as much as you may displike our choice, we have the leaders we want. Mike "We ain't stuck on stupid." badass Lt. General Russel Honore **"Remember - live bunnies are a great source of nourishment"**silly-assed cartoon A vegan is someone who never heard a carrot cry!
((Trollslayer wrote: It is the leaders you have to sort out yet I see no sign of this.)) [as much as you may displike our choice, we have the leaders we want.Mike] We can say we don't like our leaders. But it is our decision to support them ahead of time. If they look for wepons of mass destruction and don't find them, we still support them. If they have sex with the Pizza Girl in the white house, we still...I regret...support them. Most important, the soldiers....our 19YO kids.....fight and still support them.

Well, it may be our right legally (dunno the law that well), but I believe it should be everyone's right. He shold be free to be stupid, and we should be free enough to call him stupid. :)

Well, if the CIA came knocking on his door to have a pow-wow that would be cool actually (in a weird way). But, if he did go to jail over something as trivial as that post, then we have a serious problem in this country far greater than some foreign inbred leeaching on our ecomony (and yeah, if people hate this country so much but are over here and use it for finacial gain, they're leaching IMO). FWIW, I seriously doubt the CIA even cares about him. Jeremy Falcon

He is free to be stupid. Though he is lucky to be able to speak publicly. Back home he might loose his family for such stupidity. But here, he gets to speak out, and borrow our language to do it also.....lucky guy. That's what makes our country better than his. That's the kind of freedom we are fighting for. We are actually killing people in other nations so that they will be able to speak out over there also. So it must be a good thing to be able to listen to such drivel. Lucky us too. Sky

My comments were not against his right to do so. They were more an angle of "is it wise" to do so. There's a few people here who don't seem to get that though. But as far as your comments go. Here it's our right and I'd fight to defend it. Abroad, that's a confusing mess and I just cannot get involved in that. There's so much spin going on with all of it. It's a very hard thing to fully understand (for me at least). What is really true? Who ordered it if it is true? Was it an accident or intentional? Have we done it before? Will we do it again? UGHHHHHHH!!!!

That's about a dumb of statement as anyone could make. Jeremy Falcon
FYI, it was a question, not a statement.

2 things I doubt.
1. I doubt this guy is an American citizen and the right you invoke is *our* right not his.
2. I don't care who you are.

I'd say that's worth quite a bit. Thank you! Fortunately that wraps up my part in the whole darned thing. Say whatever you want to whoever you want and however you want. I'm going to go torture my children. :laugh:

Well after seeing this http://www.boston.com/news/education/higher/articles/2005/12/24/students_tall_tale_revealed/[^] forget about what I said. Guess I'm worried about nothing.

Did you read the article? Or even the URL? "Students Tall Tale Revealed"? The whole thing was a hoax.
Yeah, it was a hoax. That was my whole reason for telling the guy to not say that on a message board and it turned out to be a hoax. I still don't know if I would say something like that to anyone but yup... A hoax. That's why I said my comments were done. The wooden leg I was standing on turned out to be hollow. Oh well...
In a lot of ways I'm really relieved to learn it was a hoax. 1984 is farther away than I thought (closer than I want) but still farther away for now...

It was a rhetorical question. Since the easy stuff has to be explained to you obviously. :| Jeremy Falcon

I thought it was an excellent reply to Brian's question "The same cold blooded Americans who gave over $500,000,000 in relief for Pakistani's after the earthquake?", if you take the thread's context into consideration. Maybe I'm just another stupid foreigner who should just shut the fuck up?
