When you can't make them see the light, make them feel the heat. Posts: 15,630 Group: FEFF Emperor Member #1 Joined: May 16, 2005	Quote: Also, laissez-faire economics doesn't work. Sitting idly by won't solve anything. And I think that's exactly what we'll end up doing if this argument keeps continuing. And America is not the greatest country on the earth. I don't believe any one nation deserves to make such a claim. While in our short history, we have had a huge impact on world history (As I think Soja pointed out), we certainly don't have the highest standards of living, life expectancy, etc. if that's how you'd like to judge it. Yeah, the US is a great place to live, but to say it's the best just sounds like overblown, selfish pride, which a lot of people could use to lose around here. I strongly disagree with you saying laissez-faire economics not working. But I don't really want to get into that, and start arguing over a whole new topic. And you say the US isn't the greatest country on earth. But then you say that no country is the greatest...? If the United State isn't the greatest country on earth, who is? Britan? China? Russia? France? Canada? I see none of those countries overall superior to our own. All countries are not equal. It takes 2 to work together. The Obama isn't any more willing to actually work and compromise with Republicans, than Republicans are willing to work/compromise with him. Therefore saying people need to just stop opposing him or work with him, or whatever, is foolish.

I've failed to come up with something witty, so I hope you will enjoy this filler text instead. Posts: 2,087 Group: Veteran Member #912 Joined: August 26, 2006	All your stupid American arguments don't phase me because they're just that: American. Wait, I mean stupid. No, wait, that's what American is... Alright I got it now guys. Oh, and why are you talking about America now, Nick? We already know the only way to get rich in America is to be born in Paris Hilton's family. Edited by -HJ-, Sep 10 2009, 02:50 AM.

I have that option too. How neat!

Sorry, just noticed a grievous error on behalf of FEFF's #1 political savant.

Needs moar Sety Posts: 1,556 Group: FEFFer Member #869 Joined: August 7, 2006	Soja Sep 8 2009, 08:12 PM I lol'd. Hard. Anyway, I didn't really want to watch this speech because I felt it had nothing to do with me (imo this was directed at troubled students rather than honor students). Also, even if Obama was doing this solely for the youth vote (as if he didn't have that anyway), who cares? A good message is a good message, even if Bin Laden says it.
