How cool is that? The US says it’s in South America to “fight drugs” (yeah, right. To ensure that there is no competition to the CIA’s drug running).

So shouldn’t Ecuador have a base in the capital city of the USA’s drug business?

Come on, Australia! Get the US out.

Cheers.

I would imagine Obama may see the US as the fierce lion not as the prey. Although it seems he goes there saying to us that if we dont act like the lion, we could easily end up like the antelope(!)

I have been figuring where to use this quote from the novel, Black Beauty. About a horse, but full of words of wisdom for that other animal; humans.

“..in double harness with my mother, because she was steady and could teach me how to go better than a strange horse. She told me the better I behaved the better I should be treated, and that it was wisest always to do my best…; “but,” said she, “there are a great many kinds of men; there are good thoughtful men like our master, that any horse may be proud to serve; and there are bad, cruel men, who never ought to have a horse or dog to call their own. Besides, there are a great many foolish men, vain, ignorant, and careless, who never trouble themselves to think; these spoil more horses than all, just for want of sense; they don’t mean it, but they do it for all that. I hope you will fall into good hands; but a horse never knows who may buy him, or who may drive him; it is all a chance for us; but still I say, do your best wherever it is, and keep up your good name.”

Sounds good. Must we kill and threaten in order to keep our good name?? Or just or fierce reputation, Then there are al those weapons contracts and money to be made. Never mind our own Constitution and Declaration of Independence warning America to not act so..
