Scrabman is spending 5000 gold to liberate Central Greece. When Uncle Sam spent about 500 gold on ESR (and it was successful), he was impeached for it. Who was his primary supporting party, the AAP, which has traditionally had a relatively weak influence on congress. Scrabman has spent ten times the amount on Central Greece. It was successful, I will give you that.
But still.
5000 gold?
Seriously.
4000 was spent of FER, and it was lost.
What kind of person needs to spend more than 4000 gold to win a battle?
When I was in Romania, we let Indonesia fight their 300 gold battles, laughing at their wastefulness. Both 4000 and 5000 go above and beyond the call of duty. . . their duty to stupidity.
If Uncle Sam could be impeached for 500, Scrabman can be impeached for 5000.
Of course, Scrab will not be impeached because the Glorious Majestic Ruling Benevolent Great Dominating United States Work and Train Party has enough of congress to block impeachment. The hypocrites. After all, they voted to impeach Uncle Sam.
Impeach Scrabman NOW or forever live with the label of hypocrisy.
Remember, this is not just an angry rant. There is a solid precedent that requires that Scrabman be impeached.
The consistent hypocrisy is that you impeach presidents for using the military to get something done, even though 5000 gold is a *little* out of bounds.
The hypocritical consistency is that the Glorious Majestic Ruling Benevolent Great Dominating United States Work and Train Party never questions Scrabman.
You decide.

In keeping with my new tradition, I will be leaving my newspaper in some backwater country that no one here really cares about.
XD Romania.
Money well spent. If we didnt spend 5000 gold we would have lost. Or we would of had to give foriegn tanks who could tank better then money... but thats dumb. I like giving our money to our tanks.
Those battles you laughed at the indos for were most likely unimportant, not fought over for high iron regions.
The trick is that you have to WIN. If Uncle Sam had spent 500 gold more and won then he'd have been a hero. Politics are squirrely, but I'd hesitate to call them hypocritical.
Also, do remember that PEACE tanks had to spend almost as much as us to lose.
Worth. Every. Penny.
But seriously, 5000?
yep
what he said. 😁^
Besides, we can afford it. Seen our GDP lately? We're at least 3 times as wealthy as the next highest nation.

Really?
You are all quite disillusioned, aren't you.
pyro, give it up, not everyone agrees with you
Nor you
Actually, I agree with marquis 😉
Worth every nickel. What else did you want to do with that money? Play house?
You seem to be making the case that Uncle Sam was unfairly impeached. I think a lot of people would agree with that. Does that mean Scrabman should also be impeached? I don't think so. Uncle Sam was before my time, but from what I know of the situation I don't think impeachment was the right move. I think people were bored and looking for lulz.
Now that those people are in charge of things, they're taking it more seriously. Perhaps if they could go back in time they would have voted 'no' on impeaching Uncle Sam. Maybe they understand his actions better now. Maybe they don't. I dunno.
Anyway, if Scrabman deserves to be impeached, the argument for it should be exhaustive and air tight. This just isn't enough.
Although we all wanted it at the time, the Sam impeachement may have been pushing it. We were a very bored nation. very very bored. More bored than Romania is right now.
I lol at scrabs response

It seems scrab isnt one of your FaNBoiz pyro.
Nope 😉
@pyroelectricity: You just realized that politics tends to lead toward hypocrisy and nonsense policies? Congratulations! You just joined the modern world. How does it feel?
