Thanks George and Georgia.........
No, thanks America, including all the little chickenhawk fucks at places like dKos who think spreading our military personnel all over the world is awesome so long as the battles are the ones they want our soldiers to fight.
Team America: World's Police. But what's not to like when it ain't you or your fucking kids with the RPGs pointed at'em? Be nice to America. Or we'll bring democracy to your country.
Not peaches and praline Georgia. And I'll give my consent to any government that does not deny a man a living wage-Billy Bragg
If Americans only knew what was going on, they wouldn't be so down with this.
The sad thing is that even if Obama is elected, this isn't going to change.
Obama had a problem with the Iraq War because he thought it was the wrong war. Not because he though war is wrong.
That's an important difference lost on many of his supporters. And I'll give my consent to any government that does not deny a man a living wage-Billy Bragg
Americans aren't going to know what's going on, because we're involved in so much bullshit around the world that it's impossible to focus them on anything when these conflicts come up except waving flags and justifying anything on grounds of supporting the troops. What exactly do you expect to happen when a society is built on the idea that its job is to manage the world's conflicts with force?
And you're right about Obama. But at least he got it right on something instead of swallowing the Bush administration's collective load simply because they demanded it. Unfortunately the disease is incredibly deep, and it's not helped by the fact that the left is only slightly less clueless on foreign affairs than the right. Be nice to America. Or we'll bring democracy to your country.

Lost on them? Or one they agree with? In the long run, we're all dead. John Maynard Keynes
Then he goes on to sing the "Kazakh anthem" over the notes of the US anthem. Excpet that his words are basically: "Kazakhstan is the greatest country in the world, and all others are shit". Then he starts getting seriously booed.
An amazing scene. In the long run, we're all dead. John Maynard Keynes

But at least boys can't get hitched outside of Massachusetts and California, so the Magical Space Daddy won't be upset. Be nice to America. Or we'll bring democracy to your country.
