Try us sometime. Well, I did visit Minneapolis this past year, and from what I saw, you have a pretty nice country. But I prefer it in Canada with hockey (damn NHL lockout), curling, tolerance, beer and free healthcare. There is no problem with believeing your country is great, possibly or pr

As a Canadian citizen, I have to say that us being jealous of America is for the most part a myth. The majority of Canadians are glad to live in Canada. I know I can't think of any other country that I would rather live in.

i don't know how to post a screenshot, but I had an interesting game today. I tried to replay the 1972 election, because I wanted a challenge. Nixon vs. McGovern. I set it to weak economy, global war, and national rioting, and made Nixon the computer on Masochistic. It was hard because I was McGovern, and only had 11 stamina and limited fundraising capacity. I chose Shriver as my running mate, Nixon chose Cheney. I lost the popular vote by about

Your answer is a load of crap. I asked you did you believe the christian's are doing another crusade. Do you know you history? The crusades were fought to free the holy land (Jerusalem speciically) from non-christians IE: muslims. Now to equate what we're doing now to the crusades is CRAP! This is not a christian relgious war nor

Ok, so who has? Sure the left clangs the alarm bell, but the simple truth is that no one has been forced to do anything against any beliefs. And for all the talk about how religious Bush is, has he promoted any religion? Well, I don't think Bush is that bad, except for gay marriage, which from my perspe

That's a good point. Would the Democrats have demanded multiple recounts if they had originally won the election? WhoTF is going to demand a recount when they won? </TABL

Although I strongly agree with most of what you said. I'm not really sure about your opening remark. "Or 2003-present". Are you saying the christians are on another crusade? First off, I believe Afghanistan was a legitimate response to terrorism. The USA was clearly attacked by Osama and Al-Qaeda so th

It was from 1187-1192 over 900 years ago. We learned better, what's their excuse? Or 2003-present. I know! Let's all find the craziest, most fundamentalist, violent, stupid people of every religion, lock them up in a big room together, and see how many are left at the end of one week. Then cu

Dont feel too bad, migs....here we have things like "federal" holidays that no one I know gets off, like Martin Luther King Day, Presidents Day, and Flag Day. Don't worry. Up here in Canada we have Civic Holiday, because they couldn't think of a holiday for August. Obviously they didn't look very hard

As for giving to the poor, I suspect if you actually did a pure $$$ gross donations to charities you would find that Republicans far out-give Democrats. This has more to do with the fact that Republicans have more money to give but doesn't change that fact. would it be possible to do that as a percent

It seems that whenever there are recounts, especially hand recounts, somehow Democrats start gaining votes. Either Democrats are incredibly incapable of registering votes that machines will recognize, or they make marks that it takes mind readers to find later in hand recounts. Either way, it smells incredibly funny (like

I'd like to be able to attack my opponent on things that are not issues, but his characteristics. For example, make an ad attacking John Kerry's military experience to simulate the Swift Boat Jerks. Or say that a candidate is not experienced enough to become President, like Cheney tried to do to Edwards in the VP debate (would work well against the Bush first lady candidates (Laura and Barbara)). Just a thought

I am an athiest. I do not believe that there is a higher being other than the laws of science and the universe. But, this isn't about debating the absence or presence of God. It's about the claim made by the above quote that morality is religion based. That's frankly nonsense, bullshit, and a lie As a f

How do you get Special Traits? Just write them in in your candidate file. I have a list of what to write to get what in reply #1. So If I wanted to make a Democratic candidate that strongly opposes the war (say -10, as opposed to the democratic default of -5), I would type in: //Special Trait
