That is why we were sucked into a stupid ****ing war in iraq because when Bush asked if we supported we couldn't say no or we wouldn't look so friendly would we. Then what happens when theres a nuclear war, we get ****ed cause U.S doesn't wanna have our back.

Offtopic, it is beyond me why voting is not mandatory in the U.S. And don't give me the "it because we're so free la la la look I can sit on my ass cause it's a free country" because as far as I can see, you are losing rights every day to your ****ed government (privay, right to a fair trail when it comes to suspected terrorism etc).
