  1. Futurama, SeaLab 2021, Aqua Teen Hunger Force, The Oblongs, Mission Hill, Home Movies, and the Brak Show are f***ing fantastic. Invader Zim is also really good. And if you have seen the 6 episodes, Clerks the animated series is goddamn funny. And if you guys like anime, Cowboy Bebop is the s***.
  2. I have been told by a group that I needed to "get some guts and go fight" to which I responded "Are you all enlisted?" (the men were college age) and they said "No." so I told them, "If this war is so important and you believe so strongly, go get enlisted and put your life on the line for it." After which they shut the f*** up and walked away because they realized they were f***ing hypocrites. So because I dealt with that one group that was a bunch of hypocrites, I can then safely assume that the entire pro-war movement is a bunch of hypocrites. It's your overgeneralizations that promote ignorance and moronic behavior. Think before you generalize next time. If you want the truth about the anti-war movement, ask me. Or better yet, look at the BBC or the Guardian or the Observer etc.
  3. I am more worried about Kim Jong Il. I am more worried about Osama bin Laden and Al Qaeda cells. Myabe it's just me but I'd rather focus the nation's attention on the men who perpetrated the worst terrorist attack on American soil. I am not worried about some 3rd world dictator who we aren't even sure has weapons. Yes, I feel bad for the people who live under oppressive UN sanctions. But I ask you, if the people in the region haven't been afraid of him for the past 12 years, why is the world's only superpower shaking in it's boots? With the lies perpetrated by this administration justifying a war, with the future propaganda for Al Qaeda, for us disrupting peace and Middle Eastern relations for years, etc. etc. etc. plus the human lives and the devestation caused...the cost of this war is too great. We don't have enough money for schools but we suddenly have $80 billion for war? That is just the beginning stages. Can we say TAX HIKE when we get to the $1 trillion deficit mark? Will you still be supporting this action years in the future when we are still paying out the ass for it when we have our troops over there for the next 15-20 years restabilizing their government. And wouldn't it be a kick in the nuts if in their "democratic" (since we want them to have a democracy) if they elected Islamic fundamentalists into government? Would we have to foot another $80 billion to overthrow that regime too? Where does this end? We set the international precent for pre-emptive invasions for our own national interest. What is to stop any other country from doing that now? We've created a very dangerous slippery slope.
  4. We are invading Iraq to prove to them that they cannot dismiss the UN...Meanwhile, we are dismissing the UN. We are going to prove to them that they cannot kill civilians. Yet we shot a missile into a marketplace today killing over 50 people ( http://www.iraqbodycount.net ) We also had the plans for urban warfare which is going to slaughter LOTS of civilians. Tell me again, we SUSPECT this guy has weapons and we are invading. Yet countries like North Korea have come out and said "WE HAVE NUKES!" "WE HAVE MISSILES THAT CAN HIT THE STATES!" and Dubya does nothing. If he was really worried about 'homeland security' he'd deal with that. Or what about Pakistan who is run by a dictatorship that is harsh to it's people and has the nuke? There are lots of other countries that are much more evil than Saddam could ever wish to be. This is just a case of Bush wanting a war no matter what because it'd help his popularity...and think of all that oil for Halliburton and the Chevron ties that Condie Rice has. They are going to cleanup damn good in this. Saddam is evil, yet the cost of this war is too great. Money says that the next terrorist attack comes and we find out that it was due to our imperialism in the Middle East. How much do you want to be that our next attack comes against Iran? We have a history of installing and overthrowing governments there so it wouldn't be too much of a stretch. And many of the corporate news stations are trying to justify war with Iraq because of his gassing of the Kurds in 1988. Let's see WE SOLD HIM THE f***ING WEAPONS TO DO IT! and afterwards, Rumsfeld even shook the man's hand! And we are fighting a war for what happened that long ago? Talk about stretching for an actual reason. And why has the reason for war consistantly changed right after the reason was found to be blatant bulls***? The reason for war has changed so much from the beginning of the Bush campaign to wage war. I guess it's easy to wage war when you're not the one fighting, eh, AWOL Georgie? :fyou And RPS, did you think the Iraqi army was just going to lay down and let their country be taken over? They know they are outgunned, outmanned, etc. so they are doing what they can militarily to have a chance. Not saying that I agree with it because it is a sickening desperate maneuver but I can understand WHY they would be doing it.
  5. outstanding, i knew you will see it that way. the best thing is to take him out. That entire thing about making me sick was about George Warmonger Bush. Saddam is evil, but Bush's war is fascist and illegal.
  6. http://www.time.com/time/covers/1101030331/wroad.html Long, but a good read. Absolutely sickening that he was planning this for so damn long. He wasn't open to the UN peaceful solutions, he had plans to be a war criminal the entire time. That little west Texas bastard. :fyou George. Who would have thought the W stood for Warmonger?
  7. http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=stor...urkey_hijacking The jet wants to go to Berlin from Greece. I wonder who hijacked it. They say it's just one man in the cockpit. I read this story a few times....after getting past the obvious part of this news story, I found it kind of pathetic that I knew who Venizelos was (the guy they named the Greek airport after.)
  8. Thanks for avoiding the point... again. I said we train people to kill other human beings and that has to have some sort of obvious desensitizing effect. We've just been DAMN LUCKY that we haven't had MORE people snap and do domestic terrorism like McVeigh did. Just like people said after 9/11, we are living in a "new world". No. We aren't living in a new world. We just finally joined the other nations that have been rocked by terror attacks.
  9. Joe, I don't have flowers in my hair. But it is nice to hear from you. Did anybody else hear that John Ashcroft and DEA agents went out and raided Tommy Chong's house and his glass pipe business recently under Operation Pipe Dreams and Ashcroft's crackdown on drugs and paraphenalia. Chong was NOT arrested and NOT charged, but he had all his stuff legally stolen from him. I've said it a lot....but I will say it again........ f*** ASHCROFT!
  10. The Corporate News Network (CNN) said that it was likely a 'silkworm' missile, NOT a Scud. No injuries reported because it was 1:45 am when it hit. The mall was completely empty. It was a very elite shopping center.
  11. http://www.guardian.co.uk/Iraq/Story/0,276...,924907,00.html Happened to be the first link I went to the Guardian. Still looking for the Sheridan story to be confirmed.
  12. On another note, I have seen news reports that at least 50 are dead after an Allied missile went into a Baghdad marketplace. Anybody help me confirm this possible civilian slaughter?
  13. Not so much Tipper, she and her Republican friends like Rev. Jeff Ling are the PMRC music Nazis. Joe is a member of the Parents' TV Council but it is headed up by an extreme right wing uber-Christian Republican L. Brent Bozell III (this guy's dad worked in the Goldwater campaign and thought that nuking the Russians was a great idea...How Christian of this guy!) Lieberman is just a token member. And calling Lieberman a Democrat is almost laughable. Sure he's got the party name but this guy is so far to the right. L. Brent Bozell III is also noted for calling pro wrestler, the Rock a white supremacist...only problem is that Rock is 1/2 black
  14. God forbid anybody would want to change the status quo of America and *gasp* maybe make it a safer, more secure place!
  15. I'm with you there 100% mooch..... but Moore's backers here pointed out to me that he is perfectly within his rights to profit on the corpses of 13 dead HS teenagers. America..... you gotta love it..... even though the one's that pointed out to me that Moore was within his rights to profit on the Columbine Tragedy trash America more than they defend it. Bush is using the corpses of 9/11 to justify whatever the f*** he wants to do. I think that's worth a little bit more than the few millions that Moore made on his film. But don't blame me, I got it off the internet And there actually is a large group of 9/11 Families and Friends for Peace and Justice which are totally outraged with Bush using their deceased friends and relatives as a justification for whatever the f*** he wants to do. They are all opposed to war in Iraq as well. If we had a Congress that passed some sort of legitimate gun control laws (cuz you have agreed with me previously CK that citizens shouldn't really have Tech 9 automatic assault rifles that serve no purpose other than to completely obliterate anything that moves) then we wouldn't really have as many children going into schools with assault rifles, etc. because it would be harder to get them. But the gun control lobby won't hear any of that. So be angry at Congress, not Moore.
  16. Granted the CIA has said a lot of things that are evil before...but if they say that they can't find a tie, I am pretty eager to believe them because this is a rare time when they may be actually telling the truth.
  17. Cartoon Network is the bastion of all good cartoons...especially Adult Swim. And those aren't made by Republicans And it's not liberal groups getting shows like Family Guy taken off the air. It's groups like the Parents Tevelision Council who are run by ULTRA-conservatives. So don't push this off on the liberals for what some extreme right wingers are trying to do.
  18. The British government has been nailed lying before (their plagiarized dossier used by Powell) in order to try to get public support for this war. Why is this story any different? They've lied so much and tried so much to legitimize this war and they can't. I have a hard time believing the governments especially when our own intelligence says that there is no direct link.
  19. George W. Bush is supposedly "The Education President" yet he is making drastic cuts in education to finance military actions. The GAO said that to fix all the failing schools, it would only take around $212 billion and we can find a s***load of money to build MOABs. It's nice to know where our country's priorities are.
  20. http://www.bartcop.com/libmedia.htm The Liberal Media Myth...exposed.
  21. Just remember...some of these people vote. f***, some of those people even run for President...like Georgie Dubya. http://homepage.mac.com/leperous/PhotoAlbum1.html I think you guys may like these, hehehe.
  22. There should be a law. The United States can't go bomb a country if the majority of Americans cannot point it out on a map. The American media sucks. The American public is so vastly uneducated. It's sickening. We are "the world's superpower" and we have so many uneducated people. It's pretty disheartening. Sure, everybody knows what celebrities are getting divorced etc. etc. etc. but what about the actual things that matter? It's like getting a longer more elaborate version of Provda in the American news today.
