Hi all,
actually there’s more common sense approach here than you’d think.
Thing is we tried to keep W out and it didn’t work. twice. We’ve had plenty of shitty leaders before … its easier to wait them out than start a revolution and that’s about what it takes once they are in.
you hope they don’t wreck the boat beyond fixing before their time is over. W is proving that’s a bad formula but US is so apothetic that unless it bites us in our OWN respective ass … we might bitch about it … might even send a nasty email to our reps … but that’s about it.
and things go downhill fast from that point. we shouldn’t have to be our leader’s watchdogs … but with the idiots we vote in … we need casino type government where we have “eyes in the sky” to keep the moron with the affluent daddy or the pretty white smile, … from blowin’ up the freakin’ world.
I disagree with the statements that we look at war as a sports contest. I think the only ones hard enough to think that way are the old cronies who are in office that obviously don’t even care for their own decendants or they’d be raising hell about the real issues we need to be facing like the fact that look at all we’ve done to our environment in only 50 years. As long as this place has been around we’ve done considerable …almost toppling damage in an amount of time that is equivalent to a drop in a very big bucket.
