    As an American, Do YOU have the balls?

    to say enough is enough with our broken govt? I am not a conspiracy nut, but I think the next few years are going to very bad for US citizens. I have no illusions that US citizens can replace congress or the other two branches of govt, but I do feel that the US needs a major shakeup to get rid of corruption and special interest groups within the US govt. that are creating the US and foriegn policy via our congress and president.

    I fear that someday my children will be asking me why we (US) didn't do something when we had the chance...

    IMHO, the US has been the greatest nation of all human times, but without a dramatic change, we (US) will become another fallen empire that will be read about the same way as the past Romans and Greeks, etc...

      Whats funny about your post FLY is that it's not even about Bush. IMHO it's the whole govt that's broken. Bush is just a cog in the wheel.

      Most people dont know that as US citizens, we have the constitutional right to otherthrow the govt if we dont believe that they are pursuing the will of the people..

      My point of this thread was to see how many others are fed up with the US govt and would be willing to act on the words that so many spew here on GFY...

            I wish you the best of luck. I hope you make it back OK. Are you going as military or as a contractor? If contractor, I have a friend there that might be able to guide you....

                Military. I Will do my mission as it is set out. I will also have the lingering thoughts about why we are actually doing this. Who it helps and who it hurts. Not a fun way of going down range ;)

                  I agree that our government is broken.

                  However, I think our foreign policy is fine under GWB. I am afraid we will not have the balls to finish the job in Afghanistan, Iraq, and Iran and stick with it for another decade.

                  I am very worried about: Iran becoming a nuclear power because nobody has the balls to stop it, widespread welfare fraud, unions corrupting our state and federal governments, immigration policy which is way beyond broken, illegal aliens draining our financial resources via taking social services to which they are not entitled, the threat of socialized medicine, the threat of socialism in general, our trade deficit with China, espionage by China and Russia which is at Cold War levels, China's rise as a military power funded by US dollars and build on US technology, a terrorist group with a nuke, etc.. --that's what really worries me.

                    "He said he's going "back". He might know his way around..."

                    With your reasoning, I guess he knows where all the IED's are? Do you think he will be issued a new "IED Location" map when he gets there?

                    I would rather stick an M80 up may ass then be sent to Iraq. Not because I am a pussy and afraid to fight, but because Iraq is not a fair fight and because the "mission of Iraq" has been fucked since the start...

                    For fucks sakes, even our diplomats say going to Iraq is a death sentence..

                        The alternative is to go back to Bill Clinton's policy of No Foreign Policy, which directly set us up for 9/ 11. What's the cost? Al Qaeda has already promised that their next attack will make 9/11 look like a picnic.

                          Daddy: One of the most coherent and inteligent responses I have seen here. We (US) have more issues locally then we do overseas with the exception of China. Corporate America is building a military (China) that IMHO is going to bite us in the ass in the next 10 years..

                          My point all along has been, let's fix domestic issues first before we (US) try to worry about International issues...

                                  Every country has its issues, right now it seems the U.S. is in the spotlight. but this is nothing new especially with all the governments around the world.

                                  France? lets not even go there, corruption seems to be an acceptable practice there as well.

                                  Gernamy? Lets not get into their history

                                  Italy? lets not go there either

                                  England? Gee there is a colorful past to talk about but im not in the mood for it.

                                  Russia: Hrm...

                                  China: oh yeah, theres a role model

                                      All of a sudden we are supposed to believe that IRAN is this all powerful potential death sentence for the free world ( I remember getting this about Iraq not too long ago) ... I guess the "Suspension of Disbelief" isn't something that just works in the movies.

                                      Iran couldn't take Saddam for 8 years ? How long did it take for us to own that fucker. Does everyone lose their common sense when we get the fear alerts everyday on CNN ...

                                          I couldnt agree more, but like I was saying when I started this thread, do we have the balls to do it?

                                          If we can make up a reason to invade Iraq, why can't we just get Iran over with? I support an invasion of Iran if it means that controlling oil will make the US a stronger country and help secure our power.

                                          Even though China and Russia are growing on a daily basis, I truly belive the US has the most advanced weapontry in the world. Lets strike while we still have that edge....

                                            problem is people don't like change, they don't like uncertainity.

                                            the govt has been doing this to the people since Post Depression ages, they create services to make us happy, and the we become reliant on them, when we have problems, they make more things to make us happy, and therefore more reliant.

                                            people don't want to think about if we got rid of current setup, would we all lose SSN, medical and all this other shit.

                                            and then b/c ppl are now so reliant, and selfish, they'll settle for the easiest road possible until it becomes deplorable, but by then MacDonalds & Friends will have made everyone so fat, the rebellion will be quelched by free burgers and fries.

                                            and I'm a proud American, its really the populations fault this shit has gotten so bad. greatest thing about living in the Philippines, I left my credit cards and u cant get them here, now I live on what I make. I want something nice, I save for it or spend less in other areas.

                                            We just need to open our eyes and get off the govt teet.

                                                Iran couldn't take Saddam for 8 years ? How long did it take for us to own that fucker. Does everyone lose their common sense when we get the fear alerts everyday on CNN ...
                                                That might have been true during the first gulf war but now we have the Fox News Propaganda Channel. CNN no where nearly as bad.

                                                    I got the balls enough to say that the US government is not broken, it needs some revision perhaps but not a complete overhaul.

                                                          What sucks about GFY is there is like 10 threads going on about how bad america sucks or this or that and none of them are started by americans. But everyone and their mother here is complaining about their biggest source of revenue for this industry.

                                                          Maybe we should stat a patriot campaign across the united states. Since the rest of the world fucking hates us so bad lets do a domain check on any porn site we are about to visit and make sure they are american owned since everyone hates us so much.

Newsflash buddy, this isn't the 1700's we all dropped the Empire state of thought a long time ago, seems as if the USA is still holding onto it, backwards country in the foreign policy area much? Either way, the first step is to ADMIT there is a problem and then see what you can do to fix it.

I am very worried. Nobody has the balls to stop them.

It's rigged against you, nothing you can do to change it. When you step into the election booth every November, you have two choices. Despite a few fringe issues that don't matter, those two choices are basically the same. It's impossible for a 3rd party to run.

                                                                                    While I'd love to believe that fairy tale of going into the voting booth and changing my country, there is nothing that can be done anymore to change. This country is what it is.

You need lots of money now to make change.Thats why if bloomberg runs he can make that change because he wont owe anyone.

After 911 everyone was ready to give up all their freedoms to feel safe. They dont realize the main goal of terrorizism isnt to kill its to create fear and that has happened. its makes me sad thinking about it.
