So are you saying that Americans aren't capable of starting their own businesses?
And at the AP discussion about Al Queda "endorsing" McCain, the logic seems totally valid to me. Terrorists are able to sustain themselves because people in the Middle East hate America. People in the Middle East hate America because we stick our dick in the Middle East and rape everything in sight.
If we stop interfering in the Middle East, the average person won't hate us. And if the terrorists can't convince the average person to hate us, then only the true extremists are left, which is probably only 10-30% of the terrorists. Most terrorists were regular people before they were terrorists, and wouldn't have a problem going back to their regular life if they no longer had a reason to commit terrorism.
We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers…Also a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls. The only thing that really worried me was the ether. There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge. –Raoul Duke
It is hard to shed anything but crocodile tears over White House speechwriter Patrick Buchanan's tragic analysis of the Nixon debacle. "It's like Sisyphus," he said. "We rolled the rock all the way up the mountain...and it rolled right back down on us...." Neither Sisyphus nor the commander of the Light Brigade nor Pat Buchanan had the time or any real inclination to question what they were doing...a martyr, to the bitter end, to a "flawed" cause and a narrow, atavistic concept of conservative politics that has done more damage to itself and the country in less than six years than its liberal enemies could have done in two or three decades. -Hunter S. Thompson
