    Is the Consitution some kind of Diety or something that cannot be challenged?

    Do you think that it might be possible that if the framers knew how powerful we turned out to be, they might actually lobby the government to help people?

    I think that if the framers of our constitution knew that you were speaking for them, they would roll over in their grave. Every day I eat, drink, and sh*t politics. And when I'm done with that, I watch the History channel. I grew up in a small town, with teachers who made the problems with our government well-known. If anyone knows about the principles to which our government was founded, I'm one of them.

    But to speak on behalf of the people who created the constitution at THIS DAY is flat-out disrespectful. If they were alive now, I suppose they would still support slavery, too? and no suffrage for women? What things have changed in 200 years???? Bringing freedom to an oppressed people with relative ease was not possible in that day, and also, TOTALLY UNHEARD OF. It's not about conquering countries and gaining land anymore.

    I suppose if you were living in Iraq in poverty, you wouldn't want help?

    Beside that, wasn't this government created on the principle that everyone should have a say in it?

    I'm sorry if I'm offending anyone, but I am SO SICK of people thinking that they know everything. Especially when it comes to interpreting historical figures in a present-day context.

    It's obvious that our government is violating the constitution in many ways (and no one is doing much about it). But, I would stop short of saying that freeing other people is not an implied right which was given to us if we chose.

    I want to puke

    First of all, there's about a billion things that the government does that's not stated in the Constitution.
    Secondly, it's not just the Constitution that gives the government its authority, it's US too. This isn't a dictatorship. If I want some of my tax dollars to go to freedom, then I'll have it. I don't feel like sitting around like a lazy, fat, oblivious American.

    Seriously, I can't possibly argue with someone that actually believes that that was staged. Everything's just a big f*cking conspiracy to you people, isn't it?
    Unbelievable.
    And where's your evidence of this conspiracy? Did the UFOs steal it?
    Did we attack Iraq based on a set of rules? NO. So what's your point?
    Therefore, it's okay for thousands of people to die every year? Am I missing something?
    Are you one of those people that thinks we went to war for oil? ......
    I can't believe I'm arguing with this guy.
    I'm glad that you've found ways to entertain your thoughts. Meanwhile, maybe you should check this out http://mwhodges.home.att.net/

    We pissed off who? Do those jubilent Iraqis look pissed off to you? We killed many, but Saddam would have killed tens of thousands more if we let him stay. Spending has increased? Of course. Our military was crap before (thanks Clinton) and we have to spend to stimulate the economy during recessions. I agree that Bush hasn't been adhering to his platform of small government (of course, who has?) The crap you're spouting off to me is the same spin I here in the liberal media sources... Look, I think we have the same view on the government, but I still think that we should have liberated Iraq. If we shouldn't have, then give me your plan for ending that kind of crap in the world. Furthermore, the big picture is... that we're sending a message - We don't F*ck around when it comes to countries not obeying the rules... and by doing so, we heavily influence other countries (N. Korea)

    So I suppose trying to create peace and pro-Americanism is the wrong thing? Men, women and children getting slaughtered by the thousands every year, and you don't care? And who said the government isn't concentrating on domestic policy? We can't walk and chew gum at the same time? I don't mean to be rude, but you're believing all of the crap that comes from the media. Remember, if nothing is wrong, then they don't have a story.

    It's interesting that the same people who question our government and its laws are the same people who don't care about freedoms in OTHER countries (Iraq). Our government is a bloated piece of crap that violates the principles on which it was founded. That said, I would rather die than buy into what the liberal media says. Although most people look at the US Gov. critically, they NEVER question the media, as if the media isn't built off of profits.

    Probably the best RPG of all time (at least as far as story goes). It's truly unbelievable. I haven't gotten XenoSaga yet, is it as good as the first?
