I hate James
Well, Ok, I don't really hate James at all, but it seems much more dramatic that way. It seems that whenever I reply anything to a Bush/Kerry post or whatever on someones MyO he picks up on it and rants. Even someone with an opposite political view I don't really get bothered by, but he somehow pisses me off every time. He has this idea that he knows everything about the two candidates and any contrary thought is ignorant. First off, its impossible to represent yourself as well informed on the internet unless you care to go into really really long posts (I'm much too lazy for that). If you are James, however, all you have to do is give some blanket statements like "I follow American Politics very closely" or "most Kerry supporters know little about him". Its all so high and mighty like he's some expert and somehow not just an internet nerd (like the rest of us). I know the man is intelligent, but you can still be an ass at the same time. You can also fairly disagree with me about whether war in Iraq will save American Lives (so far killed 1000+) but thinking about the damage we have done to those people makes me sick. In all likelihood over 10,000 people have died there. (I messed up on the HC post and wrote 100,000) Their lives are NOT worth more than ours. Iraqi's have done nothing to hurt us, ever. It all so fucked, I think we might need to see some of the things that are happening as more than just blurbs on TV to snap out of it. Families with soldiers in Iraq might understand better than any of us, but we all need to think about whats happening and put ourselves in their place (Iraqi's). The world is scary, and the USA is a big cause of it.
(to see why I'm so mad, check out Heaven's Clouds Oct. 28th post) Oh, and I don't really like Kerry that much, but I think that even if he is very opportunistic he can see more clearly the pain that war causes (I hope).
