War Without End

that was the quote I was trying to think of :D

I keep this listing in my favorites for special occasions in here:
THE GODFATHER (1972) - QUOTES

I think this one is my favorite........

"I have a sentimental weakness for my children and I spoil them, as you can see. They talk when they should be listening."

Have a good one!:s4:

WTF????? BTW, P4, are you ready to retire on your dinars yet,~LOL~. I'm going to get the glue, nice wallpaper, rather expensive though, I figure a million in 5,000 notes might cover one wall in my small bathroom, the one behind the shitter,~LOL~.

Anyone who watches X-Files knows that....

Sarcasm aside, what you don't realize because you didn't follow the election closely (or at all), was that the past election was truly a crapshoot; the turdsandwich/douchebag analogy was quite true. Only difference was, at least Bush had a sense of direction for this country, and has acted to fulfill the goals of his Republican constituents as best he could. Kerry on the other hand probably couldn't decide on which tie to wear each day, let alone where to stand on the war. That indecisiveness would surely have hurt the country more than Bush's continued support. And before you go spouting off numbers about support for Bush, you have to remember no president has been popular in a non-global confrontation, ever.

Why is it so bad that this war could be about oil? It would mean that it's mutually self-serving for both the US and Iraq; we get oil in exchange for removing a genocidal dictator from power. Is that so wrong? I don't think it is, it's just simple service and payment. But then again, where's all this magical oil at?

So there were no WMDs, I'll concede that. But think, instead of just assuming they lied, why not consider that there was bad intel? The CIA and NSA don't get it right every time ya know, they sift through mountain ranges of data daily. And if they lied, then they did so in order to save a country slowly dying in the hands of Saddam. But no, you Bush-haters are so quick to cast your pessimistic eye onto him with your witty sayings and propaganda in ignorance at what you don't comprehend. International politics is an increasingly complex dynamic with many hidden secrets. Things happen usually for a reason beyond our scope of knowledge as mere tiny citizens. But go ahead, slap that bumper sticker on your car so you can be cool.

Gotta love it when foreigners are dissing the US, and its military. For the rest on here that actually *believe* the liberal media and their sensationalized reporting, I think you really need to get a grip.

For those who do live in the US, I want to know how many years have *YOU* served in the military?? How long have *YOU* owned you own home?? How many people does *YOUR* company employ?? What have *YOU* done to make this a better place?? What other countries have you been to?? If you haven't been there and done that, then you really don't have a leg to stand on.

The best you can hope for is that the US doesn't end up in a DEPRESSION the likes of which hasn't been seen since the 1930s, and the only way that you can *DO* anything about it is to write your congress person(s), and vote to make a difference.

At this point, IMHO, none of the presidential candidates are worth knockin in the head. They *ALL* scare the hell out of me. I already am paying 32% in federal taxes....I have no desire to have to pay more. Its bad enough that I have to pay for social security, medicare, food stamps and free housing for 13+ million ILLEGAL ALIENS. This batch of presidential candidates all have these pie-in-the sky programs they want to instate, at a cost of BILLIONS of dollars.... this will have to come from MORE taxes.

Will I vote?? of course, but it will probably be a write in. I sure as hell will not be voting for any incumbents.

You said it. :jointsmile:
It may seem selfish, but it may be the most important issue to me, how much MORE will I have to pay!!! That's why I can't justify NOT voting for McCain! Really it is probably the issue that has the most DIRECT impact on my family, and friends. I guess it is kind of pragmatic, but any other vote would be HELPING the alternative that WILL ABSOLUTELY take more of my money! At least with McCain I have a shot at keeping what I already am ALLOWED to keep, money isn't everything, but you ever try to pay the bills with shiny rocks!:D
