I was thinking something in a fuchsia, you know, like Dave's doing now....

You make this place look like a bar from Miami Vice and I just might take you up on it

Will there be crayon drawings?

You're obsessed with the man, just come out of the closet & admit you listen to more Van Hagar than you do Van Halen, already.

The winky means I was joking...

Actually, I'm conditioned to immediately change the channel on the rare occasion they play a Van Hagarita song on my XM in the car....

And you know damn well what happened in the '80's.... Ronald Wilson Reagan....

[cadaverdog]

Pffft.

Dear lord, you Americans can't get anything right, can you?

And you used to be fairly competent up until the 80s, what happened?

Early 90s you mean. An independant split the vote between himself and the republican candidate and the democrat candidate won. The next republican elected was mentally retarded.

Actually, I'm conditioned to immediately turn up the volume every time they play a Van Hagarita song on my XM in the car....

I figured as much.

And you know damn well what happened in the '80's.... Ronald Wilson Reagan....

And I'm damn proud to say I served my country while he was commander in chief. Other countries respected us then. They feared us.

Yes, early 90s. I meant until the end of the 80s.

And yeah, I suppose Reagan had his fair share of guilt. I think maybe it was a perfect storm of appalling decisions throughout the political & economical spectrums & you go from being the undisputed leader in scientific & technology research to some mildly retarded form of the middle-ages, where religion more or less dictates what you can & can't do?

Creationism in schools? Dear fucking god.

Yeah... afraid a senile old man would launch nuclear missiles while in one of his Alzheimer's moments after a jelly bean binge.

Um, I was there as well back then, remember....

And I could give you plenty of examples showing countries that didn't fear him or us at all during his tenure....

[cadaverdog]

You can bluster all you want, the deal is offered to you as well...

If I though presidential elections were won by the candidate who garnered more votes than the other candidates I might take you up on you're dea but I don't. I think Hillary as the next president was a done deal when Obama got the nomination and got elected in 2008. The republican barely tried to make it look like they were trying to win when they trotted out this year hopefulls.

So we're supposed to be a country that is scared of everybody else? Jesus Christo...

I agree with that, the right's candidates are a mess...

Conservatives are lucky that Democrats only vote in Presidential election years, I doubt they'd have any majority anymore....

Boy did you turn that one around...

Just saying plenty of countries did things to us during Reagan's tenure showing they didn't fear us at all....

Scared of hurting people's feelings, yes.

Scared of being called racists, so you don't report minorities building bombs, yes.

So are you saying that's a good thing or a bad thing? And yeah, I've been known to turn a phrase. But I didn't have to in this case.

There's a difference between fear and ignorance. ISIS is ignorant. Well, not so much because they know Ubama ain't gonna do squat against them.
