<0> Has anyone seen the canadian WWII memorial?
<1> so, i dont get their beef
<1> Nohman, in Ottawa?
<0> rofl, its such a disgrace
<1> well, at least it didnt cost much.
<2> am i here or lagged again?
<3> well, the US did not have an official WWII memorial until recently
<4> Linus-, you're not here
<0> rofl, the memorial mostly talks about how bad war is and canadians who fought in it
<2> damn
<3> nohman: oh ****.. that's um.. bad
<1> Nohman, war is an unfortunate aspect of humanity.
<5> jumbo bologna?
<2> i feel like I'm a new character on Lost
<2> DeDannan, yes
<3> linus: well, you ARE lost :P
<0> Yeah, but a memorial that dishonors your own countrymen that fought in it
<1> you're a character all right
<5> maybe at a 7/11
<2> we called it simply "jumbo"
<3> Nohman: that is what some wished to do about hte 9/11 memorial
<6> War is hell
<1> ladies call me Jumbo too.
<2> i can be on tbs!
<2> baloney!
<3> Mal: canuck beer belly?
<1> Lupine, the big problem with the 9/11 memorial is the m***ive cost.
<7> Cuba libre! Al diablo de capitalism!
<1> Lupine, hahahahaha
<5> other people call you big-nose :)
<6> the m***ive cost?
<1> 426, projected, yeah
<6> uhh, the m***ive cost to who?
<1> almost $1 billion
<1> taxpayers.

<9> blizzil - Please install identd
<6> are you stoned?
<7> havin a big nose in miami helps, if you know what i mean... colombia too
<3> i thought that was for the whole area, not just the memorial
<2> my armpits sometimes smell like old jumbo
<1> 426, maybe the New York Times is...
<1> im just reporting on the reporting.
<6> the memorial is being funded by private donations
<1> not exclusively, no.
<10> Rice just made her little speech on Iran
<4> Malheur, I'm looking at a pic of the Canadian WWII memorial. Visually it's very nice
<1> the state of new york, the city, the federal government; theyre all chipping in
<11> Wow
<11> In the USSR
<11> we had WW2 memorials in almost every major city
<11> or almost every city
<6> the tax payers are only funding 10 million out of the 1 billion
<3> Herzen: many cities here have them.. but we did not have a national/official one.
<1> there are also some Canadian memorials in France
<1> and Belgium
<12> in USSR, memorials visit YOU
<6> and that funding is being blocked by a republican congressman in North Carolina
<3> actually, I take that back. The US government DOES have several official memorials.. but no in the US
<2> that's because you guys beat hitler
<2> outlasted rather
<11> infact it was an outrage to the Russian nationalists that the homos recently tried to have their protest at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier
<3> Normandy, Bastogne, etc
<10> hrmm
<1> Juno Beach
<12> the history channel has gotten better
<12> it doesn't **** as badly now
<1> Canadian soldiers were stellar performers in WW2
<1> and the air training was top notch
<2> if hitler hadnt turned against russia, could he have held europe for a decade?
<3> Mal: they're often stellar performers, even if they don't have the necessary equipment
<1> Lupine, very much so, yeah, the training is excellent

<3> linus: well, if hitler hadn't ordered the ceasement of bombings on RAF...
<5> Lupine, a roman?
<2> ban this mofo
<2> spammer
<0> I feel bad for canadian soldiers for being born in such an ungrateful nation to the ones who defend its country
<3> DeDanna; big nose! [ life of brian ]
<1> one of my friends in infantry said that Canadians get a lot of respect from American soldiers when they come here to train and vice versa
<5> aw dang!
<2> Lupine, yeah, another quizzical move
<1> Nohman, they feel the same way
<3> DeDannan: big nose!
<3> "stop picking your nose.." " I wasn't.. "Yes you were!"
<7> is defending your country really worth of dying?
<1> Fid, yes.
<5> Lupine, dang..I shoulda caught that one...
<1> i cant think of many better reasons.
<7> i know your first reaction is ofcourse yes but when you think about it, that's not always the case
<0> Nothing is worth dying for Castro, killing for yes
<2> defending liberty
<7> defend it from who
<13> whom.
<2> boundaries are so artificial
<1> Nohman, that's part and parcel with the job.
<13> from whomever.
<3> Fid: I agree. You do not win a war by dying for your country. You win a war by making that OTHER son of a bitch die for HIS country.
<7> the liberty to have corporations controlling peoples lives?
<13> Lup: lol
<14>
<12> Fidelito, que pasa cabron ?
<7> no se
<1> Fid, corporations are composed of individuals.
<0> I'd never die for America, but I will kill all those smelly greenlanders trying to take over my country
<1> corpus, body
<7> y tu?
<12> nada
<1> corporations ARE legal persons.
<3> Dying for your country is noble.. but it aint a winning tactic.
<2> FidCastro, not what i was thinking ;)
<3> Mal: yea, thanks to a misapplication of the 14th amendment.. *grumble*
<7> linus-, but that's how it is
<1> Lupine, no, thanks to the Netherlands
<1> corporations are beautiful things
<1> you can own them too.
<7> yeah, to those who run it
<1> im sure you do.
<8> Looking for band members or to promote your band http://games.byethost32.com/index.php Create a profile today and browse our other profiles.
<1> Fid, no, the people running them don't have the interest in them that the shareholders do.
<1> you buy shares, you vote, it's your company.
<7> and once you own a corporation you can own people too
<3> Mal: oh, in the US.. it was the 14th amendment that was the legal basis.
<11> Corporations are just a more effective way to do business on an everyday basis
<11> they aren't evil or sinister
<7> such a wonderful vision, have power and control
<1> Lupine, ill have to read more about that
<1> Herzen, they are morally neutral
<11> and life is doing business
<12> dying for your country is noble but what's equally more noble is to live
<7> il be right back
<1> theyre around for legal reasons, and capital-raising reasons
<12> live... kill more enemy, That's what we really need.
<5> the individuals running corporations may be sinister however...as we learned last week in the Enron verdicts :)
<1> corporations and double-entry accounting made business easier
<11> DeDannan, eh lots of indivudals not running corporations may be equally sinister
<1> there is no inherent morality to being a businessman.
<1> in being
<3> BTW: "Complete Cosmos" is a great new series on the science channel, similarly done as Cosmos was.
<11> commiefuk, Welcome back Fidel
<12> hahah
<12> ya commie fuk
<15> yeah, i'm back
<1> i would wager that almost all of us own pieces of corporations, yet rarely exercise the right to vote
<1> so, that's your problem; it's your company
<11> Oh hell yeah
<1> if you dont like how it is being operated, use your vote
<12> I should vote more
<11> I have 150$ more dollars then I thought I did in my account
<1> Herzen, sweet
