Amadinajad,(however it is spelled) the Iranian President, believes it did not take place. He has similar beliefs to Adolf Hitler and wants Israel destroyed. The Holocaust did indeed happen and he wants to destroy Israel because it is a commonly We have to take that seriously. I'm looking at it for world peace for the long term. That region needs to stay stable and having an unstable Mid East equals higher gas prices which drives everything today. It is a Huge formula that most don't understand. It all has to blend together. We are fighting for our way of life. I like the way I live and I am going to stand up for it until the day I die and I would be honored to die in combat in Iraq, Afganistan, or anywhere for that matter, for the way we live. If you lived under Saddamn then you would be greatful for what the Americans are doing.
There is a lot in there, so i will sum it up the best we can. So if we pull out of iraq, Iran attacks israel? Great, but i don't live in israel, and if israel doesn't want to get attacked then israel should stop pissing off other countries. It's not our job or duty to bail them out. If they want to be dickheads to their neighbors that's their problem now. It is not our job to police the world. If the leader of Iran does not believe in a factual historical event, then he's just a dumbass, it happens.
High gas prices? good maybe it will actually help change a lot of things. Relatively speaking, we have pretty low gas prices, ever been to Europe? Oh that's right in Europe it's not a problem that its like $15 a gallon because they have other methods of transportation.
High gas prices like that also drive technology forward and maybe finally get some jetpacks or something. Sure it hurts in the wallet right now, but now there is a reason to try and get a water car working for example. Generally it's a bad idea to be so dependent on one solitary thing, options are a very good thing. It's the whole supply and demand paradigm just on a larger scale
Quote:I know the Republicans have their regualtions, too, but they don't depend on the government so much in order to function in the everyday world.
What they say and what they do are apparently two very different things. The last bunch of republicans we had in office sure sound a lot like democrats to me based on their actions. Both parties are big government parties no matter how they spin it.
Quote:He's too worried about domestics and not so much on foreign policy which is included in the job of being the president.
We do have to balance it out, we have had nothing but 8 years of foreign policy. We have major domestic troubles that we need to worry about before we can take care of matters elsewhere. What about all the beyond condemned bridges for example?
I would just like to point out, that as i have said before i will not be voting for either because i dont particularly agree with any of them, so i can't in good conscience do that, but i guess i cant wrap my head around your argument correctly so i had to say my part.
