READ THIS FUCK HE'S A LOSER!:

FUCK AMERICA DEFINETLY NEEDS TO GET PRIORITIES STRAIGHT!

November 5th: a sad day in American history.

November 6th: the beginning of the end.

For the first time since the Eisenhower years in the 1950's, one party controls the White House, the Senate, and the House of Representatives. Bush can now do whatever the fuck he wants for the next 2 years, and there's really nothing any of us can do about it. What the fuck is the matter with the American public? This was one of the lowest voter turnouts ever and I guess people are more concerned with what's happening on the Osbournes than how our country is falling apart. 2 million people lost their jobs in the past 2 years, unemployment has risen 35% since Bush took office, the stock market is down 34%, the US surplus of 281 billion dollars has turned into a deficit of 157 billion dollars, and it looks like we're gonna go to war with a country.

Well I'm completely distraught over the outcome of yesterdays election, but I also realize that if we don't start to seriously organize and get our shit together by 2004, all will be lost. 2 years is a long time and will probably be a disaster, but 6 more years of a Bush regime will be a worldwide catastrophe. Actually it will probably only take 2 years, but I'm trying to be optimistic. So hold on to your seat and get ready for more terrorism, more war, more oil drilling, more pollution, more companies cashing out, more worldwide hatred of Americans, more police, more prisons, more wars on drugs, more isolationism, etc.

At least we will be seeing a lot less of certain things. Less media coverage of what's really going on in the world (if that's even possible), less jobs, less civil rights, less human rights, less gun control, less medicare, less social security, less election reforms, less countries Americans will be safe in, less prosperity, and a whole lotta less freedom. I guess for Bush, less is more.

Yes things are looking really bad, but unlike Bush, we now have a real enemy that we can find, and we have 2 years to figure out how to get rid of the Bitch. Hey, and if that doesn't work I know some great people down in Australia. The beer is pretty good and there seems to be plenty of room in the outback for all of us. They even speak English.

Fat Mike

We ain't licked yet! Just because the self-proclaimed 'party of God' has taken power, doesn't mean we're gonna lie down and let the bastards ruin the world. It's OUR job to hold OUR representatives responsible for their actions, and the best way to do that is to be informed, involved, and active citizens. Check back often for news and updates on how we can make a positive change!

AND THIS!:

Cripes! Der Fuhrer, Bush Jr., has called on his SS to stamp out some kid who had the audacity to have his own opinion. A highschool student in Ohio was questioned by both the FBI and Secret Service for wearing one of our much-reviled 'Not My President' shirts. Shit, we didn't believe it either, but click here to see for yourself. I think it was Propagandhi who put it best: 'I can hear the goose-steps getting closer...'

You're a fucking moron. He doesnt even write the speeches. He has a team of people for that. Stop fucking saying 'Bush' is doing everything, its the entire American government. Until you understand how the US Govt. works, you shouldn't be allowed to fucking talk. So just shut the fuck up already.

even though he doesn't do all the thinking, it's still bush that is in power.. if gore was in power, and he legally should be, it would be a completely different world.

 
i think when people say 'bush' they do realise that it really means the entire governemnt, but it is quicker to say 'bush'

and yes, he is a fucker.

 
All I have to say is that there have been numerous studies done on President's IQ's and Bush Jr. is the dumbest President in the history of the U.S. And for the record, Clinton was the smartest.

clinton was the smartest? ever hear of ronald reagan?

so you dumb shits want gore in the whitehouse? wtf? he's a little pussy who would back down from anything! what do u mean gore should legally be in the whitehouse? if that's the case, why did gore back down from the election during the recount?

it doesn't matter who the fuck is in the whitehouse. people are still gonna piss and moan about their government without a doubt!

yea, bush is a fucking dick. he lives for death and is the biggest threat to world peace. he has the power to do anything he wants right now also. and this affirmative action thing really pisses me off. THE COLLEGE IS TRYING TO MAKE THE CAMPUS DIVERSE. IF 9% of our country is black 9% of colleges should be too. bush is a racist too if you want my opinion.

theres a natural mystic flowing through the air if you listen carefully now you will hear. its the first trumpet calling. might as well be the last. many more will have to suffer many more will have to die dont ask me why. things are not the way they used to be.
 
bush rigged the election so that typically liberal voting americans would have their democratic right to vote taken away. i posted about this previously somewhere else, but pipe munky, if u really want me to type it again, i suppose i could. it wasn't that gore backed down, it was that bush declared victory before he was actually given the victory. once this occured, there was very little gore could do to stop bush.. also, he most likely realized that bush had rigged it, so there was very little chance he would have been able to do anything to stop bush and his blue collar army from 'winning'. with gore as president, there would be no war on iraq, and the fundamental inequalities between the upper and lower classes would hopefully have already begun to be abridged. but now....... who's to say what will happen.

 
Hmmm actually there's stuff to say he's not the dumbest president in American History. If you do a ratio like this (Gore's IQ/SAT score) = (Bush's IQ/SAT score) you can find a proportional IQ score (because Bush has never taken one, and Gore has. And that IQ for Bush is actually equivalent to what Kennedy was tested at. I made that post LONG ass time ago with the actual numbers. If anyone doubts it I will go find it *shudder*.

 
Lagwagon, my friend, you are on to more than you know. Throughout history, all ''great'' civilizations have eventually fallen. The one preoccupation of the people of these civilizations has been entertainment. I belive that the USA is approaching that critical point. In fifty years, the country will be a fraction of what it is now. Look at Greece, look at Rome, do the research and you'll see. Peace.

Just because Rome fell doesn't mean the USA will fall, you have to look at the reasons Rome fell. Essentially it was the inability of the nation states to unify under a single body to fight off invaders. Rome fell because it was a decentralized body who also had an inability to gain any allegiance from its conquered terrotories, and if not allegiance, wasn't able to control the disruptions effectively the lack of allegiance and control caused.

Ok, Alpentalik, I'm off to find that post.

 
Ok Gore had an SAT score of 1355, and tested an IQ of 135. Bush scored a 1206 on the SAT (didn't realize they stopped assigning scores that weren't factors of 5 anyway...). Therefore doing that ratio, you get a Bush IQ of 119. And this is what Kennedy tested at. If you read on the internet about Bush having an IQ of 91, that's bullshit. It's an internet hoax, and it's been acknowledged by the major presses that it is purely an internet hoax. President bush's IQ score is actually in the 16th percentile of college students. Shit, I scored higher than Gore on the IQ and SAT test, maybe I should be president. Anyway, that was for Alpentalik.

 
it doesnt matter how high your IQ is. you can still be an idiot if you have a high IQ, Bush proves this really well

I think that TAK is right, even if history doesn't neccissarily mean that it's going to repeat itself, it certainly puts the odds right against America.

And Andy, no matter how the US gorverment works (which it pretty much doesn't). Bush is still the most powerful person in that gorvernment.

Look at the last time America came close to falling. I guess you can say the great depression was an instance like this. But when something like the American economy failed, so did a lot of the western world's. Now anyone who's had a good history course knows that the reason for the Great Depression wasn't just the stockmarket crash. But this didn't keep America from being back to what it was for very long. So history has also shown that an economic disaster isn't going to 'take down' America. America is going to have to be physically ravaged, just like Rome was. But a physical ravaging means an economic ravaging, and there are lot of nations that don't want that to happen besides us.

The following is purely my opinions, and the conclusion are all ''a priori'', that is they are deduced from thought and meditaion based on vague, generalized information. Call me a fool if you will.

The U.S.'s military wasn't shit in the depression compared to now. That's the one imediate clause against colapse that America has. The other is the citizens' apathy and loyality. From what (little) I've seen of Americans' opinion of their goverment compared to Canadians' is dangerously loyal. It would seem that most Americans regard their goverment with the same addoration that young kids have for sports stars. On the other hand, here in Canada, thanks to Trudeau's support of our deviant views in the 70s, most Canadian view the goverment as a group of baffons. The follies of our goverment is exploited on a national, goverment subsidised media corporation, the CBC. Thus it would seem that lower and middle-lower class Americans see little of the goverment's follies. From this, and the 3rd Reich like organized visual presence of the American Federal Goverment forges an awe at their ''pure'' and wholesome American values, creating dangerously loyal support for the goverment actions. While The U.S. goverment does not ban or censor truthful and enlightening information, it would appear they do need to as evident by most American's (and Canadians and European, and rich, white people the world over) apathy for the strugles of the world's impoverished.

'Welcome back Miranda, we have missed you.'

I can only hope that the American 'Empire' will fall, lest the philistines fall futher into the emtionless distopia in American today.

Tim! There you go, demonstrating your particular brand of 'un-knowledge'. Bush is NOT the most powerful person in goverment. There are checks and balances to keep that from happening. The three branches of the American government each check each other to make sure that none get more powerful than the other. Whatever Bush wants has to be approved by Congress, and the Judicial branch has to see that the laws are carried out correctly. Bush is just one part of the executive branch, which includes his Cabinet and other minor officials.

We learn this stuff in 5th grade over here. It's simple.

but when the 3 branches all gain from exercising the same policies, the people that would normally carry out the 'checks and balances' you speak of become less inclined to fullfil their duty.

 
Actually you know what Tim, Andy's right; Bush doesn't have that much power. He can't create his own laws (like in Canada).

Here's how it is (by my understanding):

U.S.A. : Three sepperate branches of goverment (White House, Congress and the Senate) in a system designed (from the begining) to take power from the president. Each branch must approve of a bill before it is passed. And unlike in Canada, the President has no power in Congress.

Canada: The Prime Minister controls his cabinent which is ALWAYS the largest group in the parliment (you know how it works Tim). If the party in power has a majority goverment, then the leader of this party controls the majority of the parliment, the sole holder of power in the goverment, able to pass laws. I assume it is the same in Austrialia and New Zealand.

So, the Prime Minister holds more power in his country than the President in his. However, because the U.S.A. is nine times larger population-wise than Canada, about thirteen-and-a-half times richer, and in power of a military 50 times larger than Canada's. And while George W. Bush may not have as much power as we like to belive, there are others, many others, with similarly objectionable views and goals who are in power. Just a little clarifaction.

Peace.

I can see where tim is coming from. Bush isn't the most powerful man in the government but he certainly gets the most exposure. The thing that pisses me off the most is that Bush isn't listening to the rest of America and the majority of us belive that a war is unnecassary. I think it is about oil and is a personal matter between him and saddam and Bush Sr. Bush Sr. was just too pussy to kill him when we invaded the first time so now Bush feels that it is his job to finish it off regardless of what his country thinks.

 
Andy, Bush is the most powerful person in the world, which makes him, by default, the most powerful person in the U.S. government. He's the president of the country that runs most of the world. And yes there is a system of checks and balances, but it doesn't quite work as well when you have a conservative supreme court and a fully republican congress. But that's the way it is now and we have to make do for another 2 years.

 
This is mostly in response to the 1st post by Lagwagon.

You're forgetting a simple fact of economics. The goverment can only do so much to affect the economy. They found out how damaging it was when the gov't gets involved when they tried to impose price floors and ceilings on things like rent and gas.....they fucked things up bigtime. The real driving force on the economy is the Federal Reserve and how they manipulate the money supply, interest rates, etc. The reason the economy was so good was a result of the Fed's actions and not those of the Clinton Administration. So don't think that Bush fucked things up. The Fed has run things really well for a long time now. Most of the bad shit right now is a result of 9/11/01. And that shit is due to factors the Fed had to react to rather than prepare for.

For the record I think Bush is a fucking idiot and I am definitely not a conservative. But before you go thinking Gore would be better..think about this. And this especially goes to those of you who don't like the cops always fucking with people and think the system sucks. Gore and the rest of the democratic side may seem like they want to do all these things to help everyone. But the fact is that these things will result in a bigger gov't, which means more rules and more people gettin messed with and fucked by the system. Blood Alcohol limits are lower...low enough that you can get a DUI when you feel nothing. The US wanting Canada to make the drinking age 21 for visiting Americans. Hell I tried to fight an expired tabs ticket that I got in my friends car and got screwed. I subpeonad both officers and only one showed. But the court said that was ok and I could continue or reschedule for a date when the officer could be present. But you and I can't get out of a subpeona and they're supposed to dismiss any cases where the cops don't show for court. So if any of you think that kind of shit is cool...vote for people who will make you feel good and give you something right here, right now, and fuck you 10 years down the road. Don't believe the hype.

-Death to the EPFC! A scourge upon your lines for generations to come!
 
Andy, you're being foolish. Of course there are freakin' checks on the government and it's leaders, I never said there wasn't, no one did say that. If there wasn't checks in place then the leader could do whatever the hell he wanted. But the president still does have the final say. And don't try tell me he doesn't, the political leader or 'president' still decides to pass laws on to the Governer General or Congress, it still all goes through him, or else he wouldn't be there would he, maybe you should go back and check out 5th grade again.

The president does not have 'final say' the only thing he can do is Veto a bill, which Congress can easily overturn. The only possible thing he can do is influence his party. And we know that most of the time, the opposing party wants NOTHING to do with what Bush wants, so that leaves almost half of Congress which doesnt want a bill passed. All it takes is a few independants or Republicans to switch sides, and Bush has no power.

And As far as I know, there is no position of 'Governer General' in the US Congress.

Yo, just whipped this off a news site, thought it was kinda interesting:

Anti-war protests worldwide ahead of key Iraq talks

19 January 2003

WASHINGTON: Protesters opposed to war on Iraq gathered for mass demonstrations around the world today as UN arms chiefs travelled to Baghdad to tell its leaders cooperation was the only way to avoid armed conflict.

With Washington massing troops and equipment in the Gulf and Iraq declaring itself mobilised for battle, thousands of demonstrators in the United States, Britain, Japan, France, Syria, Russia, Italy, Yemen, Ireland, Cyprus and Pakistan took to the streets to say 'no' to war.

'There's been too much capital invested in this war for it not to happen. But we're making our position clear, we're saying 'no'. There are people speaking out on this all over the world now, and we're part of it,' said Adam Conway, 24, an activist living at a peace camp near Shannon Airport in Ireland.

US President George W Bush has said he will lead a 'coalition of the willing' to force Iraq to give up its alleged weapons of mass destruction if Baghdad does not co-operate with UN arms inspectors.

US Secretary of State Colin Powell told a German daily that Washington believed by the end of January there would be 'a persuasive case' Iraq was not cooperating.

The White House has also seized on the discovery of empty chemical warheads in Iraq as evidence of noncompliance, calling the weapons cache 'serious and troubling', though UN weapons chief Hans Blix played down the significance of the find.

Pleading for the White House to back down and let inspections run their course, tens of thousands of people were expected to protest in Washington and San Francisco on Saturday in the largest anti-war demonstrations since Bush began making a case against Iraq last year.

'Bush has said that he intends to launch a pre-emptive war, and now he's facing the most formidable obstacle, which is a pre-emptive anti-war movement,' said Washington lawyer Mara Verheyden-Hilliard, who is helping to organise the protests.

UN arms experts pushed ahead with their intensified search for banned weapons in Iraq on Saturday, inspecting mobile laboratories, state companies and colleges.

Blix and International Atomic Energy Agency Director-General Mohamed ElBaradei are due in Baghdad on Sunday for two days of talks aimed at averting war.

The weapons chiefs, who were due to arrive in Cyprus on Saturday before heading for Iraq, have said Iraq has opened doors to inspectors but has not been 'proactive' enough.

They have also said gaps exist in Iraq's 12,000-page weapons declaration submitted to the United Nations in December.

'There is not yet confidence, there is not yet certainty that all the chemical and biological weapons and missiles are gone and that all the equipment is gone. And it is above all for Iraq to demonstrate that everything has been done away with,' Blix said in Paris on Friday.

ElBaradei added: 'That is the clear message we are sending to Baghdad next week. Co-operate and there is a positive outcome for you, and if you do not, unfortunately the consequences will not be very pleasant.'

On January 27, Blix and ElBaradei are due to deliver a key report to the UN Security Council on what inspectors have found since returning to Iraq in November after a four-year absence.

The United States has called that 'an important date' and while maintaining no decision has been made to go to war Washington has also said it would not need a second UN resolution to authorise war with Iraq if it is found to be in material breach of UN Resolution 1441, which cleared the way for the return of inspectors.

With the clock ticking on a possible war with Iraq, those opposed to an attack have mobilised with a new sense of urgency.

In Britain, Washington's staunchest ally against Iraq, demonstrations were planned in London, Birmingham, Manchester and Nottingham.

Egyptian demonstrators planned a second day of protests in Cairo calling on their government to prevent US and British warships from using the Suez Canal.

Thousands of Japanese gathered in central Tokyo to protest a possible war in Iraq and in the Pakistani city of Rawalpindi, a few thousand people formed a human chain to condemn any US-led attack.

In France, where President Jacques Chirac said a unilateral attack by Washington on Iraq would violate international law, left-wing parties, trade unions and peace groups planned to hold demonstrations in Paris and several provincial cities.

And in Cyprus, anti-war demonstrators were gathering signatures.

'We believe a war will take place. The UN inspectors are Bush and (British Prime Minister Tony) Blair's fig leaf for an attack and let's not kid ourselves, their main interests are Iraq's oil reserves,' Phaedonas Vassiliades said.

Tim was making the link between the heads of states of your countries(him having a govenor general, you having a president). Being the president he is also commander in chief of Americas armed forces, hence him being world's most powerfull man. Yes there are checks and balances, and no systems are perfect, but with a clean sweep in his house it's much easier to pass conservative bills. And with Bush acting as a 'moderate' i doubt any in his party will find his bills too radical to disagree with.

Shit, in Canada the Governor General's only power is her choice of what hole she gets it in.

Now Cretin, uhhhh, make that Cretian is our almighty high ruler. But Bush got the whip on his ass so I guess you could say that

Bush has more power in Canada than in his own country.

What bothers me more about this whole thing is the fact that we are so self centered on both sides. If you want to see what the hell is really happening, dont go to ABC News or whatever, watch the BBC. They arent sponsored by government money and even the british government has gotten angry with them for running controversial stories in the past.

Realize what your bitching is accomplishing.

Thats all i have to say on this whole thing.

If you really feel one way or another, go out and march.

C_lo, you're right that degrees don't breed intelligence. But intelligence is not indicative of being educated. Someone can have a lot of raw thinking ability, but they haven't been exposed to information that is critical for knowledge on a particular topic. And this is what makes Fat Mike not as much of an expert as a historian, or political scientist. Citing Fat Mike, in my opinion, is just like citing any person on this board or your parents, but trying to put them on this pedastol as an expert is just not very smart, seriously.
