Republican Rep Michelle Bachmann's "Anti-American" comments will cost her her seat
post Civil war, we should have remained 2 Americas i guess.. that way, everyone would have been better off(except minorities of the federation) and we probably wouldnt be in any of this mess... i mean just think about these comments. people who make them would be better off living without association with those they attack, and the ones being attacked would live a happier life not hearing these stuff ...
even if it would go on this very same way that its happening now, it would go on between 2 independent geopolitical entities, so it would be fair game... this is just sad to see Americans saying these things about Americans.
We probably would have never gotten involved in WW II as a whole country and part of us would be excluded from blame of being imperialist or using nukes on civilians. maybe the more pacifist part would be the one possessing nukes, who knows
it's just funny thinking how the world would have been if we had the federation and the union as 2 countries in 2008, order of power would be much much different!
the only sure-bad thing would perhaps be prolonging of slavery in such a case
i aint sayin this to promote division at all, rather ridiculing such divisive comments, its just sad to hear these things and see that such beliefs actually exist at different levels of the society in this day and time
I have an analogy for this election: America's got a long lasted nasty pimple and this election is the tight pinch, poppin it with the burning alcohol on top; bringing out both the nasty germs and the blood, but i hope the exposure to the reality that this election has brought will have a long lasting effect in minds and eyes of the people... sadly i think masses got a messed up memory and will forget very important points as soon as the storm is passed, until the next time that is.
if we had the technology and security of 1950s or 60s, i betcha obama would have been assassinated a hundred times by now!!! so much hate for him under different excuses by different type of people. and i totally wonder what if one extremist within the secret service or the trusted circle could just pull the trigger on the fella one day... when i get here in the scenario, i stop thinking, cuz it gets really scary and quite unpredictable on what may happen next...
