Americans ONLY: Do you really care who foreigners think we should elect President?

Beastt

Aside from the obvious slant in both the opening post and the voting options, thinking for one's self doesn't mean that the thoughts of others should automatically be excluded or discounted. As the decisions made in America, perhaps more than any other country, affect the world, it certainly doesn't hurt to hear what the rest of the world thinks, and why, before making one's own personal decision.

Yeah, who do these geniuses think we trade with It's an incentive for them to hasten their entry into the EU so they can counterbalance bush's (by proxy-America's) constant references to god & embarking on war's of choice. All they have to do then is call in some of their loan's (trade surplus's-china comes to mind) or investment's & America will be in a shitstorm of epic "end day's" proportion's.

Agreed !
W've got to go with the vote - whether we like it or not.

Beastt

True. Even though in the 2000 election, we didn't go with the vote. Such irony that democracy itself is being voted out. Creatures of ignorance and pure selfishness will almost always manage to cage themselves.

I think this is the first intelligent post I've seen in the soapbox in like 3 weeks.

Beastt

Thank you. It isn't all that often we find ourselves in agreement but it's quite refreshing to see that you are objective and base your opinion on the statements made, rather than the person making them. My highest commendation to you.

Whatever debates I have with other posters stays in that thread. I don't take anything personally and I'm certainly not going to make judgments about posters based on those ridiculous doping discussions.

Its so rare to find a thoughtful post in the soapbox, I felt I had to comment. Besides, I am feeling very sorry for the anyone-but-Bushers, especially those from the red states. Now is a time for healing...until the next doping debate.

This is THE most dumb thing I ever saw posted! Well done m8! It potentially is more dumb than what we hear Bush twaddling on about...

Right. You have NO IDEA of US politics. What happened last time we had a "regime change"? We got the Brady Bill, a WORTHLESS piece of crap legislation, the AWB which EXPIRED because it would pass muster without sunset clause and the "Don't ask, don't tell" crap.

Brady has been rendered obsolete by technology of NICS background checks, AWB is dead because no Demonrat wanted to repeat Bloody November 1994 and queers still find the military contrary to their "lifestyle".

Yes, its damn time to reverse the downward spiral of society, lest we open the doors to a modern Weimer Republic.

Sorry m8, but I didnt understand much of that... less acronyms pleeeaasseee

davidmc

He's saying he's a gun nut & hates queer's. He does'nt seem to care about the budget deficit, trade deficit, interest on the debt, ect...I wonder how many of them there are here. He only seems to care about his personal likes/dislikes. . It's scary

Is there anybody besides Bush that you don't hate? You seem to operate on hate, energize yourself through hate and take great pride in your ability to hate. I suppose it only follows that you'd think Bush was a great guy since he spreads mostly hatred and death.

limerickman

The correct spelling is Weimar - not Weimer.

Don't know what your problem is with the Weimar Republic - you weren't there at the time, your antecendents were though.
