The bu$h cabal will torque off enough the rest of world

[RC]

they will unite against us, US. It will start out as a more civilized war against us. The US having outsourced so much we will have a hard time defending against outside trade shortages of the parts needed for the war machine, denying permission for US troops on foreign soil, overflights by US aircraft, switching to the Euro. Feeding our operatives false information on operations. Declaring the US off limits to foreign tourists would further hurt local economies. For example Hawaii would be brought to its knees in less than a year, more than likely less than 6 months even.
We can't fight the entire world if it is united against us, US. The damage we do now is only because we have the cooperation with enough of the rest of the world. A small handful of world leaders saying "Enough already" could start the stopping of the once greatest country in the world. There are other John F. Kennedy's in other lands that can call our leaders bluff when things get bad enough.


On the bombing in Pakistan: This is what happens when you spend too much of your time and resources spying on your own people and cooking the information coming in from the outside that is needed to do the job right.

Truth has a liberal bias, so therefore it has no place in bu$h's world.

!$@#&!! Why doesn't proof reading before posting work?

1. You don't understand

People like Cheney and Rummie don't want to do it right.

2. All they have to do is turn off the oil. How many days would be last

with no oil imports? And don't forget Florida for foreign travel too.

3. Oh, yeah. Oil!

How could anybody forget.

4. If we screw with Iran

we seriously piss off the Chinese which at this point in time we DO NOT want to do - they demand some of what we owe and WHAM there goes the economy. Yeah it would foul up the rest of the world but maybe it would also finally slow down or stop this insanity.

5. The thing is - how badly does China need our buying binges.

The rest of the world is picking up what they import. Most of the stuff we buy is crap. And by crap I mean stuff that the survival of anything depends on. How many little plastic toys does the world need? How many plastic decorations and plastic flowers does the world need?

Turn off the oil and drop the dollar. I bet we wouldn't last a week.

6. China is selling us crap, but also buying our T-Bills to prop up our

debt. They hold a lot of them already, too. If they decide to quit propping up the dollar, the SUVs we have will be handy for hauling the wheelbarrow of cash you'd need to pay for the gas to fill one up with...

[FloridaPat]

7. Actually you could have something there. Those SUV's are big.

People can live in them. When the housing bubble busts and the dollar is worthless, and oil too expensive to buy, just move into the SUV!

8. "Turn off the oil and drop the dollar. I bet we wouldn't last a week."

Oh you're right. I meant if they were to ask for repayment on a large portion of the debts we owe them - they're one of the biggest financers of our deficit spending. You know in your own life that you can't keep piling on debt with plastic and get away with it forever. The wars and insanity will stop when the money faucet is turned off and when the oil finally runs down too low.
