I think Rudy would be like anyone else who got in office and thought they could change things. Once they meet the real power brokers and get pulled into the silent meetings about will an will not change they see they are fighting a lost cause. Then what do you do? Well very rare people might try and fight it to make a change. But once they see they can make big bank if they play by the rules, they weigh the odds of them changing anything for the future and open a new bank account. Honestly I would like to see Ross the Boss go back in. He is to old now but when he was running I knew everyone was freaking out cause he would not say how he was going to fix any of the issues. But he was speaking from a business man view. You can't say you are going to fix something if you don't have the whole picture in front of you. Beside if anyone remembers he was the one saying that NAFTA would be a bad thing in the long run. But everyone listened to the current boss thinking it was a great idea. Now everyone is pissed that when they call customer service or customer support they hear someone from India trying to pass themselves off as a guy named Mike. Not to mention that the Dems want to try and bring the jobs back to the USA now when they were the ones who gave them away. The whole system is just fucked up. I for one look forward to one thing that is 100% for sure this year. I will have Jack Daniels in my coke every night.. Enjoy the holiday time for shower and a drunken night. |

Gore, he got 1,000,000 more votes the Dubya in 2000. Somalia - Who's daddy sent the troops there when he had less the 45 days left in office. Remember where else he sent troops? The cruise missile didn't hit the Chinese Embassy. Yes all Presidents make mistakes but you can't play that game with Dubya. He's made far more and ones that can NOT be repaired easily and maybe never. Dude, we went to war with a country that was no threat to us and was an enemy of Iran and OBL. He's doubled the debt and the growth in the economy will never catch up at the current rate. He's legalized torture. You want to whine about silly stuff like Jesse having sex and that's your point. Get a life. BTW - How about Cheney's secret meetings and how much have they cost the USA? |

Shut up brain, or I'll stab you with a Q-tip!

Are you dragging my posting on the Ford topic into this because calling me a "douche" isn't exactly enlightening me. BTW- You'll note that I haven't called anyone any names in any of my postings because arguing a point is one thing, name calling is something else.

Ok...
Based on whose numbers? The people he sent to "recount" the votes? There's something wrong when a side with a vested interest in the outcome who dispatches people on his behalf that also have a vested interest in seeing their guy get in office is given more credibility than the system that never seemingly had any criticism until that point in time. Not that I don't have complete faith in the honesty and integrity of everything that transpired, but if you'll recall Gore tried rather hard to discount legimate overseas absentee ballots using alot of technicality ploys. The vast majority of those ballots were from service members serving overseas. Tell me that someone wasn't desperately trying to supress some votes in that maneuver. Quote:
If you talking about GB I then yeah, Iraq, but after Sadam made a gigantic grab at the worlds oil supply by annexing Kuwait (which lead to a U.N. resolution that permitted the coalition invasion). I also distinctly remember seeing a bunch of bodies swinging in Kuwait (from cranes and other structures) courtesy of the Iraqi forces and how American civilians were held captive (and displayed sitting next to Sadam on CNN). I wasn't referencing that incident. I was referencing how Clinton blew up a aspirin factory in Africa (which had neither tactical nor strategic value to anyone and which we subsequently wound up paying the owner for). However, if you want to discuss the Chinese embassy bombing then I would like to know how you are arriving at the conclusion that seemingly nothing happened to the Chinese Embassy (or am I reading what you wrote wrong)? A quick search of news.google.com shows that the Chinese embassy in Belgrade was indeed hit in 1999. Hell, here's even one of the articles: http://www.buffalonews.com/editorial...31/1011532.asp Quote:

Torture? You mean that our governments current information extraction policy using only mind fuck methods such as keeping people awake for hours on end, maybe humiliating them even, an occasional trip to a dunk tank, and scaring the holy hell out of them (all of which are probably less severe than the average college hazing ritual and none of which have physical dismemberment involved) fall into the same category as acid baths, beatings, breaking bones, using hot objects, and decapitation? How so? Here's a good page that's a bit more verbose on that thought (not affiliated with me): http://bushwacker.net/diversions/jokes/Patton.htm What should be doing instead to get information from captured persons? Feed them ice cream, hand them a play boy, have a prostitute suck them off, and whisper pretty please in their ears? Fact is our country is one of the few countries that if we capture you during war we'll still make sure that you get three meals a day. If you try to hunger strike we'll even stick a tube in you to make certain you get three meals a day. If you've been watching the news you'll even see that we have the decency to prosecute our OWN troops for rape and murder when they step out of line. Here's a nifty factoid: when the Abu Graib scandal broke it took may three months before the trial got under way, but it took more than a year for the trial of the soldier who tossed a grenade in to the command tent to start.

There is an enormous difference between what Cheney and Hillary spent money on. Hillary spent loads of money on a committee that never even left their desks in the U.S. and wound up accomplishing nothing. Cheney, on the other hand, managed to funnel money in a civilian run corporation that is sending civilians in to places where there is gun fire, mortar fire, explosions, and decapitations every day. Now if I were a civilan heading to one of those places I sure would hell want my pockets lined with cash or I'm not leaving home and, unlike, military soldiers there's no recourse for the company to take against those people who stayed at home. That's a hard lesson that the U.S. military learned when the shit hit the fan initially: a lot of those civilians did stay home. You may not like the amount of money being spent on those civilians, but that's the only way they're being pursaded to go over there. |

RamCharger -
The facts you haven't searched for, but should have, should lead you to another conclusion. Quote:
Cheney - "Hey, let's start a war, we can take it off the top!!" "Hey, George, want a piece of this No Bid Action??" "All you have to do is invade this country and..." Quote:
Oh wait, you seemed to have glossed over This Little Gem Now we are stuck in a convoluted fuck up beyond all imagination. Bush, without congressional approval, approved this operation. Name ONE other person that could, or should be held responsible? So what's left? Saddam is dead, Iraq is in a civil war, as far as the rest of the planet is concerned, we're responsible. So what should be our next course of action?? Seriously, what do you think we should be doing? (the majority of the 6+ Billion on the planet think we fucked up beyond what we can repair - so it matters little what we think) I don't normally argue politics, but you seem to be like just my brother, so I'll hop in on this one. (though my brother and I agree not to talk about anything political now - my mom can't stand it) btw - UW doesn't like you because you come off as an arrogant ass. He takes delight in castrating those suffering from that affliction. Just thought you might like to know

It's obvious that you don't know your history but now it seems you don't know current affairs either. I won't bother to read or comment on the rest of your post. I'm sure it's as off base as what you've already posted. No hard feelings. Just because you don't know shit about the past decade or current affairs doesn't mean you don't have a lot to offer a webmaster board |

After reading the past few messages I see that it has seemingly become the avowed intent of most people here to change what was once a civil discussion into a pissing contest laden with personal insults and complete rudeness (way to demonstrate your maturity level everyone). That said I am withdrawing from further participation in this thread (no sense in me participating in someones mindless insult game when I have more redeeming things in life that I could be doing). Good day.
