Are you saying you didn't originally post that quote, if not I'm not sure why it's acredited to you as I haven't edited anything just quoted it as normal! You sure you're not on something panda?

That's US politics for you...and I didn't vote for your President.

Contradiction panda you said it wasn't a war and what the fuck is a "semi-war" let me know what you're taking?

That's the only thing you've posted so far that makes sense and I'll agree with you.

Finally, do they call you panda because your eye-shadow get messed up when you whinge and cry? Get over it..politics is a dirty business full of lies and crooked politicians but it's the sytem we have and at the moment it's all we have.

The worlds running short on natural resources and face it matters are going to get worse not better. Accept that and live with it, we've all lived through the time of pleny and now like "wanker gribbs" says it's time for another famine. It's a fact of life that idiots like gribbs (and others) keep repeating history and blaming our ancestors for our current problems, the fact is humans don't learn by their mistakes and neither are they infallible.

In the meantime I'm going to eat my Larb Moo Pissette.
