how many degrees does a person have to earn before they can disagree with you and not be someone taken in by spin, propaganda and paranoia from "the" government, or is it that until they agree with you they remain a simpleton?

He's using dd/mm/YY format, as opposed to mm/dd/YY. I'm assuming that you're aware of this already.
You might be one of those idiots, I don't know. There definitely was a PR exercise involving the President, VP and others to link the events of 9/11 to the rationale for war in Iraq. Check the result here
I'd fisk your longer post, but I'm have to get some sleep. Working on a post-grad in the US system is hard work, and as yet, not anti-American hard work

I don't get where this attitude stems from that you can basically be an idiot and serve effectively in the military.
Why don't you put your elitist attitude in check. It is apparent you are not qualified to dictate to others what exactly it takes to be in the military. |
I'd say the only ones qualified are those who either have served, or are serving, but this is a sidetrack.
Rather than focusing on gnirtS shooting his mouth off, has anyone got a theory on why so many soldiers think they're in Iraq in reaction to 9/11?
I mean, when it's so obviously for WMD/humanitarian/oil/whatever reasons...  |
*EDIT* To get back on topic. lol
I think we all interpolate information differently. There are those that see everything Bush does as backwards and without reason, while there are others who are in total disagreement.
99% of us have the same sources of information yet a majority of us have differing opinions. Why? Who knows....it's probably a nature vs nurture debate. lol
