There's a reason why the bright ones left us long ago.
Swamplord looking for endless thanks from Western Europe because his grandfather helped bring down the 3rd Reich? Ah well, what can you do? That's what Americans are taught. I've been waiting for my official butt kiss from every Euro here for the last six years. He's going to have to wait in line for his.
Warhawks in Vietnam believed that we were this close to winning the war and that all we needed was the will to bomb the north and a few hundred thousand more troops? Someone forgot to read General Ridgeway's report to Eisenhower in the mid '50s.
The U.S. meddles in the affairs of the Middle East dating back to the 1950s and the grandsons of those who made the decisions to give up the moral high ground to fight the cold war with Russia can't understand why the Muslim world resents us?
The towers come down and the citizenry of the U.S. is so grief stricken that they give the president a blank check to do with what he wants to bring those to did that to justice. The president and his cabinet told us that Iraq was a danger. We believed him. Dan Rather himself said, "Mr. President, what do you want me to do?" Our president said, "Afghanistan! Taliban! They shelter Al Queda!" We invade Afghanistan.
Our president says, "Saddam harbors terrorists! Saddam has weapons of mass destruction! Saddam has weapons of mass destruction related programs! Saddam is on a first name basis with Bin Laden! Iraq is a member of the Axis of Evil! Invade Iraq!" And so we did, without asking any hard questions.
This is the tacit approval by the media that this administration has exploited ever since September 11. Anyone who dissents is branded an Al Queda lover. Anyone who questions provisions of the Patriot Act is branded a Saddam lover. Anyone who votes against war in Iraq is targeted by the Patriot police, courtesy of Fox news.
The Bush administration had Iraq targeted long before the towers went down and used the tragedy to push forward its plans for hegemony in the region. The Downing Street Memos prove that. Simpletons call it a war for oil but it's much, much more than that.
America is supposed to be a free and democratic society. Are we Americans surprised when the world is alarmed by statements such as, "The U.N. is irrelevant" or "despite not having found any WMDs we are, in full defiance of the U.N., going to invade Iraq."
Actually we are. We saved the world from speaking German. We saved the world from speaking Russian. You and your children and your children's children owe us and our children your unfettered allegiance. You, the world, owe us Americans your complete support for whatever we do whenever we do it. When we want your lip we'll scrape it off our Appalachian zipper. When we want your opinion we'll give it to you. When we want to act undemocratic, when we want to invade other countries that haven't attacked us, we don't need your cackles of disapproval. Every irritating shriek we hear from your country makes us that more inclined to invade you after we're done with the mess in Iraq.

I vote we invade Norway next. Those panzies have monopolized the lotion in hand creams for the last time. I just got off the phone with Gen. Collin Powell. He says he has a backup understudy who is ready for the next U.N. WMD briefing. Yes that's right I said "briefing", not discussion or debate. That means We're simply going to say we're coming to invade Norway before we do it. No opinions are necessary. Those who wish to stop us from invading Norway better have a darn good reason or else we'll slip a not-so-obvious transatlantic note to our european lapdogs over in the U.K. who still owe us big for the amount of women we sent them after most of theirs were destroyed during the battle of Britain in world war II. And let me tell you they don't take kindly to threats against the Godfather. Our main and stated goal is to re-establish the Roman Empire. Pax Epluribus Romana Unum

It's like we've gone and invade countries for no reason. I, for one, use to believe that there was victory in Iraq, until I realised of course that's just like Vietnam.
There's no weapons of mass destruction in Iraq, just weapons of mass deception. The leader of Iran has weapons, so does Jong-Il, but invading Iran AND North Korea would be a losing battle, especially the latter because of the copious amount of guards protecting old Kimmy.

Or France. Yeah France because they don't support the U.S. Or Kyrgyzstan, that too. And New Zealand, Papua New Guinea... Hell, every country where they wear a turban.

The thread title says it all, "pissing and moaning". If you were married to someone who came home from work every day and started pissing and moaning, you wouldn't be married to them very long. Who would want to listen to it day after day after day. It accomplishes absolutely nothing, yet it's irritating as hell.
The pissing and moaning about the US has been going on around here for years. It stopped for a while, or at least cut back substantially. But then we get a new wave of pissers and moaners who want to take their shot. Pissers and moaners who take every opportunity to take a shot at the US even when it has nothing to do with the thread, or even the rest of the person's post. "I was at the store today buying some apples and Bush is an idiot, but I couldn't decide between the red and green apples." Seriously, that's not much of an exaggeration for some people.
Just like the married person who would divorce a spouse who constantly pisses and moans, people are going to get tired of pissing and moaning about the US. Just like they would get tired of pissing and moaning about any other subject. Nobody wants to hear it. Some of us have been listening to it for several years now and getting tired of it.
If the pissers and moaners didn't have the US to b**** about, they would just find something else to target. It's simply in their nature, and nobody wants to be around it. In RL most people prefer a pleasant smile to the sour look of a P&M. It's almost impossible to b**** with a smile on your face. A smile makes the world a better place, and P&Ming make it a worse place, simple as that.

Pissing and moaning serves no purpose. I'm trying to accomplish something. When I figure out what, I'll let you know

That made me laugh. Last year, our teacher had us write to kids in Kyrgzstan. Good times.

Fascist government is government which has not only the president/prime minister who is a military leader but which has most of the political representatives, bureacracy and other governmental officials in military uniform.
So with this definition in mind US doesn't fit.
I also believe that US President has only the right to deploy marines without getting approval of Congress first.
No, I believe he can deploy any member of the armed forces, but if it is into a country that won't let us, he has to get a declaration of war first.

The exit polls would seem to agree with that assessment. But leadership isn't about polls! It's about making difficult choices and doing what you think is right!
In any case I was taking my dog for a walk and she took a dump right there in the same spot she always does on our walk. Of course I knew it was coming but that didn't take away the hurt is caused me. I was upset to say the least. I simply can't understand why president Bush would do such a thing. I trusted him!
I then proceeded to do the dishes. They're always stacked neatly (yeah right) on the counter just above the dish washer. First I removed the clean ones from the machine and then proceeded to place the filthy dirty plates and silverware into the racks in the usual right spots. One plate in particular was really jammed up with some left over unknowness. I tried rinsing it and scraping it but the junk was very much like oatmeal if left to dry for a day or two. I couldn't get it off for the life of me! I began to run through my hardness scale that I learned from science class in junior high. I wondered if the metal makeup of the butterknives might be better or possibly damage the glazed porcelin-looking plate instead. I get so tired of having to go through things like this! I just couldn't stop thinking about the teachers being forced into those hardline results from the No-child-left-behind act implemented by the president! They're being carrot-dangled by the age-old lure of money as an incentive! I'm so sick of this garbage! Why can't this awful guck simply remove itself from my plates!
