This is also another interesting point to bring up to those anti-Americans whom hate us for not helping anyone in the world.

Doesn't sound far fetched to me but that is partically because I think Bush is a terrible president.
Not quite. It was going downhill from Clinton's second term on.... all Bush did was let it continue to degrade. Not exactly "on the ball"- but not completely his failure, either. Besides, it wouldn't have mattered.... they got all pissy the *moment* we were engaged into Afganistan, like every other time, they waited until we had our military resources deployed elsewhere. And say what you want about Bush, after 9/11, that invasion was a guarentee.
Thank you for clearing up that it wasn't all Bush's fault. I did find it hard to believe that it would slide that fast...even for him.
My problems with Bush go beyond any invasion. I don't agree a whole lot with his domestic policy at all...not that his foriegn policy is any better though :d
Gotta give credit where credit is due. Not even Bush's brain can hold enough stupid incompetence to do ALL of that. They ran out of space to hold the idiocity.Quote:

There's an old saying in Tennessee — I know it's in Texas, probably in Tennessee — that says, fool me once, shame on — shame on you. Fool me — you can't get fooled again.Quote:
HAHA good point to bring up Fool my once shame on you, fool me twice, shame on me...
I just kinda thought about the same thing when snoop gave up pot. That got a ton of news coverage, even though we knew it was more of a lie than this is.
Celbrity news = Lam-e-o
If you havn't gathered, I am pissed about the lapse in our great media. They get all these freedoms, and they worry more about what will sell thier papers/space than get the news.

Come on. Everyone knows that Renee Zellweger and Kenny Chesney breaking up is a thousand times more important than the prospect of global peace and safety.

one particular story that happened this week that has gained little to no news coverage is north korea abondoning it's nuclear weapons program and agreeing to return to nuclear non-proliferation.
I just read the exact opposite - that North Korea has given the UN and the US the middle finger, and decided to go about their world domination schemes, which include atomic weapons, at the moment.
The same goes for Iran - which has declined the request to stop enriching Uranium for the use in Atomic weapons. Which sucks, you know.
I think this is probably a cover up, Bush and Blair's next target maybe? But i think thats probably a real confidence boost to the Koreans, parting with their defence because a big bully told them too. I'd really like to see the same happen to America, i mean cmon who need 4500 nuclear warheads? :choc:
Supply and demand. We don't demand real news, so they give us what sells.Quote:

More profitable at any rate.Quote:

If so, they learned from the best. Oh, and can someone please explain how the country with the worlds largest WMD stockpiles, not to mention the one that tends to hold up any real progress on non-proliferation, has a right to tell other countries to disarm?Quote:

The U.S. doesn't really need the 'right' to tell anybody anything when they have as much power as they do.
Ah, so might makes right, then?
