more than they do. Thankfully, because of sites like this and others on the internets, where people around the world can see that all of us have not lost our minds, they know the problem is with our government.

I hope they take pity on us when World War III starts. And it will.

ON EDIT: The "pity" I wish for is ironical. We pity the 100,000 dead Iraqis. But they're still dead.

1. Yes, but one look at the Other site, and it's thumbs down for us all
Have to tell you something that I don't want to say, but must. If we're the best evidence of mitigating circumstances, the American prospect is pretty bleak. At least as history will judge us.

I'm sure that similar conversations were heard among German Social- Democrats in the 1930s. Maybe we'll be luckier, and things will have a better end for our country, but that certainly wouldn't be because Americans are any smarter.

This telling the truth business can be pretty depressing. My apologies, in advance. :eyes:

2. If it weren't for the internet, we'd all be out protesting in the streets
against this scumbag of a criminal president, instead of sitting on our asses behing closed doors, whining to each other how everything sucks and getting no where for it.
