I have said this before I will have to say this again until we can get a good answer:

What the fuck is the government waisting time doing this crap when they have a war on terror to fight? Concentrate on what is necessary for the war effort, dammit.



The solution to terror is not war, but understanding and working towards a future where all mankind can live peaceful and happily. Not exploiting each other and respecting each other's believes and religion.


Of course war is not a solution to terror! Everyone knows that.

The "war on terror" is a convenient windmill to keep tilting against. It'll keep this country in a perpetual state of war; making it easier to deny the individuals' rights (while the rich folks get tax breaks, the corporations get more powers).

Why doesn't anyone (democrats, repubs) bring up 'war on terror' when the taxes are being discussed? Because they know that that is not the desired goal of this so-called 'war'; it is to make it easier to govern, and keep the citizens down.

This is what you get for voting R or D, people. STOP voting along party lines.


I assume you're being sarcastic.

How about the government concentrate on reducing the massive debt or getting a decent healthcare system setup?

Waging war and pointless internet censorship aren't high on my list.


DNS is bad enough, but you really want these people in charge of your healthcare too?


I am not as much being sarcastic as I am trying to deny the government the use of the term "the war on terror".

If they worked the war like the US did in WWII, they would become so unpopular that the war would be over in a week.
