The American dream is now a nightmare. The "Great Experiment" is terminated in failure. On the Tenth anniversary of 9/11 you continue to live in fear. You have thrown your liberties away. You were tricked into waging murderous war on the innocent. You are poorer now than you were on the day of 9/11 and you are locked into an Orwellian endless war. You are now dumbed down and too stupid to even understand what has been done to you. Bogiemen are set up for you to howl at - and how you howl! "Islamofascists", "Jihadists", "Illegal Immigrants" Howl! Howl ! Howl! "Government spending", "Gay Marriage", "The deficit" Howl! Howl! Howl! "Forged Birth Certificate", "Liberals", "Socialists" Howl! Howl! Howl! "Unions", "Obamacare", "Global Warming liars" Howl! Howl! Howl! You live in Bizarro world where everything is upside down. Paul Krugman shows that you are in a liquidity trap and that deflation, not inflation is the problem. What do you do? Call Krugman a liar! Numerous people explain in detail how you were tricked into invading a country, Iraq, and that people should be held accountable for the hundreds of Thousands of innocent Iraqi civilians killed. Do you listen? No. You get caught torturing the innocent. You argue that what you did isn't torture, or if it was, then it was justified. We patiently explain that without investment in the best possible education for every American child, regardless of birth or means, that the country is doomed to ever increasing poverty. You yawn. We point out that welfare is a necessity if you wish to remain a First world country. You accuse us of "rewarding failure" whatever that means. Orwell was right. In your twisted little minds, War is Peace, Freedom is Slavery and Ignorance is strength. You have failed all the basic tests of humanity. You prosecute a woman for "Stealing Education"; You think that drug testing welfare recipients is a good idea. You think that better a Thousand innocent men be executed than one guilty man go free. Mean spirited little Conservatives, go shudder and hide under the bed on 9/11. That is all you are good for. Wait and see what "Paradise" it will be when Perry is elected President. He will make America a living hell for anyone that goes against him and his minions.
Do you think its calculated or just the nature of human beings to get caught up this way? Its a very interesting list, BTW....
While I agree with your comments about the conservatives...But keep in mind only a small portion of people buy into the ********** propaganda. Unfortunately they have the loudest voice. But no the American dream is not dead just stagnant.
Lol this thread was just embarrassing. I'm actually trying to contemplate just how ignorant of human and world history you'd have to be to hold the world view espoused in the main thread. I just can't do it.
"Ignorant"? Are you going to quote FoxNews and realclearpolitics at me as "Fact"? Every one of my assertions has been backed up be facts dozens of times on this forum and elsewhere. Come onnnnnnn, show me a "fact" that contradicts what I've asserted?
I don't see any "facts" at all in your rambling, incoherent screed. Are you drunk by any chance, Aussie boy? Here's an example "Islamofascists", "Jihadists", "Illegal Immigrants" Howl! Howl ! Howl!" That's not a fact. That's not even a complete sentence. Yes, Islamofascists and Jihadists (which are the same thing, in case you didn't know) are problems. They are your problems too, despite your own level of denial. Australia has been infiltrated by extremists Muslims just like every other Western country. I can pull dozens of examples of Imams in Australia calling on the murder of Australians and all other "infidels". Your country will do nothing about it, because Aussies are just as spineless as their English ancestors. By the time people like you catch on, it will be too late. And you wouldn't have a clue about our illegal immigrant situation. Why don't you worry about the hole in the ozone layer directly above your snake infested country? That should be more of a concern than what we think of our own illegal immigration policy.
They're happy to see America get knocked down a few pegs, even while their own countries are replete with problems. It gives them a chance to act superior, because they need that constant reassurance that they are. That's how *******s operate.
So because we don't subscribe to what other people call "civilized living" we're somehow inferior. Then how the hell is it we rule the (*)(*)(*)(*)ing world (*)(*)(*)(*)(*)? You people can't do (*)(*)(*)(*) without asking us permission first.
I was chuckling at your screed until I got to, "Paul Krugman shows that you are in a liquidity trap and that deflation, not inflation is the problem. What do you do? Call Krugman a liar!" Then I got to laughing so hard I couldn't keep reading. I've never actually called Paul Krugman, Enron flack, a liar although he obviously is. He's a shill for socialist. He'll lie whenever it suits him. He has written than unemployment insurance extends the time period people are without work and he has written that it doesn't. He's lying on one or the other. So, keep a happy thought. I know you're counting on total failure but perhaps we'll get rid of the Failure in Chief at the next election.
Be kind, Viv. That is all he, and people like him, have left. The dreams of bestriding the world like a Colossus, while we Untermenschen scurry beneath their feet in fear, are rapidly revealing themselves as nationalistic phantasmagora, dissolving as they waken to a world of debt ridden mediocrity. Stay your hand - leave them their fevered and fantastic ephemera - everyone needs some sense of self-worth.
Rofl, frodo...... Boo !! Where did you come up with that name anyway, fantasy-land? The most immediate problem we have is Mr. Obama. His big govt socialist/Marxist fundamental transformation. His go around Congress, I'll-do-it-myself dictatorship through regulatory agencies and executive order. Obamacare essentially preventing a recovery. We'll fix that in 2 years. Til then we'll have to suffer through it. America: Never forget that your vote is a responsibility, not a toy.
