Evidently, you are unaware of the number of high school seniors (who
*just* had a "government" class) who could not identify key phrases
from the US Constitution. Some even believed that Leninist slogans
were actually in the USC.

When are you going to stop inflicting yourself on the world? Defend the
country in rightwing nut job speak -- is more then saying while we spend more
on arms then the rest of the world combined -- we still don't have enough.
Ya know, I've always wondered if the right, which also gets upset over
anything that involves that word (sex), really wants more and ever bigger
weapons because they need a substitute for not being able to get it up.
And no. Bush does not want to give people back their money. He wants to give
part of the so called surplus -- which is actually SS tax money being paid by
the current working class (that is just about everyone but the rich) -- to
the rich. Its no wonder he and the right want to kill SS.

So, tell the name of the third-world nations that have an ICBM capable of
hitting the US -- then explain how it is that you or anyone knows this is a
threat even though all of our espionage devices have failed to identify any
such ICBM capability by a third-world nation. Then explain why we should
believe the so called experts who have utterly and completely failed every
attempt to build any working anti-missile system -- when they claim they can
do it now. -- Note that we now know that every test during the raygun ron
years that didn't fail was rigged.
