| theprof00 said: we have just as much freedom as we did before, if not more. I don't know what you're talking about. How many freedoms do you think we lost during the Bush era? Really think about it. All I can see is that government is taking a step in the banks and corps and keeping them from exploiting civvies like they have been for years. I don't see how that limits the people from doing what they want to do. The majority of conservatives want that? They are they most divisive people in this whole thing. How many times did I hear during the campaigning that some conservatives wanted to secede. |
Lots and lots as I recall. Bush used the old "terrorism" excuse to deny people freedom and liberties.
'Yeah, we need to start taping your phone calls in case, uh... you are planning to blow up the, erm, zoo'.
I mean the guy just whipped up a frenzy and made everyone scared of Muslims. Who the hell is scared of muslims seriously? They are genuinely the nicest most caring people I know, anyone who has muslim friends relises this within five minutes. They are unfortunate casualties from a big brother society.
Lots of freedoms for the USA were lost under Bush. Then he started the ball rolling on a huge recession and left Obama to pick up the pieces. You know what, Bush bashing is really big in Britain and when people started I used to stick up for him and give him the benefit of the doubt, but each time he royally f**ked something up I found it harder and harder to actually do this. In the end I couldn't be bothered.
