After reading this thread, I'm feeling pretty good. I thought I was the only one who was easily baited....

What a ridiculous phrase. As if God - if there were such a thing, which there isn't - would recognize borders and nation states and differentiate between them. Do you ever hear anyone saying "God Bless Equatorial Guinea", or "God Bless The Federated States of Micronesia"?

Thanks for your input. I'll be sure to return the favor tomorrow by pissing in your corn flakes.

Things I like about America:

Guns
Apollo 11
Amber waves of grain
Cars
Apple Computer
James Madison
Ronald Wilson Reagan
Fender Stratocasters

But god doesn't like the rest of the world. We are the chosen ones.

The chosen one eh..

It was said that you would destroy the Sith, not join them. You were to bring balance to the force, not leave it in darkness :evil:

Firstly, I don't eat cornflakes.

Secondly, Ronald Reagan was responsible for the deaths of hundreds of thousands of Latin Americans, along with the rape of thousands of women - including the raping of nuns.
He also lied to the American public and pissed on the constitution, setting the standard for further top level abuses of power in the future - Papa Bush, and Bush junior, for example.

I don't see how anyone can say that he was good for America.


Still, each to their own, right?

'...In the 1980s, U.S.-backed forces committed widespread massacres, political murders and torture. Tens of thousands of civilians died. Many of the dead were children. Soldiers routinely raped women before executing them.
There can be no doubt, too, that President Reagan was an avid supporter of the implicated military forces, that he supplied them with weapons and that he actively sought to discredit human rights investigators and journalists who exposed the crimes...'

'...Reagan's economic policies were a disaster for working-class Americans. Reagan presided over the worst recession since the 1930s, and economic growth in the 1980s was lower than in the 1970s, despite the stimulus of military Keynesian policies, which created massive federal budget deficits and tripled the federal debt. By the end of the decade, real wages were down and the poverty rate had increased by 20 percent.

Reagan was also a liar. In November 1986, he publicly denied that his administration had been illegally selling arms to Iran and using the proceeds to fund the contras. One week later he was forced to retract this statement, but denied that the sale was part of a deal to free U.S. hostages. The following year, Reagan admitted that there had been an arms-for-hostages deal, but denied he knew anything about it.

In 1992, that too proved to be a lie when former Defense Secretary Caspar Weinberger was compelled to release notes from a January 1986 meeting revealing, "President decided to go with Israeli-Iranian offer to release our 5 hostages in return for sale of 4,000 TOWs [U.S. missiles] to Iran by Israel."

The man whose administration spearheaded class warfare on behalf of the rich, dragged American politics to the right, and rebuilt US imperialism after the Vietnam debacle, is dead. Good riddance.'
