I couldn't help but laugh as I watched Hillary on T.V. telling us this country never stopped being great and seeing all her sycophantic supporters cheer her with poop-eating grins on their faces. So since there's a thread that's asking Trump supporters(of whom I am not one of) when the country stopped being great, I thought I'd reverse the question to all you Hillary supporters/Democrats/liberals. You guys are the party of: We are racist We are sexist We are homophobic We are islamophobic We are bigoted Our rich suck. Our white people suck. Our system that favors both the rich and white suck. Capitalism sucks. Our military sucks for waging wars for oil. Our police suck for shooting unarmed black men just because they are black. Republicans and Conservatives suck. our Death Penalty sucks. Our minimum wage sucks. Our 2nd amendment sucks. Until a short while ago we sucked for not having Gay Marriage. Fat people suck and the non-organic food that made them that way sucks and the crappy Walmart store that sold it to them sucks. And of course We ALL suck ESPECIALLY hard for causing Global Warming. So you tell me. Exactly when did America start being great? I'm honestly quite curious what your answers are going to be.
Oh, and i'll go ahead an answer the question for myself on the subject, since that's the least I can do. I personally believe America is a great country from the moment of its birth because the foundation, while flawed and paid for in blood, was nevertheless a great foundation written by Great people. I don't think I really need to say I'm talking about the Constitution. It's the backbone of this country and it;s stood the test of time. So long as we have that, this country will always be great, no matter how big or small it is or how many or how few people live under it. JMO
well I am not a Hillary supporter, but she basically already answered this... "we need to make it whole again"... thats basically their way of not denying things need to improve without saying its not great... its all just a play on words and hyperbole from both sides... politics is just about painting positives from negatives... its the psychology behind it... basically suggesting his slogan is negative, and her slogan is positive... she's attempting to trump Trump... I don't support him either BTW...
Minus just about everything you just mentioned, "America is great". What does "America the great" have to do with some of the people "in America", that are "not so great"?
Right, your party has no beef with anything other than segments of its people. Doesn't have any problems with capitalism. Doesn't have any problems with the 2nd amendment. Doesn't have any problems with the Death Penalty. Doesn't have any problems with the entire system that inherently helps whites and hurts everyone else? Interesting story. Glad it's shortly worded.
Lol! Nice try, but that isn't going to fly. You obviously aren't that good at comprehension. Lets try again. I said "America is great". And I also said that had nothing to do with "some people" in America "are not so great". The "not so great" are the ones who corrupt Capitalism, the second Amendment, death penalty, gay marriage, PP, and so on. In other words, corruption by the "some who are not so great" doesn't cancel out America being great. It makes the "some who are not so great" as "still not being so great".
You can pass the hate from America to just the people who made it that way, but you and I both know that's insulting to our respective intellects. "I hate America" are words that have been, are used, and will continue to be uttered by Leftists. When Obama went on his apology tour, he apologized for AMERICA, not "the small minority of Americans who did all those bad things". When was the last time any one of them ever said "I hate the people who made America this way?" ummm....never. The thought of one of you actually issuing a disclaimer about your problems with this country in such a way is downright laughable. But by all means keep playing your game. I'll even play it with you. So, why do you think America is so great and what would it have to do/be like for you to believe otherwise that couldn't be attributed to the people who made it that way? I'im dying to know.
America started to be great when slavery ended. America continued to be great up until the Korean War when America got involved in other countries' affairs. Then, America declined. I am a proud Hillary supporter.
So you would characterize slavery as an institution disqualifying America as being great, but not women's suffrage, segregation, conquering of the West or carpet bombing cities culminating in 2 nukes on civilian targets? Yet "getting involved in other countries affairs" is what started the decline. You have an interesting perception and i'll leave it at that. In any case, thanks for the honesty. It's more than I'm getting from bwk. Edit to add: I'd like to ask: how do you perceive her words about "America has never stopped being great'? Seems from your words you're disagreeing with her.
Thanks for the straw men...but that's bull(*)(*)(*)(*). If you hate this country...move the (*)(*)(*)(*) out. We won't miss you...but stop lying about what "leftists say"...pretending that what some lunatic said some time or other is how "leftists as a group think...
I do not think this country can ever be whole as long as politics is a game of divide and conquer. Of pitting one group against another group in search for votes.
I was merely making the point that liberals will denounce America by saying "America", not "the people who made America this way". A.K.A. they get to the point and not try to hide behind the fact it is America they are criticizing not just segments of its people. Sorry if that came across to you as painting you all as America haters.
Name one thing you are proud of that Hillary has accomplished Alucard. If you cant think of a single thing then dont respond and we will all laugh at the fact that you cant.
First off, I haven't a clue who are the Leftists you are talking about. Secondly, no one is insulting one's intellect here, unless "you" choose to insult your own. And if someone were to ever utter those words, who happened to lean Left was a shout out in direct defiance of the very examples I gave. Meaning, you haven't a clue what "I hate America" even means. It means "I love America" except for the ********s who are trying to corrupt America. You know, the one's I just mentioned? Okay, seeing that you do not get a free pass to your own quotes here without proof, prove Obama actually said himself he apologized for America. It's going to be even more laughable when I find out you couldn't prove Obama actually said "he apologized for America".
