I'd really like to same something positive about the direction this country has taken. Unfortunately, I can't think of anything. This country has many problems that are spiralling out of control, and very little to nothing is being done to address those issues. Go ahead and wave the flag if you must, but that's not gonna solve anything.

That has to be the most silly reply in months -- even from you. Why would my voicing what people like you have done to this nation force *me* to move out? In reality, YOU should leave -- YOU are the ones that caused this mess with your selfish RED-STATE mentality.

Telling me to leave is no different then telling the people of Israel to leave their land.

And golly --- we know *you* wouldn't do that, would you?

So sit down and stay quiet.

What this country needs is more vocal discontent among the population and less flag waving idiot's who are content with the way things are going.

Red State, Blue State - It doesn't make any difference! They [politicians]are not to be trusted no matter what their affiliation. The only reason they have an affiliation with a particular party, is because they can get ahead with them more so than with the other. They care about their own agenda first, and will tell you whatever you want to hear, as long as you vote for them. And just to keep you on their side they'll throw you a bone everynow and then, and use a lot of propaganda inbetween.

Anybody that puts 100% faith in either of the two "popular" parties is naive, or still living in the 50's.

AMEN! But it is just easier to tell us to leave -- I mean, why try to fix the problem. That's too much like work.

Gotta go watch American Idol and Are You As Smart As A Five Year Old -- or some such crap.

Obviously you "folks" have never had a leading role in anything in your lives. You think it's easy, fun, forgiving. When and if you ever do get in that position, you will hopefully understand that you cannot make everybody happy. You have to do what you feel is right for the common good. Even then...your the boss.

So GW is an idiot, moron, lunatic, loser, uneducated, abuser, and warmonger. I surely hope that ya'll will be on here to apologize for "your" candidate if they win. OOps,, forgot. They could do no wrong. That you would admit anyway.

love it or leave it. the old cop out phrase from the days of Nixon. it was stupid then and it is stupid now.

if you want to change the system you must stay inside of it to do so.

i love this country as much as anybody but that does not mean i have to agree with whomever is in power.

The good part about Are You Smarter Than A Fifth Grader, is that at least this way, there is some reassurance that kids are still being taught a few things.
The good part about American Idol is....is....ummm...is it provides revenue for the TV network.

Dude, you make our point on your own every time. Someday hopefully you will wake up and realize what your saying.

Disagreement is good. If not it would turn Nazi real quick. But the constant complaints of US citizens is nauseating. Review posts, please.

According to the polls, your winning.

Less flag waving idiots???.... What flag are you waving???

"I mean, why try to fix the problem". I'm filthy rich and have no problems. Let the rest of America eat cake. That seems to be the prevalent attitude amongst our politicians and corporate aristocracy.

How about the flag that say's "FU".

I'd settle for not visiting our problems on the rest of the world at the moment. We are the United States of America, we are not the United Guardian of the Universe.

Really? Should we have stayed out of WW1 and WW2? Of course we are the the police of the world. Do I like it? Not really, but thats the way it is and has to be. Who else will do it? Someone has to. I would rather it be us. I kinda like the life I have here.
