Because the Republicans control the House, Senate, White House and Supreme Court.
They are the only ones who can do anything about anything, but they shouldn't expect others to just sit back and not criticize when they do things wrong.
Assuming that you are god and always right is just juvenile. Assuming that everyone should treat you as a god who is always right is a form of insanity.

Because they only make up about 30%, same with Cons, they make up about 30% (true Libs and Cons that is). Since some of what the Libs want is wacky (good intentions but likely bad outcomes), about 21% of the people in the middle vote Republican, and the other 19% vote Independent. That's why the elections come out 49-51 (Dem-Rep).

Most of our problems with the Muslim world stem from our own greed. In 1953 Iran wanted to nationalize the oil industry but the Brits had a company there called the Anglo Iranian oil co. that had interests in the oil. They were offered money for their interests but turned it down. Truman did not interfere but when Eisenhower got in they were able to convince him that Iran was in danger of allying with the Russians so with the aid of British and American intelligence they brought the shah to full power. The shah eventually became a brutal dictator but the people revolted and replaced him. This also led to the invasion by students of our embassy there. My point in telling you this is that in many ways we are responsible for the hate against us.
Reagan did nothing to try to sooth relations and in fact encouraged Saddam Hussein in his war with Iran. So you can blame who you wish, but to me it seems we got ourselves into this quandary and the best course of action would be to admit past mistakes and try for better relations. I really don't buy the fact that most Muslim nations really don't want peace with us. They know they would be annihilated if they were to seriously damage this country say with a nuclear or biological attack.

Instead of accusing me of being high, why don't you take your
thorazine & ask something intelligent?
Did you even read your question before posting?
Or, did you get on with your next question of hate?
You're one of the idiots trying to divide this country.
Could you be a terrorist or working for them?
Your English needs help.

I'm not a Liberal and will not respond to your silly question. But I might suggest that, if you want to be taken seriously, you might at least learn to articulate with basic proper grammar. You sound like a high school drop out.

This is really strange you ask because I was just asking a radical conservative the other day the same question when I was helping him outta the gutter with alcohol on his breath and dope for a brain.Luckily I got his keys from him and called him a cab!

We have. We've been bettering our educations and learning the difference between 'there', 'their' and 'they're'. It wouldn't hurt you to do the same.
