Sorry, the graph did not get recognized. If you read it left to right you will get the idea. Our nations currency is in the negative. When hyper inflation gets here, the debating will then stop.

[Phaedrus]

Thank you Phaedrus, I'm not a good typer/computer person. Your post is a leftist web sight, which will say anything to make the king of leftist look like he is on top. We could go back and forth posting left or right web sights arguing a subject such as popularity, which still is subject to opinion. So, only two faults? Thank you Phaedrus for your approval on all the rest, not that I was looking for your approval, but it is nice to read.

Sorry, but I am not approving of the rest of your post and I don't see where you provided evidence of your statement about our international approval ratings.

That's all that Hope & Change!

Hope is for that Obama can bamboozle the American people
&
Change well it stands for The dollar is going to be worthless...

~P

It is not about Obama and never was. He is just the current by -product from the progressive agenda. It is about a competing phliosophy of how we live our lives. Do you beleive in government or the individual ? Do you beleive that God gives you your rights or is it the government that dictates them for you ? Do you beleive in one world government or the sovereignty of a nation that gives you complete independence and self government? Do you beleive in the freedom and liberty to live your life the way you want or do you prefer the oppresion and tyrannical setting of socialism or Maxism ? Do you want to work hard, play by the rules and create a life for yorself or do want to live it according to the all mighty government? Would you rather decide how to spend and donate your hard earned money or is that the government's job to redistrubute the wealth according to their self proclaimed wisdom? Do we want elected officals obligated to the U.N. or are our elected officals obligated to U.S. citizens?

We are the hope and change we are lookng for. Sorry but it is really that simple. Don't let anyone tell you that it is more compilcated because it's not.When these questions get asked out in the open and straight up I think the answers are pretty simple, at least for most of us.

We should all think for ourself. We just need to be honest with each other .

Sometimes you need to prove a/or/your point.

BF paints a picture of intolerance. His whole post is either/or, black/white. He is unwilling to coexist in the middle.

LOL ,You really take the cake there pal...There is no middle ground to blessings,freedom and opportunity . You want to max all three out the best you can. What we lost we will get back. . But you know what Phaedrus, it's not prison and planes and ships leave for all over the world everyday.I can see you now arguing at the airport or seaport when everyone else is trying to get into the country and you're telling everyone once again just how right you are while trying to get out..

[Phaedrus]

I'm not arguing a middle ground to blessings, freedom and opportunity. I'm arguing that your view of how to get there is one-sided. I'm also suggesting that you consider any deviation from your opinion to be extremism.
