"I remember when I was around 7 years old I had to climb 10 floors with buckets of water in my hands because we didn't have tap water for several days... and the electricity was out, so no elevator either. When you live in such circumstances, the people tend to be more vocal about their descent, and there are more people who'll think 'wow, there's something wrong with this picture'."

Conservatives aren't as sturdy in their resolve as they make themselves out to be. Take ANY of these "mommy-dearest" anti-war activists. They were all for killing Arabs till their kids did the largest splits you'll ever see; now all of a sudden they're "infuriated".
I was never for invading Iraq, but I don't sympathize with these people. "Boo-hoo, Bush is a war criminal, waaaahhhh!!! *blubber blubber*". True enuff, but you're the dumb bitch who encouraged your son to go kill Arabs... Self-absorbed, weak, and stupid. Unless it happens to THEM, they couldn't care less. This is how most people think.
One of these days a very big nuke is going to give a very big city a very rude awakening. Virtually EVERY PERSON in this country will be affected, not just tightass Republican soccer moms. Everyone. The American people need to know what war is. Right now they have no fucking clue. Bring war home, and people will wake up... either that or Dick'n'Bush'll declare Martial Law, and everybody'll put a fucking flag on their flipping door, (I shudder to think). I really don't want to see this or any other country get nuked, but it's looking more and more like an inevitability.
Cheers,
William

This isn't in direct response to anything. Just something i wanted to say.

Honestly, is everyone else in the world outside of the US really so much more informed about the rest of the world? I really doubt it. A lot of people seem to have this opinion that Americans are the only people who don't know shit about other countries, but I've talked to various europeans who didn't know shit about their own countries, let alone other countries. And I've witnessed the exact same "My country is better than everyone else" attitude in almost every other foreign person I've talked to.

I really don't think that americans are the only ones who are addicted to television, extreme consumerism and over eating. Maybe I'm wrong. But i don't think I am.

I know that the US takes things to extremes, but looking at China or Japan or the UK, from what i've been able to gather, the people look just as stupid, and generally addicted to the same things.

I know this is off topic somewhat, and stuff thats been said before, but I think it was woth adressing.

William: yeah, that soccer mom shit bugs the fuck out of me. It's like these people really didn't understand that their kid could die. And when they do, it's bush's fault. I'm totally against the war, but these dipshits chose to go there. They all chose to enter the army, and if they get a bullet in the head, i don't feel sorry at all. If they didnt get it then its their fault for being fucking stupid. And I just don;t understand how these dumb cunts couldn't equate army+war= possible death of child. pretty fuckin simple.
