Of course not, you silly. Neither is Bush.

When they were handing out a sense of humor did you think they said "sickening tumor" and get out of line? "Thats a joke, Son"

Difference is, Mal makes his own decisions, and Bush finds out what his are from his 'advisors' and the peeps that have already done stuff in his name (I think they're called Generals or something).

You always try to distract me with humour
- Bottom line: Why do you think Mal is a terrorist?

Um.. cause he IS ?

And in the context of the verse as presented via Firefly/Serenity - that's not necessarily a bad thing.

Terrorism is a tactic, not a country, not a force of people, but merely a tactic - and folks who use it are, well, terrorists.

Hell, the Boston Tea Party was an act of terrorism, to be absolutely blunt about it.

Chasing your little sister with a large plastic spider to make her stay out of your room is 'terrorism' by the book, for cryin out loud.

That's why one finds this whole GWOT thing ludicrous, it's like declaring war on fog, just plain silly.

In effect, we're all terrorists.

So fekkin what.

Why, that would mean that the GWOT might include as it's enemy the U.S. and other 'good guy' countries!

I see your point, I doubt certain others will.

What crowd is that? Everyone knows that it's Cheney who's responsible for everything bad!

Agreed Frem...

So, were we FOR Global Terror before 9/11?

Make a name, present it, and see who disagrees.
Who will? That is why it is pointless to announce this agenda and have the admin. poke their chests out.

Was it the National War on Terror after Okla. City. This was just as disturbing for me when this happened. (far less people died, I know) I didn't get a color coded terror alert after that though.


GO CANES!!!
