Are Bush and Blair doing their best?

Is torture at Gitmo just an understandable, if unfortunate, feature of war?

Are terrorists being hunted down as best they can be, and is the protest over how the war is going in America just a fad whipped up by the left?

Is the world economy just fine, with the tempory deficits to be expected in war time?

Is death and destruction a natural part of on-going Human History, and nothing to be so shocked over?

Is 'The Alliance' of Firefly just a tool for drama, and something our world could never really sink to?

*Just curious as to the thinking involved in accepting Bush, or any world leader, at their word, and backing their actions, no matter how ill-concieved they may seem, without much question.

lol, I think this thread will probably be fun, especially once the pirates and the conservatives become involved.

My answers: no, no, no, probably, yes (still not nice, though), who knows.

Not in the mood to explain why, it's all been said before.



Other people can occasionally be useful, especially as minions. I want lots of minions.

Chris, are you still beating your significant other?

I'm going to need to think about this one before I can give a reasoned response.
In the meantime I'll wait for PN's inevitable rant to happen.
I urge everyone here to ignore him when he does.

No, in point of actual fact, she broke my leg in Aikido class some time back; I couldn't actually 'beat' her, even if I wanted to, she'd hurt me.
She's like Zoe that way.

What does that have to do with this thread; I'm missing something funny...?

Wow, this is loaded thread.


“War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things. The decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling which thinks that nothing is worth war is much worse. The person who has nothing for which he is willing to fight, nothing which is more important then his own personal safety, is a miserable creature and has no chance of being free unless made or kept so by the exertion of better men then himself.” -- John Stuart Mill



Nihil est incertius vulgo, nihil obscurius voluntate hominum, nihil fallacius ratione tota comitiorum.

Nothing is more unpredictable than the mob, nothing more obscure than public opinion, nothing more deceptive than the whole political system.

-- Cicero

Of course it's the left thats the problem. They're all a bunch of anti-war peacenik wishy washy cowardly warmongering psychopaths who are responcible for all conflicts ever who wouldn't raise a finger to defend themselves if their lives depended on it.

Capiche.
