Lemme see, letting in a whole population of illegals, many of which are terrorist, just not on the scale of 9-11, and hoping that they will stay and be good? Lying about keeping the budget in line with what Reagan attempted to do, but ending up going far into the red?
Yeah, I know you can blame part of the over spending on 9-11 and the destructive canes of the last two years. But really, could he not at least try?
As for comments by myself or Mac stating that all of the worlds evils have connections to our government, I think that neither one of us ever made that statement. I know I have not. So why exaggerate? You just blow your logical support of our gooberment with statements like that.
While not everything that has gone wrong over the last 100 years is the fault of the US gooberment, much has been.
Take the division of Germany after the war. Patton had it on the nose. Recruit the German army and take on the Russians. Take care of that problem right here and now. And if needed, pull the nuke option.
OR China during Korea. Why hamstring the generals that knew not only could we win, but it would save thousands of lives many years down the road.
And why not wean ourselves of oil? We have the knowledge, we have the technology. We proved that we could change our fuel distribution industry within two years if the proper push was given. Why not get us off the oil wagon? Or let us drill our own reserves instead of allowing some rag head terrorist country to dictate policy to us?
Too many of our thorns in our side were put in power by our gooberment, only to pose a threat later on when our plant turned on the hand that placed him in power. Why? Why should we ever get so involved with crap like that? Why should hundreds if not thousand of our servicemen die for nothing. Can you say Vietnam? CIA got us involved, promised the "freedom fighters" the USA would be there for them, then when we bugged out, tens of thousands of them died when we left them hanging.
OR like Iraq 1, when we promised the Kurds that we would protect them if they attacked from the north creating a diversion to split Saddam's troops as we went in? How did we help them when we stopped without taking him out the first time?
There are may more screw ups just like these, all on the international level.
Now take here at home. We punish the law abiding citizen with 48% taxes if they are lucky, 75% if they are not. we let criminals out because of a technicality, or worse, because we think they have served enough time and we dont have room for them. We stop innocent people from being able to purchase legal drugs over the counter, but do nothing to stop those that would use them illegally. We have managed to keep 25% of our prison population in our jails, even though they are not even US citizens? Why?
You know, you have posted many things similar to what I have just posted, but that does not make you un-American, but yet when I post it, you get on your high horse and proclaim we are un-American.
You poor pitiful fool. I am proud to be an American. But there are many things that I can not be proud of that this country has had part in.
As for the wire taps, they have been going on for many years with and without judicial approval. Only if you intend to use it during the course of prosecution would you need it to be a legal wire tap.
d
s kill each other over oil and holy lands. Problem is that the oil money has now translated into investments elsewhere. Kinda like taxing the tobacco companies out of existence. Ain't gonna happen. Too diversified. Same with the oil countries.
