As many people have said, they don't work for us... The general population is too stupid to see that voting democrat or republican leads to a party-run presidency. Whatever the party wants, the president does. and whatever the people funding the government wants, they get. Once we all realize that we need to stop this 2 party system (which is probably exfuckingstremely difficult) we might have a chance at expressing our views. Andrew Jackson started the spoil system (the system in which the people that supported him get high positions in office and don't have to do jack shit) and it's been going on ever since... Then again, surrounding yourself with people against you causes nothing to be completed. Now that we're in Iraq, we have to stay until it's a stable country. If any of you know what happened in Africa (and IS happening in Africa)... the British colonized Africa and then pulled out... Civil war ensued. In hindsight (I didn't have an opinion on the war - i was too young) our country should have let these countries follow our example when our economy and status towered over theirs. Rule by force always leads to revenge. I have no opinion on Bush, because I don't know the man... His public speaking skills don't seem too fabulous, and somehow this makes him dumb? Harvard and Yale degrees are two things I'd like to know if any Fish Tanker hold (and don't give me shit about his dad paying his way in, I've heard it all). Mispronunciation of a few words happens to all of us. I haven't seen many people be judged because of a few of them. Ah yes... lastly I'd like to talk about why we went into Iraq... some people say oil... some people say he truly thought he could stop the tyrannical government... I'm not saying that I agree with this argument... but why the fuck not?: Bush could have gone to war with Saddam because Saddam made an assassination attempt on George HW Bush. Maybe our president wanted to avenge his father and show him what he was made of? Edited Thu Nov 23 2006, 05:37AM |
