    Are you that oblivious? The US economy plays a HUGE HUGE HUGE roll in world economics. When you guys fuck shit up, it affects the whole world.

    Canada makes little to no difference in the world. We just export stuff that anyone could get from britain anyways.

        Not to mention all it takes is a war mongering cock head to push the wrong buttons and BOOM we are entangled in WW3. That is something I'd like to skip in my lifetime.

          I care about the clueless idiots like Bush being manipulated by huge companies/corporations to turn the world into a battlefield to make more money.

            Canada has the worlds 11th largest economy. Give your country a little more credit.

                Because many of us care about what happens in the world.

                I got many american friends, also outside the adult industry, and we often talk about politics, elections, ect. Just because a Scandinavian like myself care about what happens in the world doesn't mean I hate the US. Not even close.

                Plus, you never know who Bush invades next so I like to try and stay on top of things

                  I wish we'd cut off lumber to the US to show them what power / affect we actually do have on their economy. Price of lumber for houses in the US would skyrocket - would be good for anyone in the US who produces lumber if they have a local source.. but yeah. Our natural resources are very precious and we just let them be 'raped' for money now.. It's sad.

                        I care because you have over 40% of the world's weapons of mass destruction, and seem to enjoy using them far to much.

                        I would like to see a President who would use the word "peace" every now and then.

                                    Every day that moron Bush is in the white house has an impact on my life. I only get 2/3 of every dollar compared to what I got under Clinton, that 33% I´m "losing" every month. Don´t tell me that Bush doesn´t have any influence there, because he´s policies does have an impact on my life.

                                    Alsp, how anyone on this board can vote bush is beyond me - take a look at the his AG a/s/h/c/r/o/f/t - he´s pur number one enemy, but still there are people on this board that just doen´t get IT !!!!!!!

                                    I would exchange my national vote to a vote in the upcomin election in a heartbeat................

                                            You think Kerry is better??? Not that I'm that great a Bush fan. I'd like my civil liberties back.

                                            He really has not used the weapons of mass destruction. The convetional weapons seem to be doing enough damage.

                                            Point is unless something big happens, Bush will win in November. So we all have to get used to it.

I only get 2/3 of every dollar compared to what I got under Clinton, that 33% I´m "losing" every month. Don´t tell me that Bush doesn´t have any influence there, because he´s policies does have an impact on my life.

                                              Alsp, how anyone on this board can vote bush is beyond me - take a look at the his AG a/s/h/c/r/o/f/t - he´s pur number one enemy, but still there are people on this board that just doen´t get IT !!!!!!!

                                              I would exchange my national vote to a vote in the upcomin election in a heartbeat................
                                              interesting .. never really knew that

                                              Guess i learn something new everyday.....

                                                            I understand how powerfull our country is and everything else .. but it just seems other people are more interested in who is going to be the next president.

                                                            You can't vote for my president so why does your view matter ?

                                                            I dunno , politics are my weak point as you know

Price of lumber for houses in the US would skyrocket - would be good for anyone in the US who produces lumber if they have a local source.. but yeah. Our natural resources are very precious and we just let them be 'raped' for money now.. It's sad.

                                                                                he is probably full of shit..but the more it hink about it..i think he is right..if Bush is reelected..expect another major..and i mean major attack

                                                                                put Kerry in power..nothing will happen and some of your investors might even comeback
