Well maybe not totally, but imo it would still be much better spent here at home instead of giving it to ungrateful foreigners, and I include the money we give to the UN in that.

Don't take the GT forums to seriously. It will only make you lose your hair prematurely.

I don't think it's true to say that many US Subsimmers are right-wing - barely-disguised chauvinism would be a better description. Loving the sound of your own voice might also have something to do with it. Then again, there are so few places to discuss US politics on the internet, aren't there?

More importantly, I think Skybird and August should get married and have a politically ambiguous baby. Aramike and Steamwake could be stand-by sperm donors. Neal Stevens to read the vows.

No smart-ass speeches at the reception, though - politics is a serious business.

PD

yup, go to world war 2 online's off topic and you'll find the same thing.

i think the reason is that most left wing liberals really aren't into history or wargames.

it's just an ideological difference i guess.

...and I'm also vegetarian *hrhr*

That's disturbing, as I'm the same. Well, except I'm not quite a pacifist (really, violence is wonderfully decisive tool), but I DO have guns and play combat sims and am a vegetarian.
