50 years ago, black were beaten to death because they talked to a white
girl or wanted to have equal rights. I'm sorry Pierce but you have been
taking us for idiots long enough. Open your eyes and stop talking about
other when the subject is about you. You might not feel that the US is
fascistic towards its people but I think it is towards the world.

Which are? you seem to know more about us then we know ourselves.

This is exactly the kind of answers that piss me off. You should work for
Bush because you master the "denial" technique better than he does. Do you
think it was a good idea to invade Irak because it could use the weapons
you sold it to attack you?

Saddam also gave the impression to be a loose canon but in fact was a nice
guy that had quite a lot of pals in the US. Maybe someone should invade
you, kill your people, steal your oil and beat your people in jails for
you to understand the question. Where are the WMD and all other nasty
stuff? Still think it was worth killing 10K+ people to prove nothing.

The one that sees the US as anything close to honnest is a fool. I think
you (Pierce) are either taking this as a joke or are completely brain
washed.
I would have prefered to argue with a Bush lover (hell it would have been
nice to hear their political opinion) than with you because I believe you
to be false! Thanks to the two or three "real mails" (IMHO of course),
that some (other) guys wrote, this thread wasn't completely useless. What
I was looking for was feelings and description of lifes some Us guys have
so I could understand better how it is to be one of you and try to
understand how your society works (and still have hope after, which I
still do ) not empty rethoric which main point was to go from the primary
subject (though you are right, more than 10 focused answers are difficult
to achieve but you diverged quicker than that)
Happy voting to all of you, Nadim.
