As I said, I don't want war with anyone unless it's absolutely needed. I said I'd rather go to war with Iraq over North Korea if I was forced to pick one.
Let's frame this forever...

There.


Quote:
Damn right. Why did you guys think I wanted war against the country?
I just wanted to clarify who we were talking about when we said "Sudan."

Quote:
The war in Iraq will fail to bring democracy to the country after we leave.
I agree, very likely. I wish we'd leave now.

Quote:
Poverty will never be solved,but that $225 billion certainly wouldn't hurt.
Even if we wouldn't have warred with Iraq, that money, for the most part, wouldn't have been allocated to alleviate poverty.

Quote:
That's my point DJ. I think this intelligence was ignored. Why did it take until we were attacked to make a terror level chart or take extra measures?
I don't. Why did it take so long? Because there was no precedent; the United States hadn't been attacked since Pearl Harbor in that way.

I find your humour rather unwarrented.

Quote:
Rough enviroment: Mom or Dad left them and one of their parents was a drug abuser. They were forced to get a job and needed to support their family. They're unable to afford college. They turn to drug dealing and various other things. I think you have my point of view wrong here. I don't think big time drug dealers (how about Tony Montana as an example) should get looked upon. I think people just trying to savage money to live deserve more then one chance. Unfortunately, it's the other way around in our society.
Okay, I can see your point here. Like I said, the penal system should take into account such things, but at the same time, should still punish the convicted party regardless, in accordance with statues on the crime committed.

Which is why it needs to be a tad bit edited.
Millions and millions of people warrents a slight fix?

Since we've only gone back and forth, what would you suggest for fixes? I'm interested to hear your thoughts on this.

Quote:
Um. Do you realize that these women have to live with their descision the rest of their life? I highly, highly doubt that it gets off their mind.
Clearly it's not bothering the 1.31 million (source: USA today) women who are still committing murder annually in the United States alone.

Quote:
Because I don't allow my religion to impact my beliefs on the public and society.
Well what beliefs is it supposed to bloody well affect then? The ones you hide in your room?

Quote:
My religion is my business and my religion only comes into effect when it isn't effecting anyone else but me.
Again, I don't oppose abortion because I am a Catholic, though it involves my faith in my case. My belief in this case is, sans the aforementioned religion, is ethical and scientific, both of which clearly indicate that abortion is murder.

Quote:
So that means you supported John Kerry on promoting contraception among teens, rather then Bush's method of promoting abstinence among teens?
w00t. Am I supposed to have a heart attack because , coincidentally, John Kerry and I agree on something?

Wow. I think hell is frozen over now.

:rolleyes:

Quote:
Michael Moore is patriotic and loves his country.
Again, I find this wholly laughable. I think he should move someplace else and see if he is able to make a documentary against that government...maybe Singapore perhaps.

He enjoys the personal freedom to disagree with his government, not slander said institution.
