Intrestingly enough, I was just discussing this with a few of my friends today.
Anyways, I haven't much to say to that aspect, due to the fact that I know for a fact I will be voting this year...I just won't be voting for prez. Let the country decide who will dig them their grave: Dubya or Kerry. Both will more than likely fuck us over...but just in their own unique way. So, as the Grim Reaper said, "Spin the wheel and let fate decide how you will die"
Also, that whole "No right to complain because you haven't made a flash" bit is just utter crap. I mean, I don't have to know flash to know when someone had put some effort into something to try to make something decent. I try to be a fair reviewer, giving people the benefit of the doubt if they at least show that they at least gave more than two shits about their work. However, if you post something that was a waste of my time, and I let you know. heh heh...I wish some of them would have stayed on my list, I have some really funny ones that I've made..but they go once it gets blammed. *sighs* Oh well.
Anyways, that's my short, sweet, and to the point view on things.
Key discussion topics:
1) Was the Vietnam War justified? Why or why not?
2) Will we ever regret our war with the Taliban?
To begin, i don't like war. No one really does that's for damn sure, but still I don't like it. But a lot of stuff is necessary, even war. I feel the war at Vietnam had a just cause, but we had no reason to be there. It's too late now to say why cause there is no reason to, we lost they won: shows over. Thru the whole thing we only delayed the inevitable: but the problem was that we wasted lives there which isn't the best thing. Well, things worked out for us in the end didn't it. They don't hold too many gruges and i think we started trading with them (i'm not a well informed person). So it could have been like that if we didn't go over there but we were just paranoid on the spread of Communism. Oh well i wasn't born yet, so it didn't really affect me too much although i still say it was useless. Well moving on about 40 years, we have a new enemy at our hands: The Taliban. They are using some great taticts, seriously. Crashing a plane at the Pentagon, disabliling us for a few weeks. I am not condoning their actions, hell no. The Taliban will get theirs in this life or the next. I'm just looking at it at a stragitic point of view. The question is, will we regret it. I can't actually tell wheter we will or not. That is too soon to tell. But i can tell you that we needed something like this to happen. Before, most people hated our government, (i still do just to let you know, i just can't say to anyone or else i will get a ass beating i may be 6'6" 230 lbs. but there are limits) and now i have seen those people waving their American flags in their cars and their yards. This is the largest amount of patrioism i have seen in a long time. And boy was i wrong about ol' W. He sure proved that he could handle it. AND HE STILL GOES OUT INTO THE PUBLIC. Wow i tip my hat to him man, Even though he is a easy target and may actually get killed. Well to wrap things up i can't wait to see who will win this battle. I sure as hell hope it is us, mainly cause even though it is violated on a daily basis, i like my freedoms. Well i am done now, go back to CNN for the up to the minute bombings while i go wait here to get the first attack from the Taliban to begin, since I am in a city that would be a major target to hit for the Taliban.
