skydivejersey 0 #3 October 30, 2003 Wonder why... Cultural differences as a result of that big pond thing between our continent and yours seem to throw up some interesting differences.. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BBKid 0 #8 October 30, 2003 Christ! Just looked at the results. Even with me screwing the vote by going for "is the devil", he's still waaaay too popular. I was watching the vid of GB Snr. doing a skydive a few months ago, and couldn't help thinking "if only those legstraps had squashed his nuts and made him infertile..."

lawrocket 3 #10 October 30, 2003 It always amazes me how the liberal elite (I mean the talking heads and those with political clout) use the "idiot" tactic. So that bit about the intelligence of pond life bit is amusing. GWB is not dumb. He is no Woodrow Wilson, either. But he is decisive, and I like that about him. I just don't agree with his decisions much of the time. My wife is hotter than your wife. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BBKid 0 #12 October 30, 2003 QuoteThe people voting for the second row down seem to have a pretty good hold on reality. But have probably never lived outside the USA. Nothing personal against you Clint, it's just that most Americans I know who have lived in Europe or elsewhere have figured out some of the reasons why many countries hate the US, and agree that GWB is only making things worse. This is just an observation - I'm not getting drawn into a long argument. I wish for your sake someone else was in charge. EDIT: I know he was born by the time Snr did his skydive, but you get the point. Nick --------------------------- "I've pierced my foot on a spike!!!"

We are gaining the support of the Iragi people by educating them. We are teaching them freedom. Whether it be the tens of thousands of Iragi police we trained/educated or the children in the schools we opened or the mothers of the children we give medical care to. The Iragi people are learning fast who is good and who is/was evil.
