tie national health coverage to a flat tax and no one will call him a leftist liberal.

uh, who said that Clinton? As far as I know, "respond today" doesnt mean invade them today... And as far as I know, nearly all nations agreed that Saddam represented a possible threat... thats why inspectors returned.... As for the WMD statement... well maybe Clinton should have used the term "with possibly" ... Clinton is not perfect..

For the world war exemple... my point was that it can happen again... dont use history as proof that everything will be alright... THe world is continualy evolving...

Bush has fucked up everything!

i love this guy, nice attitude and simple. non-showbizz and makes quality movies.

doesn't look like inthe 40's for me.

:thumbsup

true now he will get another 4 fuckin years

good guy
he prefer to live in our country :Graucho

He is a great actor and good looking that´s all I know!

Yeah, maybe he should have qualified that but of course he didn't because he believed Saddam had them - at least if one took him at his word - and I did. You are displaying exactly the kind of partisanship that I just wrote about. You're trying to give Clinton credit for believing something in opposition to his numerous statements to the contrary. There are at least dozens of times where Clinton alluded to Saddam's WMD's. That is of course exactly what I was pointing out. Both administrations thought Saddam had WMD's. Both administrations publicly said so.

If Clinton didn't believe Saddam has WMD's, George Bush was fighting a war only of liberation. I mean, come on. Let's be consistent in our criticism.

As far as "history". Again you are not reading what I am saying. I never said history is proof that a world war will never happen. In fact, it would surprise if there weren't some day. I never said anything even remotely like your interpretation.

What I said is"with the whole of history on my side I'll say it's hard to take any such comments seriously". Translation: "take any such comments seriously" refers to the comments directly above it in the post.

What that means is that history shows every administration is considered "the worst" by quite a whole lot of people. I didn't take the Republicans seriously who thought it of Clinton. I don't take the Democrats seriously who thought it of Bush. Why? Because both will be complaining just as vehemently about the next set of Democratic and Republican presidents. It has little to do with reality and everything to do with politics. Such politics have been typical since the founding of the Republic.

A side note. Many lessons can be drawn from history. One might be that any small event can turn into a large conflict. Another might be that dealing with ambitious totalitarian leasers is best done early. Usually people pick and choose in order to tell a story that correlates with their beliefs of what action should or should not be taken.

Im not gay but that dude looks good for 40!

Please post a link to anywhere the french said saddam was an ok guy.

Depp is a fucking moron.

True, but he was appointed not elected.

Do some research on Johnny Depp. He is not in the business for the money..

:)

I can't wait.. Love those Robert Rodriguez films...

I bet it's a bit like Desperado... http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg...v=glance&s=dvd:Graucho

:1orglaugh

Way to go Johnny.

And before he was elected president, Ronald Reagan was...?

He also said he was 'bored' by all the Sept 11 stuff. That quote was somewhere around Sept 12th 01.

It's trendy to be 'anti-american' right now.
Everything recycles.


Give it time, he'll get bored with that too.

The pretty ones just shouldn't speak...I already had to remove him from my laminate list the day I found out he had tiny little hands...




:(

Katie

because you dont agree with him? :1orglaugh

100 ways to hate our gov

Johnny Depp owns. :thumbsup

An American voicing criticism against America is NOT anti-American. What is the person? Anti-himself? It's actually one of the most American things to do.. speak out your opinion and criticize the status quo if you disagree with it.

Remember, this country was founded on dissent, let's not forget that.

how stupid. no one cares.

good move Johnny!!
i salute you on your bravery!

his movies sux anyways

he is smart men ! well done

I'd fuck him..

ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm mmmmmmmmmmmmmm

So is Fear and Loathing

he's right

Being an American living overseas I can relate to Depp, but don't agree with his statements. He must feel very strongly though as celebs are usually very careful about the image they project and the public statements they make.

Depp is an artist and will prefer lesser paying roles that he relates to then big major role in junk movies ( he wouldn't of played "the Hulk" ...)

He is not the only artist expressing himself:

G O O D S T U F F :thumbsup

wouldn't have

yea, he is talented and is not an idiot for expressing his thoughts. too worried people may listen to him and have second thoughts about the current government?

Excelent post.

I'm dead tired of hearing that anti-american shit. You can critic and like a country.

Yes, you can. Believe me, It's possible.... dumbasses. :1orglaugh

Why do you hate America?

My favorite Depp movie. The book is even better, of course.

So you've taken a lot of drugs then, Colin?

Used to do some. None anymore. Now I work out 7 days a week, eat well, and live a much healthier lifestyle.

Regardless, I think Hunter Thompson is one of the best writers of the 20th century. His tempo is deft. Breakneck. His word usage is harsh and fits his stories. His writing has great voice.
