The only anime that I think is truly worth watching is Full Metal and Death Note. Naruto has a ******** story line, but it's good.

I haven't watched Bleach, so..

Naruto anime stopped being good after Naruto vs Sasuke. Theres still some good moments in shippuuden but the Anime is too inconsistent and slow at times and it takes away from the worth of the show. Just read the manga, its so much better.

Yu Yu Hakusho is still the best though! Glad Im watching it again.

You're probably right. All these flashbacks and fillers are really turning me off Shippuden. Much more into Bleach anime atm.

Obama and the Democrats are cutting funding for our own military jets, thus causing a decrease in American jobs, but it's cool with them to spend millions of dollars installing stoves in western Asian.

This November, you can help fix this type of garbage and make Congress turn red, thus halting the President's stupidity! :)

stop being a republican cheer leader. the Democrat politicians and Republican politicians are basically just as bad as each other.

democrats are heading in the wrong direction at 100 MPH

republicans are heading in the wrong direction at 80 MPH


Both sides talk a completely different game from each other but when it comes to actual policy they do the same thing.


And it's laughable to say that we should be growing are military just to build jobs. When did the (Federal)government decide that the economy was any of it's business

And no, I'm not a libertarian

^ this is what n00bs say because they find it easy to paint all politicians with a broad brush

there are obvious and huge differences between the two parties

one his big government, one is small government

don't let Bush fool you; most Republicans nerf government, he just didn't

No, it's not. It's what got us out of the Great Depression, not FDR's BS which actually extended it. Did you fall asleep in history class?

The country has to be protected by the government, which means a military is needed. It's in the Constitution. The military is funded by the government, but the things used by the military are created by the private sector; about 100,000 jobs are going to be lost due to the this funding cut, jobs specifically in Ohio and New Jersey.

What makes me lose faith is how lobbyists and special interests control everything.

It's all about money.

As Woodward and Bernstein said, "Follow the money."

If you do that, you'll see just how much BS there is. ~_~

To paraphrase Lewis Black, "What's the point of voting? You got two bowls of **** to choose from. One just smells a little different from the other."

Actually I know what I'm talking about. I've done a lot of research and have actually talked to the people running for governor in my state.(Erlich, O'malley) If republicans were for small government why haven't any of them actually tried to make it smaller for the past 80 years.

Like I said before, they talk different games but end up doing the same(basically). Their main differences are on small irrelavent things. The problem is they both have the wrong starting point for how our government should be run


Since you want to bring up the constitution let's talk about the constitution.


our founders were against a standing military and were for malitia. Why? Because if you have a monster of a military yo're GOING to use it.




Article 2 section 8(The Powers of congress):


To raise and support Armies, but no Appropriation of Money to that Use shall be for a longer Term than two Years;

This means that they can't give money to an army for more then 2 years at a time. Which basically means you can't have a standing military because they would have to give it money for more then 2 years.




PS: MY arguments would be worded way better if I wasn't about to go to sleep

Reagan tried to make it smaller. He was the best.

lol, Founders. The Founders would literally shoot every member of Congress right now if they came back to life. No joke.

Too bad Congress can literally ignore anything due to one simple line in the Constitution saying they can do anything if it's for the general welfare of the nation or something, lol, which includes maintaining a standing military, something we, and every other nation, needs in order to defend its people.

I didn't go to a public school >.>

Whatever we have still isn't working anyway. Trillion dollar debt to mostly China/Japan, Poverty off the charts, infant mortality, hate crimes, etc.

Then we try to force democracy on Iraq. force...democracy...two words that shouldn't be used together ever.

**** it wake me up when Communism comes back.

The reason nothing good is happening is because (1) the Democrats don't know how to use their majority and (2) the Republicans filibuster just about every bill. They have filibustered over 200 bills since Obama came into office. **** has gone down and as a leader, Obama is forced to make cutbacks with the current budgets. I think honestly if the Republicans actually decided to agree to some bills that will help people out, things would be better off in this country. The Republicans are just sore losers since they lose the election so they basically make it so that nothing gets done.

Btw, Inui is correct that the military funding caused by WWII was one of the biggest if not the biggest reason we got out of the Depression.

@ gimr - the US government (or at least how it's chosen) is a democratic republic. Democracy just means that the people decide the government and republicanism means that government is chosen by election rather than heredity.

What's with the salty response? I don't care about something that I have very little say in. Take the MK ban for instance; even if I did vote "yay" or "nay" it's not like my vote really mattered that much because the BBR ultimately decided against it. Same with politics. Congress is gonna do what Congress wants to do.

Besides, I don't know/care enough about politics to get into a heated discussion about it.
