Obama's address was mostly neutral and to the point. A very mature speech, not the kind typical of previous white house parties that would get our troops riled up to shoot some people.
and what is this with Dick Cheney talking shit about our President the night before such a major address? Cheney is tasteless.. give it up man, youre out

i really think this will happen in our life time. Something is big is coming. we are collapsing to quickly. But it is in our nature to fight for what we want, lets just hope it doesn't come to something like that.

Karma bump for actually understanding whats going on. Also for being one of the few that actually knows we were founded as a republic.

Unfortunately people are so dumbed down these days, it makes it much easier to control them. Nobody reads anymore, nobody researches. We get our ideas from tv and the mainstream news.

Independent think is toast.

There are some in a america who will fight, hopefully by then it isn't to late. because by the time other people start waking up, we will be in such a shitty situation.

I remember learning that we were a democracy. that was the word that was going around. Now were more of an oligarchy.

When was the last govt class you took?

We were formed as a Democratic Republic. On paper that is what we are. The House of Representatives is what forms the "Democratic" portion. The Senate is what forms the "Republic" portion.

Actually we were founded as a constitutional republic.

I don't believe the word democracy is mentioned once in the constitution

On paper it is indeed called a constitutional republic. In practice as it was originally intended though it is a democratic republic.

What you say at the end is pretty interesting. It's actually very true. But your on the wrong end of it unfortunately.

You just called yourself out, not me.

The average american right now has not made their own decisions. They have not come to their own conclusions. They follow what they listen to on fox and cnn.

If you don't believe me listen close to what they say if your ever see them try to debate the facts. The drop lines  right from fox and cnn. I watch the news sometimes just to get a feel for what they are saying, and then listen to people say exactly what the news told them too.

Too many people telling me what billoreallyyyy thinks not what they think.

Public opinion right now is extremely ignorant.

you really should have included that last sentence. It really did not help you.

Unfortunately the global war on terror is absolute bullshit.
