Are you stupid? I have used that site before for MY own arguements. LOL I have it in my favorites list so I can moniter it. Euro, you get more humorous by the day.
Euro, America does WHAT it wants WHEN it wants when it has to do with our security. Grow up and understand this concept, it may not be politically correct, oh boo hoo, but it is what must be done.
Also Euro what do you want us to do? Submit to terrorist's demands? Not stand and fight? Boy Im glad your not my leader if you think a war on terrorism is unwinnable. "Oh crap, theres no way my most powerful country in the world can win against a few thousand terrorists, we should surrender/give in!"
No, thats a cowards way out. Forget about the he said/she said crap of the past. The time is now, even with your logic about not being able to win this war, I would still die trying, becuase I know my death buys YOU time to be safe.
All death is certian, but I want the time before YOUR death to be happy.
The terrorists are fighting a losing war, read about soldiers, read about military experts, read about terrorism experts, talk to soldiers. I do, and what I keep hearing is the terrorist's tactics are starting to change, they are begining to actually want to fight another day. They are starting to become unpoplar in many countries that use to support them. Their men are being captured or killed at very high rates. For them its more pychological now then ever before. The only way they were ever able to win was to inflict enough deaths upon American soldiers to cause people like Euro in America to pack up their balls and leave the war zone. Euro, its more evident now that we are staying the course, the terrorist's tactics have failed, which is why they now are shifting their attention on the Iraqi people themselfs, trying to spark a civil war.
Things have calmed down, even due to the hundreds of deaths resulting in an all most civil war. The next few days are crucial for the future of Iraq.
Euro this could probably be the 8th time I have said this and the first time this year, I DO NOT SUPPORT ALL OF BUSH'S policies. Get that into your bais liberal, ill-informed head.
Sorry I don't moniter every post you make to see if you have used it... maybe I should place harrassment charges on you... since you seem to do that to me..
For one America does what it wants not because of security you moron but because it suits the corporate powers to make money. Find me one war that doesn't in some way have to do with gaining money... the gula.
The terrorists cannot be defeated. you have been conned. They probably have more recruits yearly then the US Army does. Plus they obviously can use a $12 bomb to blow up a million dollar tank. But to you, the wars going fine... If people are dying, their tactics have not failed and we are losing. 4 years in and the killing... i'm sorry... the liberating continues. Mission acomplished I assume.
I'm glad YOUR NOT leader if you think you can win. Even Robert E. Lee, a great man, knew when defeat was inevitable. Terrorism is undefeatable until you can kill human emotions.. oh trust me, their trying. Your blinder then a bat without its radar. You think that because some legislation has nice names, it must mean its helping us.
Patriot Act = puts down civil liberties.
Healthy Forests Initiative = Cutting down trees to "save" them.
Clear Skies Initiative = Says higher amounts of pollution is OK.
Don't believe me... read them for yourself.
You know what? Take it from someone more knowledgable then you and I:
Yes it's old, but still holds true.

WHEN BUSH TOOK OVER as president I used to crack jokes about what insane policy he would attempt to enact next. My jokes were ridiculously far-fetched! For example, "I bet Bush will pass off a super huge tax cut for the rich by saying he's endorsing a tax cut for American families." Ha ha! That one was funny! Then there was, "Because of the California wildfires, I bet Bush says that to save forests we have to cut them down!" That one got a lot of laughs too. But the humdinger was, "Watch Bush say that Iraq has nuclear weapons and use that as an excuse to invade Iraq for its oil!" The absurdity of that one killed people, until, as it turns out, every ludicrous joke I made came true! Feeling horrified that my 'prediction jokes' were somehow singularly responsible for jinxing America and the world I quit making jokes. After convincing myself that I had not jinxed anything, wasn't responsible for every horrible act committed by the Bush Regime, I began thinking, "How is Bush hoodwinking the public into buying obvious bullshiz that I was joking about only months ago?" After some contemplation I've come to a few conclusions.
The Bush Regime assigns friendly names to policies that have very unfriendly results for the USA and the world. Their masterful use of Orwellian 'doublespeak' lets them put a benevolent, positive, upbeat spin on policies that are anything but. They don't call cutting down the forest to 'save' it "Excuse To Let Massive International Logging Conglomerates Cut Down Endangered Forests Act". No, no. That would be too reality based (sort of like the show COPS!). Instead, they name it something happy, like Healthy Forests Initiative. That doesn't sound too destructive, right? Hell, put that way I want to be the first guy to say "TIMBER!" Cut down those pesky trees because I love camping! How about the Clear Skies Initiative? What could be wrong with clear skies? Well, nothing, except that clean air and clear skies aren't what this piece of legislation is about. Clear Skies makes higher levels of pollution okay, including mercury and greenhouse gases! Maybe I've spent too much time playing Reality-Land, but allowing more pollution is not going to keep our air clean and breathable.
And the Bush Regime didn't call the invasion of Iraq "Operation Line The Pockets Of Our Buddies At Every Weapons Manufacturer And Every Multi-National Corporation Who Gave Money To The Bush Campaign (Including wang Cheney's Company Who Pays Cheney To This Very Day)". No, no! First they scare the fark out of us with endless references to Saddam "Insane" and his non-existent WMDs, and then they call the invasion which violated International and US Constitutional Law "Operation Iraqi Freedom”. Red, White, and Brainwashed Americans hear this misinformation repeated day after day, month after month, and think, "I want safety! If you can give me safety AND set some oppressed people free, I'm for it! If Saddam is gonna nuke our ass, nuke 'em first! Besides, doesn't that oil under their sand belong to us anyway?"
Think my explanations and evaluations are too simple? I thought so too until my outrageous jokes started coming true! This revelation led me to think, "Are the people of the USA actually voting for what they believe in?" So, I did some research and what I found is that a majority of US citizens believe in progressive, liberal principles! Huh? It's true... public opinion polls show that a whopping 86% of Americans believe that there needs to be stricter laws and regulations to protect the environment; 77% think it is more important to maintain government services such as Medicare, Social Security and Medicaid than to cut taxes; 72% of Americans favor stricter laws related to the control of handguns; 63% of Americans favor affirmative action programs designed to help blacks, women, and other minorities get better jobs and education; 62% don't think Roe v. Wade should be overturned by the Supreme Court; and 62% would prefer a universal health insurance program run by the government and financed by taxpayers
So we've got a population that wants, by almost a two-thirds majority or more, clean air, land, and water; believes in a woman's right to choose; doesn't want tax cuts if they will hurt Medicare, Medicaid, and Social Security, and a Regime that wants to pollute like crazy, tell women what they can and can't do with their bodies, and cut or end programs like Social Security, Federal Student Loans, and Affirmative Action while running up a huge deficit because of tax cuts for rich people! Is anyone else feeling like their head is going to explode?
If this is the case, why are so many right-wing politicians holding public office and defining what American culture is when a majority of US citizens support progressive, liberal, left-wing values? I hate to say it because it's the answer no one wants to hear, but we have to pay less attention to the MARKETING that these right-wing mother, father, brother, and sister farkers are inundating us with, and more attention to their PRODUCT, which is what their ideas and schemes are actually doing! If a couple hundred more people had done this in the first place this comp wouldn't exist, because it would have been much harder for these farkers to steal the election in the first place! It's up to YOU to know who actually supports the ideas YOU support instead of believing misleading but effective right-wing advertising campaigns that would make any corporation drool (think how many pairs of sneakers they could sell if their ads were half as effective!). You don't have to become a political junkie or stop doing the things you enjoy... just go ever-so-slightly out of your way once in a while to find out what is going on, ideally from a non-mainstream US media source. There's a different side to the story only a few clicks away, starting at the web sites of two British newspapers that are famous for including facts that US papers somehow fail to report. Check out The Guardian & The Independent at www.guardian.co.uk and www.independent.co.uk. And then you need to talk to people about this stuff and get involved!
Want news programs you can listen to? Democracy NOW! (www.democracynow.org) and Flash Points (www.flashpoints.net) are two of the best news programs in the world—period! Good print sites are
www.commondreams.org, www.znet.org, www.undergroundactionalliance.org, and www.alternet.org.
I want to leave you with the following thoughts... Is there a major difference between the mainstream American left and right wing parties? In my opinion, regarding a few important issues, such as a woman's right to choose, yes; but overall, no. Is removing George Bush the solution to all of our problems? No, BUT IT IS A FIRST STEP, AND WE CAN'T AFFORD TO STUMBLE!!! Four more years of a Bush Regime that does not face the constraint of a re-election contest means that those scum bags will do every evil and farked up thing I can think to make a joke about, including stacking the Supreme Court with reactionary, back-sliding, uber-conservatives who don't think you have a right to anything (and abortion rights will be first on their list), re-instating the draft (the legislation has already been introduced!!!), invading North Korea and Iran, even MORE tax cuts for the rich, and the end of all important environmental regulation and social programs. Furthermore, I don't know if you ever travel outside of the USA, but I do, and I'm getting tired of hearing that the man in the White House is a joke and a lunatic.

Get that into your bais liberal, ill-informed head.
BTW, I'm not ill-informed, you are because you haven't read these acts yourself, you take news from other people and don't do your OWN research. AND Your also biased so don't farking call me it so long as you are also. Fool.
ADDITION:
3-5-06Also, As I would like to point out again. the downing Street Memo shows how illegal the war is. That the facts and intelligence was being fixed around the policy. There have been many websites made about it, the memo is there for you to read, you just need to take that extra step and actually read it. The governments of the US and UK have said that its genuine but have not released further information as to what high-level UK Government meeting it was talking about. I urge every patriot to read it.
I forgot what president said this (I will look.) but:
"Every patriot must be ready to stand up and fight against his own government."
I believe theodore roosevelt said it but don't take my word on this.
BTW: I'm not liberal, I'm also not republican, I'm moderate. I'm sorry loving peace and thinking is what you and bush hate...
