European

It's funny, my friend Confi, that you don't seem to be able to write a coherent text but only try to "counterargue" whatever I am saying. I realise from you comments that any sensible argument is wasted on you. You only scream "proof it", proof that the US is not the salt of the earth and does everything right. You only point the blame at Europe for most things. How childish! "No, it was not us. We are good people, you are from the bad old world." You obviously like to be part of the bully nation ("we have the muscle"). Remember, the bully is feared, rarely respected but never liked. If you want to live with that, fine. Go back to your Clint Eastwood movies.

This is a forum on the presidential election that will hopefully liberate the US and send your "president" back to building his "library", the first for dyslexics? Or will it be full of his war stories from the Texas National Guard? I have nothing else to contribute to the election issue and I have said what I wanted to say about American politics regarding the invasion of Iraq. No point in waisting more typing on people who think that "liberal" is an insult. Take a dictionary to see what this word means in a world where people respect each other.
Hasta la vista, as is the catchphrase of an export Europe gladly made to the US.

It's funny that you have no argument at all, just America is bad. That is my point when I make statements about your belief in an angelic Europe, you are no better. I also note that I have answered everyone of your questions and you just change your supposition based argument a little to avoid mine. Learn to debate, learn to provide at least some proof of your statements and take note that, if I use your same line of thinking, Europe is not something special, it is the root of most of the world's problems. After all you guys spent centuries messing up the world, before there even was an America.

You can continue to insult my country, but as I have allready shown, you are no better.

Europeans always think they're better than the Americans. But I can't say that most Americans, like George W. Bush, are very modest either...

At least Americans are proud of their, relatively young, country.

Confed999

I don't have a problem with that, they should be proud of their country, or they are probably living in the wrong place. The problem I have are these "America is to blame" people, that are going to tell me why through something they heard at the water cooler on break. Believe what you want, but you should be able to back it up with something, even something spiritual is better than nothing.
Show me a modest politician, and I'll show you a person out of work. A politician has to be loud and in your face, or he/she will never be elected.
Quite young, but most countries in the world today are quite young really, hardly any have the same governments they had in the 1700s. The Netherlands was formed in the early 1800s right?

That says very little about the actual age, bud


As for great politicians, they get killed in our wonderful "democracy."

For us either, the Native Ameican culture is quite old.

eMGee

Oh, I didn't know you were a Native American.

Confed999

Native American blood in there somewhere. Great great great aunt, if I remember correctly. Very few races aren't represented in my bloodline. Still it doesn't have anything to do with the age of a civilization on a particular piece of land.
