    Corrections:

    Abortions - Legal, providing the religious right hasn't burned down the hospital. Even if so, you're going to get shit for it.

    Hooker - We have one state in 50, he still gets the point for this one (if hookers are a point, but still)

    Divorce - Over half of marriges end in divorce (ironically, more religious homes have a higher rate, whats up with that?)... we're damn good at divorce in america

    Alcohol - You can't purchase alcohol in much of the country on a sunday. Blue laws. You skipped the point of his post to argue the wording, not a good way to argue.

    Visa - his point is that he can go to different countrys without needing to put a tag in his ear.

    Damn you're desperate to have everyone be wrong, and really come off as an asshole.

    Representation, by your own bloody definition, means that you get a say in government. They are representing us... 'taking care of shit' the way we would if we were there.

    If the govt decides it wants to spend the budget on dog chew toys, they're not acting as a representative of the people... likewise if they're not building infastructure, keeping america stable, and-

    You know what, screw this. It's obvious from your post you're a bigoted asshole, and I don't have the patience to explain how stupid you are to someone who is just going to reply with a childish "no you!"

    Good day sir.

    Who said invasion?

    I'm saying that the more we cut science, the farther ahead other countrys will get. Our ability to bomb brown people isn't going to keep us ahead in the world... our ability to produce products and technology is.

    If I had my way I'd cut the military funding by 3/4, and the military manpower by 7/8... then spend more money on less people to better equip them. A small effective group with just enough nukes in storage to keep M.A.D active. And the money saved would go toward research, production, and improving our own country.

    Oh yes, would be a much better country without roads, police, and all those other little things government wastes our money on. Why I'm sure some loving company would step in and be happy to take care of that. Or would you prefer each community deals with that individually? Say with a system where we each have a day we work those jobs?

    Guess it would be simpler to appoint people to do those jobs... and appoint people to deal with it. And we'll need a way to pay them, probably just each pay a share of it, that'd be the most fair way to do it. We could send the money to a group who then sends it to the approprate people, and tells them what's needed to be done where.

    Oh, shit... we've made a government again. How about that?

    Grow up.

    This is one of those areas where I don't CARE if his motives (or JFK's) are impure for doing it. I could care less if he thought putting a man on the moon would suddenly get him laid (more)... the fact is that it was a good choice which pushed us forward technologically and as a people.

    If Obama justifys space by saying it's to prevent terrorism I'd sign up for it. Whatever keeps the great minds there expanding our knowledge as a whole.

    Spoken like someone who has no idea why it will always be possible for a single crazy fuck to damage large areas.

    You could put a platoon on every block in this country, and I could tell you how to blow up a building. Defence against a small one shot attack is impossible in the long run. And while money is poured into the problem endlessly, it's simply a no-fix situation.

    Even when we sort out the fact that half the world thinks we're satans bastard children, even when the world is singing and dancing together, there's still going to be sick fuckers out there who want to blow shit up, and defence is never 100% for that in a country with any semblence of freedom.

    So torn on this issue... but I'm going with the 'bomb them to hell' crowd.

    Park an aircraft carrier out there, give the ships the radio for it, and whenever someone yells help send a plane to blow them out of the water.

    I know it doesn't address the source, but we're not able to fix that source. This is effectivly a 'bad neighborhood' and we frankly don't have to take this shit from them. We tried to help them, the country doesn't want helped. If that's how it's going to be, fine... but there's no reason countrys around them should suffer from issues in shipping lanes.

    I DO think that a warning should be given... big explosion in the water type thing, make damn sure they know we're not joking... but if they continue, regretably their lives are less then the merchants to me.
