Ya, thats how I looked at it, you said stupid americans. If that one part was left off it wouldnt of ticked me off. You explained the first two little blerps, whats the reasoning of the third?

I am not implying anything. I said what the news said. I even took out the

because you seemed to think that meant something.

For your information, as I said above, I'm an american too. I was born and live in the US.

Now if you want me to be politically correct hmm I could say.. "Stupid some Americans whom may or may not have mental disabilities that render them unable to perform equal tasks, and therefore cannot be compared to ourselves, unless they do not in which case they have a lower intellegence then ourselves."

What can I say,

I am sorry to hear that these people have died, my condolences go to their families and their respected contries.

Accidents happen but when they are of this calaber it is something tragic.

Please have a moment of silence for those that died and those that where involved in this bombing...

Long Live all Countries!

there i took it out now no one will feel offedend because I insulted myself...

Thank you Chan, that wwas response i was looking for *refrains from making sarcastic comment at this point*

and let me add - I don't mean every person is stupid, but you have to admit sometimes the government does stupid things - remember back during our last war, we 'accidentally' bombed the chinese embassy? And their explanation was "We were using outdated maps"? Well whose fault was that, not much of an excuse......

A: We elected Bill Clinton
B: OJ got aquited
C: We allow ourselves to be taxed out the bejesus and no one seems to really care
D: We havn't already taken the lives of Sadam Hussein/Arafat

LOL computer I can understand 1 2 and 4, but you don't know anything about taxation until you move to Canada, specifically the province of Quebec. By the end of the year, the government has taken more than 50% of your salary here.

SOAPBOX TIME
1. WAR IS HELL and Friendly Fire incidents do happen. It is impossible for them not to happen no matter how carefull one is.
Yes it is sad that these troops had to pay the ultimate price for being soldiers, but pointing fingers will not bring them back.

2. If you did't vote in the election how can you say we elected xxxxxx.
It's a sad fact that here in the US the voter turn out is so low, even worse if one were to take the number of people who cold vote but haven't register to do so. I have voted in every election since I was old enough to do so even when I was in VietNam.
Please don't complain about our government unless you vote.
Soapbox put away again.

and our other choice.....

Gore owns and rents out a trailer in Carthage, Tennessee for $400 a month. In the summer of 2000, Gore's property managers and family friends, Audrey and Charles Elrod, tried to evict tenant Tracy Mayberry (pictured above, with her husband) after she complained about a lack of repairs to overflowing toilets and backed up sinks. They claimed that Mayberry and family had run the place down and clogged up the septic system with toys and garbage.
After bad publicity, Gore overruled the Elrods, said the Mayberry's could stay, and -- claimed a Gore spokesman -- fixed the place up. But Mayberry was not impressed. "Right now, I still say he's a slumlord," she said. "In my opinion that's exactly what he is." She said that the work was never completed, it was sloppy and that one toilet still leaks. She moved out, and seven Republican activists drove her and her family up to a new home in Lima, Ohio.

Postscript: Police were called on the Mayberry family twice in their first two days in Lima. First, for parking on their lawn, and second, for a report of a fight. No arrests were made.
