Don't waste your time, go ahead and start your thread G-tech, no one is going to answer that crap in this one about WW3
We are still waiting for you to enlighten us on how the war is not over oil. Go ahead and start your thread before Saddam starts the oil wells on fire again
That would be: SiteTutor, Debunked and I Using "Me" first often refects that you think higher of yourself than others. If I hear from them, perhaps, otherwise, I'd prefer to taunt you here
You can include me on that list of 'we' + maybe michael moore who seems to be able to say what he wants and his film not be banned..
I have yet to see anything in his posts that mentions being a Republican, or propaganda. I suppose if I got my news and current events from a film, or the NY Times I might think like you do. Personally I like to rely on the facts. I'd really need to see some factual evidence of this "fraud" you are talking about to make a conscious decision either way about the validity of your claims. Just because you say it, does not make it so. Did you ever go outside in the morning and take a walk? Look at the trees, the sky, the animals and people in your neighborhood and think, "life is too short to be so negative." Try it some time. The world is as good or bad as you make it in your mind. Enjoy a little of it and relax. Bush will be gone in 4 short years and you no doubt have someone else to complain about. That or you can complain about 8 years of Bush/Cheney. We finally got away from the 12 years thing. Time will put an end to the debate in the long run, and there will be something new to bitch about. Personally, I find the negative, bleak and otherwise dismal commentary a bit droll. You don't like Bush, America sucks, we are greedy, oil this, HaliWhoGivesAS$%t, life sucks, it's the end... It's getting old. Relax...
I really do not want to be one to change the subject as well, but I offer this one time. Anthony (my middle name, we have that in common), if you can explain to me exactly what started the Gulf War (the first one), I will pubically announce that your opinions are 100% fact all the time. It's risky, I know.. But what have I got to lose. Hint: There is only one answer to this question.
- I can only really see it getting old when people stop dying, until then I think the scrutiny is a good thing, biased or not. No one in this forum can really know the 'facts' the only people that could are those that were involved.
You missed my point. It's the complaining that's getting old. Not the events that continue to unfold. Complaining and pointing fingers (especially when, as you pointed out, we are all not in the know) does not solve a thing.
antnony, I think you need to stop FORCING people to read your posts. Gtech, I don't think you're interested in facts. Something tells me that facts don't make any difference in the way you feel. Your mind is set and the blinders are in-place. You're basically repeating sound bites you've picked up from TV.
if you guys think Anthony will stop .. think again. I just had to agree to disagree with him, forever that is
I did not say he was trying to solve anything. I merely commented on the fact that complaining all the time really does not fix anything. It is quite counter productive. Usually when one informs someone, they present a set of facts and let them decide based on those facts. Expressing an opinion as fact is something that is quite the opposite. In any event I value any opinion. I have an open mind. I like to look at everything, facts, opinions, debate, then make my own decision and form my own opinion. Of course my "opinion" is no more fact than anyone else's. Example: Fact: "it was 45 degrees today" Opinion: "man it was cold as hell" So I have the fact, ie., the National Weather Service, my thermometer, whatever says "it was 45 degrees". Someone's opinion of the temperature was that it was "cold as hell". I might think it was "rather balmy", still someone else may feel it was "hot". These are opinions all based on a common thing; FACT. The fact that different people garner a different opinion of the temperature is something entirerly different. So if I say it was "cold as hell", that does not mean it was really "cold as hell". It may be a fact that 45 degrees to some is cold as hell, but not all. Am I right? No. Am I wrong? I really don't think there is an answer for that. But what about me saying it was hot, while someone else argues it was cold. We both know the fact, ie., "it was 45 degrees today". Once we start our debate does the "fact" really matter? Just think of how boring life would be if we all agreed.
I'm interested in how you've come to the conclusion about the war being for oil and I'm intrigued why you chose to avoid any commentary that might give insight to such a broad claim. One might surmize that you are prepared to make such statement, but when questioned about it, attempt to turn your response into an attack. If you feel anything I've presented is not factual, I welcome you to dispute it. If all you have is "blinders, sound bytes, wouldn't know the truth." Well, thanks, but those are a dime a dozen. I prefer someone who can really debate and stand behind their positions.
Anthony is funny. I have a hard time believing anyone could be that naive about world affairs, but I suspect there is something deeper there. Way deeper. I do prefer a good debate, but tits for tats are fun sometimes too.
