Why would we (Americans) care about what others in the world care about OUR foreign policy?... Namely the has-beens on the sidelines... (i.e. Canada, France, Germany, etc.) When have they had the opportunity to make ANY decission that effects/affects the world... They wait and ponder... Or let surrender. THey are SMALL MICE... THey DO NOTHING. WWI, WWII, Africa, COMMUNISM, GENOCIDE, etc. They wait for the AMericans to save the day, cuz we always do. America is the only country not afraid of Islamo fascists. Look at Europe... They appease the fanatical beheaders. Americans will stand and fight! You think Bush is ignorant? Youre a fool. HE IS THE MOST POWERFUL MAN IN THE WORLD AND HE CARES NOT FOR YOUR OPINIONS... Only the safety and preservation of his country. Say what you may... Youre not in the game anyway... Youre only watching from the sidelines.

Bush is an idiot, I'm convinced of that. while I am not "in the game" I'm not stupid enough to be brainwashed because some idiot had an important daddy and had huge financial backing to become a president to believe everything that person says. and bush has done nothing to lower gas prices, they have gone up more in his presidency than any other presidents before he was president I was getting gas for around $1.30 for a while there I was paying nearly 3 bucks, now I'm still paying nearly $2. bush has no diplomatic skills, if someone invaded the us and took bush out of power I'd be thankful bush was gone, but like the iraqi people I'd still be pissed your killing innocent people. and guess what kids the "islamo fascists" are no different then the christian fascists in the us, the US just started another crusade through the holy land, for what seems more like an attempt to destroy a whole religions belief structures than for anything else. don't believe me? how about the whole WMD where are they? has the bush gov't even appologized to the american people that they were wrong, and sent thousands of americans and iraqis alike to their death? no they just changed their tactics saying that its full of terrorists, I know before the bush presidency I rarely heard about terrorists, now its a daily occurance, and how is the iraqi peoples acts of terrorism any different than the americans forefathers when they were liberating the colonies from britain? pull your head out of your asses and look at something from an outside perspective once in a while. I see no plausible reason why we should be in the middle east as a military power at all right now. if he truly were a smart president he would've either sent in enough troops to actually take care of the problem, or be even more smart and deal with the diplomatic accords that make assasinations of a foreign power a no no. and sent in an american depressed teen as an envoy and made the teen and the iraqi people happier by having the kid blow himself up and saddam. war is never the answer!

mogul, you are right in that war war is wrong, however sometimes it is the answer... maybe not in this situation but sometimes it is definatly needed. i'm not 100% percent sure what you meant by the depressed teen thing , but if you were implying that depression in america is out of control and not legit then i agree, we have a lot to be thankful for. my general opinon isn't that bush is awesome , or that we shouldn't be in iraq, however now that we are we should support national unity and support our government. if anything do it out of fear for showing weekness, we are the most powerfull nation to set foot on this planet, and we have freedoms and abilities neverthought of in the past. be greatful that you are and american, have some pride for your democratic gov't, and be glad that your not being shot at for bad mouthing it. just because there is no punishment doesn't make it right.. expess your views in ways that are effective, not negative, you will never get anywhere

hey vailposseone, aside from u not knowing what foreigne investment is, id like to know where u got ur education from, u called canada a has been... truth is canada has only progressed since its founding, and u mention ww1? canada lost more soldiers in that war, had more soldiers survive that saw action, and was recognized for its efforts there at the paris peace confrence, and during the treaty of versailles. its because of canadas war efforts and "saving the US's" ass that it is so highly regarded in europe. if it wasnt for our efforst in WWI we wouldnt have been recognized independetly from britain. and the US is powerful no doubt, but the only power they have is military, their economy has been run into the dirt. im not saying i hate the US, cuz i dont. i hate the government but the people and landscape arnt bad at all. and bush invaded iraq to free the people, but they did taht through war, and they broke the first law NATO ever made, and that is making war illegal. the US is the largest criminal in the world, not to mention their disrespect to free trade agreements and the like.
