    anyway i'm not the president of the US so i got my right be stupid, the president and his administration on the other hand..


    Hey you little Civ kid. we went to the UN. Get over it. WE spent several months on it. Deal with it. We did it.
    Uh yeah, but what does it matter, UN or not, you're going to bomb Iraq anyway, so what's the point. If the UN thinks you shouldn't go to war, then hell you shouldn't go to war!
    I've seen Powell's presentation about all the nuclear programmes Saddam was running, and with all the evidence.... It was a joke, that people were even taking him seriously was kinda surprising to me already! He had no evidence whatsoever.. nothing really

    • "AmerIndian" is a ****** word - comparable to my own inventions of "Floridanish", "ZionaBumhumper" and "MilkMan(ic)Episode"

      • Oh, and let's not forget the fan favorite: "Babylon Jive"

        First person to say "AmerIndian" in my real life travels gets 5 demerits and a fist to the back.

          No, I did not steal that from somebody on Something Awful.

          • In all seriousness, use the name of the tribe if you know it.

              • I'm not familiar with that tribe -- are they in Canada?

                • No but I'm pretty sure no tribe names were ever AMERINDIAN

                  Creating and publicizing that new word makes about as much sense as renaming Chocolate Donuts "ChocolaMuffinRound" because you're an idiot who thinks it rolls nicely

                      • Comrade and Trajan,

                        Yes, we "failed" to get the UN to agree to what we wanted.* But the point was related to the wrong impression that we went to war because of "missiles on the launcher". The danger from Saddaam was not of that imminent sort. Else we would not have waited the several months. That does not mean that the danger was not significant. We've already seen how well ignoring a problem worked in Europe in the 1930's.

                        *They have shown a serious lack of interest in enforcing their own sanctions and restrictions on Iraq...it was only in the dimension of "preventing a war" that they even reintroduced inspectors who had been kicked out since 1998. And hassled from doing their job, the entire time.) But of course this is a seperate issue.

                        • I like Amerind. I think I've seen it even pre-PC. Just that its descriptive. Do you mean the brown ones or the red ones.
