire people to keep State Dept. employees safe--in the short run--in Iraq but he's demonstrated numerous times that he's willing to sacrifice long term safety--of our mission Iraq, of our constitution, of our army, and so--for short term profit and very temporary security. Waxman, on the other hand, thinks long term and generally acts like an adult.
I'll take Waxman. Thanks.
No question about it. Waxman.
Looks like Waxman in a runaway so far. Haven't you guys notified LGF, Confederate Yankee or some of those other wingnut blogs that you've set up a pro Blackwater fakie blog? Next time tell them first and the comments will probably be more to your liking. See, the righties only read the blogs they already know will feed their pro war mania, 'liberals' read 'em all.
I support George W. Bush, who protects me, and all of us, even you leftists scum who do not appreciate it. Appreciate that you will have a Muslimist sticking a gun in your mouth, you beg for mercy, nobody saves you..... you enabled him and his death cult.
"you will have a Muslimist sticking a gun in your mouth"
not sure where to start.
okay, first ignorance with "muslimist"
second, with ignorance that the US spends more on defense than all other countries combined so your fear of "muslimists" taking over the US is simply ridiculous
lastly, I hear some serious homophobia in your fear of another man putting "a gun" in your mouth. maybe if you just gave in to your latent desires, you'd be less fearful and more happy as a person
EIN REICH

SIEG HEIL!!!!!
Waxman.
Next question?
Waxman.
Man these astroturf blogs are annoying. Mostly since they are so obviously fake.
Waxman.
A shameless war profiteer or an elected member of the U.S. House? Hmmm...that's a tough one.
Waxman looks like he outta be in that Grinch movie, a resident of Whoville... LMAO...
Sorry... I am just astounded that Standish allows all the anonymous trolls to post...
