- Andie, you are a bad person for wanting to go there! -- nm - Don Homer Mar 10, 10:22 27
  - it's cool, i can't disrespect someone for having ideals. but as i said in an IM below, i went to the USA during Bush's administration and i believe - Andie Mar 10, 10:23 26
    - (I assume the IM refers exclusively to the Iraq war, and not the Afghanistan war, right?) - Beryllium Mar 10, 10:26 13
      - I have no issue with Afghanistan, we've been there forever. He lied about WMD, he invaded Iraq before he had UN approval. - Andie Mar 10, 10:28 11
        
        "We know that he has stored secret supplies of biological and chemical weapons throughout his country." - Dr.Vermin Mar 10, 10:37 8

        forget it, Jack, it's Vermintown... -- nm - znufrii Mar 10, 10:41
        
        2002? since we are quoting private citizens, let me quote my favorite one - crash davis Mar 10, 10:40
        
        Al Gore didn't 'shock and awe.' -- nm - Andie Mar 10, 10:39 2
        
        I'm just saying, it's not like Bush made up the stories about WMDs himself, as you imply. - Dr.Vermin Mar 10, 10:45 1
        
        I think it's fair to say that Cheney was the evil one. (The cafe press ad being shown right now is priceless) - Beryllium Mar 10, 10:50

        "court of law", pshaw! That's a good one! -- nm - Dubya Mar 10, 10:32
      - No, the war on Christmas. -- nm - Bill O'Vermin Mar 10, 10:28
    - Glad you survived! -- nm - Dr.Vermin Mar 10, 10:26 11
      - i went to the US when Bush was in power ... it was scaaaaaary ... - Beryllium Mar 10, 10:32 3
        
        When I drove through Canada in 2004, your security pissed me off. - Dr.Vermin Mar 10, 10:34 2
        
        are you allowed to ship guns (via fedex or whatever) across state lines? -- nm - Beryllium Mar 10, 10:36 1
        
        Yes, but the recipient has to have a federal firearms license. -- nm - Dr.Vermin Mar 10, 10:38
      - Really! I've heard horror stories about people visiting the U.S. and never getting out. -- nm - CrankYanker Mar 10, 10:28
      - i'm not saying i regret going, i'm just saying, if you are going to boycott other countries based on their leadership.... -- nm - Andie Mar 10, 10:27 5
        
        Oh I get your point. And overall, it's a good one. - Dr.Vermin Mar 10, 10:32 4
        
        in your opinion. i'd like to compare civiilian casualties in Iraq vs Cuba. -- nm - Andie Mar 10, 10:34 3
        
        Not differing enough to justify the difference between "we're cool" and "pure evil". - Dr.Vermin Mar 10, 10:43 2
        
        but, i don't think *americans* are pure evil, see? -- nm - Andie Mar 10, 10:52 1
        
        I'm not taking it personally. :) -- nm - Dr.Vermin Mar 10, 11:03
- Wow, that's an entirely fair thing to say to her! -- nm - Reagen Mar 10, 10:22
- of course i'm not, but having been there, several times, i can tell you what you hear, and what happens aren't exactly equal. - Andie Mar 10, 10:21 5
  - so in other words, you're saying you have no moral standards... :) - znufrii Mar 10, 10:25

- the sad thing is, Raul seemed like a pretty decent guy ... and now Fidel is back -- nm - Beryllium Mar 10, 10:17 1
  - (I really expected that scenario to work out oppositely) -- nm - Beryllium Mar 10, 10:18
