lol i shoulda known a comment like that was coming... Im not even gonna get into politics, you can prolly guess mine lol and i dont want to start a flame war :)
sorry, not into politics.they all run the country into the ground anywaze.no one is doin anythin to change anything.we sill hav the same problems we did years ago, and not one of them has done a damed thing to change that.
We don't have the same problems from years ago. We have all new problems. :D

I have to say I would feel a certain sense of sick pride being the one to start a flame war lol jk :)
I have no problem at all with the current goverment because I am comming from a poor country (Dominican Republic) and when you begin to compare both countries you realize how fourtanate you are to have all of the benifts you have here in US of A, and all of the freedom. I don't care who the FEMA director is as long as they do their job.Quote:

He didn't do his job though.
He was a Bush crony being rewarded for his work during the last election.
Cronyism is pretty much par for the course in politics it's just in the instance promoting someone to a position they were incapable of managing has come back to bite.
I think I heard on the radio Bush saying, "You're doing a great job Brownie" just a shortly after the levees broke.

(Couple of Bush/Blair skits here)
It seems that way to you because you moved up.....from Worse to Bad. I wont deny that we have great opportunities and benefits in the US, but we are not showing our full potential, because US continues to make costly mistakes (**cough** Electing GWB **cough cough**) :)Quote:

hate to be an ass, but ...... TOLD YOU SO ... also i'd like to leave you w/ the end of Bill Maher monolog from his show last night
Now, I know what you're saying. You're saying that there's so many other things that you, as president, could involve yourself in…Please don't. [laughter] I know, I know, there's a lot left to do. There's a war with Venezuela, and eliminating the sales tax on yachts. [laughter] Turning the space program over to the church. [laughter] [applause] And Social Security to Fannie Mae. [laughter] Giving embryos the vote. [laughter] [applause] But, sir, none of that is going to happen now. Why? Because you govern like Billy Joel drives. [laughter] You've performed so poorly I'm surprised you haven't given yourself a medal. [laughter] You're a catastrophe that walks like a man. [laughter]
Herbert Hoover was a shitty president, but even he never conceded an entire metropolis to rising water and snakes. [laughter]
On your watch, we've lost almost all of our allies, the surplus, four airliners, two Trade Centers, a piece of the Pentagon and the City of New Orleans…Maybe you're just not lucky! [laughter] [applause] [cheers]
I'm not saying you don't love this country. I'm just wondering how much worse it could be if you were on the other side. [laughter] So, yes, God does speak to you, and what he's saying is, “Take a hint.” [laughter]
I don't mean to bring the tone down but....
Is it just me or does el Presidente look like he's squeezing out a brown one in the USA today picture?
From worse to bad?
Then where in the world is good? Where does this magical utopia exist?
Bush has no photo charisma... he eithier looks like a monkey or constipated in my opinion.Quote:

Crap. I can't read utopian. I'm screwed.
Hmmm, Tony Blair has a chimp like look to him too. It's the jug lugs he's got.
Great two of the most powerful nations in the world being run by monkeys.
Planet of the apes here we come.
