No War Has Ever Been Fought In The Name Of Independence, Borders, or Succession
Edited on Sun Aug-12-07 10:00 PM by Boojatta
Okay, maybe a few wars have been fought over some of those things. However, no war has ever been fought in the name of bad puns or bad jokes. Hence, bad puns and bad jokes are not so bad.

2. Not All Wars
Some wars are fought to ensure people will have certain rights. Although the founding fathers failed in bring independence to all people in America the fight seemed mostly to have independence. In addition, I contend that even though World War II may have had its flaws a part of the war was fought to prevent a horrible man from taking over the world or all of Europe.

Were you just trying to be sarcastic with your comments? If you weren't I do realize you have a right to express them. However, if you were being sarcastic I did not mean to be too serious. Once someone wrote something and I replied to them that I disagreed with them. They later told me they were just trying to be sarcastic with the previous post.
