3. That is correct, there is a complete lack
of leadership in this country at the moment. It is as if we do not have a president.

5. I wish I could recommend this thread 50 times, because that's exactly how I feel.
We have NO LEADERSHIP.

We have NO REPRESENTATION.

We are being TAXED WITH NO REPRESENTATION. We wanted IMPEACHMENT, they took it off the table!

Congress' lack of oversight and enforcement of the laws of the land have given us this.

19. When pirates attempt to take over your ship your options are...
Edited on Thu Oct-09-08 04:39 PM by Mr_Jefferson_24
...two: resist or surrender your vessel -- in November of 2000 we surrendered. Eight years later we're beginning to suffer the consequences of that decision and still, our options are essentially the same: resist or continue yielding and/or working within the illusion of representative democracy.

To resist, or not to resist -- that is the question. Could the answer be any more obvious? Are we so far gone down the path of delusional thinking that we actually believe we're going to displace a well entrenched bunch of murderous fascist thugs at the polls? We're going to vote them out?

There is no historical precedent for such a pipe dream and the U.S. will be no exception.

20. Great metaphor! I've been saying "gangsters" for 25 years, but "pirates" is better.
Edited on Thu Oct-09-08 06:24 PM by petgoat
Gangsters you can avoid if you try. Pirates, there's no escaping.

22. Right, everyone's blaming all these different people and things but
It really all begins with Bush and the Iraq war. I could overlook him stealing the first election cause most of these idiots just fade away, but then he had to go get us into this war and one of the following happened to most of the country:

- either you are so full of yourself and so jaded and stupid that you denied the Iraq war was bad and let Bush get away with everything he wanted with no recourse

- you got real pissed off and lost all faith in the leaders of your country and they betrayed you and he jacked up oil prices and stuff. This is like 75% of the country by the way.

Really, this is what happens when a nation loses all respect and hope for their leaders and the leaders just keep pushing and deregulating and killing because they can.
