    Our elections are the biggest and longest running joke we have.

    What's ironic to me is that these folks to bash America for a "lack of freedom" are the same folks who spazz on people who knock countries like Iran for ... you guessed it ... A lack of freedom.

    I'll agree with the soccer comment in that the sport sucks and is boring. The reason it is not quite popular in the states is we have many important sports going on at the same time like baseball, basketball, and football. Soccer was all the rest of the world had in the beginning, so that is why it is popular. Tell me, how can a fucking game end in a 0-0 tie? What is the point?

    OK. You guys make my head spin. All this political bullshit. Were there really 20+ people planning to use liquid explosives on airplanes from the UK to the USA or is the some kind of diversion to the fighting in the Middle East? I wish we could just get some straight answers. As one who travels for business, it scares the shit out of me when you hear stuff like this. And, when PJ comes back to the US I plan on traveling by plane to their shows if they are far away from the Midwest. I don't care what is going on, I'm going to the damn Pearl Jam show. Fuck'em all!

    I've had way too many drinks and this just pisses me off!

    Deep down they've never cared for the civilians in these other countries. They only care because of the hatred for their own governments.

    I did a lot of reading on how to be successful and one of the main points was always "lead by example".

    If America wants to lead the world to freedom, it's gonna have to practice freedom it's self. Bah, wtf, I'm just wasting my time trying to get through to you people. I only try because it will eventually fuck us over in Canada. I guess I'll just wait until you are living in an obvious dictatorship. Of course by that time, you'll be fitting right in.

    No way ... The last time I pointed out the behavior of specific individuals on here, a huge shitstorm ensured. You know full well what I mean anyways. Others can back me up on the point.

    lol, all sports are boring and pointless. I can't believe how much money people pay to watch that shit and how much these "athletes" actually earn. It's pretty sickening.

    Seriously, the civilians dying are just an excuse to bash America and Israel. Like Hezbollah, most of you love the headlines that more civilians died so you can jump on the Train and bash Israel and Bush again. Hell, when civilians are saved when a terrorist plot is stopped, you complain about that too. Maybe because it didn't go through and you didn't have a headline to attack Bush and Co. with.

    Edit: Now, as much as I feel that the above thoughts are true for a lot of people on here, I am not projecting these beliefs on all of the anti-Israel and anti-US folks.

    I never said winning was a bad thing but when two teams both play well and had a good game, why would it be pointless to tie? Just shake hands knowing you played a worthy opponent and enjoyed playing the game you love.

    That is a sick and twisted way to view things but whatever floats your boat. I'm not gonna waste my time trying to convince you otherwise.
