lol. ok, not all of them tho, cause some of them suck, but others are just hilarious.
1. notice how america is one of the toughest countries on earth, but 90% of the commercials are for erectile failure pills?
2. why the hell doesnt half the teenage population know what ethnicity it is?
3. why the hell are the 2 main political parties represented by a jackass and a giant fatass that shits out 40 pounds of b.s. all day?
those are the best 3 probably.

really? picked off like flies, if thats what you call about 20 a month, with occasional surges.

how many people do you think died everyday in the civil war? thousands, and that was americans v. americans. this is really a very mild war if you think about it. what they dont show is the iraqi death toll, they make it seem the troops are getting demolished and knocked out left and right, the total american death toll is about 5-10,000, but the iraqi death toll is much, much higher, everything is blown out of proportion by the media

it would save a lot more soldiers if we just carpet bombed the whole place:D everyone who says this is a stupid war because we are losing soldier, you know you would be copmlaining even more if we did it the easy way. i dont want to sound unsympathetic or anything, it is sad when a soldier is lost.

ok, if you really want to debate this war, i can talk. i served in this war. so i really think you might want to not say this is a light war. do not compare this to the civil war, or any other war for that matter. and at any rate, i thought your boy GWB sait "Mission Accomplished" 2 years ago. So that wouldnt make it a war at all, would it?

the days of wars where we carpet bomb everything is over, especially in our position. imagine if instead of trying to be humanitarians to the people, we just killed them all, even though we just wanted to oust the leader. thats really f'n brilliant. we did not enter this wart to fight the people. this was not the situation we anticipated, but its the position we are in. I wish we (the military) got as much support as it is hyped we are. if GWB supported us the way he says he does, then everything would be kosher. but he doesnt. we are in the middle of a bad situation and our funding is getting cut. the navy is kicking thousands of sailors out of the military. all the while the army is activating reservists, and sending them to war, people in their 60s. this is a war that is being fought as clean as possible on the front lines, and dirty as hell on the homefront.

media is always biased thats a part of life. its one of those necessary evils.

the civil war is nothing like this one. there was a reason for the civil war. had it not happened believe it or not our country would be in utter shambles. theres no reason for this one, only to feed george's schizophrenia.
cmcpokey's right. this isnt comparable to other wars because, well, of unjustification.
americans getting ripped to pieces and mollified by infidels. is that okay with you?

200 has been what has been publicised... we are spending waaaaaaaaay more. especially for the navy aspect of it. there is a huge naval presence there, as there has been for the last 2 decades. this cost hasnt been factored in to bush's figs. but then you also have to realize, we are not the only ones there. the aussies and brits are there in force too. so they are each spending gobs of money too.

SPHFerrari
01-06-2005, 05:12 PM
just notices another hting bout the snowball. this guy has sold thousand of items and is a powerseller, which leads me to beleive he saw it was snowing, went outside and made a snowball so he oculd sell it to suckers on ebay. this just makes it a bit stupid i think. it was planned.

SPHFerrari
01-06-2005, 05:13 PM
funny, part of it is oil for gasoline that we went in for (not the only thing but def has a factor) and its one of the things that realy drove up the cost of this war. gasoline has been a deciding factor in war. WWII anyone?

EDIT: people often dont think about the natural resources they take for granted when it comes to war. did you knwo there was an incredible strain on the US's RUBBER industry in WWII. rubber peices for ships and autos and planes caused the nation to go to extreme lengths to produce rubber, and lead to the invention of artificail rubber now used in tires and other modern rubber products. you wouldnt really think of rubber when you think of a war would you?

but not nearly as much though. they account for somewhat 16% of the force right? you'd probably know these figures a lot better than everyone else here.

im not the kinda guy who protest and say this is a war for oil. but i do think that if oil had not been a factor, it wouldnt have mattered to the higher powers as much. and im not saying that it is a bad thing either. we have oil interests in the area, why nto protect them while helping out lots of iraqis?
