Those are not American Marines. I agree that repubtards are making themselves look stupid but this picture looks to be of British military perhaps?
very good point Snubby.
It depends what you care about. If you care about the dems over the thugs in a political sense, smile. They are lickin' yo' boots.
If you care about the great nation of the USA, not much to smile about. Half of your political choice is dysfunctional, lowbrow, anti-science, anti everything. Just thugs that want to get their hands on power, at any cost to the country they are supposed to represent. Their failure means they are willing to bring down the USA with it, because of their stoopid sense of entitlement.
Speaking a someone who was VC of a conservative party branch in Sydney during the late 80's, I have no hesitation in describing the neo-gop as a disgrace to your great country, and a disgrace to democracy in general.
Another crybaby thread....brilliant!:smileylaughing:

Yes I look at things differently and I see large federal government as part of the problem not the solution.
Social issues like crime, drug addiction, mental health, education, resource management, industry, manufacturing, food supply, must be addressed in a more localized state to state manner. Anytime the the Federal government steps in the situation becomes worse.
Remember Antiedum 9/17/1862 and the 450,000 lives lost during the War of Northern Aggression. One of the bloodiest wars in human history!
The Federal Government is not your friend, amigo. :sombrero:
I suppose so. You're now the niggaz of the white/advanced world- well meaning people elsewhere feel sorry for your people.Quote:
Another crybaby thread.
In the Great Depression, the Cameroons raised over a million dollars to help your poor. One year during the Great depression, over 100,000 Americans apllied to emigrate to a land they thought would have more opportunity- Stalin's Russia. Bring back the good ole' days- now, the Venezuelan government throws some charity at your poor. You've lost the plot.
Are the rightwing down to complaining about umbrellas now? Very funny.
Wooo hooo - More from the punch and judy side show.

Reds v Blues.
Keeping people's thoughts away from what's really going on for years. Available in the US, UK, Europe, Australia.... you name it. same old same old. So pathetic is the pep rally WOOO HOOO democrat or GOP now that they can actually distract you with something about Umbrellas.
Lift up the canvas and see the real picture.
Without a doubt the entire USA federal government needs major surgery.Quote:

Should probably start with the constitution. It's pretty clear that in the Senate the small, redneck, rural states are over represented. Seems stupid to me that a state like Wyoming with half a million people has the same representation in the Senate as a state like California with almost 40 million people.Quote:

next time you're in the US, stay off of federal roads.
if you get cancer, don't take any treatments that were advanced with research funded by the federal government.
take your grandkids out of public schools. and if/when they want to go to college....no student loans.
don't fly within the US.
don't mail a letter through the US post office
you can no longer support US military action.
etc....
Thats the irony, and a big one. Plenty of affluence too. You certainly have a big problem in Congress, which is just plain dysfunctional. But I think a bigger problem than fed government is your people- hopelessly divided, and blinkered by partisanship- assisted of course by good ole fashioned manipulation, and a political system pretty much designed to stymie. And I think the biggest problem of all is with the white American male population- I think as a demographic they are currently acting as the major impediment, and the easiest demographic to be hoodwinked.Quote:

Considering they whipped themselves into a frenzy about arugula and what kind of mustard Obama likes I suppose the umbrella thing is a bit of a step up.
Only the Brits know how to carry a brolly, proper like. Potus should leave it to grunts.

Is there a thread for miscellaneous wacko, wing nut stories? Seems like every other day we have a new manufactured scandal or controversy emerging from the usual suspects and their media mouth pieces.
Oh goodness me there are plenty. Shame there is no thread for important stories, what is actually really happening. One of the biggest nett wealth transfers in human history (almost certainly the biggest actually), and absolutely nobody is listening.
Why? Because Obamas a muzzie and a socialist. :rolleyes:
And gets marines to carry his umbrella. :rofl:
Intellectual dishonesty right there ray. Understandable though considering your hatred of the military.Quote:

Anyway, I'm really disgusted the Commander in Chief of the US armed forces would get some marine to hold an umbrella, I really am. Even in the rain.
I mean it's bigger than Watergate, bigger than the gaping US fiscal debt hole, bigger than the balance of trade, bigger than anything. Ten times over. Way bigger than US Congress inability to pass anything, way bigger than getting into bed with Al Qaeda, way bigger than the fact that Saddam didn't have WMD's, and over 100k people are dead as a result, and a country is no longer functional even with a good old dose of amerkin knowhow. It's way bigger than the lies about reconstruction, and way bigger than the debacle in Afghanistan. As God is my witless.
