There's also a lot in the film that shows how people in the mid-east are taught misinformation about America and it's reasons for doing what it's doing in world politics...but then again we in the West are often given misinformation about how people operate overseas.

I agree that Supersize Me wasn't about just being Anti-McDs...but it sure wasn't pro McD's, either. He chose the biggest fast food burger joint to use as an example of where people go to make bad choices given the options they are prsented with and the potential consequences of such actions. The film was sometimes marketed (in my opinion) as anti-McD's and I just used that statement to try to quickly get to talking about WWOBL.

Much better than the ultra-lame Fast Food Nation . . . with Avril Lavigne quoting a Power Point presentation about meat production.

I Googled your "article", and it isn't an article at all - rather, an opinion piece by Debbie Schlussel, a right-wing harpy who really wants to be Ann Coulter, if only she could grow a penis. If you read the "article", she's also suspicious of Spurlock's claims that he found Bin Laden. A real genius, she is.

Because the trailer made it look like he was going to be spending half of the movie asking random people "Do you know where Osama Bin Laden is?" Which didn't really seem that interesting to me.

This review made it sound much better than that. It'd be a nice surprise if it was actually okay...

"The film then begs the question, how can anything ever be solved peacefully if people aren't willing to even talk about the issues at hand." No it doesn't. It ASKS that question. "Begging the question" means using circular reasoning, assuming X as one of your premises as part of an argument to prove that X is true.

- In 1996, in Al Qaeda's declaration of war on the West, they predicted victory due to the lack of resolve of liberals and other ignorant cowards like some in this talkback. - In 1998, the Clinton administration found plenty of reason without citing Al Qaeda, to make regime change in Iraq a US foreign policy objective. - In 2002, the Iraq war authorization bill cited more than 20 points authorizing military action against Iraq. This did not completely rely on WMD or Al Qaeda. Read this resolution. - Saddam's FBI interrogator states that Saddam planned and had the ability to quickly restart his WMD once the heat was off. Google it. You obviously have the right to act like ignorant cowards. We are simply suggesting that you are not behaving responsibly in doing so. If you want some additional perspective, read "Islam and the West" by Bernard Lewis. Basically, that part of the world has not experienced an Age of Reason or an Enlightment and is still trying to survive and provide for their families much the same way they did in the first millenia AD. They are brainwashed in hatred of jews and the US because their leaders have a powerful tool in Islam to keep the average person (especially women) acting like sheep.

Yes. There are exceptions such as JFK, LBJ, Pat Moynihan, but they are a dying breed. Post '60s liberals want to "give peace a chance" and look away from the ensuing genocides in Southeast Asia. They morally equivocated the West with the USSR especially during the Reagan years also out of cowardice and ignorance. Thanks to Reagan, Thatcher, the PJPII, there is now a Ronald Reagan Square in Warsaw. Liberals find the most to blame with the West and the least to blame with anyone else. They are close-minded, ignorant and regressive as they taut the same gratification-based view of morality practiced by cavemen. So, yes, the average liberal is a close-minded, ignorant, regressive, coward who is repeating the same sad mistakes on display in history generation after generation. I refer you to the people and mainstream media who applauded Chamberlain as he got off the plane and declared "Peace in our times" after surrendering a chunk of Europe to Hitler.

Only an arrogant hubristic neocon would open up another front in the "War On Terror" while the Allies were trying to stabilize Afghanistan. Tactical and strategic stupidity. There isn't a single nation on this planet who's ever conducted a completely (I'm not just talking about the initial victory...I'm speaking of long term as in the Fat Lady Singing) victorius campaign in Afghanistan. Why suck our precious resources (see: Allied soldiers lives) away from the main theater for what is turning out to be a largely unsuccessful and disastrous campaign in Iraq (going in is always the relatively easy part)? I hope it all turns out for the better in Iraq but it's still not looking anywhere solid enough for the US to let the Iraqi government run the show on their own. Way to hand Iraq over to the Iranians neocons! Instead of some half-assed documentarian looking for Osama the US should still be in the Eastern 'stan in full force and not stopping until we've hunted HIS (speaking of cowards) chicken-shit ass down and brought him back to the US to stand trial...then execution. Nah, prison would be better. Anyway, there are plenty of ass-kicking "liberals (talk about an over used word)" in the military, at least the ones I deal with. BTW, here's my invitation to move to another country since you seem so appaled by all of us "liberals" living here.

by SCYTHEOFLUNA
Apr 2nd, 2008
07:13:46 PM
If he had there wouldn't have been the famous "Dead or Alive" speech, or any of the macho bullshit that followed. If the U.S. had been serious about catching Bin Laden, there would have been no press conferences declaring who was responsible for 9/11 until after the offenders were dead. They would have quietly dispatched Black-Ops to the region and woken the fucker up with a silenced MK-23 in his face. Conventional warfare in that region has never worked, and as the Sovs found out in the 80's, and as we're learning now, it never will. You can't sprinkle democracy on the continent like it's a fucking condiment expecting people to say "Gee thanks we hadn't thought of that". These people believe they get their freedom in the afterlife. There's nothing you can do to them that will change their mind. I find it disturbing that we're openly opposed to the notion of assassinating the leader of a sovereign nation, but we have no problem cluster bombing their entire infrastructure into oblivion, killing thousands of civilians, thousands of our own, underpaid, insufficiently equipped troops, only to have to flip the bill to rebuild all the shit we blew up. Not to mention that our nation bears the resentment of every citizen who lost a father, mother or sibling, because we can't aim a laser guided bomb, and that each of those angry souls is a potential ally lost, and their surviving family are potential enemies gained. If they'd wanted Bin Laden, they'd have kept their fucking mouths shut, kept his name from the media, and sent all the spec-ops in the world straight up his dialysis dependant ass. Who the fuck can't find a six foot Arab with health problems? As an unashamed liberal, I have no fucking problem with our government ghosting bad guys, but we need to grow up and realize that the world has become way too small to fight wars that way. Nail these fuckers with an unannounced sniper round before they know you're coming, and then they can't hide out in the hills of Pakistan. If you're going to give the U.N. a big "Fuck You" anyway, then what difference would it have made if we'd sent in a covert unit to assassinate Saddam Hussein, rather than getting a thousands of innocent people killed and destabilizing the whole region and sending our own economy into the shitter to pay for it. For a bunch of greedy conservatives you'd think you'd have realized that covert ops are in the long run much cheaper. Give the CIA their balls back, and in the future make your macho press statements after the bad guys are dead.

It's all good. We've let this stuff slide long enough. These guys use the same sad, worn out tactics in every debate, and it has to stop---wait, did oozman call us ignorant and closed minded? Oh hell no. Really? Were the liberals the ones who sent our troops into Iraq with outdated Vietnam era urban battle tactics and without sufficient staff who could speak Arabic or Farsi? I mean how important is it to be able to speak to the locals if you're trying to win "hearts and minds" anyway? If libs are so ignorant, why was I saying that this war was a bad idea 5 years ago while idiots like you were saying the war would be over within a month? If I'm so fucking closed minded why do I have the insight to realize that you cannot fight a war against an ideology, and that one mans terrorist is another (granted misguided) man's revolutionary. You cannot change peoples minds by killing their families with mortars and 7.62 shells, they're just not going to see things your way. You cannot force these people to evolve and become a part of the 21st century, when some of them are heavily armed and content to live the way they did 500 years ago. Yeah, we blame YOU the ignorant closed minded fuckwits who happily swallowed the shovel of bullshit fed to you by this administration smiling as you slurp it up with a side order of fear tactics and misdirection. Iraq didn't attack us, and as I pointed out in my previous post the appropriate way to deal with Saddam (who was indeed a total fuckhead) was with an unannounced sniper round, not with CNN press coverage and a bunch of lies about how the Iraqi people would welcome us with roses, or Bush standing on an aircraft carrier wearing a uniform he has no right to wear declaring "mission accomplished" several thousand body bags too early. So go ahead and call us cowards you naive fuck, but maybe you should put your ass on the line instead of running your fucking mouth. If you're so convinced this administration is doing the right thing, then why aren't you over in Iraq getting fragged right now instead of spewing inane nonsense here?

There's something gratifying about pounding the stupid out of an ignorant moron. Oozman, the gauntlet has been cast down it seems. As fun as that sounds it isn't worth the cost of the airfare. Maybe oozman could try to reiterate for us why the war in Iraq was such a good idea. I defy him to come up with five positive things that have come out of the war, and they better be good enough to be worth 4 thousand of our best and brightest, and countless thousands of brown people he obviously doesn't care about. Defend your position rube.

Amazing how when the Left can never debate the point long enough before running to the safety of insults and ignorance. Anyway, Oozman good on ya, stay strong. First: Mission Accomplished referred to the overthrow of the Iraqi government. That mission was indeed accomplished. Premature to declare an end to major combat operations though. Uncle George goofed on that one. Second: You can't change minds with Mortars and Bullets. Maybe not. But you can kill a whole bunch of bad guys. And I think you'll find the vast majority of Iraqi's want to live in the 21st century. Only a small percentage of terrorists and Saddam loyalists want us to fail. And sadly, a great deal of Leftist on AICN. Third: Give the CIA its balls back? Hell yes! A leftist point I can agree with. Fourth: I'll give you 5 positive things. 1. Saddam is no longer in power 2. We have killed thousands of terrorists 3. Al Quaida can no longer call us the "Paper Tiger" - we did what we said we'd do 4. We have freed 29 million people from savage Baath party rule 5. If your side of the aisle lets us finish...we have a very nice place to set up some Air Bases for the invasion of Iran. Fifth: Never in the history of civilization has a 5 year ground war claimed the lives of only 4000 service members. Each loss tragic (I have family members in the military who have lost good friends) but certainly in the unemotional evaluation of war, acceptable. Now, bring it on Leftists! Do you worst, but try to make some sense and not spout 4 letter words like teenagers, OK? Engage in intelligent debate, it's fun!

If you judge a man by his actions, then it's George W. Bush and his supporters who hate America. How else can you explain a President who starts a war of choice that he can't pay for, adding trillions of dollars to the national debt who passed the largest increase in entitlement programs since Lyndon Johnson in the 60's thus adding billions more to the future unfunded liabilities that we already have in Social Security and Medicare and who decides that parts of our Constitution don't apply to his Administration? A President that loves America would do none of the above.

No war is ever "paid for." It is financed along the way, either by economic manufacturing boom, war bonds or tax hikes. Or sadly, deficit spending. Want to talk deficit, lefties? In comparison to GDP...it is miniscule! If Congress had acted to reform SS and Medicare then there would be no further issue. Let's talk Constitution...tell me specifically what parts W felt didn't apply. Be specific. All W did was keep this nation safe for the last 8 years and your side doesn't like it. Amazing!
