Why the US cannot be wrong.

Name: Anonymous 2005-12-20 3:04

I have always wondered why there isn't open debate about the inadequacy of the United States government and how dangerous it has become to everyone in the world. I have come to a conclusion:

Democracy has evolved into the greatest weapon against free thought known to mankind. It is currently the status quo on all things fair and equal all over the planet, and yet now its truest weakness is beginning to show. The United States, the self proclaimed nearest-to-perfect democracy, has REelected officials who act to the detriment of society.

This fact alone threatens not only the idea of 'democracy,' but also of the human race's confidence in their judgment and minds. Because of this, we must continue to reinforce the idea that whoever we vote into office can do no absolute wrong, and in that, we've established a totalitarian control on our own ability to think.

Any 'thoughts'?

Leaving aside your frothing about Marxists, Clinton's most obvious war crime was the bombing of Yugoslavia. Look it up, there's plenty of information available. Also look up the sanctions regime and bombing runs in Iraq. (Who can forget Madeleine Albright's statement that it was "worth it," when asked about the estimated 500,000 Iraqi children dead as a consequence of her administration's policies.)

If planes carrying bombs were flying towards national territory, I would authorize the use of force to take out those planes before they got here. That's it. Not "I suspect they gots eeeevil intentions," not "I don't like the guy with the mustache (even though I liked him very much a few years ago)," not "Hey, we don't not know that we don't know that we not know if he's got WMDs, depending on whether the unknown knowns can be known." Let's get real -- all these are excuses for the real reason behind this -- control of Iraq's oil.
