Who do you and your ilk think that what the terrorists do justifies
gutting the ethics of the Unites States?

Which is why I don't cry when I read about them going under. It's
amazing they're still around. People in the U.S. supposedly worship the
free market. Well, the free market has decided the U.S. produces junk.
And, with the tariffs on foreign cars, it's hardly "free" anyway, yet
people would still rather pay extra and get better quality and styling
and handling. You can't even save the American auto industry through
protectionism anymore.

You might talk to Americans of Japanese decent locked up
during W.W.II about that. How many US citizens are locked up
at Guantanamo? How serious are the abuses at Guantanamo
compared to past abuses committed by the US government on US
citizens in the US?

I don't particularly like the idea of locking up foreign
nationals. I also don't like the idea of foreign nationals
strapping bombs to themselves and trying to blow up US
soldiers, or hijacking airplanes and crashing them into
buildings.

I probably could live with having a few hundred foreign
nationals locked up at Guantanamo if I though W was actually
going to solve the problems that initially made it
necessary. But W is not exactly a confidence inspiring kind
of guy.

I have friends here in CA whose parents were just that. What went on
then is _irrelevant_.

What tariffs on foreign cars (at least the ones coming into
the USA)?

As a comparison, I still have yet to KF judy, but lister is so ****ed
up I had to do it. It must suck to know that even judy has more
redeeming qualities than he/she/it does.

Wow, that's a pretty bigoted statement, considering that last time I
checked Arif lived in West by God Virginia.
