ah. i would write a long and intellegent post to this topic, however it is getting late. so i'll make this short.
1)if women were in higher positions, this wouldn't be happening, period.
First of all, don't get me started on women. Clean my friggin dishes, make me some pie and get your fat asses out from in front of the tv, ladies - the existence of Oprah doesn't mean that any of you now have some kind of intelligence worthy of leadership.
2)Canadians, please get off your high horses. other than a few talented actors/musicians, nothing truly worthy comes from your country.
How about the majority of American energy? How about training grounds for your friggin' army AND navy? Above all, how about the sense of pacifism that Canada has added to the world, probably due to the fact that we can walk down a quiet street in the city and not worry about getting shot, mugged, or raped? Americans are constantly on their high horses - maybe if you start going through life without the idea that "I am invincible" and you'll see a small shade of what it is to be Canadian.
3)yes, america is not perfect. we are only 206 yrs old. what were other countries doing when they were only 200 yrs old? warring most likely. Yes this is the modern world but we're not as experienced as "jolly ole england."
So basically, wage war on every living thing until America is officially 1000 years old... ok, that makes a lick of sense. Age is irrelevant, woman. European countries that were established 1000 years ago are still warring.
4) if there was no green party, gore would have won easily. and the polls are not accurate. we did a study of this in civics. of a population of 50,000+ only a 1,000 would get polled. now, is that accurate? and if a question was oddly worded, the answers would be off. (i'd explain if i had the time)
That's close to being true. And if Gore won, we wouldn't be having this argument because he wouldn't be pointing the missiles at every living thing.
5) i say the US should fix their messes, close up the SoA, and not help another country. if people are going to be ungrateful, then let's not bother. as for the current situation. no bombs, if it comes to war, hand to hand is always best.
Yes, the USA should fix their messes, but lets face it, every war the US has entered in the last century, they were minority players in it. Sure, you can give all that BS about how the world would have been destroyed in WW II, and how good ol' Uncle Sam saved the world. Please, please take note of the fact that American troops were nowhere fucking near to being the majority in that war, and that it was merely a leg up to aid the forces of good (a leg up that was frickin late, too)
6)a friend's response to the playground analogy: the US are not the bullies. rather we are the smart kid that the other's are jealous of. so we get kicked around even if we try to help. (not my op but my friend's)
The USA is one big bully. I merely hope that the people and the dumbassed leader understand this before more tragedies happen and Bush leads the world to death.
flame all u like.
