I'm sure that any country in our position would probably abuse our power a lot more than we do.
The thing I dislike most about the US is our president. First of all, we didn't vote for him (nothing new there), and now the American people realize that he hasn't done in office except promote his self image. Now he's scared his presidency will become meaningless and forgotten because he hasn't done anything and even if he wanted to he's too underqualified (as if no one saw THAT coming). So what does he want to do so he can write himself a place in the history books and save his presidency? "Hey! Let's start a war with Iraq, that sounds like a good idea!"
God if he gets re-elected I'm moving outta here, I'm ashamed that my own people are so gullible and stupid.
Another thing that pisses me off about the US are extreme right wing Christian bible beating fanatics who get elected into office and totally destroy the idea of separation of church and state. Doesn't anybody realize that these kind of politics are:
a) Unconstitutional
b) no better than extreme Islamic or Jewish Fanatacism?
Also, in case anyone around here doesn't already know, affirmitive action is Bull. If you don't get accepted into college because you're not as qualified as I am, and you happen to be black or hispanic, well that's your own ing problem. |

Well when this country starts treating ALL people with equality, or somehow ensures everyone recieves THE SAME opportunities then affirmative action will be Bull. Until then, it is good. |

But people can't receive the exact same opportunities unless people are exactly identical in every way. If minorities really want to be treated with equality, they ought to stop referring to themselves as a seperate group of people.
"I need to be treated preferentially, so that I can be equal," is the creed of affirmative action. Ironically, it is a self-contradictory sentiment. |
