US/Iraq
choasforages:
ummm, im here cuase alot of things piss me off. ms is a small problem with whats getting ready to go down. i mean i heard someone say, "wow one nuke, big deal, we have thousands", must i remind you of the damage done to hiroshima and nagasakie with a fairly primative atom-bomb?/*can't spell*/, BOOM, there goes the rest of new york, or maybe washington d.c., or whatever major city they wanted to. and you think it would be hard to get a nuke in here? we are FUCKED. and for the u.s. no empire lasts for ever, look at the romans, the most powerful empire in the world at the time, and they fell. so you think the u.s. will last forever, NO. so enjoy it while you can.

The 'american empire' is indeed in it's closing stages. It happens to them all...

to tell the truth, i haven't seen one news article about the US/Iraq thing. nor do i know anyone online or offline talking about it. i guess it's not too important?
anyways, i doubt we will go to war with anyone, americans are cheap. and war is expensive.

Uhm, to elaborate on what news I watch...
I watch none. I barely watch television as is. Now I do read reports off of the news websites and FOX news is a joke.
Examples...
Lightbulb Bombs (Yeah right!)
ACB & BBoM are lies! Pure lies! Although the THB has some real synthesis'.

To be honest I had gained the general impression that you were right leaning but always imagined you to be something like a Libertarian. That is, as far as I can gather from what I know about them (not much), basically right wing but less populist and more individualist than traditional right parties, and placing more importance on personal freedom.
I'm just really surprised at you supporting an institution like the Republican Party and people like Bush, who are a massive reason why big businesses like Microsoft, and all the other giants who are in bed with that party, continue to get away with screwing everyone over.

You are probably more right about me than you think and I'm sorry for the off color attempts at humor at your expense. I personally wish there were ways to take the good things out of each party and create a super-party. And I agree with some of the things in your last post.
Hey we all get on each other's case once in a while. Question is, can we move on (Calum and I have had a few knock down drag outs, then we go have a beer at the pub). But if it were possible I would rather avoid polital discussions (as well as religious discussions even though they can be quite humorous). Problem is, someone always starts one, and no matter how hard I try to stay out of the, I have to put my 6% in...
