it's not about wether or not he's a terrorist. It's about the senseless loss of life and the accountability of a country for it's actions. we, non-war mongers, think the great drunken jock of the world, America, should recognize that our loss of life during september was due to our inability to take responsibilty for our actions and to participate fully in our world community. Our capitalism, though a great idea in theory, hasn't kept it's promises. Instead of letting the kindness of our hearts take over and produce the famed trickle down effect, we fostered our greedy, self-serving sides. And, over time, the kindness of the system disappeared. So now, like communism, we have found that this whole capitalism thing doesn't necessarily work in everyone's favor. Yet, we keep pushing it on other countries, and our democracy, which hasn't really been doing that well for us lately either. I agree with a post i read earlier, not all of us are represented by the extremist of the republican party.
