My entire argument hinges on the fact that the US needs to look at its interventionalist policies. Your entire argument hangs by the thread that US is the greatest, and should not be violated in any way, shape or form... if it is, the perps. must be fanatical lunatics who just enjoy death... Not once have you attempted to ask why
However, you still can view it under your info pages. My rank says N/A on my page. Is there a reason for that?
The whole "Army" thing is way over thought. Any serious war against the US would not include an "Army", not for a long time, anyway. A true attempt to defeat the US militarily would take long range missle strikes, whether they be nuclear or conventiona. As I said above, the situation would revert to a cold war balance. It doesn't
I think China would read us the riot act and make enough strategic movements that we wouldn't do anything too rash. Do you think that China would put its army at risk for Iran?
What do you think the reaction of the United States be? I think that the US would invade Iran, Pakistan, Afghanistan, and Saudi Arabia.
Entertainment figures are rich because people buy their stuff. If people didn't buy their stuff, they wouldn't be rich. Someone thinks what they do is valuable because they pay for it.
What are the causes for such terrorism in the first place? And saying they just hate the US is not a proper answer. 1. The hateful rhetoric spread by Arab media and education, encouraged and enabled by leaders who would prefer to have their populations fixated on Jews and Americans instead of reforming
Simplifying the tax code would be a huge boost. The current tax code is a disgrace.
I have been getting random crashes to desktop during the game itself in build .90 . I am using a GeForce 2 MX 400 and Windows 98.
I think the DC rep to the House gets to vote on DC issues.
Suggesting we shouldn't wave our flag at the Olympics is ludicrous.
What damage has the prison abuse caused, exactly?
The quiz called me a conservative: You recognize the inefficiency of having the government run the economy. Great! You also seem to think that the government can do a good improving people's personal habits in some areas. This puts you halfway between the Libertarian and Republican positions.
Minnesota has traditionally been a liberal democratic state, but Republicans have done well here recently. I also wouldn't be surprised if Pennsylvania and West Virginia went red.
It has been my position for decades that Europe would unite to become an unmatched, global superpower--in a revival of the old Holy Roman Empire. It has been said that the Holy Roman Empire was neither Holy, nor Roman, nor an Empire. It seems to me that there isn't much enthusiasm by European
I think you underestimate how ignorant people are. Try asking people who are not interested in politics who their US senators and representative are.
The most serious concern is that a highly trained suicide terrorist team could penetrate Superblock or any Energy Department site and construct a crude bomb known as an improvised nuclear device. I don't think you can just whip up a nuke in a couple hours though.... I'm sure there would be a swift respo
Television is never going to be in-depth, that is the nature of the medium.
I also hate how corporations use intentionally misspelled words so they can copyright them.
Why has the American media been so willing not to show photos of flag drapped coffins. The media has shown the pictures. I have seen them on tv a few times. The main reason the photos are not shown is that the military doesn't allow photographs to be taken there in the first place. This is the same American media that last week showed pictures of a dying princess Diana despite being asked by her family not to. Tmk it was on
1. I don't like the deficit, but I don't think we can tax our way out of it. What spending is Kerry going to cut? 2. I didn't agree with this, but I'm sure whatever Kerry comes up with for health care will be more expensive. 3. How has Bush lied about his tax cuts? 4. Where are you going to get international peacekeepers? Draginol had a good article earlier explaining that there isn't a large non-US source of troops that is
Maybe it's time for the US to eat some humble pie, admit it has a problem and needs help. You may be surprised at how quickly France and Germany accept the apology, offer assistance and get troops on the ground. Even if France and Germany offer double the troops they have in Afghanistan (according the the figures above) that's still less than 5,000 troops, which is a drop in the bucket. The US has admitted it needs help. However, it
In theory, campaign contributions are supposed to be given with no expectation of anything being done in return. If this were true, there would be no need for campaign finance reform. However, the tendency is that big contributors exert more influence over candidates. Unlimited contributions tend to marginialize the participation of anyone who doesn't have a large pile of money. There needs to be restrictions of how money is used to (
