My sentiments also, but then we get accused of being isolationists. I don't think we should have as large a military footprint as we do. We are still conducting operations as if we are still in the cold war.

They would not be hating us if we had a foreign policy that promoted cooperation rather than military dominance. The oppressed will always fight, there will always be rebellion and uprising. Sadly we have burned that bridge, so now our choices are capitulate, or exterminate. Both terrible...

I knew one of the nutbirds would come along and call you a commie, I just knew it.:D

Nights is a lifestyle. Many who seek to be Owls do not realize this.

WE vote 98% Obama because we have an instinctive concern about people talking about "conserving" things. Those values you wish to conserve had us squarely and until VERY recently LEGALLY at the bottom of the social hierarchy that conservatives want to conserve. We are not stupid AAA. All this...

Yesterday was my day off, gotta work this weekend. Sunshine will reset your biorhythms, so I have to avoid it when possible. I was outside yesterday, inside today. The harvest is depressing this year. The corn was brown back in July. The talk around here is what kind of winter we are going...

As a Canadian, you may not be aware of the tension here in the states. Things are in flux. People are focusing on the message rather than the messenger. We are in the midst of an identity crisis here. Worse, the split is 50/50 and that is always a bad thing.

It's Cap'n, not Capt. Show some respect will ya?:D

Somehow, the bell got hung around the boomer cat. I don't really know how this meme started, but it is growing, I hear it in the real world, not just in the Matrix, and it bothers me a bit.

I actually realized this when my non political associates began coming to me. They know I am very political. They started telling me they are voting for Obama. At first I asked myself, why the need to say this? Then I realized that right now America is polarized, and if things get bad, folks...

It will be devastating. With Texas, Cali, Illini, and NY automatic blue states, the electoral math becomes untenable. This is why the GOP knows they MUST get their party back from the Tea Party.

Many of the right realize this, hence their vitriol. The mainline GOP knows this too, but they have a lot catching up to do thanks to Mittens.

midterms.

I did not respond right away because when you say AA's which group of AAs would you be referring to?

Hence, christies speech. He wants to expand that tent. He knows it is too small.

That was the impact. I woke up, went to ET. Heard this. No better way to start the day.

To add to this, as Gen Xer, the child of a boomer, I gotta say that in all fairness WWII tore a gaping hole in the fabric of humanity. They only sought to try prevent this from ever happening again.

Except that black people do not really look like monkeys. Our hair is not straight, our skin has a higher content of pigment than a monkey.
