        • "How much time did it take you to type out a dissertation filled with crap"

          You call it "crap" but you fail to back up your own position, resorting instead to slogans, illogic, irrational statements, and witty quotes. If you cannot use reason to justify your position, then you may use such frivolous means to justifiy it to yourself, but it loses any validity an any objective context.

          • I do, too.
            Don't let that get in the way of a juicy debate, though.

                • Actually, Liberty is dog-ass ugly.
                  It's what she represents that's beautiful.

                  • Debate? Slanging match!! I have yet to find someone who supports this war who can back up his position in an intelligent reasoned way! Says something about the strength and validity of that argument!

                    • Elijah, That post was too long to digest.

                      However, is it your position that the people of Iraq do not want liberty?

                        That's an amazing rewriting of history. You taking lessons from the Iraqi minister of Information? We handed Indochina back to the French because we felt that France needed to retain their empire in order to better resist communism. Britain didn't decolonize because it wanted to do so. In Palestine, in India, in Africa, in Malaysia, Britain was faced with anti-colonial struggles. Half of Britain's overseas troops were in Palestine. Israel was Britain's "Vietnam" and there was simply no way they could hold on to India if they decided to stop listening to Ghandi, so they just cut the best deal they could get. Some fights Britain won, some they lost, but they didn't just decolonize because of the US.
