i like george bush though, he's actually a funny guy (see fahrenheit 911 if you guys havent seen it yet lol!)

see the funny thing is that Joshua bar Joseph was the son of Joseph and Mary. it wasn't until long after he died that people pretended he wasn't
i imagine Mary is mightily pissed since she has been called a virgin for several hundred years and if history remembered me as a virgin when i wasn't i too would be pissed.

Re: George Bush
his speech reminded me very much of the one Harry Truman gave at the beginnings of the cold war about defending freedom and liberty from outside agression everywhere.
infact it was almost identicle.
the entire inauguration 'parade' looked far more like a funeral tho.

Re: George Bush
well NK would quite probably launch nukes, China might assist (More financial/tech than physical) them just to prevent nukes going off....so their off the list of people to be bullied.
Iran....well another land war in the middle east, are you ****ing nuts? their air defence is supposedly pretty modern and your army is a little stretched keeping iraq from bursting into flames (more so than now) do you really want to add the revolutionary guard into that mix?
Syria....wouldnt that be a little like punching that weedy kid with glasses and all those allergies?
So Syria it is then.

Re: George Bush
Bush won't attack anyone in the near future. the absolute maximum would be some airstrikes against iran and i even doubt in that, because Iran could somehow get involved in iraq and that can't work out for bush.

Considering Chirac's record of occassional bluntness at these kind of things, I wouldn't say that's a total certainty.
p.s, it was a joke.

Re: George Bush
update: Bush needs another $80 billion for his war on terror, so i guess nothing whatsoever is going to happen with any other countries, because the USA simply can't effort it.

Re: George Bush
like borrow it from the chinese? they wont do that forever, especially not if that money is used to bomb the shit out of an allied country that supplies them with oil and they do lots of buiness with.
sure, they can borrow it somewhere, but the more debt bush runs up the higher the interest rates are going to rise and thats going to slow down the economy if not stop growth alltogether.
PS btw, its great that human rights are now respected in Iraq

Re: George Bush
private investors dont lend enough money to the US, because there are other, better places to invest their money. last year the us got a lot fo their money from the chinese and japanese central bank, for economical reasons, not because its a good investment. one of the reasons the dollar die fall in the last year was because they will eventually (thats my favorite english word atm ) stop giving away free money.

not a good investment in the sense of a high return on investment, only in the way that by keeping american interest rates low americans can run even deeper into debt to buy foreign goods from those countries.
it really is free money or free goods if you want. there is absolutly no way that either japan or china can sell even parts of their reserves, that would make the dollar crash totally. japan hold something around $670 bn, china goes the same way. to compare the federal reserve hold something around $100bn in reserves alltogether, including their gold. its just too much to sell it.

No, that was just an error in the translation of something some chinese guy said. The dollar lost more than a cent against the euro in one day because of that.
