and FSTV about Iran and the probable upcoming war and to be honest, it has freaked me out. I haven't been around here in awhile b/c I got tired of the fighting so those who don't know me..I'm a republican..a "leave me the fuck alone" republican...not a neo-con type.

So my question is this...what the fuck is wrong with W? I'm not cool with world war 3 that gets many thousands killed. I'm not cool with some PNAC attempt at global domination that will end up ruining our American way of life instead of helping it. (Yea $5/gallon for gas)

I hope Iran doesn't have nukes and when they do, I hope they don't nuke Isreal. But...is it our job to keep this from happening or Isreal's?

Bad enough that Iraq is a cluster fuck..are we just going to make the entire middle east a cluster fuck as well?

    D263, Hey buddy!!!


    What was Dick's words the other day from his secure(?) position in Afgan. Something to the tune of......"as long as it is over here, it is all okay." Don't you buy that one?

    Don't let all the nonsense go to your head. The world is a-o-k.

    Good to see both of you!

    It is college hoop time..but my team has been pathetic. #4 in December to sucking ass now. Actually, they just tipped on in the SEC Tourney. I'm going tomorrow. Free tickets, free hotel, and drink pass at the dome (thanks Staceb10 for the pass). I'm basically going for the party.

    Seriously though, why the fuck are we going to start WW3?

    If you don't know, I can't tell you. But I hope you're not trying to make that into me saying "America is better than everyone else" b/c you'd be reaching.

    That's awesome....about the free stuff and pass (I haven't 'seen' Staceb10 in sometime).

    You think you had a bad year....check out the Bearcats. That is what happens when you basically fire a HOF coach, go a year with an interim coach and not have any recruiting. Anyhow...

    Iran worries me and so does the potential response from the US. Being trigger happy is a dangerous thing.

    Our coach has had many bad conference seasons. I'm ready for him to move on. People don't realize he's only had 3 winning conference years out of 9. Billy Donovan at Florida has had 8 straight.

    Iran is a danger, anyone denying that Iran with nukes is a really bad thing is foolish or just stupid, but I just can't find a reason for us to be leading this march when they're not going to nuke us. Isreal is the one that has to worry. Let them lead the way.

    It's just a question. Is it some kind of secret, why can't you tell me?

    B/c I've got enough experience on this board to know what you're doing. You picked a key phrase out of that which has little to do with the overall subject to create an America sucks thread.

    I won't be stirred.

    Sorry to disappoint you, but that's not what I'm doing. But you're right it doesn't have anything to do with the original subject, so nevermind.

    lol..not disappointing me. I thought you were stirring.

    Well then I'll try to answer it if I can. Well shit...maybe I should change it to my way of life??? My point in that statement was that a war with Iran, especially that we start, affects each one of us. It's easy to say the Iraq war is horrible but doesn't change my everyday life. Starting another war will. See what I mean? Add that to the list of many reasons for it not to happen..ie started by W.

    Sorry for being overly sensitive. My basketball team is playing as we speak in Atlanta, many of my friends are actually there, and I'm having to watch it online. Oh..and they suck.

    So I'm a bit tense. lol

    No, problem. You made a thread and didn't want it to be about bashing the US, which is understandable.

    Hope your team did ok.

    You mean that interim coach who has already received some nods as "SEC Coach of the Year." That one????? ;)

    I wish that he had returned to his Alma mater. :(

    and invading Iran would rank up there such great military moves as the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan and the Nazi invasion of the Soviet Union. Scary!!!
