But the world neighborhood doesn't want to play nice back. Should we just let everyone attack our country until there is nothing left. America has come out as the powerhouse, but those countries don't make us a laughing stock when we bail them out of whatever crap they go and get themselves.

You can dislike a President and wish they were out of the office all you want. But your line of reasoning is EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. Extremism has the potential to breed terrorism. Speaking of wishes, I wish the FBI and CIA could keep an eye on you in case your logic impaired brain leads you to turn into one of those American-born terrorist sympathizers who join the Taliban.

This is ironic. Seriously.

And I ALMOST wish, big difference.

There is nothing dangerous with thinking, and it isn't that extreme. However, I was heavily recruited by the FBI for a job before I decided to go to grad school. They obviously don't think that disagreeing with the current administration is that "dangerous."

Actually it is ironic that you are so wrapped up in yourself that you think that anyone who disagrees obviously sympathizes with the Taliban. Talk about logic impaired.

And thus endeth today's lesson of how "political humor" isn't always humorous. It can have ill intentions and much deeper meanings.

yes it is

that's hateful


lesson for today:

hateful and terrorist mean two different things, which is why they are two different words

There's a big difference between disagreeing with the current administration, and "almost" wishing that someone would shoot the POTUS.

Not really because when you get beyond the extra words, the meaning is all the same.

But if you insist:

I ALMOST wish there was a delivery of brain cells where you reside. :p

haha...she was heavily recruited by the FBI before going to grad school.

Someone pass the champagne or something.

You're the one logically impaired. Go tell the FBI about those comments and see if they still want to employ you? Or better yet the secret service. Your only reasoning for someone not to kill the President is because that would make him a martyr, if that aspect was taken away, then yes you are most certainly saying that you would want someone to kill the President. Your comments are not well thought out and are indeed radical.

It isn't that rare, they like people with extensive language backgrounds, logic, math, political science or law.

Considering that my first bachelors was a double major in philosophy and math, it wasn't that odd.

Just because I disagree with you and the current administration, doesn't make me an idiot. I am not so wrapped up in myself that I don't believe that you could be smart. I do believe you to be short sighted, and this post proves that.

Oh, trust that I know. ;)

It's just funny that you volunteered that as if you said the same thing to the FBI that you said in this thread.

Do you really think this is why I think you're an idiot? :( Lord help.

Ok..how is this

George the First (or the Elder) POTUS 1989-93

George the Second (or the Lesser) - POTUS 2001-2009

I believe the FBI thing. The FBI and CIA often approach people within extremist circles, trying to persuade them to provide information to the country.

DaemonSeid 05-19-2008 03:58 PM

Some days I find it pointless to debate some matters that I cannot change or if I wait long enough, (1-20-09) will change on its own....
