    This poll is to see what is the American look at the War. Do you think that Iraq is better off now or would it have been better to let them live under one crazy lunatic..?? And let me remind you right now there in a state of chaos and in a prelude of a Civil War.

    well, if you are looking for an American reaction to the War, I'll tell you right now that you won't get it here. This place is so liberal that the opinions look more like a cross section of France than a large city in Texas. It's amazing.

    Jorge, since you pride yourself on being a such hispanohablante, why don't you speak with El Venezolano in his native tongue? Are you afraid that El Canker Sore would look a bit foolish? Surely you can't be worse at speaking spanish than W.

    They may have some bedlam and a little civil war, but they are FAR better off being in charge of their own destiny.

    Sam, I am a native speaker. I have both lived and worked in a Spanish speaking country for a prolonged period of time. Don't be jealous.

    :D Man, this thread rocks.

    ElVenezolano,
    Sam and _Jorge often get into little dustups. It's pretty obviously centered on gaining my attention. One of them fantasizes about me being a genius space ape while the other has an array of slavish pet names for me. It's just something I have to live with around here.

    I'm going to have to go with "Or worst off with 15 Saddams?".

    I don't really know what it means, but what the hell...

    G-Gori, it's quite simple....you and Johji ar both trying to best me, repeatedly, unsuccessfully. He is Space Vampire Kyudora to your Gori. In the end you both get your asses spectreflashed so its all good

    by the way, el Venezolano, I once heard B-Bob badmouthing Venezuela at a Star Trek Convention. Even though he was dressed as a Klingon his pink undershirt gave him away. Apparently, he is not only an evil space genius, but apparently also a hard core Guyanan nationalist...no doubt this predeliction is rainforest related -- there was something about sex on a stage from a week ago that I'm sure he was behind. I believe there are photos if anybody wants poorf.

    That was funny.

    It was funnier when T_J tried to feign offense at discrimination against Latinos by saying "as a Spanish speaker, I take offense..."

    But that was funny.

    Houston often goes Democratic in statewide and national races, Nutbush. Sounds like it's time for you to move to France....or enlist!:D
