All politicians are corrupt. Even ones you swear would never take bribe money.... are corrupt. If this makes you wankers mad again cause it grinds badly with your politician-worshipping, then get in office and count how few days pass before you see some ****** going around to the cronies of a meeting handing over envelopes of cash. You should try reading something other than the usual, cookie-cutter newsites and the newspapers to learn what really goes on.Here is an interesting scenario to check out. The Vietnam war is cool.

If thats not special I'm not sure what isSpace is big. You just won't believe how vastly, hugely, mind- bogglingly big it is. I mean, you may think it's a long way down the road to the chemist's, but that's just peanuts to space.

he didn't want to would be my guess. Also we didn't really come out of WW1 with anything all that valuable, and we didn't even ratify the treaty ending that war.
yes, Allies didn't win WW1. the Germans were cheated from their victory, they were stabbed in the back.
this isn't holocaust denial, but... ..what?
