supldys Posted February 18, 2005 Report Share Posted February 18, 2005 d3caps, The problem is not what you believe. The problem is your infantile way of displaying it. Quit with the childish display. If you do believe the reason North Korea is developing nuclear weapons, and whether or not they can reach North America, is because of our president, then you can say that. Everything else is unnecessary and devalues your credibility. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest d3caps Posted February 18, 2005 Report Share Posted February 18, 2005 so the real problem here isnt the manner in which my statement was presented, it is that I am not adhering to your double standard, correct? Since the claim before that post was in regard to the leader of a country other than the US, it is not "infantile?" It's ok to refer to any head of state in a derogatory fashion as long as they arent the head of THIS state? Gotcha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supldys Posted February 18, 2005 Report Share Posted February 18, 2005 not at all, like i said its nothing about what you belive. You can believe what you want. You could have simply said "no i believe bush is the loose cannon." Instead of changing the meaning of the previous post in your favor. I've seen lots of times where a child will ask for a toy, candy, or something like that and the parent will say "no." But the child will insist and say "yes?" pretending that the parent said "yes" but not because they actually heard that, but because they hope their persistance will cause the parent to give in. This may work on other children but not on adults. Once again, nothing about what you believe and what I believe, and i hope you can see that. I just think you need a better presentation.

iwishiwascool Posted February 18, 2005 Report Share Posted February 18, 2005 And PS. "Kim Jong Ill to the max", as crazy of sucker as he is wont ever lauch missles anywhere near the general direction of Europe or The US. Nuclear weapons provide power, power provides respect, respect provides leverage in all aspects of becoming a "Superpower" which is what China, India, Pakistan, and the like all wish to achieve. The arms race now, like it was before is less about the ability to anhiliate your enemy but the enemy's fear of your ability to do so.

Guest d3caps Posted February 18, 2005 Report Share Posted February 18, 2005 I think I did say Bush is a loose cannon, and that his supporters are idiots. so exactly what is the problem here? The bush administration edits peoples words and presents things outside of their intended context all the time, so why cant I? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This happened in 2000, when Bush squeaked by in Florida, and lost the popular vote. so you are saying the reactions of the democrats in 04 would have mirrored the reactions of republicans in 00?

They would have been arguing that since Kerry had the majority of electoral votes that he should be pres, even though they felt completely different 4 years ago when they were on the other side. Was it that difficult a concept to grasp? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest d3caps Posted February 18, 2005 Report Share Posted February 18, 2005 im not a fan of hypocrisy or double standards on either side, which is one reason i am neither republican nor democrat. I do believe that the entire electoral system is in need of a massive overhaul, so that there will not be as many "what ifs" regarding the results.

The way it's set up works fairly, so that smaller states can have a chance to make a difference, rather than a small number of populous states (Cali, New York) can control the vote every year. Answer this: 5 states vote unanimously for candidate A. The remaining 45 states vote unanomously for candidate B. The first 5 states population is equal to that of the smaller 45 states. Which candidate should win? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest d3caps Posted February 19, 2005 Report Share Posted February 19, 2005 to be quite honest, the person with the popular vote should win, regardless of an area's population. one person, one vote. However, I never said electoral college, I said electoral system. This meaning that they should go to a uniform paper ballot for the entire country, and have 2 independent parties count, then recount the results.

The people in one area live their lives differently than people in another area. If i shot a gun off my back porch in dublin, id be in jail, but if i shot my gun off the back porch in some desolate place in montana, itd be time for dinner. Thats why the current electoral system works, gives power to the smaller states as well as the larger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You wouldnt go to jail for leading a different lifestyle, you would go to jail for being a retard and shooting a gun off in a populated area. I have had the "privilege" of growing up in an area where I COULD walk outside and shoot a gun off anytime I wanted without fear of repercussions. The people who live in those areas dont need to be voting anyway, trust me... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
