Coincidence....or Conspiracy??

Dammit, now I can never look at Mike Myers the same way again.

Also, holy shit, a serious debate in GJ&R, I didn't see that coming at all.

 

Iamlegend is right on this one guys. I don't think anyone expects you to be familiar with all US politicians, but being aware of the current election in the US right now is very important to the rest of the world. Every single one of your lives will be somehow effected by the next President. And yes, your TV stations should cover this media, and I know many do (I often browse BBC). Saying it doesn't matter is wrong. Saying your channels shouldn't broadcast information regarding the future of our world is wrong.

Iamlegend has captured my opinion well thus far, but as for your most recent post grimsim, you should know who John McCain is, and you should shut the fuck up about American politics if you don't even know who the two current major presidential candidates are. I don't argue about golf because I don't know shit about it. You should make me a role-model.

PS - I'm a total ass by the way. If you take what I say personally, that's your choice, but I'm not going to candy-up my post.

Edit: One more thing:

The war in Iraq was completely unjustified, but you've still got the wrong idea. You seem to have taken the media's opinion and skewed it in an attempt to justify it without understanding the subject in the least. In 2004, even, the United States had the largest economy in the world, by roughly THREE times over Japan, the country with the second-highest economy at the time. Right now, we now have the highest internal and external debt in the world (you might not know what this means so I'll spell it out: we owe people a lot more than we can fucking afford). We did not GAIN anything in Iraq, and that's fairly obvious. Now, banks are failing, people are dealing with housing foreclosures, inflation, and other financial problems, and (here's where it gets funny) it is all affecting you.

 

Firstly I did initially say that but then went on to agree with iamlegend that he was correct, it does matter and does affect people's lives. If you had fucking read up properly on all the post you would see that. Secondly I never once said that channels do not broadcast this stuff, obviously they do, but that does not mean I watch it. Like I said, I do not watch it at all. You really think I give a shit right now about the presidential elections in good old America? Do you even know what is happening in the country I live in??? Do you not think for one second that maybe I am more worried about what will happen here first? Do you not realise that different people have different factors that affect them in different ways? Of course the president affects us all, and I agreed to that in my previous post, but the gist of my argument at this point is that some people are perhaps not paying much attention because other things are more important in their lives. Did you know that the president in my country stepped down few weeks ago and we have a new stand-in president? Did you know that the favourite to take over at the next elections here is very much a potential tyrant? Did you know that white folk such as me in an African country are finding it really difficult to have hope for the future under the current regime??? Now what makes you think that with all these things happening over here and every day I have to wake up wondering if I am going to have a job when I finish studying and whether my family will be safe here in the near future, that I am even considering what the fuck McCain looks like???
Of course I know who he is and that Obama is his rival. This whole thing stemmed from the fact that I just did not know what he looked like so before you burst out accusing me of not knowing who they are, read the fucking posts properly and think about other peoples lives too, maybe US politics is not that important to them right now.

I have not taken any opinion but have read up and formulated my own opinion based on everything I have read and watched on the matter, that just so happens to coincide with what you believe is the media's view. Furthermore I did not say America got rich out of it, no, in fact what I am saying is that certain people got did. Someone is making money out of it.

Oh and PS: I can be an asshole too

 

I really do hate to kill this rare occurence, but I can't have you assholes shitting all over each other, thus resulting in a big mess, so I'm gonna have to get myself dirty and fuck you both now. Being a dick is a pretty dirty and unrewarding job, don't you agree?

My horrible attempt at a joke aside, Locked.
