Actually, he's an Englishman, and an ex serviceman himself
These are not mutually exclusive. Kind of like my accusing someone of being a welfare parasite, and your saying, "Oh but he's from England and has red hair." So what.
IvanT has a good and rational sense of life, but I see that I'll have to introduce him to Alice Rosenbaum (AKA Ayn Rand) and soon. A good start would be The Fountainhead.
BTW, from occupied ga, you are right on in your comments re big gov and 2A. You think it's bad in the US, here in frog occupied Canuckistan I just hope I get out before they set up the gulags.
Essentially we have an executive branch only, with no House/Senate as a check. Our senate consists of appointed sycophantic ruling party hacks.
Also, our executive/dictator comes to power not by the electorate choosing him from a set of candidates, but by virtue of gaining the most seats.
Our supremes are also appointed by the dictator, with no vetting at all.
We have no such protection as 2 terms and that's it.
Our current dictator is in his 3rd term
We have what that demonic Hillary wanted: socialized medicine.
As far as the WMD thread, this is just a means for the left media to continue to badger Bush. As George Jonas wrote in the National Post, an absence of evidence is not evidence of absence. For G-d's sake, Saddam Insane used them on the Iranians, Kurds, and Shiites.
Tyrrany + Technology = WMD.
