I don't know? Maybe it has something to do with the USA fucking Iraq up so badly that there are 4,000,000 displaced persons there now? Or is that picture too big for you?

Zensee, can you ever answer a simple question or is that too difficult for you?

I thought that because you owe them was a simple enough answer. Seems I overestimated.


You still seem to believe that the USA is doing Iraq and the world a favour. Bush's strategy has increased terrorism and decreased security for everyone. Accepting 7,000 refugees is the very least the USA can do to compensate Iraqis for waging war in their country.

Wonderful question pahunkboy, Bush will allow 7000 in legally.
 The ones that can't get in that way....well.
Many people never mention that they have caught people from all over the world crossing through Mexico.
I don't know why people think only those from South America come through Mexico.
 
Texas Sheriffs Say Terrorists Entering US from Mexico -- 08/21/2006

They certainly come from all over the world and then come into the USA from Mexico.

This is why '' The war on terror '' is a complete and utter fallacy. And this why Americans and people in Britain need to wake up and smell the coffee. It's time to see the tricksters for exactly what they are.

If there was truly a war on terror and they were worried about dirty bombs, suit case nukes, biological agents or VX gas being smuggled into our country, the first thing to be accomplished by any prudent group of managers in charge of security and the greater welfare of the citizenry would be to tackle all external security measures and secure our borders. They've done absolutely nothing in this regard.

Take ten acquaintances that you know on the net, go into a chat room, pose the hypothetical above about protecting our citizenry, assign each person in the group a post in the hierarchy that's committed to the task at hand. Someone here then tell me that a consensus objective wouldn't be to close and maintain the security of our borders.

Then ask yourself why our government is not doing what you would do. Trust me….regardless of how much you’ve been brainwashed, it’s certainly not because they are smarter than you.

sounds like the very least he could do (and i do mean the very least) after murdering 100,000, most of those being women, children and elderly men, and permanently injuring untold thousands more, not to mention destroying their homes, places of business and religious temples....all for what? not a damn thing. sometimes i feel i'm going to suffocate from the shame of being an american.

current adminstration that is doing it.  I protested the war BEFORE we went over there, and I am proud that I did!
The only thing that many Americans have to be ashamed of us the current administration and its policies, period.

There is no starker proof of Bush's failure then the fact there ARE refugees.

UR, one minor detail which needs adding to above - the majority aren't remotely interested in politicians' scruples. Providing people have their posessions, life is grand. The majority of the people are as self-serving as politicians.

I wholeheartedly agree. Rampant consumerism and the fascination with toys is definitely a factor in our diminishing moral code.

Ok, I guess we can just forget the 2 million plus people that Saddam murdered.
Gee, he'd probably be up to 3 or 4 million murdered by now if he were still in power.
He had a little game of tying people up and throwing them off of 6 story buildings.
I wonder if we "owe" Europe for helping them rid themselves of Hitler as well?
I'm not in favor of the U.S. intervening or helping any foreign countries anymore.
And I'm not at all a fan of the Bush Administration.
