ANND in the vid of the apache lighting up the ied planters you can see the dog on the right side of the screen get away safely.

AYO, U A FUKIN IDIOT NIGGA, NIGAS IS KILLIN ONE ARMED COMPATANTS 4 NO REZON B! SHIT NIGGA HAMMER TIME UP IN DIS BITCH.

(opsec) Seriously though, you make a lot of well thought out and articulate points, but not everyone is cut out for a rigorous and highly fulfilling job like mopping the floors at home depot. niggas gotta do what dey gotta do wordlyfe!

I guess this response ^ is easier than just answering the questions, and telling me what he plans to do with any of those countries and conflicts. i didn’t ask them as filler and they weren’t rhetorical, and the oped didn’t bring up the same questions for filler. Those are things that are more important to me than heavily armed gay illegal immigrants getting married and having abortions, I actually want to know what he plans to do about it, or if he is even aware of the situations he could atleast acknowledge them other than vague rhetoric about “reaching out to the world” or “george bush’s illegal invasion of iraq” (even if that’s completely unrelated to whatever hes talking about.) And I really haven’t offered a criticism of obama, I don’t need to. His lack of foreign policy experience and more importantly total lack of positions on major situations in the world that the US has an interest in, offers a obvious criticism of him by itself. You insinuate I am ignorant of obama's real policies, so instead of going in circles criticizing my criticisms, prove me wrong and give me some examples of what he specifically plans to do with any of the situations I listed above or that were in the oped, or any major situation in the world that we have interests in. Enlighten my ignorance brother! Remember the word SPECIFIC though, so what he would actually do, not how his hopeful change will audaciously look to the future and reach out to the world while bringing us together. And “cult of personality” has a different meaning than a normal cult, so don’t feel too passively aggressively insulted.

The difference is the other candidates HAVE a voting record before they started campaigning. If obama had a record too, he would be forced to go a little easy on “I knew not to vote for the iraq war” stuff. This is exactly what I said a few posts up, Obama has about 1.5 years as a senator. Being a state politician for a relatively short amount of time is not a qualification to be president, maybe he should run for governor. And like you said it offers no insight on any foreign policy issue, which is the main subject I am concerned with. im not, other than he wants to meet with the iranian gov. He says he will offer cash and diplomatic normalization if they play ball with no plan of how we will establish that they stopped supporting Hezbollah and dissolve QF (which they wont), and offers basically no consequences if they don’t. Depending on what audience he is speaking in front of, we need to put “more pressure” on iran, or stop george bush from his aggression against iran. Not really, most of the other candidates have some sort of clear foreign policy strategy laid out. Of course obama has this http://www.barackobama.com/issues/foreignpolicy/ , but then there is nothing real there. One of the few specifics he gives is he will “secure all loose nuclear materials in the world within 4 years”, which is very funny/scary he apparently believes this enough where he would have a staffer write it on his webstie. This is my problem, it seems like your beliefs and obama supporters in general are based about how you “feel” about obama instead of any concrete policy he has laid out. You haven’t given me a real example of why you feel these things. He didn't vote for the iraq war, but he didnt vote against it either since he wasnt a senator at that point. They had a meeting of his campaign people volunteering for him on the news, again, and instead of talking politics they were singing and clapping rhythmically. People dont understand this is the presidential election, not american idol. People didnt give a shit when bush couldnt point to various countries on a map during his first campaign for president, and that worked out marvelously.

You may have detected a hint of sarcasm if you have your sarcasm detector turned all the way up. Anyway it might be insulting for some people to get accused of knowing very little about a candidate's (nonexistant) policies, and basic events in the world, and still supporting the obamania, but that goes with the territory in a cult of personality.

Even though the pup appears to be dead that kid is a clown, and he did a great job further illustrating that conventional forces arent suited to this line of work, and the need for constant adult supervision.

PUPPY KILLING AMERICA INFIDELS!!! This is an edited version of a video that shows an ambush of insurgent run roadblocks. Since you dont know what that means, they pull over cars and murder everyone who is in the wrong sect. Also, if they were shooting UNARMED civilians, there wouldnt be rounds coming back at them. So, in conclusion, you are a fucking moron. I don't have the time to watch all of these videos, but the ones I did were either bullshit or misleading, designed to sway the minds of those operating with a few missing chromosomes.

Great read dude. The ruskies power depends heavily on their natural resources right now though, if/when prices go back down again they may lose some of their bravado (like the bear flights or assassinating dissidents abroad.)

Also mad props for posting this link http://www.votesmart.org/voting_category.php?can_id=9490 and helping me make my point. Now that is a lot of NVs!!

Insulting people is always an effective way to get your point across. So your response is that nobody cares what I think, and I am also crazy, and then you copy paste an image of his record as a STATE senator? Are you going to post his record as a member of the student council too? And then an article with absolutely NO mention of any foreign policy positions? I am willing to bet you (like most people in this country) have not heard of or know very little about any of the major foreign policy issues I asked about and thus they arent important to you. But choosing between the future and the past is pretty important. This is why hes popular, if he talked about anything of substance he would be boring. Also, no offense to the almighty 12oz gods, but being a moderator on a graffiti website doesn’t give you some special insight into presidential candidate selection.

A random guy who a few thousand people take orders from. Not sure why the "taleban" part angers you, but if its the E thats not a typo, the brits write it like that because they have better diction than us. And this is more along the lines of the journalism you get when the journalists dont leave the green zone...the caption was that these are some of the bullets the americans fired into her house. You might not catch it right away.

This is exactly like everyone who describes themselves as "politically aware" in the US. And many of them, who are already a minority, still dont vote. Another mind bogglingly retarded phenomenon we have is how everyone's politics is determined by what region they are from...everyone votes the same and thinks the same as everyone else in their city or state.

What voting record? He was a senator for about a year and a half, and has since spent all of his time campaigning. He has missed 40% of his votes. http://projects.washingtonpost.com/congress/members/o000167/ Also if you think he would have voted agaist the iraq war and made himself a pariah, you are kidding yourself. He is just as scumbaggy every other politician, he has lobbyists running his campaign just like all of the other major candidates. Not trying to be a dick but did you read the editorial? Because that is a major point in it. He is going to meet with people, great, but what is he going to accomplish in these meetings? Simply sitting down with a foreign govt is going to accomplish absolutely nothing on its own, and he has been very vague (if he has mentioned them at all, which in most cases he hasn’t) about what positions he is going to take on various foreign policy issues. Like what was mentioned in the article, he says he is going to meet with assad, but does that mean he is going to allow his govt to continue to fuck with Lebanon in exchange for assistance against terrorists? Or is he just going to sit down for a photo op and accomplish nothing? Even though the Iranians have not and will never be receptive, are we really going to again piss off the Saudis by trying to get on iran’s good side? Take a hard line against genocide in darfur, we further alienate the muslim world and give the Chinese a serious case of the ass. Withdraw from iraq and then launch air strikes against al qaeda, which we would have zero intelligence for if there is no military presence there, and we are going to kill hundreds of Iraqi civilians just like what happened in 03 when we had to rely on outside intelligence when we were trying to “strike” saddam....not to mention the sectarian violence that would come back strong when we leave. Are we going to placate Russia, turn a blind eye to human rights abuses/assassinations, maybe concede georgia and give up the icbm shield? The point is the world’s grievances with the US aren’t going to go away because he has an upbeat message of hope and change and looking to the future blah blah blah, nor will they because he isn’t george bush. If he has given concrete positions on any of the above, please shine the golden light of obama onto my dark shadows of ignorance!

And even kewler OBEY is actually making obama posters, and it isnt supposed to be ironic. I want to make some that say OBEY instead of hope/change/magicalpixiedust.

I ran into this today and thought it was right on the moola. It is unfortunate that most of the kiddies on college campuses everywhere don't have the attention span to take 5 minutes and read this, and even worse that they dont have the mental capabilities to come up with the obvious questions asked in the oped. BBC has been running this segment all day about the race on the democratic side, and the head obama kid actually said the reason they dont know any of obama's actual policies is that "we are students, we're in class 16 hours a week, we dont have time to read policy papers!" That is why obama (and to a lesser extent clinton, she seems more to be trying to follow his lead) is so popular, his whole campaign is based around slogans with as few words as possible...hope! change!!! We should really have some sort of general knowledge test you have to take in order to vote, and maybe push the age back to 30. Anyway now that my rant is over here is an editorial you probably wont read. DEMOCRATS World poses difficult choices Posted on Mon, Feb. 25, 2008 By FRIDA GHITIS fghitis@yahoo.com By now, it has become the stuff of political legend how President Bush and Karl Rove performed the alchemy of turning the dark shadows of 9/11 into election-winning votes from frightened Americans. Democratic candidates like Sen. Barack Obama vow they will never use fear to ''scare up votes.'' Instead, Democrats have moved to the other extreme. When it comes to foreign policy, Democrats appear to have turned to a new version of the Scarlett O'Hara strategy: I'll worry about that tomorrow. It's not enough to agree that the Bush administration was a disaster. Answers to difficult dilemmas are needed. But the exhilarated crowds chanting ''Yes, we can!'' at Obama rallies only hear about a bright tomorrow in which tough problems facing America in foreign lands are solved almost by magic, perhaps by the power of their candidate's charm and verve. Kumbaya campaign The Kumbaya campaign is most prominent in the glowing revivals of Obamaland, but Sen. Hillary Clinton's foreign policy forays on the trail also have a hesitant, superficial feel, as if even acknowledging that difficult choices lie ahead will make Democrats think the candidate is channeling the vote-killing spirit of George W. Bush. The candidates took only slightly more detailed steps in last week's Austin debate, but they continued to avoid addressing the most difficult issues. Both Obama and Clinton offer a two-pronged feel-good platform on foreign policy: they will pull American troops out of Iraq, and they will restore America's standing in the world. Nice, isn't it? Peace and love. Let's hold hands and sing Kumbaya. They also dislike genocide. Who doesn't? But there's a little problem here. What if withdrawing from Iraq triggers genocide there? Both candidates are deliberately vague on the subject; much nicer to image the happy scenes of family reunions for returning troops. As Leon Wieseltier of the New Republic put it, Obama's ''declarations in matters of foreign policy and national security have a certain homeopathic quality,'' with solutions that are always painless. What if, in our efforts to regain the love of the world -- by working in concert with other nations -- we find that other nations whose support we desperately need in other areas (say China, Saudi Arabia, Russia) refuse to help stop genocide -- or terrorism and nuclear proliferation? Will we allow genocide or act out without them? Send troops to Darfur? Consider Darfur. Last year, Obama wrote critically of how ''we have allowed genocide to persist for over four years in Darfur.'' It's been five years now. Would he send in the troops? With China holding veto power at the United Nations, America may find that in this and future genocides (more will come) it may face the choice of sending its own troops or permitting the slaughter to continue. The choice is not always love and peace. Sometimes it's love or peace. What about the Middle East beyond Iraq? Will we risk relations with Muslim regimes that mistreat their own people -- turning a blind eye to human rights abuses for the sake of oil or help in the fight against terrorism? What about Israel and the Palestinians? Which side will feel greater pressure from Washington? Obama has famously said that he would meet with leaders of Iran and Syria. What exactly would he offer to change their dangerous behavior? Would he let Iran continue enriching uranium -- the key ingredient of nuclear weapons -- so we can kiss and make up? If not, what would he do to change the situation? Would he let Syria dominate Lebanon in exchange for cooperation on Iraq or terrorism? That's much more important than whether or not he or his representatives attend a meeting. He has written it's time to act with ''boldness and foresight'' in the Middle East. What exactly does that mean? About as much as ''We have to choose between our future and our past,'' one of the many empty lines that brings his followers to the edge of rapture. Boldness, by the way, is one trait we did not find lacking in the most disastrous policies of the Bush administration. Problems beyond our borders Obama says he would hold a summit with leaders of all Muslim countries so they can tell us their complaints. We know what they will say, but as Britain's The Economist put it, ``the Middle East will not heal, just because a president's second name is Hussein. Choices will have to be made -- and foes created.'' America's problems beyond our borders did not begin with Bush. They will not end because he leaves, even if his departure does, as it certainly will, remove a magnet for hatred. The problems will not end because we promise 'change,' and they will not vanish over tea. They will require difficult decisions that will cause many, here and abroad, to feel extreme anger at the American government. But we will worry about that tomorrow. For now, Democratic candidates prefer not to say very much about the difficult choices we will face on the foreign arena. After all, voters may not like what they hear.

This post is seriously awesome. You are a 21 year old American, caucasoid, middle to upper class parents, 3rd year in college? I would go with the arab born in america angle, but then you would probably know the palestinians and hezbollah have nothing to do with eachother. AND cacash, you always bring a high level of intelligence, poise, and eloquence to the discussion, so keep up the good work.

Also I love how the same people who said in 2004 the american public is so fucking retarded, are all in love with the candidate that the majority of americans like now - obamania!!!! Everyone got hella smart, it cant be that you guys are just as fucking stupid/naive/gullible as they are.

You are probably right, I just skim posts on crossfire because if I read all of the idiotic shit you guys write on here/actually believe my head might explode. So be a dear and lets clarify, is it that you attempted to vote and then FAIL? Or that you aren’t going to try to vote this time around, so when you are complaining about who is elected you can say “yeah man I didn’t vote at all in the election so its not my fault, oh wait actually it is my fault since voting is the process which determines who is elected and I intentionally didn’t participate, oh man im such a fucking retard I should go jump off the empire state building now.” I mean, you do realize that you can still say “I didn’t elect that fuck” by voting for the other fuck, right? sorry if I have been harshing your mellow brosef.

You have no idea how much I wish that just a fraction of the obnoxious shitheads who said this in 2000, 04, and every opportunity since then, and then couldnt be troubled to get off the fucking couch for 15 minutes to vote, would just follow through and get out of my country. Go get citizenship in euroland, they already have all of the social programs obama/clinton are promising you so it must be great there. First try to get a work permit, and if you can, just wait until you see the 50sq ft bachelor pad you get after 50% of your income is skullfucked by their tax system (to pay for their inefficient and generally useless social programs). But don't worry, you will really get your moneys worth when you finally get into the doctors office after a 3 month waiting period to get that rash checked out which resulted from your encounter with a newly arrived slavic working girl (who ripped you off since you still dont understand the euro-dollar conversion rate.) And have fun dodging fiat unos on your vespa, in the winter.

saving from

Yeah but there are serial killers and that type of stuff, we just don't hear about it on the news. The hierarchy of newsworthiness is 1 local yokel having a heart attack at kfc = 10 europeans dying in a moped pile up = 10,000 africans killed from disease/genocide. Of course the dopplar radar and news chopper 5 covering traffic takes precedence over all.

What would you call tiananmen square then? China has a totally awesome system and all, but I like using the internet and not suffocating when I run, so I will probably not move and just deal with the roving crowds of gun wielding maniacs here.

Well it sort of seemed like you missed it and I assume most people on here were probably potty training when that incident took place. I apologize if I insulted your base of knowledge. Also you will need to use more angry emoticons and the caplock for me to know we are arguing.
