    Ummm ok..... I will see what i can do. Donald Rumsfeld did say he would consider the presidency.

    Or how aout we just make the head of the CIA the president? Dual role. No more getting the intellegince mixed up. If they do get mixed up, despite the same guy holding both positions, we know the guy has issues.

    Considering that the guy in the pic is probably rotting somewhere because he had been drinking off a third world urinal, I will pass. Thanks for the offer though.

    Ya, after being tortured [see below] I took you off the ignore list. To be truthful I kept peeking (like I do to everyone I ever have on my ignore list - current population - ZERO) because I love your sophomoric antics.

    uh... no.

    remember how annoying that kid who played anakin was?

    the only difference is anakin had a ton of untapped raw talent.

    Let's put it this way

    I'm a lot more scared of Bush than I am of a terrorist.

    you should definetly test that out to see if its true. go try to have a meeting with the president with a 'i hate gw' shirt and then try going to pakistan with a tshirt with the danish flag on it.

    Not really an accurate test, since one is far more likely to happen should somebody live out their lives normally.

    A more accurate test would be, one is more likely to steal your freedom than the other is likely to steal your life.

    The result would be Bush is more likely to seize your freedom, than a terrorist is likely to seize your life.

    blade, the correct answer is that one terrorist can only do so much damage, a group of them is capable of much more. dubya is personally responsible for creating legions of new terrorists which no doubt increases our chances of being "terrorized". the two most dangerous men in the world are he and OBL. they form the poles of this culture war-turned-world war that becomes more and more black and white every day.

    what freedom is he stealing from me? i dont care if its it hilary clinton as president. if she says she needs to wiretap me to see if i'm not a threat to the world then fine. let her and bill listen to my rants about the Rockets. as long as they dont ban cartoons or women wearing daisy dukes, i'm cool with it. i guess the leadership in europe is better, thats why all these people in france are looking like detriot citizens after they won a championship.

    you realize the US has enemies? i hope you guys arent so blind by politics, which of course you all are, both left and right wingers, that you forget that people hate us. its the nature of the game, if you are the most powerful country in the world, people will want to take you down.

    its the government, cia, nsa, democrats, republicans, the police to ensure our safety. yes, terrorists are more dangerous. jehadists, timmothy mcveys, the elf people who are burning houses and car dealerships. all those dudes need to get taken out.

    the great thing is the president changes every 4-8 years, so you guys cant rant on and on and on. either you rush limbaughs or you cindy sheehans can go buck wild on each other. im going to be out partying enjoying the PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS, cause that's why we're americans and that's why people hate us. there is no uptopia people.

    guess what? the world isnt disney land or dawson's creek!
    4-8-12 years down the road, there will be political problems in the USA and the world will still be dangerous. people will still hate us. people will still burn american flags, president "insert person" will still be hated. I hope we do get a new president so you guys can rant on some new topics.
    remember rush limbaugh? that dude was so popular because clinton was in office. now that dude is trash. howard dean? what's his allure when there's a democrat at the white house.
    jesus and mohamed are laughing at us somewhere. looking at us like we are bunch of morons. except for me of course, they know i found the way, they know i'm hear to maximize the joy of life.

    Which is more dangerous? 30 terrorists taking 5 years to plan an attack that will kill thousands of lives on a single day or 300 terrorists who can't make a more formitable plan than carrying out single suicide attacks?

    Its a matter of time before they start using biological or chemical attacks. You can't sit back and try to make peace with people who never want peace.
