What exactly do you think people are supposed to do when they vote? That's right decide which candidate bests fits their issues. I fully admit that US democracy is a farce but it is a democracy.

If anything, a democracy is a varient on a republic, since the republic came first.

I'm trying to figure out what Kendall and Teaos are arguing over, as they are both staunch anti-Americans. I mean, both Canada and New Zealand have equal places in the First World as the U.S., right?

Canada provided... well... they helped form the Devil's Brigade during WWII, and without them we wouldn't have back bacon or Loverboy.

and New Zealand... well, wool is good, and those little kiwi fruits are good in salads...

I hope you guys know that this is all in good fun, right?

Innuendo is reaching critical, captain!

Increase power to self control! Take it from life support if you have to!

Or we could pull out so New Zealand could take its rightful place as the true protector of the free world and step up to be the superpower that it rightfully is, right?
Mikey you should know that there isnt anything I would want less than that...

Cpl Kendall
Why not? I'm amused that there are still people willing to defend this idiocy.
I am certinly not defending it. I have opposed the war since before it started. But I also think now thats its started you cant pull out till its stable.

I am not anti American. I am Anti Bush and anti this war. I think their surrent forign policy is batshit insane. But as a general rule I quite like America. I think up until this administration it was a good example of a first class western democracy. Their forign policy was good and they tried to help people out.

The American people are a good as people from anyother country I have meet.

You mistake my loathing for America's current forign policy for loathing of America as a whole.
I hope you guys know that this is all in good fun, right?
I love you Mikey :P
