Who Should The US Invade next?
 
Apparently, some pollsters asked some people on the street who the US should target next. You just might be surprised at some of the responses. :eek:

I wish it were surprising. Sadly, the state of public understanding of geopolitics is hopeless. But ask any of those folks about NFL or NBA teams and they'd look like geniuses.

You got THAT right!!! Couple of guys I work with are marginal employees, at best. Their knowledge of our internally developed applications is really pathetic. Ask them about "the game" last night, and they're all over it...quoting personal stats, comments like, "remember in 99, that game against Boston, {insert athete's name} scored XX amount of points, yada, yada, yada. Pretty sad, indeed!

That's in Quebec. Quebec is a seperate country, I think.

Obviously, by hint of the persons interviewed, the U.S. should invade the U.S. public school system. :rolleyes:

California could easily survive without the rest of the U.S.

The rest of the U.S. probably wouldn't do so well without CA. ;)



I do like the idea of attacking D.C. though. Without warning. With nukes. Actually we should use neutron bombs (kill all the people, leave the buildings). I've always liked D.C. architecture for some reason. . .

johncj8989 02-15-2006 12:13 PM

Invade Detroit and take over the Big Three.

Deschodt 02-15-2006 12:48 PM

I vote Venezuela... They actually might be grateful to be rid of Chavez, they got oil, and are a lot closer to the conUS. ;-)

Not schools, government schools which are little more than little sociofascist propaganda camps.

All your base are belong to us.

Those arent pollsters. That is "The Chaser", or CNNNN, Australian political satirists. Read the tickers running across the screen. They do a nice job on Fox.

Chaser are in the news at the moment becasue they submitted this cartoon by cartoonist Michael Luenig to the Iranian newspaper running a competition to test Western free speech. The cartoon has been withdrawn, aplogies issued etc.

http://www.abc.net.au/mediawatch/sto...60502_s5f1.gif

They are indeed very naughty boys. From the real CNN today:

Mul-berry, how many times must I remind you that as a neo-con YOU are a liberal.

You may not be a Kennedy or Kerry liberal, but you're definitely a Bush and McCain liberal.

To the core.

Somewhat of an overstatement methinks, especially given Bush is to the right of McCain and I decidedly to the right of Bush policy coddling the communists...which doesn't negate the fact that you do nothing other than assure the most left candidate gets elected. In your current manifestation you have aligned yourself with the enemy of your enemy, who is not your friend.

I will not abandon a position because others take it up. Opposing the Bush'ists is not a liberal position, because Bush is a liberal.

Opposition to Bush is a libertarian and conservative position. If Bush's activities elect a Democrat, it's hardly rational to lay that at the feet of those that told him not to go where he went.

Costa Rica - good surf.

Maybe Bali, but too many terrorists. Fiji instead.

Enjoy, send us an electronic post card.

911pcars 02-16-2006 12:48 AM

Not sure you guys realize it, but you've been discussing bombing and invading countries and US cities. That's terrorist talk in many govt. bureaucrats' minds.

I bet the NSA has a bead (or a record) on every one of your email messages, phones too. BTW, let us know if you get audited by the IRS next year. And don't forget to send the forum a technical inquiry from one of those facilities in Siberia. We'll miss you, but only for awhile, or someone will assume your user name and avatar and no one will be the wiser.

The interviewer appeared to have an Aussie accent, and aside from the Sri Lanka girl, everyone put their flag on Australia, whether they thought it was Iran, France, or Korea. Staged? People can't be that stupid. Can they?

I believe the map had Australia labeled variously as Iran and Korea in some of those takes. And yes, people can be that stupid. Look who's in the white house.

That is with a hostile press working against him and for Gore and Kerry...Who is the monkey's uncle?

BTW...Kerry and Gore were frauds and less intelligent based on collegiate testing.
