A Political Statement on where America is going by Lyle

[El Kabong]

Yes people I realize that this is a boxing forum but in this area I am able to post my ideas in regards to other areas of my intrest.

For both political parties in the US I see them becoming more and more polarized.

Republicans - For 6 years we have had the same President and he has really controlled the entire party. Anyone opposed to anything he wants to do suddenly falls out of favor with the party and has to make it up some how.

Democrats - They are starved for victory at every level and have turned against their own. Joe Lieberman a good guy and he's run for VP and he's done lots of good for his party. Ned Lammont is pretty much a communist so the Democratic party is going farther and farther to the left.

Both parties are at the mercy of people who are not bending to help everyone but feed their own needs.

Republicans - George W. Bush, Karl Rove

Democrats - Hilary Clinton and new up and coming Billionaire Megalomaniac George Soros

I think the Democratic party is in danger of becoming the American Socialist Party.




It is my hope that the Independents and the Libertarians gain ground during this time because they are the only ones thinking rationally

i think world politics needs to take a harsh view on parenting and doing it correctly



maybe then

and only maybe


we wont get as many obese whinging kids

[El Kabong]

A harsh view on parenting huh?

The British don't impress me much either to tell you the truth, I mean yall can get rid of Blair whenever you feel like it but the people you vote for don't do it....I wonder why..I mean if everyone hates the direction he's leading you in, why keep him in as PM?



In my opinion you need good old Maggie back!

[Munkymagic]

Its good to have you back Lyle

blair is the best of a bad bunch

[Gandalf]

Blair is Thatcher in drag and Bush is an illiterate Christian muppet....both have achieved very little in their tenures

[El Kabong]

...You know I bought 'V for Vendetta' and what gets me is I know it was written about when Maggie Thatcher was in power but get this, the double barred cross on the flag is the same as the Croix Lorraine or if yall don't know your history the symbol of the resistance in WW2 France...awkward huh resistining La Resistance

Decent movie but I thoroughly dislike Natalie Portman




But surely there is a better liberal leader out there Beds! (now you know why Bush got re-elected, he's the best of a bad bunch)

the best person to run the country is a decent barman

always got the right ideas without the power to enforce them

[Steelie]

The opposite has happened over here Lyle. The left and the right have both scrambled for the centre ground and in the process massively increased voter apathy.

Most people on the street will tell you the same thing about politicians 'it doesn't matter, they're all the same'.

I actually like Tony Blair. I think he's an honest, earnest guy who genuinely wants the best for the country. His cabinet, however, are a shower of shite. He stands by them, as a good 'leader' should but they don't exactly help him do they?

Labour will be in power for the forseeable. You vote incumbent parties out, not new parties in and at the moment there's absolutely no one else to choose from...and they know it.

I think Lyle's time could be better spent nailing hubcaps to his house rather than worrying about the political landscape.

Har-har-har, when you can't think of anything to say you just go back to the fact that you think I'm some sort of back woods rube!

Also STEELIE, you couldn't be farther from the truth about scrambling to the center...any pro war Democrats are getting gunned down like traitors to their socialist overlords! And any anti George W. Republicans have all been defeated and isolated from "the party".

Yes both parties are alike in the way they run their people but they have NOTHING in common with each other when it comes to the issues, taxes, social security, the war, national security, education, etc.

The time is now for a third party!
