Personal arguements will end, right now

@Gargantua:

Yes he has the authority to make those decisions.  The crown gave it to him.  But NO we don’t have to like it, and YES we can freak out about it, complain about it, and get seditious about it.

What’s all this we business Garg? You got a mouse in your pocket or something? Cause I don’t hear anyone else getting downright rowdy about every single ruling in favour of indigenous rights… or women’s day for that matter…

Oh I’m not alone…

Considering I plan to live forever (or die trying!) I will see the sun go supernova!

It adds some variety to the otherwise McFarlane dominated line up. I miss King of the Hill.

There is an interesting story - i believe in either Kings or Chronicles - where God employs the use of a “lying spirit” - sounds like one of those free-lance Gods like Loki/Mercury/Hermes/whatever in order to thwart one of the kings of Israel.  I wish i was not so busy/lazy to trudge out all of the details, but i thought it kind of funny.

@Mary:

@Jennifer:

The Germans never attacked one US Citizen until after we pre-emptively attacked them, just like in Iraq.

Lol, you’re so full of sh*t you must squeak. Germany and Italy declared war on the U.S. on Dec. 11, 1941.

Now Mary, i fully understand your feeling. I’m boycotting any further debate w/ Jen just begin to try to avoid degenerating into insults. You may consider the same
Anyway - you are correct. Following Canadian spy-master William Stephenson’s leaking of the false/putative “rainbow war plans” of the US suggesting that the US was to declare war against Germany, Germany pre-emptively declared war against the US. This forced the hand of the US:

To the Congress of the United States:

On the morning of Dec. 11 the Government of Germany, pursuing its course of world conquest, declared war against the United States. The long-known and the long-expected has thus taken place. The forces endeavoring to enslave the entire world now are moving toward this hemisphere. Never before has there been a greater challenge to life, liberty and civilization. Delay invites great danger. Rapid and united effort by all of the peoples of the world who are determined to remain free will insure a world victory of the forces of justice and of righteousness over the forces of savagery and of barbarism. Italy also has declared war against the United States.

I therefore request the Congress to recognize a state of war between the United States and Germany, and between the United States and Italy.

@F_alk:

Why do the US have to implement another CIA funded (former?) really violent man/terrorist as a president? … that does not sound like a steep learning curve.

You referring to Bush or Zahwar?

Bush nor any other prez is CIA funded as Far as I know… Why would they?

So I assume you mean Zahwar?

@ZimZaxZeo:

@El:

Now, now, JZ! If It weren’t for Cauliflournia the rest of the post-civilized world would be at war with the USA as the New Fourth Reich. Seig Bush!

Be grateful for the balance they bring to our country.

I, for one, am glad of the balance that lovely ol’ Canada brings to our continent – thanks y’all from up north there!

WHAT THE %$##@*^!?!? Did you post on the wrong thread?

Jan__, I believe Saddam’s last two approval ratings(taken at election time, therefore, equaling his vote percentages were 99.6%(1995, I think) and 99.9%(2000, I think.) Interestingly enough, immediately after both elections, 0.4%(1995) and 0.1%(2000) of the voters shot themselves in the back of their heads. There has been some idle speculation due to the fact that when these #s are added together they equal 100.0% for both elections. No complete cross-referencing has been done to verify that all these distraught voters did not support Saddam. There has been some support for the idea that these unfortunate voters were upset that Saddam did not get unanamous approval.

I’m not sure you know what I mean
