Some people are pissed off at Bush's recent comments while visiting Iraq. He said that he would base his Iraq decisions off of advice from the military rather than polls taken in the United States. Which is great, because, you know, we don't live in a Democracy...
Yeah, yeah, I know that it's an representative democracy and the proper way to have our voice heard is to vote, have that vote thrown away, and to have men in suits decide who will be fucking us for the next 4 years.
But, really, shouldn't the people's opinion have at least some affect on the President's decision on how long we're going to let our soldiers die? I mean, they are OUR soldiers, right? Like, the people own the government and thusly they're our soldiers. Last I heard, we weren't under Spartan rule. Though that would be badass.
