1. and he was given the Nobel Peace Prize too
I'd really REALLY like to know WHO submitted him for the award. Seriously -- the timing was impeccable. :sarcasm:

5. Because the US is an Empire regardless of who is President.
People like to forget that.

7. I've been wondering that too. It seems to me anymore we're entangled
in more countries than ever ... is the world getting worse and worse or are we contributing to it too much. And I feel like civil rights just erode more and more each day. And it's all very profitable for the MIC.

12. Bush wanted their oil. So, you had to be a big oil producer to get his attention.

14. He couldn't close Guantanamo so he's doing the next best thing -
- making sure no enemy combatants are captured alive to add to the prisoner population there.
