They create puppet governments, usually backing dictators, and crush the people...it's its own government, but we get the fallout from the hate.
We deserve it, though, IMHO...Why aren't we in the streets protesting this? |

Because the proper form of protest for this sort of thing is to elect representatives that aren't assholes.
It just so happens that the american people are inept at that sort of protest. |

No, turk, you don't understand.
If you don't like the fact that your representatives are criminals, then you should vote for people who aren't criminals. |

No its up to the people and the law to correct them from breaking the law.
Getting elected into office is not a liscense to break the law or undermine it. |

Hahah, no he's not! He isn't disputing anything you are saying or pointing out. He's talking about another entirely different topic, which is apparently going over your head. His point: if you really don't want criminals in office, don't vote these criminals in. People seem to still vote for people they KNOW are criminals (see Giuliani and his support). Of course they don't have free reign to be criminals just because they are voted into office, but if we are seriously concerned about criminal politicians, we as a country shouldn't be voting criminals into office in the first place. People deserve what they vote for, or whatever that phrase is. |
