What does this have to do with the topic, other than your posts that express hatred of women and liberals?

As for the next post, you believe that your mother, wife, female siblings and your female children are the problems that plague the world?
Very peculiar.

Could be a Huckabee supporter. Huckabee believes that "a wife is to submit herself graciously to the servant leadership of her husband".

At least thats one good thing I can say for us right now. People on all sides of the aisle do care like never before- especially younger people. They care like crazy- just look at Organizing for America in 2008, and the Tea Parties today.
Care like never before? Americans do, yes, maybe Australians or British people do too, since they mimic some of the USs' motives/ideals/moves...
But many countries hate the USA and quite a few would love to see it fall
Younger people? thats sorta funny, considering people in my high school are asking questions like "why'd we have to be born in such a crappy time" and many are hooked on drugs

Liberty, equality, and ideals? What ideals can we have that the Romans could not have had?? Parallels between Rome, once a nation that was the strongest in the world, to the USA, a nation which has been the strongest........ ignorant?

So we're just falling faster than all the others? Getting hit harder?

Great Depression... guess which two countries were hit hardest?
Germany, and Australia.

Wanna know what Germany did after the world's economy almost collapsed? Conquered most of Europe and other parts of the world...

You say American can't last as a Republic or Democracy... so when will we, as American citizens (if you're not an American citizen, please dont let me know) elect someone to lead us WITHOUT representation of all states?

Because if the leader doesn't have to fear for his job, then he'll do whats best for the country, rather than what will get him rich and re-elected as the politicians do today.

You people like to throw that hate word around a lot ,huh ? With your false accusations and lies pitched in too . I don't hate any of you, I just don't like you ,but wouldn't hurt you or wish pain on you . Keep your agendas out of our schools and public places and we don't care what you do . my kids are all middle aged almost seniors so they didn't get infected by all the crap, but my grandkids did .

Only a couple of them are libs so no not all my familiy . Besides they didn't make the laws that changed everything ,that was doen by man haters long ago .
