It is my hope that all this will settle and people will realize what is good for the average Joe or Jane and the average community is good for the country.
All this has 'settled.'
Was it an issue during 2012 elections? Does it matter rolling into the 2014 elections? This issue was once a front burner issue, the unfairness of CEO pay and benefits and bonuses all voiced far and wide by media and the progressively minded. This issue now in the waste bin of political necessity but not deleted, ready to be pulled back out on any political whim. In that same recycle bin from where they can be restored are issues such as earmarks.....Wall Street Occupier issues while the stock market sets records.....debt extensions that were once "unpatriotic and unamerican".....budget deficits.....nation building policies in foreign countries.....the facility at Gitmo.....the 60,000 troops still in Afghanistan.....drone policies......these issues have been 'settled' for a great number of we observers simply by the election of Barack Obama.
I was giving more than just an example of one to make my point but...thanks anyway for the response.
For the love of God.
And you wonder why so few reply in your threads?
Just as a recommendation, one member to another (as I think it will make things better for everyone), you may want to reply with a bit less aggression or negativity if you wish for interaction.
Please do not take this as an attack again, just a suggestion.
Nevermind

I don't wonder this at all, there happen to be very few members even posting on these threads......at all. Does that make YOU wonder......tecoyah?
Recommendation? Members or administrators who troll I don't take advice from, sorry.
Trolling isn't attacking, although it doesn't address content either.:smug:
hmmm...that's a lot to chew. I didn't vote thinking about Gitmo at all. I wanted to make the choice based on the economy and who could get us through the hard times. The ideologies as you indicate are a front :redface:
Consumers can affect their quality of life if they will engage. Or disengage as the case may be.
In short we can own this country.
__And we don't have to buy their sh*t. __
Also next time we get into the war mood, we should see who's gonna pay for it. Ask for an itemized bill and oversee the contracts. We can do that by writing, posting, voting... If we need to marching or just visiting DC and giving the congress our views.
The 'idealogies' that you call a front were a front in 2008 as well....but Obama launched into the Presidency promising to among other things, close the prison at Gitmo because it "violated our values." Of course you didn't vote with Gitmo in mind in 2012, Salty.....it was a "front" issue to begin with, those so upset in 2008 were in fact politically driven and disingenuous.

We do own this country.
No you don't need to buy their sh*t. I'll always remember all the Occupiers on Wall Street referencing their iPhones to read and listen in on details of the death of Steve Jobs. They all applauded this capitalist...using the internet...some broadband AT&T....some apple product....all to oppose big corporation mentalities.
They're a big corporation.....Occupiers....becase many of you bought their sh*t. What lost little sheep.
Oh and btw Salty.....who pays when the war isn't fought? When a Hitler or other menace to society and peace is afforded leeway and patience, who pays when they've become nearly too large to stop? We came out of WW2 with a bigger enemy than we went in against and then proceeded on a multi-decade cold war costing trillions. And almost much more. Sometimes war is necessary.
Keep your head in the sand, easier to keep you down if you're actually willing to buy the propaganda.
