It was after all the Bush white house who banned Christmas and many other supposed anti-Christian things you blame Obama for.

Bush and Enron were big friends of the Taliban when they came to Texas to meet with Bush and Enron officials.
Ah using conspiracy theories to fight conspiracy theories. Here's mine for you and read this closely, think about it and read it again.

The REAL conspiracy theory is that there are NO conspiracy theories.

Hilarious that it was Republicans who supplied Muslim extremists with weapons in Syria and elsewhere.

Dear old Ronald Reagan was a huge fan of the Taliban and equipped them with a lot of weapons.

You do know right that Crimea has the vast majority of Muslim communities and Muslims in the Ukraine. This is the part that Russia is they claim they have the right to.

The UN and the majority of countries btw has refused to accept that Russia has any claim to Crimea.

Besides the Orthodox Christians aren't considered Christians by Americans anyway.

No, Obama is in some alternate reality; completely disconnected from present reality

So what are your opinions on Ukraine? How about Syria?

Let them fight amongst themselves. We have no business getting involved in foreign disputes, especially when the EU and NATO is sitting on their hands.

What does my opinion about us getting involved in foreign wars have to do with weltschmerz injecting her opinion about US political affairs?

My point is why is it ok for us to discuss foreign matters when it is not ok for Weltschmerz to discuss it? I have learned that many people outside the U.S. know MORE of what is going on inside the U.S. than people who live here. And freedom of speech works for ALL-inside the U.S. as well as outside.

See, that's the leap you made. We are discussing OUR involvement in foreign matters. These are matters that affect US citizens.

She (weltschmerz) is injecting her opinion, quite rudely much of the time, in politics that do not affect her. She isn't simply throwing out an educated opinion, she is bashing much of the time. I think foreign opinion is great, but not when it turns confrontational for the sake of instigating further divide.

If I was in the Canada forums and started injecting my opinion about their politics, and bashing one side or the other constantly, you'd have a point.

The last time I checked, this was a free board where ANYONE can express their opinion.
