ORIGINAL: ROCKHARD i been listening and reading alot of these political speeches coming from obama,, and he is truly a far left marxist,,,, i am tired of being told by him that we got to change our way of life,,, he talks about our SUV'S,, HE TALKS ABOUT US EATING WHATEVER AND WHENEVER WE WANT, he says we have the luxury of keeping our thermostat on 72 year round,,,, constantly bashing the upper class,,, hell he dont mention he is also a millionare,, but he plays the deprived hardship role... tax,tax,tax,,all that comes out his mouth,,this man is the most unamerican politician of all time,,,cant believe people want him in office,,, of course we have become a nation of give me my freebies society,, very few want to earn their own way,,, this economy belly flopped cause of govt intervention and govt spending,, not the rich, not big corp., not nothing but govt control and policies,,, we need to get this nation back to its founding form,,, stop govt giveaways ,,make people go out and do for themselves,,, small govt,less regulation,less tax dollars on social and pork agendas,,, govt loves the way this economy is cause it is easier to push their marxist agenda,, I'm not sure exactly what speeches you are referring too, but in the end, you mention yourself that this country needs to get back to what it was. Someone recently wrote a Letter to the Editor in the Erie Times, and it was to the tune of how people these days are total spoiled brats. It aluded to instead of taking the high cost of fuel situation on ourselves and looking to ourselves to lessen our use, people would rather keep driving their oversized ghettoed out SUV's at 85mph down I-79 and then whine about how much it costs to fill them up. It mentioned how disgusting it is to see people waiting for the government to do something about it. I have to agree with that. I appreciate those of you being patriots and insisting that the United States is still the greatest country in the world, but I have to disagree. I have to say we have become the laughing stock of the world. It should have been a warning sign to everyone when other well known countries refused to back us up in Iraq, that it was the wrong move. Our cities, big and small, are being over run with crime. We still have people living in near 3rd world conditions after Hurricane Katrina. Our industry has moved over seas. Home forclosures are out of this world. We need to stop our arrogance and look at other countries and how they are living and thriving. There's alot to learn from others, but our country insists on the "ho ha we're number 1" attitude. Countries like Norway are thriving because of their government investing in their people, and have dealt with oil prices by making it the so called "greenest country in the world". As far as I'm concerned, theres not alot to be proud of these days. I'll be getting married in a few months, and the thought of bringing a child in to this world is pretty damn scary.
