The Red and The Blue.

That's because we are no longer a democracy; we are a hypocrisy. All the public did was bitch and complain about Bush the past 3 years, but then when it came time to do something about, they stick their tail between their legs and stand behind him because they are too big of a pussy to stand behind their word instead and are too afraid of change. Politics aside; we're just a bunch of hypocritical pussies

Oh well, hopefully Bush doesn't fuck over the country (and other countries) too bad in the next 4 years so we can actually make it through to a real election

Actually, we are far closer to a Republic than a true Democracy........

And to correct you, it would appear that 48% of the people did a bulk of the complaining.

This was a real election, decided by the people. This was complete Democracy in action. And it worked.

Depite who your candidate was, we had a record turnout of voters at the polls, and those voters clearly elected thier leader for the next 4 years.

Election day was a great day, as we showed the rest of the world how the heart and soul of the USA REALLY WORKS!!!!!

That's not what his approval ratings said a majority of the time //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/rolleyes.gif.c1fef805e9d1464d377451cd5bc18bfb.gif But again, people pussied out; it's that simple. All talk no action, either that or they were talking out their ass.

No, you witnessed hypocrisy in action. Persecuting Bush for his actions, then voting him back into office.

Mr. Bush's approval ratings did not dip much below 50%, but on a few occasions.

The real problem this election was the post election poles before the results started comming in. They were darn near completely opposite of what actually happened. -What happened there?

Let it go. Those that supported Mr. Bush, supported him. Those that supported Mr. Kerry, supported him.

All talk no action, either that or they were talking out their ass. Umm the approval rating formed from an online poll of 800 people? Wow thats accurate.

No, you witnessed hypocrisy in action. Persecuting Bush for his actions, then voting him back into office. Nope the anti bush people were very vocal. Most pro Bush people just sat back and watched them burn. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/popcorn.gif.32dd9e22fd77e77bc3c907062768fcd2.gif So just because you here 20,000 people talk crap about bush there are the other 25,000 people just shaking there head.

Just think about that.

please take the time to realize that the rest of the world thinks we are retarded. my girlfriends brother is at cambridge - where, as he has told us, everyone is dumbfounded at how americans could vote for 'that man'

Still complaining I see... //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/furious.gif.fc81ca146dbff91fede3ed290dbc4f4c.gif

Hmm....there's a flaw in logic here. You called out someone for making a generalization about the way people in Iraq feel. He said some of his friends were in the Army, and they all told him the Iraqi citizens were grateful our troops were there; you dismissed it. Now one of your friends in another country says they think America is retarded, and you chalk it up as common knowledge. Consistent.

my thoughts exactly. I was the one with friends in Iraq for those that didn't see the other thread.

Yep. They are *******. Next time they get into trouble, they'll be begging us to come get them out.

America isn't the strongest country in the world for no reason at all.

Just realize that position is quickly dwindling

No. No its not.

 

[squeak9798 5,000+ posts]

No. No its not.

Yes. Yes it is. Other economies are catching up to ours, and quickly

 

[rx7vert 10+ year member]

Our position as the strongest country in the world is not dwindling. Who is catching up? We are still growing in strength, any other country, even if they are growing some, are no were near us.

well, you forget that thare are a few things that might lead one to doubt the iraq contradiction (iraqis killing hundreds of americans)
though there is little to contradict what i asserted. including the fact that tony blair cleverly disrespected bush's election shortly after nov2.

Many of the people in Iraq that are fighting against America aren't even Iraqis. There are a few Iraqis that are fighting against us, but not as many as there are ones fighting with us.

and just as there are a few Iraqis fighting against us, there are also people from europe that have great respect for America.

The flaw in your logic still exists.

You are a hypocrit.
