"Yes, we can?" No, it turns out that we can't.
I'm probably the last DUer who would be willing to criticize President Obama, but there you have it.
I weep for my country. My beloved America has devolved even further into the politics of greed than I had thought possible during the Dark Days of the you-know-who regime.
Mr Obama, you were our hope. We thought you to be the last bastion of courage, and you turned out to not be so.
Goodbye, my dream of America.
Perhaps the bird-smacking stoned red-faced primitive's "dream of America" sounded too much like a nightmare for most other people.

1. Yes we could have if we'd really wanted to
By "we" I mean those with the official power to do anything.
I won't mention any names, I'll just look at 1600 Penn Ave and whistle.

4. Talk to me, and name names, please. I think I know who you're referring to, but I can't keep up completely. There are, yes, some courageous holdouts in the congress / senate, including my fellow Vermonter Bernie.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, there he goes again, Chief S itting Bull.
The bird-smacking stoned red-faced primitive is originally from New Hampshire, not Vermont.
This is like the Nebraskan franksolich calling Tanker "my fellow Missourian."

8. Glad to hear even the strongest stalwart has realized it is hopeless
Now the question is what to do about it.

12. What to do about it? All I can think of is to vote. That I did, and it seemed to accomplish nothing.
Do you have any words of encouragement? Those would be welcome, indeed.

11. America never dies. It just evolves. Things will change. Ebb and flow and all that.
That is why you'll be back here again and again and again mourning the death of America. A country and culture is a big thing. It doesn't just go away that easily. No matter what Keith may say.

Its obvious to me that Redstone, and all of these primitive Obama deniers are a bunch of loud mouth racists who think the black man cant bring them the change he promised.. Racists, the lot of them. :popcorn:

HA! The bird-smacking stoned red-faced primitive is really upset with the lord zero, huh?
I think it's funny. :lmao:

The funny part is, every one of them will pull the lever for lord 0 in 2012 once again.

A statement confirming what we knew at the time; "change" was what they wanted it to be, and what they wanted was for everyone else to change and for them to keep doing what they had always been doing. As we can all see, the extent of their effort was "All I can think of is to vote," which "accomplish nothing." It's like hoping to change the color of your house, but all you do is pick out the color you want. The actual work of painting the house, you pay others to do that. The primitives looked at D.C. that way; they picked out the color and it was up to them to paint. But as is typical of primitives, they exerted no effort at all. They didn't even mail it in.

Red on the head's idea of what America should be looks more like Cuba or Venezuela than what our Founders intended. Frikkin' communist!
Sure wish he and others like him would just move to one of those supposed utopias he dreams about! Hell, I'd put up the coin for his ticket! One way, of course!

I'd even go half on his one way ticket with ya Rus. He'd be begging to come back for sure.

Redstone may be suffering from some sort of brain infection. Keep in mind that he has been on a strained food diet for a while now. His mouth has been wired shut. All the shit he usually speaks has been stuck inside, poisoning his system.

He's upset that his vote was a FAIL.
