Bush presses for economic sanctions

Recommended Posts

Hey egotist, why don't you spare us the rather unsuccessful attempts at sarcasm and instead make your point. Maybe we need to hear from a world-renowned historian, economic expert, and a well-experienced politican such as yourself. After all, you said it yourself that it's us who are ignorant.

Lol, guy cracks me up biggrin.gif

Thus, over half of the U.S. population did not vote for Bush and so are not to blame for his idiotic actions.<span id='postcolor'>

True the public of a nation should not be blamed for the action of their government. But if they blindly follow their government like that they are probably just as bad. But of course I know not EVERYONE is like this. At least I hope so.

Didn't the court just put Bush in office? I watched the whole election but the ending bit didn't really seem democratic. Or maybe it was. I live in a democracy myself and sometimes it seems like a democratic country is not very democratic. Especially when it makes restrictions on certain things if any.

So being a hillbilly is a bad thing? And putting redneck and hillbilly in the same sentence shows your understanding of culture, as they are slangs for two quite different groups of people.

And to Hardliner;

Much like true communsim, true democracy does not exist. Its called humanity- greed, vanity, and our thirst for power will forever prevent this.

hmm what else to make him a redneck?.. ohh yea he talks with that wierd sothern twang.. wait.. no he doesent..

lets see what makes him so dumb..

hmm maby it is his bachelor's degree from Yale.. or maby its his Masters degree of Business Administration from Harvard Business.. or wait maby being an F-102 pilot did it... umm maby making enough money to buy his own baseball team made him dumb...... maby it was becomming the first Texas Governor to be elected to consecutive four-year terms on November 3, 1998, winning 68.6 percent of the vote that turned him stupid..

... mmmm. No. I still think he's quite dumb. And yes, everyone who lives in the mid-American states is a hillbilly with a foul slacked jaw yokel accent. No horse required. Are you one of those folks, yet ! biggrin.gif Nothing to be ashamed of.. After all, I remember a good quote from the Simpsons that precisely describes you people:

*guy and girl and making out in the back of a pick up truck*

Girlfriend: "Cletus, why'd ya have to park so close to ma' parents."

Cletus: "Now now, honey, they's ma' parents too."

Bush could have graduated any school in the world. That doesn't impress me. The mere fact that his daddy was the president could have gotten him anywhere in life.

He's just stupid. I mean look at the guy. Look what he says, look how he says it. Examine his ideas. The guy is a moron.

If I met him in real life I'd say ".. Well hot damn boy, take that shovel and freshen that soil.. Them cotton fields need work"

Then I'd probably slap him once or twice to get those cheeks of his even redder.

Lol, I just love insulting people.. Wobble you should also know that i've been yanking your chain for a while now. lol.. I find human mind very interesting and I take great interest in studying how it responds to different types of stimuli. Just now for example, I have gotten to know you better by examining your rather aggressive response.

... wanna have a beer biggrin.gif ?

There are quite a few famous ones. My favourite must be:

"Teach a child to read and he or her will be able to pass a literacy test."

But I admit,  Dan Quayle is still the unchallenged master in that area.

No, actually not. His father was a very successful businessman. W was mediocre at best.

Yes, and if the terroists had blown up Los Angeles as well, he would be even more popular.

What a trade down from Clinton! The only comfort is that Bush has some at least half-competent advisors. He seems like a nice person (if you overlook his Texas killing spree), but that doesn't make him smart.

Edit: After a search on google with "Bushism" this came up (I wasn't aware that such a term existed, until Wobble pointed it out)

That's soo true,I remember seeing something tv about how hard it was to get in the national guard at that time.But somehow he got in,i wonder.. smile.gif

When i seen some right wing reports about how gore had all these body guards and stuff in vietnam,when he went.But atleast he went.

Bush sr did help bush jr now,no question about it.You can say no he didn't ,but really he got alot of help from his father.Did he buy his degrees ? I don't know,and don't care,if money help him get through college ,good for him.My point is life is going fuc* you all the time,always try to take the easy way out. smile.gif

Please, America has arrived late during every world war. They didn't try to stop Hitler until the Japs attacked Pearl Harbor (spare me the lecture where America sent supplies to Britain. They weren't giving the British anything, merely "lending" it)

Yeah if Japan didn't attack USA Hitler might have or most likey would have won. If Japan atttacked USSR instead the Axis would have won it. USA was like Stalin in 1939, wanted to avoid war. It didn't work out for either of them.

Yeah your right about them "lending it" thats why it was called "Lend Lease" also sent to USSR.

I just want to correct something here because I think it is important to know! Hitler declared war on America and not the other way around!

Besides that, I am realy impressed by the power to survive the British had during WWII. I dont talk about glorious soldiers here and stuff, but it was shaking for the Germans to see how little bombs and rockets could do against England. Everyone always said England is like a cat, it just needs one more hit, then it will be dead. But after bombs and bombs nothing happened, curchill did not give up, in other words: this cat realy realy takes more hits to die than we can ever do"! Germany flew so regularly their bomb-attacks that the people didnt have much time to leave the cellar, except when the weather was so bad that no attacks could be flown. Without this resistance the Americans could not have attacked Germany. When the Germans gave up to conquer England the Brits were able to offer their country as a carrier for american aircrafts.

Ok Albert Schweizer I understand, I know Hitler declared war on America but wouldn't that be because of the alliance with Japan? Hitler made alot of foolish mistakes that cost them, Also in the Battle of Britain some believed that if Germany had kept on bombing the airfields instead of foolishly going after London the RAF would have been smashed anyway, allowing operation Sealion to go ahead.

Ok slightly offtopic here.. I just have an interest in ww2 and know more about that than current things.

Germany didnt have the assests to maintain a beachhead in britain. Sealion was an illusion.

by the way, as i said somewhere before. if the USA wouldnt enter the war whole wurope would be red now. germany wouldnt win the USSR any way.
