Dear America... (very off-topic) (was forum=10)Follow

Thanks admins.

I just hope all the Bush naysayers (not limited to these forums) made sure to pick up the ballet and vote for the "other guy".

Choosing not to vote is a vote for the winner really and if you didnt vote you have nobody to blame but yourself if you dont like him.

Jesus how many people like that have I encountered? Everyone ******* about Bush but when asked if they voted, "Hell no, i didnt vote."

Well, ********* you just elected the president then.

unless of course your state's votes were for the "other guy", then it really dont matter if you voted.... but i usually just leave that bit out, especially since my state, and thusly all the people i meet, voted for Bush in the first place.

So you are saying people who are against bush should learn Ballet?

A comma is your friend.

Show me your bewbs?

Voila! Wonder no more.

Honestly, if you want it rate-bombed, it's much quicker to do it yourself.

It was either that or install large mallets over each one a la whack-a-mole.

Haven't had many cutscenes with President Karst yet, have you?

Uhm...your point? Still doesn't give America the right to do so.

I know enough atheisits to trust any one of them over someone who blindly follows a dogma that they hippocritically use to exclude when "into God's Kingdom, everyone is welcome".

It's just as insane to state I believe in God as it is to state I don't believe in God. You can prove neither. BUT in my experience the people I don't wish to send off to get neutered and never reproduce have been aetheists moreso than religious zealots who said I was going to hell for not letting their loving God into my heart.

An atheist doesn't trust in a faith because he has no faith. They usually trust in reason and logic and personally, I'd rather have someone who is reasonable and logical and believes in themself more than they do in deity that will not help with petty human matters.

killing social welfare programs because they only increase the debt burden of american taxpayers; raise taxes in order to pay down the national debt and save on increasing interest; not caring that there will be some people that barely survive on the way things work now, that would be unable to live under these changes.

Your seeings ghosts where no one has died. If you can see the hypothetical problems you just outlined, I'm sure a genious could also see them. And overcome them through the mental prowess they would have being so damn smart. Along with being surrouned by the smartest men and women in the world. I realize having an IQ of over 200 (which should be the bare minimum if your in charge of a superpower nowadays) doesn't make you a superhero, but it certainly ******* helps.

I also realize this will never happen. Someone that smart is not so easily controlled. Perhaps if we promoted a healthy interest in the way our world runs on a global scale the way we do in game where people kick a ball back and forth (I know, I know, they do it really well) things would start to look up.

But I'm a pessimist so I wait for it all to come crashing down.

Of course Americans are responsible for their President. The President is America to most people, remember that when you have an election next time. The President speaks for America, when people watching the news overseas see a story about America doing something they see dingus and maybe wingus or ricus. Never Cheney though, what does he actually do apart from shot people.

I hate GW, but realise that most American's thankfully aren't like him. Most American people just want a good job, loving family, a home and other ordinary stuff. To demonise a people for the actions of one is wrong, but then that is the way the world works.

To the person who said you have the most wealth people, wrong it would either be Saudi Arbia or Bahrain, those countries have more millionaires than anywhere else in the world. And congrats on making role models out of vapid, ignorant sticks, that don't do anything worthwile but act/sing or party badly.

The US supported him during the Iran-Iraq war, because at the time it was a choice between the lesser of two evils. We did not support him before or afterwards. Saddam was aligned with the soviets and against isreal for decades before the Iran-Iraq war; and we had that little invasion of Kuwait problem with saddam after the Iran-Iraq war.

It is unfortunate that we had to choose between the lesser of two evil in a region, but a pro american dictator was a better choice than a pro soviet dictatorship. The US always tried to push allied dictators towards better human rights policies and more freedom but this was greatly limited to not interfering with the alliance. The choice between the safety and freedom of the the world versus the safety and freedom of one country, has to be for the greater good, despite the fact that it means supporting a lesser evil for the duration. Remember that all the allies support Stalin and the Soviets against Hitler, and that was major support giving him money supplies and even technology. We knew that the soviets were going to be problem in the long run, but the goal of protecting the world from the ***** was more important. History is full of tough choices like this and you cannot attack these choices out of context with the greater evil we avoided with that support.

You gotta be kidding me. How many idiots in the world realize that inaction is not a crime? And Saudi Arabia and Bahrain do not have that many millionaires. Hell, even Russia has more millionaires than those countries. The United States alone has 12 million millionaires, which is exactly how many people Saudi Arabia has.
