No it’s the fight against the brain-dead, like you greg.

It’s a disagreement about reality. And if there is a disagreement about reality, then the person who is wrong is insane, that’s you greg.

Send her over to Iraq. We need luke warm bodies now to guard the gates of the green zone.

Saddam was such a nice guy, I miss him.

No, greg, Helen was pointing a verified fact. You neoCON koolaid addict.

Same shit different day!!!!

you liberal schill.

But isn’t just about everyone in the Bush administration in over their heads?

America is, comparatively speaking, cheap. Of the first world countries right now, it is the one that gives least in aid to the rest of the world, only giving 0.1% of GDP. England, actually gives one heck of a lot more, at 1% of GDP. (Anybody doesn’t believe me, go look it up.)

Plus that 0.1% is actually mostly made up of loans, with agreements that those loans will be used to buy excess American goods. Thus meaning that local industries are not developed to produce those goods themselves, and that America gets paid back thrice: Once when the loan is paid off, because unlike America Africa is expected to pay its debts, once when that country buys America’s goods, and once when America gains the benefit of less competition in the markets.

Yet at the same time America is the country which whines about it most.

It is also the country which is currently the biggest culprit in making that aid “neccessary.” Global warming is having a definite effect in sub-saharan Africa, with South Africa going through a drought, Mozambique dealing with massive flooding (Which it is handling somewhat better then America handled Katrina, BTB) and various countries citing America’s actions at Gitmo as their justification of how they are behaving on human rights.

That is the reality as an African that I have seen of America’s “Generosity.”

And yet I am pro America. Perhaps in part because I know what the economy will do if America’s economy goes down, in part because America does have a positive roll to play in the world. Where America leads, the world follows, and if America leads us to peace, prosperity and goodwill, then we all benefit, if America leads us to where the Republicans are going now, towards war, poverty and hatred, then we all lose.

Juan, I so appreciate that you comment here. I learn from you everyday.

That might just be the best post I’ve ever read here… That was brilliant Juan.

Having Fox News or Rush Limbaugh give you their interpretation of the “real world” does not count as having based your beliefs on the real world itself…

Juan C,

…in their personal Walter Mitty daydreams…

See my point? By definition, US is the good force in every conflict. There is no question about it, no shade of doubt whatsoever, no discussion, no criticism. After US starved to death a ruined country that invaded Kuwait in order to press oil prices to its convenience and with complete allowance by Bush I, we had the I Gulf War. US was the good humanitarian force throwing out evil Saddam from good ol´Kuwait. No question about it. 12 years later after making up evidence US throws a shaming shock and awe operation against an unarmed country for some UN resolution violation while US has 70+ violations according to UN resolutions. But, there is no question that those bombs are somehow to spread peace and democracy. Then the toppling of the Saddam´s regime, the first thing US forces did was to seize the Oil Ministry in Baghdad, while everything else was left for looting, you know, that will spread peace and democracy, right? Now, US builds 14 permanent bases in Iraq; yeah, as in permanent, while Iraqis want US out, but I guess they are now far better than they were back in Saddam´s days…or they? Iraqis are willing to die in order to kill US forces, Sunnis, Shiites, Wahabbists, whatever, but they werent willing to die back then. US forces torture and rape civilians, but thats another way to bring peace and stability to the Middle East. But no, US actions are always for a good cause. Always.
Now I can go to throw up.

#183 Michael, once again you display a fox like non-grasp of reality. Nort Korea and their Nuke program were contained and did not break the agreement until our president and his adminsitration reniged on terms of the Clinton era settlement. Once they renigged so did North Korea. Additionally the agreement we have today is no better than what Clinton had, so where exactly are we better off? Your post overall sets you off as being a knee kjerk my way or fk off type of conservative.

Firehead, using your logic, the united states had something to do with 911 since the hijackers were in the country prior to 911. Dizzying.

#195 she did not say Iraq did 911 but once again she is freely associating Iraq and 911 even though the two are totally unrelated. If Iraq is or becomes a safe haven for terrorists it is because we created the mess. Also now please explain how leaving will give them a safe haven? They already have a safe haven that we are not doing anything about it is called Saudi Arabia. ANyhow do you think that the Shia are goingto let their enemy roam free? The Kurds? The Sunni May, but if we leave the Sunni Will align with Saudi, the Shia with Iran and the kurds will fend for themselves so our friends the Saudis can work on AlQueda since they are essentially the logistics base for the group. Bunny you also seem to imply that AlQueda are the only one’s in Iraq causing violence. Well according to our military, you know the “guys in the ground” Al Queda is somewhere around 5% of the total. And if we leave they may not leave but sure as shooting the shia will beat their ass and make them wish they had left.
