...and the republicans crawl out of the woodwork...
you just need to take it with a sense of humor, like i did when his bro finally got over his state's problems and the oval office was a mockery the world over because of what our "democracy" we're trying to force other nations to follow suit with has become thoughout the years. it doesn't take a genius to take that position, but it also doesn't take a genius to figure out that you shouldn't try to piss off your allies. if NATO didn't find reasonable evidence to attack anyone perhaps we should have stayed with them... i could never be so "patriotic" to watch everything unfold and still believe anything there was justified, though i admit i never really was behind him on that. i support the troops, but he sends them over and tries cutting pay and veterans benefits, what kind of morale is that providing for these soldiers? and after all is said and done, doesn't it make you the slightest bit worried as to where we could end up if his type of diplomacy continues? there are countless other things i could say, like citing all the false names he gave to environmental issues which were opposite of what they actually provided for or even the failure to provide funding for his widely approved of "no child left behind" act, but i will leave it on gay marriage.
anyway...it's a general forum with some users sharing like ideas, jokes about whatever countries (eh), and nobody is resulting to r-rated flaming here. this is a group of like-minded adults having a conversation. with a topic like "gay marriage" did you honestly think there would be a lack of "what the hell is this guy thinking" when he wants to turn a document providing freedoms for all citizens, not those with the same beliefs/backgrounds, into a blockade for a minority group. a group whose rights are recognized when it comes to descrimination in the workplace yet he's trying to pass that descrimination onto this document of freedoms, the constitution... all because a few states have voted (!) to allow this type of union. i could be wrong, but wasn't this country founded on a democracy of freedom "for the people, by the people, of the people?" the people have spoken, but the head representative of our country doesn't like it and, for whatever reason, thinks his opinion trumps that of the people. for this type of logic, or lack thereof, he is guaranteed to be verbally crucified by these same people. what the united states needs is some real patriots, not for the administration, for the country which almost seems afraid to oppose the almighty ruler because of his actions on the throne.
nobody is forced to read any thread here... if there was a thread called "bush r0xx0rs" i would read it only for the laughs it would bring, not because i expected to agree with any of the posters. would it be alright if i was a clanner in game instead of omni? would it be ok if i opposed the corporate leaders then?
