OT Interesting remark.
--
"The danger to America is not George W Bush, but a citizenry capable of entrusting a man like him with the presidency. It will be easier to limit and undo the follies of a George W Bush presidency than to restore the necessary common sense and good judgment to an electorate willing to have such a man for their president. The problem is much deeper and far more serious than Mr. George W Bush, who is a mere symptom of what ails us. Blaming the prince of the fools should not blind anyone to the vast confederacy of fools that made him their prince. The republic can survive a George W Bush. It is less likely to survive a multitude of fools such as those who made him their president." -- Author Unknown |

BTW now the war in Afghanistan is coming to a close (ie another country the USA has completely f***d up) I see the new war is coming on nicely. ie Korea. All we need now is a Tonkin incident to kick things off. Then a lot more American boys can go off to die. But that won't matter. You're rich arms manufacturers can get even richer. And the bankers. Got to keep the perpetual war going. (As1984) I thought it was going to be Venezuela. |

... Palin. That's what worries the rest of the world. You're speaking for the rest of the world now too? BTW now the war in Afghanistan is coming to a close (ie another country the USA has completely f***d up) Afghanistan has been a pit of strife as long as it has existed, ask Alexander the Great, or the former British Empire, or the former Soviet Union. To depict it as a place the USA ****ed up (we're all big kids here, you can spell it out) is really reaching. America is just the latest actor on that sad stage. Then a lot more American boys can go off to die. But that won't matter. You're rich arms manufacturers can get even richer. Your own nation is the one of the world's leading arms exporters, being edged out of fourth place by France in the past decade. And in case you haven't noticed, your boys are dying in Afghanistan too. |

What made Bush think he could do any better than the might of the USSR situated right next door? That is where he is deranged. What made the USA help out the Mujahadeen back in the 80's? Yes that is the sad bit. Thanks to B-liar, now conning Amercans out of money with lecture tours & worth millions. |

capable of entrusting a man like him with the presidency. It will be easier to limit and undo the follies of a Barack HUSSEIN presidency than to restore the necessary common sense and good judgment to an electorate willing to have such a man for their president. The problem is much deeper and far more serious than Imam HUSSEIN, who is a mere symptom of what ails us. Blaming the prince of the fools should not blind anyone to the vast confederacy of fools that made him their prince. The republic can survive a HUSSEIN.
