That's where we have the advantage -- our President doesn't have a lifetime appointment and succession is not based on birth. But I can't say the same for many of our senitors (such as Ted Kennedy) who have been in the Senate for many many years.

Don't PM me with questions -- you might get a nasty PM in response. If you have a question then post it in one of the forums.

... and who the heck thinks that France is one thread to world peace? Maybe we have bad wine year or so? Frenchmen are lovers not warriors! Come foreward and I tickle you to pieces, or make your wife happy for a change!

Oops! typing error that I failed to catch
Yea I agree. I like this site. Don't know how accurate it is, but doesn't show France in a good light except to say that its impossible for France to whip anyone ass.

Barbary Wars, middle ages-1830.
Pirates in North Africa continually harass European shipping in Meditteranean. France's solution: pay them to leave us alone. America's solution: kick their asses ("the Shores of Tripoli"). [America's] first overseas victories, won 1801-1815.

Piracy on the high seas is still thread to international shipping! Somebody forgot to tell them about Tripoli (1801-1815).

In fact all the weapons on the world can't even destroy the planet once, let alone a thousand times or more.
Even if you narrow it down to "just" destroying all human life, it's incorrect.
All the nuclear weapons in the world might have been (at their peak) enough to do that, and if they'd all worked as advertised and actually reached their targets there might have been an overkill factor of 3-4 times.
Still a far cry from a thousand times.
And one reason they built so many was because they knew full well that the majority would never reach their targets, so they deliberately designed for overkill.
And oh, the US does not actually have the largest arsenal.
That would be Russia (though the operational status of many of their weapons is questionable).
Maybe in numbers of actual warheads the US is ahead, but they're generally smaller warheads, enough so that the throwweight and yield of the total US arsenal is quite a bit smaller than that of the Russian arsenal.
And that's even if the Russian reports of numbers of weapons and warheads are accurate, which is highly doubtful. They may not know what they have themselves, and even if they do they are likely to not want some systems known to SALT and START treaty partners because those systems are in violation of those treaties).
As people are clearly allowed to attack me but I'm not allowed to defend myself, I no longer post to this site.

That support is not because they actually like those people (I think) but as payoffs so they'll be left alone by them.
Just another way in which France always immediately surrenders when threatened.
