If you join the military, you should be expected to go to war. The Vietnam War had more people enlisting every year than were drafted anyway, so now the military is completely voluntary. Why should you join the military if you're opposed to war? What kind of idiot does that make you?
Alright, I'm a student, and I can tell you the REAL problems going on in school. Here it is: the idiots have taken over. No longer are teachers allowed to discipline students as freely as they used to be. I've heard of cases where teachers got in trouble for suspending students! That, my online companions, is downright, grade-A bullshit. Students aren't at school to have fun or enjoy themselves, it's for the learning goddamnit. Everyday I waste at leas
Spain used democracy - good Spain left Iraq - bad Why bad? Because it teaches the terrorists that whenever someone does something to the Spanish, the Spanish are willing to wuss out and leave. That's the mindset of all Europeans - appeasement. It's never worked and it never will, yet the Europeans are only willing to use that method. These people have a law of vendetta people, an eye for an eye sort of unwritten law if you will. IF you nev
Aw man, I wish I could've seen it, was it funny? Hey, Draginol, I was just curious as to how long you guys have been working on the Political Machine. Or is this not the right forum to ask this about? Oy, my grammar goes downhill everyday. A lot of liberals are convinced that this war would be so much better if the French and the Germans were involved, but the thing they forget to mention is that Bush already headed down that path. Saddam
OH, and BulbousHead, Bush didn't have enough hours under his belt to go to Vietnam, AND he was trained on obsolete equipment. He actually requested to be shipped over there. It was Kerry who was hanging with the Commies after he left the military.
I think that when they wrote the 1st Amendment they weren't planning on flag burning, or radio stars who people term 'shock-jocks.' That doesn't mean, however, that we can just ignore the 1st Amendment. That's the beauty of this country, because we can form our own opinions, we can write and say what we feel. Do I enjoy flag burning? No, I find it disrespectful for the thousands of people who have willingly sacrificed themselves for the glory of our na
Ian, Canada is not superior in any way to the US. There economy is worse, and people panhandle on the streets in front of the police station. That's terrible. The reason this country is so great is because we encourage people to innovate and try new things. Hell, that's what >$1 billion dollars in just private grants alone will give you. Canada, along with other countries, don't encourage entrepeneurs like we do, and as such, they are always behind us
If a country doesn't stand up and take action they'll get stepped on by other countries. Our original plan was to send the Jews into Africa, but they pleaded to go to Jerusalem. Why? Because that's where all of the religious sites were. We offered Palestine a fair deal, and they turned it down, only to bitch about it later. Israel has constantly been outmanned, but they've always managed to beat off opponents, and in some cases snag some land too. Why
The problem with Europe is that nobody is willing to take action anymore. Nobody said anything when Hitler was building up arms and very little was done by the Spanish after their bombings. The fact is, is that it doesn't work. The US is all about action and responsibility. In the US, you take responsibility for your actions, whereas in the EU, they try to appease everyone so that they'll just kinda go away. That doesn't work and that never will. The U
