Yup, yup, when all else fails, get into the personal insults. Just about what I've come to expect from you, Bubba...

Well, let’s say I could not find any information about all these “innocent Iraqi citizens” we have been “supposedly” killing on Fox, CNN, ABC, or CBS websites. CNN, ABC and CBS are typically liberal leaning web sites and Fox is moderate with a touch of conservative.

Therefore one can conclude these killings of thousands you talk about are myth spinned out of control by the extreme liberal propaganda sites you post. You can not honestly sit there and state if this was indeed true that CNN, ABC, nor CBS would not have major reports on it, could you?

Now I could be wrong and perhaps you can find this story on CNN, ABC or CBS websites and could post us some links?

Oh, and the BBC does not count, they too are extremely socialist liberal leaning propaganda which is not considered main stream media…

Good thing I don't fall into the "most people" category. Besides, how would you know what most people think? You seem to be limited to what you are being fed by all the liberal propaganda you go sifting through for your weak assed arguments. You don't seem to have an opinion that somebody else didn't give to you.

Does someone's (arrbilly) opinion who is from "Beautiful British Columbia" even count? Arrbilly, leave the fighting to the country who protects your *** as well as your country. I will admit, Canada is a tough, when is comes to hockey.

Yeah, he's a tough nut to swallow, but don't rag all Canadians. I know there are more than a few that think Canada has a messed up representation right now.

It's funny though that the ones that complain about how arogant, racist, etc. Americans are run around calling us "F'n stupid yanks" and crap. I've heard it a few times over voice chat while playing online. Then some various message boards come up with more colorful expressions. A lot of the Europeans do the same crap. I hear things like "well Americans are stupid so they don't count" etc. Again, there's good ones and bad ones everywhere. It just seems the bad ones are more vocal about it.

Amen to that statement. Wish we could do away with the "stupid" Americans. But then what gauge would we use to measure all of us smarter ones? Once we cull out the stupid ones, that just means some of us are getting closer to the stupid end of the spectrum than we were prior to the weeding out process.

Damn straight

Very good point that many people overlook.
It's especially bennificial to have several stupid people at your place of employment, and I'll tell you why...

When you and you're buddies are scamming, sneaking out early, coming in late, doing things that would otherwise get you in trouble...

It's the truly stupid people who steal ALL the attention and keep the heat off your sorry ***.

Another free tip I will give youse all....
When at your wqork, try to work with the stupid people as much as possible.
1) You can get away with murder as I already mentioned, and
2) Even if you're not that smart, when your entire crew is stupid *****, it makes you look that much smarter.

Ghostbusters?


Back to the original subject. There will always be bad apples and things will never change. Just as there are always those who exploit the bad apples for all they can.

That still does not excuse what the soldiers did. As I've said before, we are walking a fine line when dealing with Iraq.

On one side we have to be firm and stand our ground, being the enforcer. But the other side is that we have to be real careful in making that happen so that we don't step over the line, if we do cross it then we are no better then Saddam and the world sees that.

The soldiers that tortured those men must be held accountable and the military must push and make it known that they do not condone those actions.
