    It's almost as if people in Ireland don't care about your personal situation, or your assessment of what's happening to the American middle classes.

    I suppose that some downtrodden groups are just invisible to us privileged Westerners. If only there were some way to raise awareness of this forgotten group, the American middle class.

    I hope you're not white too OP, they have it even worse!

    I was in America once. They have concrete roads and Americans and they drive on the wrong side of the road all the time. All they eat is burgers. Crazy place.

    Not sure but I think you might of been in Canada, nothing to see here.

    I'm having a large time with you new friends, but would it be possible for any conversation on the term Investment used for taxing me and spending more money that the middle class has left (what little of it is)? I don't really see this as an investment on my part....actually, they are steeling my money and putting it towards something I don't give a rats ash for!


    I'll let you call me all the names you wish if you find out how I can keep my own money I work hard for! :)

    Well, you could tax the rich?

    BTW, the government I'm sure that the government of nearly 300mil people is very interested in doing exactly what you personally want. Get over yourself. You're little strop isn't important in the bigger picture. Why don't you go buy an assault rifle for "hunting" and go live in the mountains with your friends.

    The problem is everything Obama says doesn't translate too well into white speak, especially typed white speak. It just doesn't mean the same without the suave and swagger.

    "INVESTMENT"!

    He doesn't realize that if you keep doing the same thing over and over the results will not change. This time around he is calling the stimulus an investment. What does it mean? More taxes, more spending in flipping green energy :mad:

    So we go without food/jobs so he can put up another worthless pretty windmill when we have tones of coal in the W. Virginia mountains, more oil than we can ever need under our very own soil in the western states. He has put so many restrictions on the coal/oil industry they cannot operate, hence more jobs lost and gone to Mexico, South America and China. Nobody is lining up for the plastic electric caskets on wheels they call electric cars! Heck, even the illegal Mexicans are going back home!

    He will be on TV here in the states, (it's 1:30p est now) and we have already had a preview today of what he will push forward and the new terms he is giving old bad ideas to his new term.


    Lot of anger in that post.

    Yes mamm, and there is a lot of truth in that post. The problem is, if you aren't living it then you can't experience it. A lot of comments here in this thread are obviously from ppl that don't see it from my front porch. The few American post are from ppl that are from states that are all for the government running things (and I don't have an earthly idea why). That is not what made this country what it USE to be, great. If we wanted a king, then the revolution would have never happened (remember American history, the first tea party?) Americans left the EU because they wanted to make decisions for themselves, to vote! Let me say it again, we do NOT want a king and this here fellow is doing his damnest to be one!

    Let me ask any of you something, how the heck can a WHOLE COUNTY in a state ALL vote for the same person? This election was fixed. Now on the flip side, I'm 100% Christian and believe in Jesus Christ as my savior. God knew it would be fixed, the Lord puts people in and he takes them out. (Remember Saul in the Bible). Am I hanging on to my "God and Guns", dang straight! You can't ever take my God from me, and you can take my guns, bullets first!

    (Note: This was not directed at Bloody*Mary, or any one person for that matter ~ AND, I'm having a blast with some of you! ;)

    I'm hoping the Chucken and the Moo comes back, farm animals talk'in, cute!)

    While I'm at it, there have been several post eluding to racist remarks and this will be my only one I'm making a comment too and it will be for any racist remarks in this thread.

    I don't give a dang what flavor you are, as long as it ain't bitter! Mean people are bad, nice people are good.

    done!

    This article discusses your claims of voter fraud and shows them to be rather groundless.. Sensationalist nonsense that has no need for facts, the reason most news outlets ignored it as an actual news story. Evidence didn't back it up.
    http://www.slate.com/articles/news_and_politics/politics/2012/11/philadelphia_voter_fraud_is_it_possible_that_barack_obama_won_100_percent.html

    Obama won the election and you should really avoid infowars for your news needs. Do you also believe he's kenyan? :rolleyes: You still haven't responded in regards to global warming....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 453 ✭✭CollardGreens


    Sorry sugar booger, forgot about the faux global warming thingie!

    I got your global warming right here! ;)



    I don't do inforwars.

    I don't know where he is from nor do you!

    Enough or do you "need" more?

    You're on an Irish board. in the general chit chat section, no less. We're not living it, we're not experiencing it and we don't give a toss. Take it to the US politics forum or indeed, a US politics board. No one here is engaging with your ye-haw, union rebel, gods n guns, excruciatingly awful Obama nicknames schtick. I don't know where you get this perception that boards posters are engaging with you on your chosen topic. When you say truly ridiculous things like "Americans left the EU because they wanted ... to vote", no one is ever going to take you seriously.

    :rolleyes: Like duhhh Linqua, were on page FIVE!

    you silly willy, what is a "Linqua" anyway, something caught in your throat?

    ;)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,800 ✭✭✭Lingua Franca


    Point proven. ;)

    Point proven. wink.png

    Well yeah, I'm scratching my head wondering if you realize you just proved me correct? Lord help us all.

    So what is a Linqua? Is that the noise that a head makes in Ireland when it's dropped on a rock or was I right the first time with the caught in the throat thing?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,940 ✭✭✭Corkfeen


    You don't believe in global warming which has been scientifically proven to exist(world temperatures are rising each year, sea levels are rising and oceans are warming, extreme weather events are becoming more common...). You also apparently think that it's fine for the presidents nationality to be called into question. We've all seen his birth cert so there's not really a question about it except for the idiotic birther movement which just happens to be led by a racist sheriff..

    Aren't you gonna backup these claims of rigged elections with legitimate sources? You argue via ignorance and populist conspiracy ****e. There's plenty wrong with Obama but you're simply arguing from a nonsensical standpoint of him being a hitler like figure. He's not particularly different from any other US president in the last 50 years.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,207 ✭✭✭The King of Moo


    I'm not racist but...

    Should the mods and admins really be allowing foreign trolls onto our Irish bandwidth? There are plenty of perfectly good Irish trolls out there who can cause exasperation and crave attention as much as the next troll, but they can't get their platform because they're being crowded out by foreign trolls who are more willing to put in very long hours to annoy people.

    Call me racist if you want, but I believe in Irish posts for Irish trolls.

    If you are suggesting my comment is in somehow eluding to racism then you have completely missed my point and I would kindly ask you to retract your comment please.

    Huzzah, the south rises again!

    Just not very far and it kind of slumps down again shortly after, confused and disorientated, having achieved nothing.
