Larry Kudlow says Iran is why we tanked

Quote from mschey:

If you can't see the difference, I don't think anything I can say will help.

Yes, I can easily measure the difference...
The west has a <b>much much</b> higher count of innocent civilians killed then a few upset muslims rattling sabers in their caves...

and yes, nothing you can say will help that... or change that as a basic fact...

Quote from mschey:

The real danger in the world are those few elitist pricks who think that ordinary people aren't smart enough to make their own decisions, and want to make the decisions about what is best, for them.

I'm not one of them and I'm all for the democratic system; it's the least bad system and the only one that will sustain itself.
What I said there is a grave danger here; I think one voter with an attitude like PandD's has more and a more dangerous influence on the future of this world than the (few) bad muslims for which he wants to eradicate an old and beatifull country like Lebanon.
So, every person has a right to vote, but the older I get (and the more I read ET) the more pessimistic I get.

Whether you like our system or not, doesn't matter. The fact is, it works. As i've said, we've accomplished more in 200 years then the rest of the world has done in 5000. We make mistakes, but we have also created a way to deal with those mistakes, and deal with problems, and there in lies the strenght of our form of government.

There are also a lot of disadvantages to this manic development cycle; the fact that these are hardly acknowledged is an example of what worries me.
Eg. in those 200 years we managed to deplete almost the whole supply of fossile fuels. If it was because of mere stupidity I would not care, but I feel that those (voted) in power wouldn't mind the fact that the resources over which they have control are getting thin.

I said, "If that ain't the pot calling the kettle black...I don't know what is....the bad ones (Muslims)attack women, children and civilians. They rape, kill, mame, and torture.

All this from a guy who can't even spell "maim" and clearly has never read a book.

I have been around the world, from modern countries, to third world hell holes, let me assure you that the rest of the world is highly overated.

Yeah, stupid other cultures, beautiful land, fascinating people, history, gorgeous beaches and seas, amazing architecture, food, and not to mention that other countries are stupid enough not to have joined us in war, have majorities that believe in evolution(heresy!), they provide their people with free college, and those assholes even give away health care! Can you imagine? The world outside of the US is one fucked up place huh?
