This and many other evidence that proves Michael Moore is full of shit has been brought to you by SIPRI.

America has a big part to blame for Iran and Iraq as well. Especially since we established The Shah in power who created a reign of terror and was deposed by the Islamic Revolution.
We wouldnt be in nearly the type of mess we are now if we didnt meddle in their affairs years ago. We are now paying for past discrepancies.

Sounds like someone's been reading too much Ann Coulter lately.

I love how liberals assume you must be a Coulter-loving conservative when you bash liberals... Coulter is a pea brained prick
The same way closed minded conservative assholes assume you must be a "dirty liberal" if you disagree with any of their policies.
Both you liberals and conservatives are a bunch of jerks that think the world is black and white. When it comes to the Mid East it's ALWAYS either WE'RE THE BAD GUYS or THEY'RE THE BAD GUYS.
No one ever wants to suck it up and admit the truth... that every nation is in the wrong.. Us, Iran, Israel, Palestine, UK, Syria etc...

It's not just the fact that you're bashing liberals, but rather the mindless, ranting, factually inept (Coulteresque) way you're doing it.

Yea I guess I came of Coulter-esque. I just get pissed off at how polarized everyone is.
Sorry... no disrespect to you. I just get angry at how hypocrytical both sides are. Republicans are mainly Christian but they seem so pro-violence. Democrats claim to be compassionate, but that compassion only seems to apply to us and Mexico.
I like to instigate discussions on both sides.
I also get mad at how people trash talk America so much when they're plenty good about this country. As much as the Democrats like to hyperbolize how much the Christians control this country and I hate to sound nationalist, but I think America still stands for great ideas. We're not perfect, but what country is? At least we can believe in whatever religion we want without being put to death.

And in the process didn't realize how polarized you yourself were becoming. I think it's time to take a few of these:

I'm polarized? Explain to me how? Because I get mad when I point out what's wrong with both democrats and republicans and have people jumping to conclusions about what I believe?

You don't have to be a democrat or republican to be polarized. You're on your own extreme end of the spectrum, and just lashing out at others. I've seen you jump to more conclusions about what others believe than the other way around.

I'm extreme? How are my views extreme? because I don't believe in invading other countries? Because I think that any type or war is wrong even in retaliation? Because I think that people should have the right to believe what they want without getting executing for thought crimes? Because I think that both democrats and republicans show signs of being hypocrates? Those are the only political views I've expressed tonight. Apparently I'm so middle cround that I'm just polarazing the shit out of America I guess.

It's not so much your views that I find extreme as much as your rhetoric and attitude. You make all kinds of ridiculous assumptions about people, and then complain that that's what they're doing to you(psychologists refer to this as "projection"). It's not so much what you believe in that's extreme, but rather what you believe that others believe. This is exactly what I meant in calling you Coulteresque. Now please, for the love of God:

No, you called me Coulteresque because I started talking smack about liberals. You and everyone else tonight are the ones assuming that I'm a conservative that would listen to a nazi piece of trash like Coulter, arguing with me about how my belief in invading other countries when that's not what I believe at all... just because I expressed views that might sound vaguely conservative.
I get mad at this and somehow me saying "typical liberal" makes me more presumptuous than you?

Oh yea, Coulter is a crazy ass bitch, that is no doubt. I actually think she isn't even conservative. It seems to me that she says all that shit to gain publicity. Even Republicans hate her cunt ass.

So categorizing you by mistake makes me a polarizing extremist? No... it just makes me a jerk.
