BClear 0 #1 July 26, 2008 It seems that they have forgotten the meaning of the term. We're bombarded everyday with political speeches that weren't written by them about viewpoints they don't entirely control about issues they have no personal direct bearing over. And yet somehow the people we think of as leaders don't have the balls to stand on their own two feet and speak to us with their own words and their own mind. Obama has his 26 yr old writer, no wonder the younger crowd adores him. America has ignored issues to a point that later generations expect them as a norm. It still amazes me how many people on either side of the political spectrum bash a politician who made mistakes or turned back on campaign promises. Well no shit, the man couldn't even tell you what he could do for your country for himself by himself. We don't accept plagarism in highschool but we turn a blind eye for a better show on the political level. Riddle me this, when's a good LEADER been in office before the Kennedy/Nixon speech? Much less in times of war. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vortexring 0 #2 July 26, 2008 You'd an almost interesting argument until your conclusion literally came from a F*CKING Batman film. 'Riddle me this'. Piss off! edit: No offence intended Batdude. 'for it's Tommy this, an' Tommy that, an' "chuck 'im out, the brute!" But it's "saviour of 'is country" when the guns begin to shoot.' Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
