re: #139 SFGoth

Then why all the fawning over this? Some of you are acting quite impressed. The thought that these elections are only possible as long as we have a substantial military presence doesn’t mean a thing to some of you? Given how much Arab/Muslim bashing there is on LGF (and deservedly so given how that part of the world non-functions) the proof will be whether peaceful voting can survive our withdrawal. How does feeling less than impressed equate with narcissism? I think it’s rather the opposite — oh look, free elections (with hundreds of thousands of U.S. troops keeping order). That’s narcissism. Looks like some kiddies here are upset that it’s raining on their parade.


We’ve been voting over here for over 200 years and we are just one acorn away from completely rigged elections.
