New Mars Forums

Actually, I dont trust the mainstream, or i do trust what they have, but its not the most current news.  what you see on TV is old news. 

Your "common sense" is not so logical to me.  and vice versa, i suppose.  at least on this issue.

You saw a different interview than i did. 

second, saddam wasnt toying.  he used the months when bush was blustering around to hide the weapons somewhere else.

and i could find a source that says bush and saddam were having beer together last night...does that prove anything?  the media can write whatever it wants, ill believe it when i see the context of the source.

bush has the most powers ever granted to a president.  but abe lincoln was a good president.  a civil war would be considered a bit extreme conditions, dont you think?

but the democrats won the presidential election.  if it werent for bush throwing the war card out every few weeks, the republicans wouldnt have been voted in.  look at bush's horrendous domestic policy.  his economic policy has failed...1.2 trillion dollars would be nice right now.  his policy on the environment sucks...one of few countries that didnt sign kyoto.  His policy on power sucks...oil oil oil (only redemption is support of nuclear power).  His policies on freedom suck...anti-abortion, curtailing the freedoms of americans, closest thing to a dictator america has ever had.

war comes, approval rating goes up.  its a statistic fact.  bush sr lost because the war ended too early in his first term to cover up his economic screw-ups.  george w flounders when it comes to anything but war.  when our leader doesnt know the names of key foreign leaders, theres a problem.

Like what?  The misrepresentations that you have claimed to be such?  You have no evidence that they are?

And can they pull it off?  Well, he built a dozen palaces.  Funny how one day, "No, you cant look there"  and the next "Oh sure, come in!"  And those arent cheap palaces.  Im sure if he went to the UN and said, here, i have a billion dollars, Id like to buy bread for my people, they wouldnt have stopped him.

We also have pictures of Russian garbage trucks that Iraq has converted into mobile missle launchers...for what?  To sprinkle peace dust on israel?

it takes many months cal, youd be surprised.  i was...

government project.  yet another reason why i believe mars will need a strong central democracy...a strong government can get big projects done.

i saw a similar article from another source days ago, shortly after shenzou, (4 was it?) was launched.  good for them, at least somebody is making progress.  and with their political direction, i dont think we should fear space turning red...china will be a democracy in the next 20 to 50 years, if not in the next decade, in my opinion.

so what you are really saying cal, is that you merely follow what a person wrote down, and then was later interpreted by the catholic church, which was later interpreted by someone else, and someone else, and so on.

well, im convinced.

heheh, cool.

oh, im sure they have something.  and ill laugh if and when it comes out.

of course, everybody will say we framed them.

youre nitpicking.  the point is that beings without the means to create a system of currency obviously wont, so the argument that life hasnt had it for X years is invalid, because life was incapable up until evolution bestowed new abilities unto life.
