And I am careful about interest that are persued within the specific bias presented. That what every citizen should do in my view. I live in the US and we have freedom of the press and we get our news from all over the world. Do you live in a country that censors your news? No, did I imply that? where? Well thank you. Now I don't have to think anymore. I just have to repeat, Reagan was the driving force, Reagan was the driving force. You are welcome. Don't you even understand irony when it's that thick? What would the amount of casualties be when Bush hadn't started war on false pretences? Or am I using biased information? The children of Iraq would still be starving due to Saddam taking all of the Oil for Food money and building more palaces. Do you mean the children that we're starving befor or after the years America supported Saddam ? What is it with this obsession with winners and losers.... There are always winners and losers in everything you do. The fact that you abhor competition and desire to seek consensus is very telling. What makes you think (wrongly) I abhor competition? Or is that synonymous with fighting to you, hm... very telling indeed... Seeking consensus is not a bad thing. You should take a modern course in negociation or google for "prisoners dilemma". It resembles co-existing a bit better tham your boxing-ring. It may enlighten you that when both parties communicate intelligently the total outcome can improve a lot. I'll try it again in even simpler terms.... In thinking in simple winning/losing you always settle for a suboptimal result. Tell me, who is winning, the intelligent negotiator who finds a mutual interest and achieves a combined succes (that would be me in this little comparison) or the boxer who knocks everything down he doesn't directly understand (and that would be you)? Or is this too much a braincracker for you...? An American, you are not! |
