You must make the distinction clear that he did it truly for the sake of the country and not for personal reasons. He acted in defense of the Constitution and the country. The SCOTUS did have a ruling say in it. But his actions paved the way for what truly did need to happen.

I guess that's where things get lost. He acted as a president and not in self interest, whereas today it seems our leaders act only in self interest and nothing else.
 
Who woke up? Of the top of my head, the 1st World War Vets crash the gates at their memorial and the bikers that tore down the gates and piled them up in front of the White House. Or the number of visitors to the Grand Canyon and Mount Rushmore who crashed the gates and pushed aside the Rangers and went into the parks anyway. My neighbor who cried about the government shutdown only to realize a week later that his life did not change in anyway what so ever.

Sounds like a real revolution there. Maybe you should talk to people who were affected by the shutdown.

Uh, coming off as hypocritical was the point...I really do wonder if you have any comprehension skills are just fail to maintain a consistent line of thinking from one post to another. It was intended to, remember at the opening of my post, I wrote..."I'm going to respond with the same level of courtesy and maturity I believe you answered me with." It was a comparison of how you come off...out of no where with your disconnected stream of liberal thought.

I wasn't referring to that statement in itself chunky, I was referring to your entire thought process on every discussion. Every word you type is drenched in partisan BS. Most of us try to stay on topic about the subject but you continuously have to attack liberals and progressives. I wonder if you can comprehend anything besides liberals and progressives are bad.

Just like I said, you liberals and progressives LOVE arguing semantics and hypothetically, nothing factual or concrete. Good job driving home my point.

Liberals and progressives "something something bad", thank you for proving my point. Its literally impossible to have a good discussion with you continually spouting this anti-liberal partisan rhetoric.


 
The great thing about our country is that regardless of left/right/liberal/conservative, we are always progressing forward. We don't do it too fast, we don't do it too slow. We've consistently done it right.

On the right, we're not against moving forward towards the end goal, but it has to be well thought out and implemented. There may not be a desirable solution at that time either meaning waiting on it might be the better course of action.
On the left side, they appear to want to move quickly towards that end goal without seemingly considering the impact, or results. As mentioned, judge a bill not by its intent but by the result.

We are moving forward, the last 250 years proves this. The left appears to be drenched in the mindset of instant gratification; must have it now. This is clear to me by the loss of some morals, integrity, compassion, and consideration - the happiness of people in general. The right doesn't move forward fast enough for the left, the left moves too fast for the right.

No Republican or Right leaning person is against universal healthcare. If you presented an option that was feasible financially without putting a major burden on the American people, I bet it would go through.

Case in point: Canada. They don't pay premiums, they just pay taxes. Their taxes are higher, but they don't have to worry about premiums or meeting deductibles either. Whereas in the US, we're going to have higher premiums, higher deductibles, on top of a recent tax increase in January. I'm betting Canada's system is actually cheaper for the individual with free healthcare than the individual in the US with a deductible based healthcare.
 
FFS, nevermind. Canada has lower taxes and free healthcare than in the US at this time. Too funny. Bush tax cuts put us on par with Canada's tax rate though.

So Canada has lower taxes and completely free healthcare. Way to screw it up Congress.
 
We should ditch the funding agreement to buy the F-22 from the US and go for the Eurofighter ... Mmmm ... leather seats and a better stereo ... plus the chicks think they look better.

Or we could get 20 of the Rusky planes (for half the price) that are probably faster, more maneuverable and have better long range missiles ... even if a few of them fall out of the sky ... for no reason. Plus ... the Rusky planes still have ashtrays and cigarrette lighters ... and 4 free nukes if you buy 20 ... retro !!

 


Just saying... the US would probably just fire ICBMs at dinosaurs rather than build robots to fight them. Never understood why F-22s get murdered in every movie to show off how awesome tech is... I guess it tells the rest of the world to not want F-22s.

If was had it my way, Australia would still probably use the CAC Boomerang. :3
 
ICBMs are expensive to fire and are a one shot deal. They take a while to replace and reload because the blast doors don't open, instead they're blown off. But yeah, the F-22s are always getting destroyed getting up close to shoot.. Pacific Rim, Iron Man 3, Die Hard, all come to mind.

Even then, the F22 holds a hell of a lot of firepower. Show me an A10 Warthog straffing and getting destroyed and I'm a believer.. not something that can engage targets from over 26 miles away.
 
No no no you drop the MOAB on them. That solves it.

The US and Britain tested far more bombs in the pacific ocean than anyone actually knows. The ocean is large enough to dissipate all the nuclear fallout..or up in space. That's always a nice place right??
 

I felt nostaligc this past weekend and re-watched some Mazinger; Tranzor Z here in the States.

I wish I had a rocket punch...

Oh, and huge fan of the Gundam Wing: Endless Waltz series...just awesome!
