What do you do when a total *sshat makes a mockery of a system
that has stood the test of time of a whole 200+ years and was ~ for a time ~ the envy of the world.

What do you do you do when the *sshats won't answer to the LAW required in their own country? Producing documents, answering subpeonas?

5. It's a pretty weak system that allows a shit guy like bush to make
a mockery of it. The envy of the world invades a country and unsuccessfully occupies it for 5 years.

6. "Back in the day" the British and the Dutch KNEW that there had to
be some "give", which was much less than they took. But the populace's were fooled ~ for a time, so it worked.

Iraq is just brut force "TAKE". No one's buying into this/has EVER bought into this. It's just wrong.

How could these sociopath's EVER have thought it would work/be good?

Gee, we spend so many hours thinking about the sociopath ~ "looking for the SIGNS" of the VA Tech shooter" .... all the while neglecting the sociopathy of our own leaders....who just will 'shoot you in the face' and pressure you to apologize for standing in their way! "D*mn"

7. "neglecting the sociopathy of our own leaders"

We're living through a half ass updated & lite version of the british empire and/or third reich. My guess is the apathy of the average citizen is about the same.

8. I don't think that's correct .... about the apathy back then...
Even though communicaitons were slow/primative compared to our rapid day 24/7 online culture today.....when the NEWS finally hit people, they had more time to savor the meaning, flavor, ramifications of it all.

We, today.....we are 'dead' b/c we're always in "fast forward"....no flavor, no savor, no meaning ~ no life.
