To paraphase a point of his I agree with. Rest of the world: Hey US, do you want to help us reduce greenhouse emittions, get rid of land mines and set up a permanent world court, kind of like the one you help set up a Nurenburg?
US: Go f@#$ yourselves.
Rest of the world: Gosh!
Sept. 11
US: You better help US find these terroists or you're diddlyed.
Rest of the world: Gosh, Okay buddy.
How long do you think these states of affairs will last.
PS: I particularly like my use of emoticons in this post.
f@$# u thrawn..
and yas i edited your cuss out of the quote too...
did the US drop all the landmines that are
ruining the world?
is the US the only source of polution in the world?
is the US the policeman of the globe? (wait don't answer that.. i forgot most.. pinko liberals pushed us into that role
'cause it was
the right thing to do[/I]
who has the US asked for help in on the problem of illiteracy?
who has the US asked for help in on the problem of poverty?
who has the US asked for help in on the problem of.. any other homeland issue? (other than the war on terrorism)
you can keep all your socialist thoughts and propoganda and shove them u know where.
you want help from the US in any matter.. what are you gonna give us for our time, money and personal?
i'd rather see 1000 soldiers die for a cause that DIRECTLY affects us.. than 1 die for a pathetic charity cause.
since the begining of civilized society it has all been about free trade. you want something... what do you have to give for it?
IMO if we ask the other countries of this planet for help combating a virus/scourge of the world it is repayment for all that we have given to this planet.
