But I let the subscription lapse when I went cruising because you can find it on news stands everywhere. I rarely find a "New Scientist" on display.

That's not the point. Do you think Bush and Company had nothing to do with the last seven years? Stephen It seems that in history, a society or country is judged by its actions and impact upon and relationships with those around it. If you are personally very happy with the US role and actions in the world and with the performance and end state of the US economy as it is today, regardless of its impact upon you and your pocket, then for you the Bush government must be a good one. Then there is morality and the judgment of history. Maybe it may take a different view. What did the Bush government do to improve the lot of its citizens? War on drugs? - drug use is increasing. War on terror? citizens now seem more paranoid and afraid yet they are no safer. More jobs? No, unemployment is constantly on the rise. Housing?, Welfare safety net improved? Education? Less taxes? initiatives for greener, less polluting technology? Morality? What is moral about invading another sovereign state on a trumped up litany of lies without the given consent of the other member states of the UN to make your mates rich? I can't personally think of anything they did do excepting kill off a few more of its disadvantaged youth and discredit the USA in the eyes of the rest of the world. Its citizenry abroad are now far less safer than they were under Bill Clinton. Peter |

She can't do any worse and she would be a lot more interesting to watch on television. Peter |

If you are personally very happy with the US role and actions in the world and with the performance and end state of the US economy as it is today, regardless of its impact upon you and your pocket, then for you the Bush government must be a good one. Well, what I said is that things have been good for me. I'm not looking at forced regime change in Iraq or a president getting a blow job for answers on how my life is. Then there is morality and the judgment of history. Maybe it may take a different view. What did the Bush government do to improve the lot of its citizens? War on drugs? - drug use is increasing.

What is moral about invading another sovereign state on a trumped up litany of lies without the given consent of the other member states of the UN to make your mates rich? You do know that Congress makes the laws, right? And why are you blaming the President for all of those things? Do US presidents really have that much power? The blaming makes no sense and the lynch mob mentality holding Bush responsible for all of it is nothing more than mass hysteria. I can't personally think of anything they did do excepting kill off a few more of its disadvantaged youth and discredit the USA in the eyes of the rest of the world. Its citizenry abroad are now far less safer than they were under Bill Clinton. I wouldn't worry too much about the "discrediting." The US has been saving the world's asses for about a hundred years now and that doesn't appear to be about to change anytime soon. When they see how much better off Iraq, Afghanistan and the Middle East are ten years from now, along with whatever else we happen to have to do to stand up for freedom, they'll be singing a different tune. Or, the good people will anyway. There will still be tyrants trying to drum up hate against the leader of the free world though. Careful you don't let them fool you. Stephen |

Stephen Like in Vietnam, and Cambodia. I thought you got reamed in Somalia and never went back. Also, by our history books World War I started in 1914, not when the US decided to join. WWII started in September 1939, not over two years later when you finally decided to get involved after Pearl Harbour. Prior to that, several million Chinese had been killed since 1937 by invading Japanese forces without the US being concerned at all. The way I hear history told from many Americans, they were the sole combatants against the Japanese and Germans. Was Korea a victory for UN troops? Doubt it. It finally ended in a stalemate. I do not discount US involvement in the first and second World Wars, and like most people, do sincerely appreciate the US getting involved when it did, but please, don't pretend that you "saved the world's arses" . As for Iraq, Afghanistan and the entire Middle East being better off, you might find that history will evolve to negate Western involvement just as the Crusades in actuality made no more impact than a mosquito bite on an elephant's rear end. You (and the many allied troops - it is not solely a US war) can never win in Afghanistan for many of the same reasons you could have never won in Vietnam, but then we don't talk about our defeats do we? As for tyrants... This has gotten way off topic. Peter |
