crazy like a fox ...
I woke up this morning with the thought of that scene in Austin Powers when he first wakes up from cryo-sleep and sees the Russian General there with the Brit and the American...

"...we sure showed those capitalist bastards, eh comrade?"

uh, the cold war is over, we won...

groovy, yay capitalism! :thumbsup:


-----so, what IF those "damn commies" are really crazy like a fox?
How long does it take for the bush-cheney-gop-warmachine-crimefamily take to implode?

We have spent (at least in terms of "recent memory") eight years bleeding the entire counrty dry in order to line the pockets of an elite few whose only goal is to 'win the game' at any cost...human life, infrastructure, etc...just in the name of their own personal gain.

Meanwhile the Russians have played it close to the vest, quietly building their army in their own borders, waiting for something to erupt nearby. The instability of the neighboring states folowing the fall of the Soviet Union is textbook geopolitical science. They watched the stupidity of Bush (hard not to notice the chimpenfurher's antics) ...and slowly, perfectly, the devolution of our country took place. Actually to bring a country as big and strong as America to its knees in such record time, takes a special kind of idiocy and greed.

So we are stretched beyond our means, trying to hold an election, having breakdown in our own ranks as the people get more upset, the two wars are bubbling over and everyone is just plain SICK of WAR. Russia knew hat Afganistan would boil over again soon, (that was their Iraq, and they knew when to get out) And all was not well....especially since we were distracted by Iraq. And we were SO blatant about starting that war, we set the precedent that a superpower could take over an oil interest and nobody would do shit about it....so who are we to whine?

now all the chickenhawks can do is make alot of noise and flap their wings.
And the fox will just go on about his business,
picking off whomever he sees fit, because we are truly powerless to do anything.

yep, we sure showed those capitalists, eh comrade?
