Dear World

[Kiwon]

My post was one that was meant to inject a little levity.......and a bit of truth at the same time.

You guys can be such hyprcrites sometimes.

Let's see.....what part was levity, and what part was truth? And tell us about the hypocricy.

The truth part is easy, "We, the United States of America, your top quality supplier of the ideals of liberty and democracy.."

The rest of it is sophomoric crap.

--4,000 volunteer soldiers dead in Iraq to liberate millions means nothing to liberals.
--George Bush did more for AIDS patients and Africans in general than anyone in history. Liberals don't care because he's a Republican.

Hypocrites? Prop 8 was democratically decided in California but the Dems beholden to LGBT special interests want to roll back the will of the people and use the courts to legislate.

Hypocrites? A stolen election in MN? No problem. It's a Dem that wins.

Hypocrites? Pelosi claimed that she would run the most fair and transparent Congress in history. Broken promises and corruption everywhere. Ah, who cares, it's Dems that benefit.

Liberals have no worthy standards. The ends justify the means.

I love it....my expectations were met

Well, if you expected to be ridiculed, yes, they were met.

A+'s to all of you.

When I read the first post in this thread, I thought Gex had started another thread. Very sad.

Personally, I thank the man for keeping this country terrorist free for 7 years. And I was always proud of the fact that the rest of the world disliked him.

First of all, pardon my French, but FUCK THE WORLD! Ta hell with the bunch of foreign ingrates.

There, now that I got that out of my system and feel better, let me say this:

Contrary to the moronic original post of this thread (not name-calling, as I referred to the idiotic content rather than the ...... person ....... writing the post), the Bush years were a refreshing return to promotion of the wonderful American ideals of freedom, representative government, free enterprise capitalism, and civilized western values throughout the world--after an eight year hiatus while Clinton was in office.

The result of this was the Bush Administration being villified by the God damned America-hating mainstream media as interventionists, cowboys, militarists, imperialists, and all around inflicters of something unwanted on those pristine pagans, evildoers, perpetrators and victims of tyranny, and sufferers of all manner of poverty and depravity brought on by their socialist dictatorships and religions and cultures of depraved ignorance.

......and not that it matters, I didn't write it, it was received today. I would imagine it's made the rounds. Altho, probably not on your 'circuit'.

You accomplished neither trust me.

You're right, most everone else is wrong.

"CBS) President Bush will leave office as one of the most unpopular departing presidents in history, according to a new CBS News/New York Times poll showing Mr. Bush's final approval rating at 22 percent.

Seventy-three percent say they disapprove of the way Mr. Bush has handled his job as president over the last eight years.
Mr. Bush's final approval rating is the lowest final rating for an outgoing president since Gallup began asking about presidential approval more than 70 years ago."

Personally, I like the man. I think he is a good man. But man that listened to and took the advise of those around him that was not good.

The sarcastic tripe like this thread and the liberals expect conservatives to join arm in arm with them?

Hey, I'm all for humor. I'm all for debate on policies, etc. But posts like this are pure b.s.

I have plenty to dispute the past president on, but it's amazing how anyone fails to realize that since 9/11, we have not been attacked, mainly due to intel gathering efforts enacted after 9/11 by the Bush administration.

But of course all we hear is the caterwalling of the world when Khalid Sheikh Mohammed is waterboarded.

If Obama succeeds, I will have no problem giving him his props. I don't give a damn who gets credit, I just want things to work more efficiently without trouncing liberties.

But it's moronic threads like this one which only ADD to the rancor between liberals and conservatives. Is this the "change" you voted for?

Conservatives here point out facts and we're accused of bringing the Romper Room down. But someone who doesn't like the previous admin. can post something like this and we're all supposed to accept it as HUMOR.

SPARE ME.

PIP, we've had this debate ad nauseum.

Most people pay attention to politics 2 weeks, every 4 years. They largely believe what they are spoon fed in 30 second soundbites, which, in my opinion at least, is not the "best" method to acquire political accumen.

I could care less about what "American People" think of this man, I care deeply about how he's been villified, criticized, condemned, judged, and mocked for the past 5 years (as you did in the 1st post).

You'll find out that most of it was UNTRUE. Oh, and if you delve deeply into the advice he was given, most of it was damn solid.

We are now embarking on the era where all you liberals show us how it "should" be done. We shall see. It is my opinion that it has been tried since the 40's without much success, but we'll see. I hope Obama is successful, that is good for my country, but I'm not on board the bus yet.

Well said DD. The thing I have come to realize about true liberals is, they are in their own world. They live and breath this stuff day to day among themselves. They know no other point of view. They know no one that voted for GWB and to this day cannot figure out how he was elected- twice.

In the true spirit of today, of the words that were spoken today. .......

Watching the ceremony today I was disturbed by the reaction of the people in attendence when former President Bush was announced. It was wrong.
As was the post I posted. I'm going to apologize.
It won't happen again.

Very interesting. It takes a big and good person to do that, PIP. Of course, you can afford to be magnanimous today--on the big day for YOUR side.

I will, however, try to join the "spirit of today" and apologize for my "fuck the world" line too. What I said about the media, however, is 100% true.

You can never say enough bad things about how the media manipulates people. They are really awful. Media should be unbiased 100% but that will probably never be the case. All you can do is read, analyze and make your own conclusions.

100% true. However, not enough people in this country (especially of the black persuasion) are capable of doing that. The last elections prove that.

I don't see it that way at all. Blacks wanted someone they could look up to and maybe inspire an entire race of people in this country. The inner cities are filled with racial minorities who feel trapped and beaten down by society..actual or perceived.

I'm not saying Obama is some sort of shining ray of hope that will right all the wrongs of the earth, but what if this election helps 1000 inner city black kids across the country by making them think that they can succeed in the US despite what others around them are saying? Isn't that worth it? Do you really think that Obama's going to hit the White House and the entire country is going to flush down a toilet because of him?
