(USA < for all you Canadians who hate us Americans don't get mad that I call citizens of the USA Americans) presidental election you don't have a dog in this fight.

Edited for flamebait

Well, they do have opinions that can matter. The more the rest of the world agrees with who wins, the easier it will be to work internationally.

Shut up about the AMERICAN(USA < for all you Canadians who hate us Americans) presidental election you don't have a dog in this fight.
Sure they do--when the US sneezes, the rest of the world gets a cold. If you can't take the criticism, then maybe you ought to go ask your mommy for a cookie.

i agree with you, to some extent.

Well, they do have opinions that can matter. The more the rest of the world agrees with who wins, the easier it will be to work internationally.

Well I couldn't any care less about this so called "international community".

Shut up about the AMERICAN(USA < for all you Canadians who hate us Americans) presidental election you don't have a dog in this fight.
Well, I'm not Canadian. So I'll keep commenting when something interesting comes up.

Well, given that we're all a part of an international community, with which America interacts with, the outcome will have a global impact. For example, the outcome of the 2000 elections affected the lives of Iraqis, right? Each canidate has different foreign policies, which will determine our relationships with other countries down the road.

Despite the fact that I wouldn't put it past Bush to start another war, and the twittering fool we call a PM will sacrifice our soldiers?

Well I couldn't any care less about this so called "international community".
Well some do. Some Americans I might add.

Also, maybe you should. A nation can get a lot more done if it has other countries willing to help it.

If Bush was genuine in his wish to fight terrorism, he might have handled other nations better and got their help.

Well I couldn't any care less about this so called "international community".

So America should have it's own version of the old Soviet "Iron Curtan"? What about the trade dependant economy?

Well I couldn't any care less about this so called "international community".
Might I remind you that we aren't the only ones with the nukes?

Might I remind you that we aren't the only ones with the nukes?
Yes, well. It isn't as if N Korea could nuke the whole US.

Might I remind you that we aren't the only ones with the nukes?
But we have the most.

Yes, well. It isn't as if N Korea could nuke the whole US.

So a partial nuking would be but a trifle?

Shut up about the AMERICAN(USA < for all you Canadians who hate us Americans don't get mad that I call citizens of the USA Americans) presidental election you don't have a dog in this fight.
No.
Why should we? Or didn't they bother to explain the concept of 'freedom of speech' to you at school?
[sigh] Now I suppose I'll have to actually think up an opinion on the US presidential election...drat....still, rights must be not just won, but rewon...

But we have the most.

Doesnt matter how many we have. Having 1 is enough to decapitate a society.

Yes, well. It isn't as if N Korea could nuke the whole US.
Yeah, but China or Russia could. Hell, even the French have some. Any really pissed off country could just nuke the crap out of our major cities. We'd be in trouble if DC or New York were out of the picture.

Oh and Endo, it doesn't amtter if you have the most nukes when other countries have enough to destroy almost all life on earth through bombings and the nuclear winter that ensues.

Shut up about the AMERICAN(USA < for all you Canadians who hate us Americans don't get mad that I call citizens of the USA Americans) presidental election you don't have a dog in this fight.
sure, happy to. Does this mean i can tell you to shut the hell up about things that dont concern you like Israel, Chechnya and Afghanistan?

If the Republican administration would shut up about how Australian's should vote in our forth coming election. I'd be more sympathetic.

Given the fact that your government believes that we are going to the polls to vote for or against a Bush. I guess I'm free to express my views on the topic.

We may have gone "All the way with LBJ" in 1976 (I'm not joking that was the main campaign slogan for the winning side. But I don't think we should be going anywhere with GWB.

Eirica

Hmm, call me a cynic but I've had my suspicions that Enod may actually be an American Democratic supporter pissing about for some time. This thread has only raised them. "But we have more nukes" :rolleyes:

Waah! People who don't live in the US are expressing their opinions. Waah! They don't realize that we're the biggest and bestest country in the whole wide world. Waah! They're stinky and have poopie pants. Waah!
Grow the hell up.

If Bush was genuine in his wish to fight terrorism, he might have handled other nations better and got their help.

(Applause)

Its pointless to speak with such idiots.

The US's foreign policies since after WWII have created the terrorist problem. If it cared about what it did overseas and the lives of the people it was screwing with this problem wouldn't exist.

But since you don't care about foreigners...you must be supporting bad policy wich creates terrorists...

So you're pro terrorist then.

Shut up about the AMERICAN(USA < for all you Canadians who hate us Americans don't get mad that I call citizens of the USA Americans) presidental election you don't have a dog in this fight.


Shut up about Turkey when you talk about the EU. Tell that to your dummie that even can not point the country on a map while he is in Ankara.

Shut up about the AMERICAN(USA < for all you Canadians who hate us Americans don't get mad that I call citizens of the USA Americans) presidental election you don't have a dog in this fight.

Hmmm, stop meddling in the affairs of other countries then. Historically the US does it aaaall the time. Oh, and invading them just becuase you see fit, and talking endlessly about how the world ( and UN in particular ) wants to stop the US doing what the hell it wants to.

And please stop calling your president ' Leader of the free world'. Let us have our say about what antics he get's up to or we'll just feel further like we're under the psudo rule of an unelected tyrant/dictator.

I appluad your efforts to stop free speech and stifle debate though, good one! :D

If the Republican administration would shut up about how Australian's should vote in our forth coming election. I'd be more sympathetic.

(applause!)

But we have the most.

I was pretty sure the Russians had way more nukes than the U.S. Something like twenty thousand something, which I think is more than double what the U.S. has. Not that it matters; destroying the world once is enough.

I think this fool is a made up persona. No-one can be this cretinous.

I hope anyone under voting age gets to shut up as well. :rolleyes:

And people wonder about where the abundance of america-bashing comes from... Maybe from very vocal US citizens like you, Enodscopia, who combine stupidity with arrogance and simply dismiss the rest of the world as unimportant.

Really? Could you tell me more? I've not heard (we're not super great about reporting the rest of the world 'round here....) Is it an attempt to keep someone in charge that will keep troops in? Anyway....

Since the majority of the domestic policies in the US are handled through congress and agencies that the president can only influence to greater or lesser degrees, it could be argued that the primary function of the president is to be the face to the international community. We don't send the senate to meet with foriegn leaders, we send the president. Taking that into account, what the international community thinks of the president relivant. Thier say has a built in limit:They can't vote, which in the end is the only opinion that will matter. But saving that, I think it's fair to say that their opinions is something that should be taken in consideration when evaluating the whole. No, we don't let France decide our president. But-we have to consider if the president is going to be able to get anything done. Keep in mind that our lifestyle is reliant on people who don't live here buying our crap and selling us theirs. We're connected, sticking your head in the sand won't change that.

Shut up about the AMERICAN(USA < for all you Canadians who hate us Americans don't get mad that I call citizens of the USA Americans) presidental election you don't have a dog in this fight.

Ah, weeeellllll :) we told you something like that in WWI but did you listen? Nooooooo... I think lot of people from a lot of other countries did tell you that too, but did you listen there? Again noooooooooo... If the "glorious" american Paladin has the right to violently overthrow every government he doesn't like, the WE have AT LEAST the right to make fun of your government and other things....

Well I couldn't any care less about this so called "international community".

Then stop meddling in international affairs.

I think many americans are conserned about the international opinion.
It should not be hidden from them. If you don't want to hear it, just don't listen to it.

Shut up about the AMERICAN(USA < for all you Canadians who hate us Americans don't get mad that I call citizens of the USA Americans) presidental election you don't have a dog in this fight.NO! The US elections are not just the business of the US. Since the US is involved in so many dealings around the world it is of the greatest interest of the entire world community that the idiot in the White House is not re-elected. People are dying since Bush is in office in many parts of the world, so shut up and stop claiming non-Americans had no dogs in this fight.

But we have the most.

How many weeks ago were you released from your cardboard box? You're limited understanding of the world just seems to be based on the fact that you think somehow you are all powerfull.

But we have the most.Above all, what you have most is braindead retarded assholes.

I think this fool is a made up persona. No-one can be this cretinous.Glad to know I'm not the only one with this feeling. Have you noticed that MKULTRA hardly ever replys to Enodscopia, despite the fact you'd expect them to be at it like cat and dog? The sentence construction's similar as well....

I hadn't noticed until now...

We share the same damned land mass as you! So, you better damn well get used to our whining because we're not going to stop it...unless Kerry gets elected, in which case, it will stop until we find something we hate about him and feel compelled to whine about.

This has gone on long enough.

Enodscopia: Official Warning - Trolling
