dont be dumb

losing 485 soldiers is not bad enough to even phase the decision making process of politicians

trust me, they take into consideration that soldiers will be lost. 485, wow. we're just getting raped over there, its a nightmare. sure I feel bad that anyone died but do you think those soldiers didnt know either? there wasn't a draft, they signed up for the military, they were ready for death. atleast I would hope so, thats what signing up for the military entails. Im sure there is a piece of paper you sign somewhere saying im ready to die uncle sam.

also i would hope you know enough about politicians to see that "lying" about the WMDs to go over to iraq IS THEIR FUCKING JOB. POLITICANS LIE, THEY ARE PAID TO DO IT FOR CHRIST'S SAKE. IT WASNT ONE MAN'S DECISION EITHER, JESUS. Do you understand that all together there are 88,000 different governments all existing under the national government. millions of politicians, millions, not one, millions. instead of saying bush from now on, say "US government"

seriously quit acting like we have had a great crime committed to us by the government for "lying" about WMD's. they lie because it is the best course of action to undertake, the alternatives would have been worse. they lie because it is the most effective solution to a harmful problem. where do you fucks get off thinking that somehow they will personally profit from this? they act out of the country's best interest that is what they were elected to do, not look out for the world's interest or making sure that every american is happy. do you think thats possible, to make 1 american happy you make another sad, they weigh all this out when they make decisions.

there is no debate about what form of government is the most successful. Democratic capitalist societies are dominant it is a well known fact by every country (including communist countries, they know it, they work towards it, it is a time consuming process that cant be changed instantly) I assure you, the US is the government that the world models itself after, not because we are nice guys but because we are rich. I assure you, our politicians know what they are doing, and they are not required to publicize their actions, for it would hinder their work.

When you call a plumber to fix your toilet, you do it based on the assumption that he knows how. The same works with a politician. You figure, well if the plumber took some kind of training how fucking hard could it be, what plumber can actually call himself a plumber if he doesnt know how to plumb! Well, when a politician runs for office and actually wins, it means that a great deal of ppl think he can do the job, but of course that means nothing ur right they are pieces of shit that cant function at all and you personally would do a much better job since obviously you are much more accreditted for the position. i mean heaven forbid that your opinion is not THE RIGHT THING. o wait, i suppose we are a democracy so the will of the majority prevails doesnt it. too bad for you =( you understand that if you got your way we would be a tyranny? Dont give me shit about how it was the government that decided to go to war either, not the people. thats bullshit, the government is representative of the people. that is the very definition of a democratic republic. we vote them in based on their ideology and the fact that they are consistent with their ideology. well it appears that the ideology of the MAJORITY of the country desired to go to war, and war we did go to. Even though it appears that the opinions are about 50 50 on these boards, that is only 1 grouping of individuals. there are more people out there.
