QUOTE (OrganisedConfusion @ Nov 4 2008, 05:23 AM)  Not long now. Obama better win but I still think McCain will somehow win because I don't think Americans will have the sense to vote for Obama. They like bloodshed whereas in the UK we don't and we are ripping Labour apart for going into Iraq. Sweeping generalizations about whole countries are usually sloppy thinking - the USA is made up of millions of people, each with their own diverse thoughts and opinions, a blanket statement like that is not only inaccurate, but also divisive and potentially insulting. I'm sure all the Iraqis that were killed by UK troops appreciated the fact that they didn't like the bloodshed - perhaps it hurt less as a result? Truth is, for better or for worse, both the UK and USA went into Iraq - claiming a moral high ground because the UK populace whined a little to the government about it is a little baffling to me. And you should be aware that there is also a movement over here protesting the USA's Iraq involvement - the USA is not 300 million zombies chanting for more military action in one voice - when you get down to it, they are just regular people like you and me and everyone else on GMC, so please, lighten up on the sweeping generalizations! -------------------- Check out my Instructor profile

If you have not voted, you probably have seen this, but just a reminder of what we are a 72 year old's heart beat away from if McCain were to win..... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tjZW4z9zqqY |

Heh, that's fine, I don't have a problem with your views ... don't agree with all of them but don't disagree with all of them either!
Having lived both in the UK and the US I now understand the differences and similarities between both places, and having myself been guilty of similar generalizations in the past, I try and avoid them now! -------------------- Check out my Instructor profile

Age seem to run on mothers side so you may very well see McCain for another 30 years. QUOTE (Noangels @ Nov 4 2008, 02:25 PM) I would pay good money to be locked in a room with Bush,Blair,Cheeney,Rummy and Alistair and I can honestly say there wouldnt be a trial needed afterwards  Now even your own?
