George Bush makes a Jessica Simpson joke

[NicoleWasHere]

I think Jessica Simpson is the real root of our problems.

[snuffy]

That makes sense.... I was just curious... no tit for tat here!
I've been to a few places in Europe but mostly the central and south americas... so I can see why our view points are very different.

Bummer ... I was secretly hoping for a tit for tat!

Another thing most of those countries have that is long overdue in the U.S. is a mandatory 1 year military service. I'm sure I'm a minority on that idea, but at least all the rich politicians would have to face sending their own kids into the fire.

Do Americans do labour strikes like we do in Europe?
I cant recall a real strike,seriously..
In France they strike,the gov shit their pants..same in here..that is our weapon..

The fuel issue....given that a gallon is 4.5 litres, and petrol in the UK is around £1.10 a litre,we pay around $9.76 a gallon for our fuel at the moment.


I'm just sayin.


BTW this thread is absolutely fascinating, very intelligent arguements and no descents into name-calling..
And it all started with Jessica Simpson!

I love this board.

I blame Joe - when she talks, do his lips move?



^and Rondette - aren't half your fuel costs taxes?

Also look to France. Man, when those workers throw a protest they get what they want because the gov't is afraid of them. That's the way it should be, the people should not have to fear their gov't like we do here.

Yeah that's exactly what I want.. a Government who crumbles every time a bunch of pissed off people protest.

You fear our government? Really? Wow!
If I feared my government I'd move. (not being sarcastic.. just sayin..)

Yikes.. that's not very free is it?

I see your point.. but don't like the idea of it.

It would be free in a way ... everyone would be free to suffer equally

this satirical news show with puppets in spain recreated the scene in the great dictator where chaplin dances around the office with his globe, except instead of chaplin it was josé maría aznar. brilliant.

If this a government of, for, and by the people-you know, a Democracy-then the government is there to serve the people, not the other way around. The government should be there to make sure the people are not exploited by big business interests. If it were not for a bunch of pissed off people, children would still be working 16 hour days in factories and companies could pay us 10 cents an hour for hard labor.

If you don't fear this gov't, you haven't been paying enough attention.

awwww poor timothy dalton!
aznar wishes he looked that good. at least timothy dalton didn't have a stick up his ass and a paralysed upper lip that he has to disguise with a hitler stache.
