Thanks Mark I don't mind at all [img]smile.gif[/img]

 Kaltia LOL [img]smile.gif[/img]

What, it's true [img]tongue.gif[/img]
*realises how far off-topic she has gone and doesn't care either ;) *

I see it is an article about people..immigrants coming to this country with nothing and proving that in America it isn't just the rich that can succeed....an article loaded with several examples of what this country is all about. I also see he is telling them that while we need to send our armies out, we can also love others as we love ourselves...seems to me it was more directed at the people from other nations living here with us but it works on an international level too I suppose. All in all a cool speach, full of proofs about the promise of America [img]smile.gif[/img]

If you had a hand in creating the mess...you should have a hand in cleaning it up. Thats why i do approve of USA's current stance on Iraq. I'm not looking to blame the US for the problems over there...Obviously Hussein is the evil one here.

Iran wasnt running roughshod over the whole middle east..it was Iraq that started that war in an attempt to capture most of the persian gulf but he met greater resistance from the Iranians than anticipated.

EDIT> i said originally that Iraq started the war to capture the whole persian gulf...where i meant mainly the eastern side of it.

I realized that I came on stronger than intended... so I'd already edited my post... sadly my self-auditing was too slow... consider this an apoligy. [img]smile.gif[/img]
