Other - Politics & Government - September 2007

I'm an American citizen, I voted against Bush and his war. He is as unpopular here as he is abroad.

America once was a respected nation. Now, we are frightening and pissing off the entire world. Other than our stance on Iran, the rest of the world wants nothing to do with us.
Our allies, some have stuck with us (THANK you and bless you), and others have (rightly?) abandoned us. But you can't really blame them.

The world was with us after 9-11, and supported us in Afghanistan. George Bush has destroyed all of the goodwill that the world had toward us when he unilaterally invaded Iraq. Now we are seen as a villain and a menace. Some nations may be arming themselves because they percieve us as a threat, so it's our own fault.

When the world turns its back on your country, it's time to admit that you could be wrong.

To non-US citizens: What can we do to right this wrong? How can we regain your respect?

I love my country, but that doesn't mean I support everything it does.

I think that most people are focused on the immediate war in the Middle East to think about other countries rising up in the shadow. We seem to hear less and less about other troublesome countries such as Korea or Vietnam. The only country we hear about is Iraq.

Okay everyone, lets hear your opinion. Here's a fun question for you on this holiday weekend. Do UFO's exist, and if so, do you think the government is withholding information? If so, why?

How long would it take to actually get all the troops, support systems, sub contractors and especially all of our trillions of dollars of equiptment back on US shores. Or are we just going to leave all those armaments for the Muslims?

I don't get it. It seems to me that the cop was simply a jerk. The next time I take a crap and reach for a piece of toilet paper on the floor, I guess I had better make sure my palm is facing down.

I think some queer named Mike Rogers just decided to get rid of Craig because Craig opposes same sex marriage. I think that the cop was also a queer with a similar motive. What do you think? Or, do you think?

Or, do you prefer to leave it to others?
