did you hit reply to the wrong post? Because that's about the only way I can explain your rant about Cuba and moving elsewhere. On the chance that you are a drooling idiot that you simply are confused, I'll go ahead and respond anyway, just for your sake. I do not want this country to be Cuba, and you'll be hard pressed to find a statement from me that even implies such. And if I did, why would that require me to move? If enough people want Cuba, those people will get it done. As I do not, I'll work against it. Fortunately, we do not have very many Cuba fans here. A far greater concern is corporatism or some even worse variant of fascism. And no, I won't assume by your many misplaced ideas that you are a fascist.
As that quote was a response to yet another of your 'everything is everything' posts, it's not clear you understand the concept of 'hype'.
"Nonono. I don't want the country to become Cuba. I just want the government to be involved in every aspect of business. I also want them to run our healthcare system and take away all privately owned guns. And I wish our rulers could be more socialist. But apart from that I want to keep things the American Way. Also, these aren't the 'droids you're looking for." Ah. My bad.
If you insist on responding to things nobody has said, you will likely be ignored. You may now put your dunce cap on and stand in the corner.
In regards to President Obama leaving lots of the Bush era programs in place that he campaigned against, there is this saying: "Power looks a lot less dangerous when you actually have it".
Would you prefer that I call you gullible or gulamet so you can reply "I can't find a poster by that name in the forum"?
Don't be ridiculous -- nobody had the balls to come right out and say that. Sure, it's the cumulative position of more than a few posters here, but none of them would ever summarize their positions with anything like that much honesty.
Yet again and again you keep acting as an apologist for it. Then you go further by claiming that the Democratic party is somehow better than the Republican party when it has not only carried over laws passed by Republicans, but have been behind even more draconian legislation? Really?
