What do you dislike about America?

[Pat]

I dislike the politicians trampling on the constitution.

[mwillman]

I dislike the big business shills called the republican party.
I dislike country folk who think they have a clue about the majority of this nation and who stonewall change.
I dislike Wyoming/Alaska/North Dekota and any other state with less people then a small city having 2 senators.
I dislike racists, wallstreet bankers, and 80% of the wealthy.

[bairdi]

I dislike stolen elections, illegal wars, corporate personage, conservative media, apathy by the majority of citizens, severe unemployment, suffering masses, illiteracy, people being homeless, despair and poverty in the midst of plenty. Let that suffice for now.

If you dislike stolen elections then you must really hate Al Franken. Let's start with stolen elections. After that we can take each of your complaints in order. If you dislike illiteracy, why in the world would you be a liberal? You guys have destroyed our public education system.

[Brian-W]

But you were in love with GWB when he was doing it....

and you're in love with those same politicians when they're voting to bomb another country back to the stone age.

Interesting.

Conservatives destroyed our public education system by defunding it and funneling the money to their cronies in the defense industry.

Bullshit. Money isn't the answer. Education is the problem. You don't have a money problem. You have an education problem because of corrupt unions.

Interesting.
You infer a lot.
Your internet psychic abilities have failed you.

[foxbaron]

I dislike the fact that we have literally "thrown God out of our Country".

I think this Country has turned its back on God and that is why we have the problems we have today.

Where did he/she go.
Sorry but until you can prove that your god exists I cant beleive that he/she was thrown out of anything.

The country is suffering becuase of money hunger wallstreet asshats and conservatives trying to force their illogical system of bumper sticker morality on the rest of us.

Why do you dislike equal representation?

[mwillman]

Why do you dislike equal representation?

Its not equal representation, It gives small population states way to much power in our government.

[ROdger Right]

Its not equal representation, It gives small population states way to much power in our government.

While only letting major population centers decide what our country does is somehow equal?

Shut your Californian ass up.

[mwillman]

The nation is its people, giving small unpopulated states so much power just gives big business more power to screw over the people of this nation.

[Lou_Dobbs]

I dislike Republicans and Democrats.

I dislike it when someone says ''Republicans are liars'' and someone comes back with ''oh yeah well Democrats are liars to'' then it's ''Republicans started the spending!'' followed by ''democrats promised change! not doing exactly what republicans did on a larger scale!'' ''oh yeah well republicans ruined healthcare!'' '' then why have some democrats been against it and why are the proposed bills so awful?'' ''because republicans are in bed with the insurance industry'' '' oh yeah well democrats are in bed with bankers'' '' oh yeah well republicans are in bed with oil companies'' get my freaking point?

They both SUCK!!!!! They are both to blame and if you defend one no matter what you are a complete idiot.

Don't you have some Mexicans to beat up there Lou.

[Lou_Dobbs]

Yeah Lou hates Mexicans so much he married one.

[John Galt]

Now that 'The Wild West Show' is over, I'm more comfortable with the worldview of our country.

I'll like it even better when we're out of Iraq/Afghanistan.

I'm troubled by the way a seemingly good concept, gets ruined by loopholes, technicalities, and poor management....our failed social programs are proof of that.

I'm troubled by the breakdown of the family structure, which in turn leads to uneducated masses procreating. Part of this is due to the need for two incomes in the household, and part is due to the 'entitlement' issues we seem to have adopted over the last few decades.


We've got the best govt. money can buy. That's got to end.

[CosmicRocker]

our so called culture.
Loud mouthed overbearing ego's with their constant wants and desires.
Public rudeness.
Foul mouthed so called music, trashy dressing, punk styles, running down America because it's "cool" or radical chic'.

The right wing America "love it or leave it" attitude.

It's a country, it has a lot of flaws in the way it is run.
By Congress and the moneygrabbers.
Congressional debt and pork spending

But the Constitution simply amazes me - I think it's the best design a country could be.
Seperation of powers, and sovereignity of the pple.

[Boogie man]

Don't you have some Mexicans to beat up there Lou.

You're confused. Lou doesn't hate Mexicans. Lou thinks everyone should obey the law. Why don't you explain to us why Mexicans should be allowed to break the law.

Does it really matter what the rest of the world thinks?

America needs to stop worrying about the rest of the world and focus on the problems at home.

American people need to come before anybody else on this planet.


We need to leave other countries alone and try to build the best America possible. Enough of this trying to please everybody.

And this attitiude....applauded by the conservatives, is why we're up to our ears in trouble.

We had the support of virtually every other nation on the planet, until we set out to steal 'our' oil from Iraq.

Now, we stand alone against everyone. Now that our high tech weaponry has been proven obsolete, we aren't the super power we claim to be.

Everyone is dumping the dollar. It's worthless. Let's see how much we do, or don't need anyone else.

I do agree, we need to stop invading other countries, every time they refuse to play by our rules.

[Brian-W]

Does it really matter what the rest of the world thinks?



Since as GWB said "Oceans can't protect us anymore"

YES, it does matter what the rest of the world thinks.

In case you haven't looked at a globe lately, we're all on this raft together.

And unless you're willing to go to war with any nation who looks at you wrong, it might be a good idea for America to put away some of our arrogance and realize that this is not 1945 and we're not cock of the walk like we used to be. There are a lot more players in the game these days. Humility can be a virtue.

[Boogie man]

Iran just told us to fuck off. Now what do we do?

[xav8terx]

Iran just told us to fuck off. Now what do we do?



We ignore their punk asses. Why act like pussies, what is it that you are so afraid of? Should we bomb them into submission? Look at how well that is working in the other two cluster fucks you fuckin right wing pansies got us into.

Why didn't we "ignore" Hitler? I don't think it's very easy to "ignore" a bunch of religious fanatics with an atomic bomb who want to use it.

[xav8terx]

Why didn't we "ignore" Hitler? I don't think it's very easy to "ignore" a bunch of religious fanatics with an atomic bomb who want to use it.

Because the war machine needed to make money. Why didnt we ignore Vietnam...because of money, it's always about the money. Not religion, not human needs, not suffering....money.

[JJGlanton]

I imagine most of Europe is, or at least was, extremely grateful for our greed.:lmao2:

That's something they just can't get into their deluded little heads.

It's David and Goliath all over again...we cannot 'seal the deal', even though we hold all the high tech toys.

We've been shown to be impotent. Our open door policies were used against us to perfection. It's time we just realize that we're all in this together, and these 'third world' nations aren't the learning disabled children that we think they are...

We've made them billionaires, and now they hold all of the aces.

That is, until the huge corporations stop running our govt..

[xav8terx]

Yeah because how long did it take us to come to the "rescue"?? How many people died before we showed up to save the day? Greed, plain and simple.

[JJGlanton]

Yeah because how long did it take us to come to the "rescue"?? How many people died before we showed up to save the day? Greed, plain and simple.

if it was "greed, pure and simple" you would think we would have entered earlier, rather than later.... the problem with responding to such a dumbshit post is that my response rests on the assumption that.."you would think".

And for me to continue would require you to open your eyes...we both know the right wont let you do that so what's the point.

[JJGlanton]

And for me to continue would require you to open your eyes...we both know the right wont let you do that so what's the point.
yeah. Its the right that won't let me accept that we entered WWII because "the war machine needed to make money". good lefty......

[Boogie man]

So we didn't need to stop Hitler? What would the world look like today if the allies of WWII laid down their arms and let Hitler have his way?

[Moby]

I think it's obvious what I dislike most about America.

[foxbaron]

Yeah because how long did it take us to come to the "rescue"?? How many people died before we showed up to save the day? Greed, plain and simple.


The point is, We did come to the rescue!

The point is, it is always US that saves the day.

The point is, without the USA the entire world would be at war or those countries that enjoy freedom today probably wouldn't have it.

The point is, WE ARE THE POLICEMEN OF THE WORLD.

Were.


And, it isn't like we did it because we're so goddamned altruistic. There's always been a catch, and it's usually oil.

Problem is, we made billionaires out of those who sat on top of the oil, and we aren't the only players in the game anymore.

We're insignificant. You can keep pointing to ancient history if it makes you feel better, but our system of govt. has been proven to be just as ineffective as every other one that we love to criticize.

Wave your (Chinese) made flag if you like.

Now, we're just the aging, pension ready, corrupt cop. We can't even chase down the street punks.
