Did they not blow up a checkpoint just yesterday? All the other shit aside they are called terrorists because they are practitioners.

LBJ cried when he was offered the role of VP. Robert Kennedy literally had to calm him the fuck down. Dick Cheney held far more power than he ever could have as VP and he quit without burning the middle east to the ground. I mean if he’s at all Machiavellian, he is by far it’s worst practitioner.

That’s thing though, he didn’t in anyway profit off any decisions he may or may not have made as vice president, he didn’t control his investments and did not overtly make any money off haliburton. Even if he secretly did we would know by now, and if he secretly controlled anything in the oval office we would know it…

Oh! Lol haliburton and Nixon! Well that’s that then... I mean obviously if you read my comment you could infer I Fucking know his history, but you go ahead and repeat it back to me with no real argument or evidence and call it a Fucking day. What I said has been said by people on both sides of the aisle that have…

Well a bit of confusion then I don’t disagree, and as I said I hope they ultimately do get independence. I just don’t think countries from outside the region should have a dog in this fight. The west at most should diplomatically try and ease the violence on both sides, but frankly we use both as tools of violence…

I say this as a liberal, but up until he united with this cabal, he was an apolitical public servant who served his country because he gave a shit. I don’t know what the hell happened to him, but people forget the vast majority of his career he was considered a level headed peace maker well respected on both sides of…

Right so the west should continue to arbitrarily redraw maps to fix arbitrarily drawn previous maps? Should the US kick England out of northern Ireland? I feel for them, and I hope they get their grievances resolved, but it it has nothing to do with the US, and it wouldn’t even be legal. Not that it matters... And it…

Yeah I’m just saying we shouldn’t do it. As much as our interests align now, once they are a country I’m not sure they really do anymore. We certainly aren’t going to support an independent nation hostile to Turkey, even if they are right to be so. Nations like that are like the drunk friend at the bar running their…

We shouldn’t stop them, and maybe use some leverage on Turkey to back off. Giving people countries inside of other peoples countries is beyond dumb, especially when the reason is they seem like great guys and they carry out extra legal operations for us. Just ask the British how Israel repayed them, and look how that…

Can’t pay your workers but can spend the last of your money on lawyers... Can you defame a fucking sweatshop? I wouldn’t go around picking fights if I were saleen, I mean a tricky lawyer can make you pony up 20k in discovery without breaking a sweat.

Totally agree, the parallels to fifa are staggering. Fortunately I think F1 is more prone to failure, it’s not as large or financially well off as fifa. That said barring an implosion or a serious rival I don’t see it happening. It’s sad, but I think a lot of people agree it needs to burn to the ground, and in that…

I feel mostly the same. As for the bottom teams, will it ever be any other way? F1 doesn’t need to help them if the rules aren’t designed to make it impossible to compete. How do you think it would go if you put the top drivers in the bottom cars? I don’t think much would change personally.

I’m not saying the lower teams should be competative just that it shouldn’t break them. And I mean that’s the problem, who wants a predictable sport that’s a victory lap for the biggest checkbook? Why should smaller teams bother? I used to like it, I can tell I never will again, it’s not a sporting event. It’s not a…

I mostly agree with this, but how hard it is to drive is mostly irrelevant. The issue is it’s not competitive. Not sure how to make it so, maybe being more of a challenge would do it, but even if that’s the case if the bottom teams go bankrupt on a regular basis and they never work their way up the ladder then what’s…

Yeah that, and I’ve not once heard “let’s make f1 more womanizing and I’ll watch” or anything of the sort. Has anyone ever heard someone ask for more half naked ladies or something to spice it up? Or I want a driver to tell his wife to do the dishes and cheat on her and I’d totally tune in.. This pc shit is getting…

Honestly you’d probably kill the engine faster. Running around rich and part load isn’t good for an engine. 5th gear in old cars is the engine killer. Then there’s a higher chance of carbon buildup and deposits. You may not want to flog an old car but you definitely want to air it out every now and then. Use it or…

I once put out I fire with a Volvo station wagon, but I maintain that it was safe because it was a Volvo.

When he asks the guy “and your going to assault me” or something to that effect and the guy, already subdued, is like “yeah”... I mean, shit gets out of control, it’s not ok, but really it’s not a big deal in the grand scheme of things if there is no lasting injury. People do stupid shit, it’s not always a reflection…

You should always join forums and communities for your car. You can generally always get advice about shops in your area, and someone will always know the car inside and out and be able to tell you if you are being ripped off or what to expect.

If it does poorly against an F-16 with fuel tanks limiting it to 4 or 5g and giving up it’s ability to take the fight vertical, then it’s going to perform pretty poorly against a missile I would think. I don’t know how well the F-35 performs doing evasive maneuvers but the F-16 has never been hit by one to my…
