Everyday in the media we are constantly bombarded with safety warnings and recalls of things to avoid protecting ourselves. The next $600 video game that we need, will cause some kid named Hunter to fall off the bed and seizure. People are more interested in a singing competition on TV than the president violating the constitution. Our teachers recommending we medicate our children on Ritalin, when the kid buys pop and candy at school. Guys are becoming more and more feminine and do not like to work or save money, girls watch idiots on reality shows and dress and act like that. Our confidence is low, our account's are low and 3 world countries have a passion for learning, what is going to happen in the future? Will we change today? Gas prices are just the start, visit a foreign country and see they are on the up, we are at war. Are you doing someting to help prevent this trend?

Gee! And I thought all the anti-Americans were in foreign country's. We have the greatest country in the world, and I don't mean powerful or most loved. When you stand for something you end up with a whole lot of detractors. We are a country of hope and promise, faith and tolerance. You may not think so, but most of the world does. They have come here in thousands from all over earth to be part of this great country. Want to start changing things? Be a better person yourself. Start looking for the good in people instead of the faults. Begin to have faith in yourself, your neighbor, your friend, your God. But do something besides ***** and complain.

DISCLAIMER: i'm no longer non secular in any way or form. Male circumcision does in certainty have some medical advantages which includes reducing the value of penile maximum cancers, balanitis and penile infections, alongside with struggling with phimosis and paraphimosis, and particularly reducing the value of STDs transmission. i'm circumcised and that i do no longer locate my penis to be 'disfigured' and to be uncomplicated, i admire circumcised ones plenty extra effective than non-circumcised ones (Yeah, i'm gay.) EDIT: Why are you so obsessed in this concern? There are extra significant issues contained in the international to agonize approximately, like famines in Africa, state-arranged murders in dictatorships...and so on

Please do not take offence, but much of the problems you have issues with have been developed in the USA and we, in the UK, have followed headlong into absorbing the mindless drivel, much of it American, you correctly identify as being contributory factors in lessening our own 'natural' ability to take care of ourselves and responsibility for our behaviour towards others. When the winner of a manufactured music competition is more newsworthy than people dying in the Sudan then we should hang our collective heads in shame.
As for Gas prices, I take it that you are American and in your own country you get your gas (petrol) at a much cheaper price that we pay for it in the UK or in Europe as a whole. We pay probably about three to four times what you pay for a gallon and the USA is probably one of the biggest polluters in the world; probably the biggest.
I really think that the future for Europeans is to put, sorry to say this, some distance between Europe and your own country. My view is that America is too self centred and self-interested and does not have a global perspective. Hence, the richest country on earth is content to see people starve or die through famine and war or die of environmental changes caused to our planet because Americans want cheap gas or cheap anything?
It is not really about revolution it is about people accepting responsibility for themselves, others, their environment and the world as a whole. We only have one planet to live on and that planet cannot be dominated by the actions or agendas of single countries however rich and powerful.
In the UK there has been debate about the nanny state and our relationship with America. We have been heavily influenced by American culture and this has lead us to accepting drivel on our TV's, obesity in our children eating junk food, gratuitously violent media images, a rise in youth crime, people without a moral compass or work ethics, the list goes on. There is no need for this, most Europeans hail from far more sophisticated cultures. We have been victims of globalisation, some aspects of it are beneficial, many are not. The historical identity and culture of a country and nation are, in my view, assets that help us develop a greater understanding of ourselves and therefore others. As separate nations we should embrace our history and culture and learn from it. We should not blithley accept other cultures as leading cultures. We owe much of our develpment as a race to third world countries and we should try to learn that, in the grand scheme of things, we are merely caretakers of the planet and not owners. We might get along better as a result and grow together and in a more harmonious world as we begin to understand ourselves and the planet we live on.

It's TIME. The strategy is to point out the errors and speak the truth as urgently as you can to everyone. Write, call, e-mail as much as you can. The people are stressed over this, they are concerned and they need your support.

You got it right except for one thing - how has the president violated the Constitution?

Your sentiment is noble but the way you are linking together events seems slightly insane. Sorry.

Amen, brother! Now, for the logistics of this . . .
1) destroy the feminazi's
2) destroy the media
3) eliminate the major political parties
If you can think of more, please add them.
