Just a Quick Rant - Sorry
i just wanna vent this out of my system after watching a rerun of conan and listening to the radio today.
on conan, he was telling a joke about how bush is criticising how affirmitive action is being used at the university of michigan. and people were booing and what not... i was like, "ok...if you REALLY WANT people to make it into college because of the color of thier skin or because they've earned it...go right ahead" they should have that doctor operating on them, i'll take the one that had the test scores that proved they knew what they were doing. just really got me mad. people can be idiots.
also, i'm sick of all these anti-bush, anti-war people... i mean i don't love war, but sometimes you have to do it. then all these hippies saying "drop bush, not bombs", etc... why don't we drop hippies in the bombs? they wanna sit back and do nothing. i want them on the front line when something does happen back to us because it'll be all their fault when it does happen.

It is easier to b*tch and whine than to actually deal with a problem and/or come up with some sort of realistic solution.

I'll support Bush when he starts providing evidence. Until then, he's a farce that I'd drop like lead.

It will just be shrugged off with cries of, "it's propaganda!!!!!" by most.

"hippies"? I don't think there has been any real hippies around for 20 years or so-you must be confusing them with the greenies.

i'll reserve my opinion if he actually ever bothers to present a single gdamn thing.
and it has got to be more than some grainyass video clip of some guy with a moustace and hat on (that might be saddam but you cant even tell) laughing and saying 'i hate america'. because even if that was real its no reason for war

i don't think two of the worlds foremost leaders would be pushing the issue of sadaam hiding weapons if they truely didn't know he was doing so. they have information that we (the public) do not need to know right now.
imho, i think they're trying to see what sadaam is made of because he has lied to the UN for so long. why aren't they exposing his "stash" sooner? i don't know... but they obviously have a plan because both sides are being hush hush about it.
British Prime Minister Tony Blair, a close U.S. ally, insisted Tuesday that Iraq was lying about weapons of mass destruction and called next week

I do not agree with you NokX. I find our administration is acting offensively, unjustly.

I don't know if the analogy will hold up, but perhaps it is something like poker, or just about any other game. You don't tip what you have until it is time for you to play your hand.

I guess you missed the analogy part? I never stated it was a game. Quit making leaps of logic.

Nor did I imply that you did. I was simply showing you that your analogy did not hold up. Quit making leaps of logic, because your brain is clearly not up to the task.

Well then, perhaps you should post more than "war is not a game" in a direct reply to me? But then, that wouldn't leave you wiggle room to squirm out of.

I do. Perhaps you should post less. Less mindlessly lame presumptions of others. Yes please do.

I'm pretty sure that this is jacksquat posting under a different nick. Even if it isn't, it might as well be.
I advise just ignoring them.

You're a proud troll, then?
All you can do Jayhawk is dish out personal insults and verbal attackes. It's rather pathetic.
