[QUOTE=Urkel01;18369199]the point goes woosh, right above your tiny heads don't you remember how bush supporters called those hating or opposing the president unamerican traitors? oh wait, conservatives insist the last 8 years never happened/it was all obama's fault[/QUOTE] I never said any of that. Also: [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3_HJYhEQ0Mk[/media]
[QUOTE=Boba_Fett;18369381]I never said any of that.[/QUOTE] yet your conservative pals do, and you differ from them very little [QUOTE=lmaoboat;18369355]You realize this point depends on whether or not I was calling Bush haters un-American?[/QUOTE] yep, it was aimed directly at you. the post targeted you specifically. there was no way it could've been a post attacking the typical conservative viewpoint which boba_fett appeared to be hypocritical about.

[QUOTE=Boba_Fett;18369449]And all Germans are Nazis.[/QUOTE] wow cool stealth editing your post bro. anyway, this one's even dumber than the previous. do you seriously believe that conservatives don't hate obama and at the same time think bush-haters were unamerican (because lol if you do)
I think this sucks. The Roman Empire got to be the global superpower for, like, thousands of years, and we get, what? 300 tops? What a gyp! China's been around forever, so they already got their turn!
[QUOTE=Urkel01;18369489]no i mean you conform almost exactly to the "smug teenage conservative" position used by many posters on this very forum, not to mention the rest of the country[/QUOTE] Because assumptions are always right.

[QUOTE=Emperor Scorpious II;18369554]How are Bush supporters who hate non supporters any different than Obama supporters who hate non supporters?[/QUOTE] They aren't.

China's been around forever, so they already got their turn![/QUOTE] We haven't been a superpower our entire existance, only after WW II.
There's a reason why Obama is the president and Boba_Fett is not.
[QUOTE=Emperor Scorpious II;18369593]We haven't been a superpower our entire existance, only after WW II.[/QUOTE] No fair. I call a do over.
[QUOTE=thisispain;18369617]There's a reason why Obama is the president and Boba_Fett is not.[/QUOTE] Because Boba_Fett didn't run for election :downs:
Because Boba_Fett's idea of foreign policy is opening his fly and letting his cock fall on dinner plates.
[QUOTE=Flitchaye;18369160]I find it funny how China is being called an economic superpower when virtually 3/4ths of its population can barely get by on a day-to-day basis, live in slums, and has continuous overcrowding, coupled with a horrible gender-to-gender ratio. It is still very much a developing nation, which is sad because it was one of the most technologically, resource-gifted countries several hundred years ago.[/QUOTE] Yeah, to be honest, the problem with China is its overpopulation.
[QUOTE=Emperor Scorpious II;18369554]How are Bush supporters who hate non supporters any different than Obama supporters who hate non supporters?[/QUOTE] [QUOTE=Boba_Fett;18369545]Because assumptions are always right.[/QUOTE] how do you two manage to be so stupid that you can keep posting without drooling all over your keyboards? look, although you'll just completely ignore any post that doesn't agree with your viewpoint (as you always do) i'll try to explain it one more time. emperor scorpious your post is wrong because you assume that conservatives calling dissidents traitors and terrorist supporters during the bush administration is exactly the same as obama supporters wishing, say, all of his opponents dying. Not only has the latter not been documented since the election, but the screams of "Traitor!" "Communist!" and "Terrorist lover!" directed at people of opposing viewpoints from the right have not slowed or even stopped; in fact, they have only risen in volume. I haven't seen any black republicans photoshopped into monkeys or rappers, nor have I seen Rush Limbaugh or Glenn Beck portrayed as a jackbooted Nazi. Both of these have been done to Obama by Obama haters, and to Bush by Bush-haters, yet you don't see the left (or anyone, really) calling Obama-haters Unamerican Terrorist Traitors. Now let's get on to your post, Boba_Fett. Your posts are indistinguishable from the typical Facepunch/4chan "humor" mixed with conservative values seen in many other posters. It's mostly just white noise that parrots any other american conservative. Of course, I typed up all this crap knowing that you'll see that I made a post, maybe even skim the text, but in the end, you'll just rate it "dumb", think you're clever, and completely forget about it, never even thinking that such a post existed ever again. Such as it works for people like you, who can't debate or even hold much articulate opinion other than "here's something I heard on fox obama sucks." [editline]04:02PM[/editline] tl;dr you should probably stop posting.

If they weren't developing, they'd be going backwards, at least when compared to other countries.

He got most of East Asia as well as some of the middle esat [img]http://www.paradoxplace.com/Insights/Civilizations/Mongols/Mongol_Images/Maps/1206-1227-Ghengis-Khan-BR800.jpg[/img] But then his ancestors conquered into Europe and South Asia [img]http://www.paradoxplace.com/Insights/Civilizations/Mongols/Mongol_Images/Maps/1260-1294-Kublai-Khan-BR800.jpg[/img] Lol someone rated me dumb because I implied that the US is still developing.

[QUOTE=thisispain;18369617]There's a reason why Obama is the president and Boba_Fett is not.[/QUOTE] I don't want to be President.
[QUOTE=Cheezy;18363597]Isn't spending less money the exact opposite of what many people accuse him of doing?[/QUOTE] Accuse him? He just spent billions and is going to do it again. It's driving us further in the toilet, and my great grandson probably won't live to see it paid off.

Where would the world be without our favourite source of child labour. The USA will cuddle anyone they think poses a threat and continue raping everyone else who isn't
[QUOTE=Mr don't care;18371366]Where would the world be without our favourite source of child labour. The USA will cuddle anyone they think poses a threat and continue raping everyone else who isn't[/QUOTE] If we're cuddling up to threats is what we do, why are we so much against Iran?
ITT: Political illiterate children go at it.
[QUOTE=Soldier32;18371482]ITT: Political illiterate children go at it.[/QUOTE] That's in every political thread, nothing new.
Uh, question: What exactly is the alternative? Kill them for trying to compete with us? Antagonize them into starting a new cold war we can both pour trillions into our military-industrial complexes to prolong? I'd like to know what exactly the OP suggests we do about the fact that China's economy is rapidly surpassing ours, and they've added a whole middle class overnight while ours is shrinking.

But, I'm positive that overhauling the country in a recession isn't exactly the best idea, especially in the amount of debt we are in now.
[QUOTE]If we're cuddling up to threats is what we do, why are we so much against Iran?[/QUOTE] Iran has never manifested itself as a serious threat to the national security of the United States, or by extension as a security threat to global security The IAE has concluded that there is no evidence that Iran is pursuing a nuclear weapons program. just because it has the intent and capability to defend its sovereign territory in the face of unprovoked military aggression doesn't make it a threat now go fuck your self
I think it's something we should have done a years ago.
[QUOTE=Used Car Salesman;18364790]This. China is THE global superpower now, we best start making friends.[/QUOTE] Largest-standing army, well-trained army, large supply of nuclear weapons: China's got just about everything needed for power. Only problem for them is their power projection. They dominate Asia, but can't project power else that effectively. However, it is true, with all the debt the US owes and all the products the US buys from China, China more or less controls the US itself.
