    #5364649 - 03/04/06 01:48 PM (18 years, 29 days ago)

you can watch this video and hear it straight
from our Leader Goerge W. Bush:
"...democracies are peaceful countries."
watch: http://www.ifilm.com/ifilmdetail/2696762
click the green button that says watch.
lol this video is fuckin sweet.they made abeat using george bush's voice from a sample using his speech.  :crazy2:
look at that machine gun that takes
out that car, it looks like something from Halo 2.
george bush is awesome (end sarcasm). :mad:

its pretty fucked up. if you listen to the voice in that turret video the guy says " i see numerous individuals (didnt say hostiles or terrorist or what)
want me to take em out?". its like yeah whatever just kill em. not like it matters anyways its for democracy.

I don't see why Bush, or any of his speech writers, would say such a thing. America was founded on a bloody revolution, and part of the founding ideals of our government is that if your government is oppressing your rights, and will not yield to peaceful pressures, you should start killing people and not stop until you're free again.

well, i think if this is the case its no longer a democracy in our sense of the word. What you described is a safety mechanism, for when the govt. ceases to be a democracy, to bring the govt. back on track.

Theoretically of course.

Well yes, that's right. It's an emergency precaution, but it's a necessary presence in order to ensure that democracy is capable of surviving.

Discussion aside, I thought that was a creative and well made video.

It's too early to give up and say democracy isn't working. Besides, too many of the people who are being "oppressed" are too lazy to get off of their asses and vote. In their case, they deserve it. It's the reward for their devotion to inactivity.

i happen to believe that our 2 party system is an insult to democracy.

Democracy: (literally "the common people rule") is a system where the population of a society controls the government.

personally, in my opinion, thats not what we have here. The big trick is to fool people into forgetting about their issues or whats important, and convincing them that either candidate A or candidate B represents their interests. Especially when our country doesnt go off popular vote. That would be closer to a Democracy... but until a "normal person" (read: non-career politician) can run and get votes for prez, I dont think this is a democracy at all, not even by its classical definition

Democratic peace theory. States that democracies dont go to war with each other. Doesnt say a democracy cant go to war with a -non-democratic country.

Eh... you're right. You're not going to see an average Joe in the white house here in america. The best we as citizens can do is a sort of fake-out where we make the political party want to run a candidate that thinks the way we want them to think... and that would be so complicated it's not even feasible.

I really wish I could vote directly on more issues, like I do with local and state propositions.

The only way we can break out of the two-party system is by voting for a third party. Did you do that last election?

There was democracy in Iraq when Saddam Hussein was the true elected president of Iraq, only problem is, he was the only one on the ballot. If you voted for anyone else you would end up in one of his million mass graves.

If democracy promotes peace between countries, why are we at war every 10 years (if not more frequently)?

Creative video.

Democracies arent countries lol.

We aren't a democracy, never have been. It's a pipe dream that we get told from kindergarten.

Humanity and Peace are contradictory.

it seems hypocritical for bush to say that, considering that america is one of the most violent countries in the world. the war on drugs plays a big part in that.
