America's conservative backlash.

To be honest, I would be happy if a Republicant gets back in office. All the nut cases who've been hoarding bullets for the past 6 years will finally fucking stop and prices and inventory will get back to normal. Beyond that, my only concern is for the working class who will see an even greater disparity between them and the upper class.

Funny, the rich have got even richer under the Obama administration, in fact 40% more than under GW.
Bet you didn't know that, did ya?

He inherited a mostly capitalist system. What the fuck is it he hoped to change?
i hoped he would go slightly harder in the progressive direction than he has, but he has also faced unexpectedly strong backlash (even if he proposes a republican idea).

my biggest disappointment in obama was actually the website rollout. he had that all in his hands and fudged it BAD. the backbone of his idealism and hope and change was for smart government, not small or big government. and he fucked that one up big time and it was all his fault.

doesn't matter how quick he fixes it either, he fucked the goat there.

The only party that is to the left of center is the Green Party but their candidate was arrested enroute to her debate. There are a few greens holding mayoral and state lower house offices in the US though. The democrats are to your left but you're a radical right-wing teabagger.

If the. Dr. Is a teabagger, then that makes you the teabagEE. Hows things look down there?

I have friends that identify themselves as republicans, does not bother me cause they are not dug in.....
most republicans and conservatives are willing to listen to a new idea, and if it makes good sense, and sounds like it could work, they may even support it.

lefties and democrats however, invariably bite down on their agenda, lock their jaws and hang on until the agenda itself crumbles under it's own idiocy.

thats why they are successful and getting so many new programs and schemes started, but those schems always wind up failing, kept alive only through bureaucratic entrenchment.

So true, and poor African Americans are the ones really suffering do to his policies. The unemployment
rates amongst them is incredibly high under this administration.

you do realize that history started before january 2009 and has been documented so that we can all see what a demonstrably stupid statement you just made, right?

i mean, you are aware of the existence of history books and the like, right?

Fuck, tell me about it. .22 ammo is like gold around here. people selling 325 round boxes for $50. Fucking ridiculous.

Don't forget WW3, probably have that with the Republicans too.

Correct, History started on September 11, 2001. Way before 2009.

I disagree, but anyone can be stubborn really. I can have friends that are conservative.....but mean and stubborn too....no thanks. Conservatives don't give an inch and they are proud of it.

SOME republican and SOME conservative are doctrinaires, while even a casual conversation with a liberla a leftist or a democrat invariably winds up in a pissing match once they realize you are not one of them.

example: bucky.
even a discussion of horticulture devolves into partisan mud slinging and racial epithets.

example: AC.
he has chosen his slogan and repeats them endlessly, even when they are demonstrably false.

read the "monsanto cannabis thread again. the anti-gmo crowd keeps repeating their slogans and jingoisms even after they are proved to be pure horseshit.

When does this impartial person come out? I don't see any listening to ideas. You are generalizing and if a good idea came up here I doubt you would entertain it. All these examples of liberal behavior you acted out to me last week. That is horseshit, why is it any different?
