Its wierd.. The great leaders of the old world expressed either a high intellect or exceptional strength and fighting capabilities.. The great leaders of the world today show attributes of neither.. George Bush definately isnt the smartest man in the world, nor is he all too tough.. *sigh*

That reminded me of one of the best verses all time

"Slow is the ministry, wise is the Atheist
Pride is a sin, yet they line up the patriots
Pledge your allegience, kill for your freedom
Says the moreen with his head full of demons

Arrogant barrel chested Americans bearing
Messages wearing impressions of dead devils
Wrecking areas carrying various weapons
Scaring up histeria -- where are the lessons?

I pose the question to top ress officials
Press to their temple, cock the glock-pistol
Where is the doctor to vacinate tissue
Plagues by contagious Tomahawk missles

Tally the casualties out in the crowd
As the riot police surround and beat down the rally scene
Liberty's a falacy, now the palace breeds power
And they bow down only to Stalin's creed"

I've got a better one.

There once was a man from Nantucket...
And...Well, let's just say the stories about him are greatly exaggerated.

That line wasn't from C&C. Not from the official ones, at least.

Like I said, not in the official ones. Command & Conquer is a franchise by Westwood Studios and covers C&C, Red Alert, Tiberian Sun, Tiberian Sun: Firestorm, Renegade and their expansion packs. Then EA took them over and raped it all to get money of it. That's when messed up games like Tiberian Wars, Generals and Red Alert 2 arose. Only the Westwood games are the official ones.

If EA bought out the original Westwood Studios, any game launched as a result of that is still an 'official' C&C game, idiot. It's just not from the original developers, which =/= official.

RECAP: ORIGINAL =/= OFFICIAL

EA uses the "C&C" title as a money mule. That does not make it official. Just because it's refered to as that, does not mean it is that. I could call you a cock-juggling, handicapped, AIDS-patient restrained to a necrophilic's fantasy basement, but that does make you one. The same goes for companies. Only in minds of people blindly embraces whatever is written down.
