Now I am an English dood but to quote other GFY people that have gone before.... "Niggah Pulllllease!!"
Like Iraq, Afghanistan and other countless disasters (not to mention prospects for North Korea and Iraq) havent helped US govt bankrupt itself already and now you wanna enter the fray again? This leads me to another GFY aphorism: "Put the crack pipe down!"

This always kills me.
How was Iraq or Afghanistan a "disaster"? Seems to me like the government of Iraq is no longer in power, and it's the same in Afghanistan. The United States rolled in, and quickly took out both governments. Don't be fooled into believing that they are bleeding us dry, because they aren't.
The US isn't having financial problems because of Iraq and Afghanistan. It's because of a world wide recession.
And the funniest thing I keep hearing is about how our oil is going up because of Libya. Bullshit. Libya produces less than 2% of the world's oil, ninety-five percent of which goes to Europe. On top of that, the Saudi's have announced they'll gladly pick up the slack.
We need to something in Africa. All of Africa has been hit with decades of civil war, AIDS, lack of government, starvation... And we just sit by and watch it happen.
