I guess someone got post 100 already, LOL.

Hmm, guess not. :)

you are already committing suicide by electing these kind of leaders:warning

wow... that just showed how out of touch bush is with the american people

he will not win a second term

Loved when he started naming the countries that are with us in the fight in Iraq. Not that I agree with everything but damn that was a great moment!

most people in those countries didn't support the war, so a lot of those governments will be punished next elections. And except the UK, there isn't a powerfull country behind them, I mean Holland, Poland, Spain, ... (if they have to choose they won't follow the US, most are too dependable on the EU)
I'll take me chances with France, Germany, Russia, ...

Our selection of leaders...has not been detrimental to the US becoming the richest most powerful nation the world has ever known...in little more than two hundred years...pretty good track record if you ask me?

I can't stand political BS nor the people that speak it.

Michael Jackson was the number one musical artists in the world for several years. Every good thing comes to an end. :)

Of course. Be sure and keep us updated every hundred years of so.

I'm especially talking about the current leaders. BTW Russia became a superpower within 30 years, not bad for a country that mostly consisted out of farmers.
And before you go ahead with "we are still rich, ...": YOU'RE LENDING MONEY FROM CHINA!!!!!!!!!!!!!! CASE CLOSED

Hmm.."superpower"...compared to the richest and most powerful country the world has ever known. Hmm...Russia became a "superpower" in only "30 years". Hmm..Russia is a much younger country than I was ever aware of. Hmm...I was under the impression that the Soviet Union was once considered to be a "superpower"...not Russia.

How much money did we lend to China??? Think they will pay us back???

theKing:

DUH? I never knew the US loaned any money to China... when was that???? Was that some US Aid program or something?? *g*

The fact is the US owes China a LOAD of money (and MANY other nations) and the question should be when are they gonna pay the bill instead of whining and complaing that the exchange rate is crap??

Laura definitely has some M.I.L.F. qualities IMHO. I'd do 'er.:glugglug

:1orglaugh

I thought she looked kinda adoring of her trash hubby tonight and kinda "plastic" and anal retentive...

But hell.. you can't blame the wife for the sins of her husband :winkwink:

jeezes, read what I wrote USA lended money FROM China, you guys have to pay money back to China.

the name Russia has been used for over centuries, like it was part of the USSR, nowadays it's part of the Commonwealth of Independent States. So, obviously I ment the USSR years!

oh again you're there with the "considered to be a superpower", it was a superpower.

USA, the most powerfull country in the world? yes, that's true

richest? that depends on how you look at it, there are many countries where the average conditions of life are better for everyone. What use is it to be the richest, when 99% of the money is owned by 0,01% of the population? 15% of the US population life in poverty, but hey you're still the richest :thumbsup

you should try to be the greatest, an example of democratic, humanistic values that defend freedom & equality. Instead of a nation where government is in bed with an extremist religious group and big business, where civil liberties are eradicated, you're on the verge of becoming an Gestapo-state, where the inland security can bypass the judicial system, oh now that already partly true.

great state of the world:
China run by a something that is so perverse, it's criminal to call it communism, Marx would turn around in his grave

Russia run by a corrupt president, 8 oligarchs and the Russian mafia

USA run by a conservative, having nazi tendencies on the inland security issues, religieus extremist, selling out to a few instead of thinking about the whole of the population, making a perversion out of the democracy president

How much did foreign nations "lend" to the United States?

How do you think your nation can survive without foreign funds?

Do you live in the same world as everyone else, theking?

Did he say anything about strenthening the US dollar? I'm loosing money here.

Lended is not a word that I am aware of. I believe the word you intended would be "borrowed".

FYI..."poverty" in the USA means a roof over your head. Clothing to wear. Food to eat. Utilities...such as electricity...heating...cooling...and phone. Furniture...appliances...such as cook stove...refrigerator...micro wave...a washer...dryer...TV...VCR...Video games...one or more cars...etc. In other words...well off compared to billions in the world. There are some dregs of society that do not have all of the above...but it is by their choice...not because they couldn't have the above.

You are not very astute are you?

Your answer is predictable.

Do you have any real answers or will you stay in complete denial?

OK...just this once I will break it down for the simple minded.

Since he said lending...

Is "SARCASM" since the word should have been borrowed...and I repeat you are not very astute...are you?

Give me 200 years of free slave labor and I'll build the richest nation in the world too.

Theking calling other people "simple minded".... what is this world coming to? ;-)

Still no answers to my questions, oh well..... :(

I do not know off hand and I do not care to research the matter.

Increase our deficit spending.

The question does not deserve an answer from me.

Now...have I made your day...simpleton?

You are right, I should not ask someone without any knowledge about economics those particular questions.

I apologize for wasting your time.

Unless you have had an economics major...I probably have had as many economic courses as you when I attended University...and my personal economics are in very good order...thank you very much.

This pic never gets old in these posts :1orglaugh :1orglaugh

Uhh, sorry... but if you look carefully you'll see that the US is giving Canada a reach-around.:winkwink:

Shocker? :1orglaugh :glugglug

:thumbsup

Right, and that's why smart people realize he's a douchebag.

It's funny to see people arguing with the king like he has a point, or like if you just explain the truth simply enough he'll realize how wrong he is. Nope, he's been brainwashed since birth, he'll continue to salute the flag and support whoever Fox tells him to, no matter how badly they're destroying his country. Funny to see people think they're patriotic by blindly supporting they're commander and chief. In the rest of the civilized world, questioning your leaders makes you patriotic. It's almost sad to see how badly unintelligent people like theking get manipulated into being sheep.

I think the scariest part of it is how much he pandered to the religious right.

Government sponsered Faith based (religious) programs.

The defense of Marriage act and giving more freedom to abolish gay marriage and or spousal benefits.

Abstinance to sex and probably with that less sex education that does not preach abstinace as the only preventitive measure.

It was one ofthe most rightwing play to the christian right speeches I have seen in a long time. I think it is true that Bush is the most polorizing president we have seen in our lifetime. There will be fewer people who vote down the middle next election time.

Oh and keep watching how many far right judges are put into place during this administration. Dont ever believe that porn wont be a BIG BIG issue if Bush is reelected. When the economy is in the shitter always use the protection of the American Family as your issue to distract attention.

The reality of it is.....Bush is really wanting a high Right Wing Religious turn out this next election and with that speech he is well on his way to getting it

Sorry meant for that to say Preaches abstinance as the only preventive measure

You are free to do as we tell you!

Canada would already be annexed if there was shit there worth our time.

:1orglaugh

Nicely said!

I question everything that my government does and frequently exercise my right to complain to my congressman (more than his staff is happy about I am sure) about policy or legislation. I specifically do not like President Bush on a personal level and I disagree with probably 80% or more of his policies and in addition I am not a Republican and have never voted for a Republican.

I just am not tolerant of the mis-informed...people...hatred and BS that is spewed forth by people on this board...most of which are not Americans and know very little about America or Americans...and do not have a say in our internal affairs.

When President Bush is no longer in office...which may be a year or may very well be four...you sorry ass people will still be spewing your hatred...mis-information and BS about the next Administration and America.

FYI...I am not unique...it is as American as apple pie to question the actions of our Government...as Americans in general accept the joke that when a politicians mouth is moving he is either eating or lying...as gospel.

Canada only survives and operates as it does because of the US so Canadians don't have a whole lot to say. Our King sucks ass there's no doubt about that.

:thumbsup

Our girls should be reason enough for you guys to " liberate us"...

On the other hand, maybe we will turn off the oil flow, the electrical delivery and the water... just to see your tongues hangin out...

:1orglaugh

I have never said anything bad about America as a country !!!
Just about the policies some of your leaders have.
I don't hate America, I do hate Bush, large part of the Republicans & those right wing think tanks.

I was very positive of Clinton, page back I was very positive about the leader of the democrats in the senate, ...

as many in the world I was raised on American entertainment, we all know and believe and want to fight for the values mostly portrayed in them, 'cause they are about freedom, equality, democratic & humanistic values

but now we see a man doing the most terrible and stupid things anyone has done in a long time and he's hurting the rest of the world with them. It's not only our right, but our right to complain about these things. Make the USA a great country again, we don't want to be the most powerfull, the usa can be that, but we demand that they do a great job and if not, don't use the western values of democracy to make churches stronger and more influential, to fuck around with civil liberties, ...
the things Bush has said are the same the extreme right wing parties say in Europe, we have a name for them ... fascists

+ theking learn to accept that mistakes are being made, you're always "america is the best" "america is always right" and I think most people on this board only hear things like that from you.

I give that to you, Canadian women are really friendly, enough to make me almost move there. I was considering going to Winnipeg since it's middle size and not a bad place. Who knows what I might do.

I'm all for it. As soon as Bush stops meddling in other countries internal affairs and invading here and there, I'll shut my mouth.

So you'd be ok with it if it were Clark, Dean, Edwards, or Hillary?

:1orglaugh

How did you feel when Bill was doing the same?

Of course not but don't come here telling me that I don't have the right to criticize Bush even though his actions have a direct effect on many people I know.

I think we should liberate the whole world taking their labor and resources to enrich our empire. There isn't anyone that can stop us anyway and those who we don't want to fight we can buy. The world is ours!

:BangBang:

I find this funny. Funny not only cuz of its stupidity and arrogance but because in all honesty Canada operates on its own. We dont have to fear any countries wrath (regardless of our geographical location) because we arn't pissing on other countries. Canada is a vast country with alot of industry and our economy is fairly good. Our dollar is at an al time high in relation to the US dollar. And yes we have HOT girls!!!

OH and btw Winnipeg is fun in the summer make sure you bring alot of mosquito repellent. :2 cents:

Keep telling yourself that.

What percentage of your GDP is directly tied to the US again? That said... I like Canada and all non-French Canadians (:Graucho)

Saying Canada's economy is not dependant on the US is akin to the arrogance displayed when many Americans dismiss Canada as irrelevant.
