The key to manipulative bargaining is to ask for something twice as big as what you want, then smile and nod when you are talked down to your original wish. You are still young, my apprentice, and have much to learn in the ways of the force. -UtM

1: B. In my opinion, the regim? needed to be felled... but America went about it in all the wrong ways.

2. C. No offense to my favourite action-movie hero ;) but that\'s all he is. Renowned for playing the part for the muscly, not-so-smart warrior, one-man-army or barbarian character in any film he appeared in... besides that one where he has a baby... but that\'s besides the point. :D He\'s an actor. Don\'t give up the day job, Arnie.

Jeez... I hate politics, so why did I just write this? :P

1: C - The regime may needed to have come down, but it certainly wasn\'t the US\' job, especially because they are no threat to the US\' sovreignity.  I\'d say it was mainly for \"Dub-ya\" to get revenge and oil.

2: N/A - I\'m not sure, yet.  I don\'t expect much to come from it, but what I\'ve heard from him so far is promising.  I\'m on DirecTV, and as they don\'t carry my local networks yet, I get the Los Angeles (and New York) local channels, so I get a good perspective on it.  However, he definatly has to be a great governor to overcome the legacy of the massive, messy recall.  Wait, he\'s a republican? Boo! Hiss! ;)

[edit]

Hey, wait... You posted this question after I made my post, really makes you think...

3: B - The Democratic party is great; definatly more modern than the Republicans; although I wouldn\'t say they are more productive than the Republicans at the moment...  However, as much as it pains me to say this, I seriously doubt we\'ll see a Democratic president in 2004; that is, unless they pull something out of their hats, and quick...

1: B. The regime was as random as my posts. In my opinion. Its gotta go. The US did it wrong tho.

Why did I just reply? Politics is about as pointless as me! :P

If one battle goes, another comes,
For hence that woe tide us in
in blood shed we receive
the one that killed our kin.
The burning flames, the dark shadow,
Those that change our will,
Join we will, to defeat,
the one and only Sin.

1: I neither support nor condemn the war.
2: I don\'t care if californians elect Osama. Its their state and they can go to hell with it. People are inherently stupid. Anything wise that they do is just a freak incident.
3: Politics is really about brains and money. I love it. I don\'t care for parties or their agendas. I like the way they manipulate the people.

BTW-
I dont care about Bush. He can stay on or go tomorrow. Its not like i\'m getting paid or thrashed by having him in office.

1:  Until anyone shows any capability to unite any of the crazy nations out there, Amercia needs to take it\'s finger out of everyone\'s butt and stop \"policing\" the world when and where it benefits America.  If we were really going to work towards taking down corrupt attrocity commiting regimes, Africa would be the place to start, not the Middle East.  But there\'s really nothing to gain down there, so of course we never will.  

2:  The Terminator will be sent from the future to stop Arnold from creating a computer that will enslave all humanity.

3:  No politicians do anything, they just talk.  And what they\'re talking about is irrelevant
Ninjas have feelings too.  Mostly they feel like dancing.

1. I was for the war for a while, but now I\'m having second thoughts.  Saddam is out, but nevertheless, it\'s hard to unite people of such big region and such massive propoganda. People change their points of view like crazy, just by watching the TV and believing in what suits them.  The US could succeed right now, but it\'s practically impossible.  Some want to cooperate, some pretend they want to cooperate, some don\'t.
 I think US should have finished Afgan before going into Iraq.  Iraq was way random to me.  One day you wake up and hear Bush talk crap about Iraq lol.  You know that it\'s been planned for a while...

2.  I love Arnold in movies, but recently I saw how the guy lived... He smokes lots of really expensive cigars, complains like a little girl if he doesn\'t have his manicure/pedicure, has a big collection of expensive shoes.  Not what I imagine a leader should be like...

3. C
Democrats are maybe just weak.  They mostly come from not so rich families and have harder time to bribe the media :)  But when they come together it looks like they are a pack of hungry wolves.

1.) C.) There should be an open door policy that if u believe that the war is justified then YOU go fight the damn bloody thing.

2.) B.) A trained monkey could do the job of govenor... (hell it might even do better =)

3.) The system stinks I aint even answerin that =)

As of december 4th Bush is gonna lose the swing states anyway as the EU are proposing a tax on some rather random things from there (eg: Harley Davidsons, Bubblegum and Orange Juice) (woot! dont piss off the EU!)

2) B/D: he\'ll probably do what its party/collaborators want.

3) D: No. They speak and that\'s all.

1:C,  this whole war is based upon \"weapons of mass destruction\" as everyone can see now, Iraq doesn\'t have any. All the americans want is revenge and oil.

2:D, as all american politicians seem to be stupid, it doesn\'t really matter who they choose. Arnold might even do a better job then the ones before him since he has been an actor for a long time and knows how to talk to a lot of people.

3:-, I think the whole american system sucks, there really are only 2 parties to choose from and only one of them gets chosen. i think all parties that get a vote should help eachother to form a new governement(this is how we do it in holland and it kinda works, at least it\'s democratic.)

1)B - Probably, Regime needed to go but America had other motives to got to war making it wrong (Blair followed cause he kisses anybodies ass if he thinks he sees personal advantage)

2)D - Are all you Americans nuts, first you let Bush who lost the election on votes but won on wierd points system (dodgy Florida vote!!) into office then you vote an actor into office because you saw him in some films!!!!! (Mind you looking at the caliber of world politicians he should fit right in)

3)I Dont Care as long as that nut Bush disappears. Hes got about the intelligence and foriegn acuman as a brick.

And before all the Americans start flaming me I dont like our current Prime Minister with Labour much at the moment either and the oppositions (Conservatives) got that much in-fighting that there quickly becoming the third party behind the Lib Dems who haven\'t had a go a cocking the country up yet.
