What they want is an America that's the leader in innovation,  manufactures the best affordable products in the world, a strong working middle class, baseball, hot dogs, & apple pie.

They want city, county, state & federal government to stop trying to regulate and tax to death what they buy, eat, smoke, or drink.

Basically they want 1948-1965 back.

Everything else you've read in this thread so far is bullshit, with Merc being the exception.

No actually its your post that is bullshit...tell us Subrob,what happened in 1965...what changed?

Aaaah, the golden era... when black people, women and faggots stayed in their place; when evil commies had their First amendment rights taken away from them; when the Cold War was raging. When real Americans knew who their enemies were!!! Those were the days indeed .

There's a reason those days are gone: they sucked ass .

Kennedy increased Green Beret activity in Vietnam, just exactly how do you know what the Tea Party wants? Are you a closet Teabagger?

Seriously, as if America ever had teeth. What a load of bollocks, really: some people truly are still resting on the manufactured laurels they were indoctrinated with. Sad.

Also, as regards to Europe's so called lack of teeth, maybe because Europe are older nations who have seen many wars,that do naught but destroy and deplete reserves of both people and resources they perhaps now seek to avoid them, as war is self defeating.

Yeah, you may get to win, and you can feel proud, wave a bunch of flags and feel good about your country, but how many of your countrymen died, how many bloodlines are now cut forever, how many good genes wasted. Let's look now at your other resources, your chemicals, your minerals, everything you had that might be used to build a better country, all gone in a poof of smoke, just so you can wave a  bloody flag.

War is bullshit, it always has been and always will be, isn't it time we saw it for what it is, and move forward out and away from Freud's phallic stage of development.

Apparently someone is in need of a history lesson.Kennedy was shot dead in Dallas Nov.of '63.Johnson was in the White House...and had just recently passed(some would say rammed thru) the Civil Rights Act...the  sweeping and comprehensive legislation which moved this Country ever closer to living up to it's ideals.
No subrob...picking 1965 had nothing to do with VietNam and everything to do with what you are afraid to declare.That is some closet you are hiding in....a real bitch that you find it necessary to do so....isn't it?
As far as whether or not I'm a closet Teabagger...due to the fact I feel qualified to offer an opinion of them...that is patenly absurd.Tell me are you and Sanity closet liberals....you both offer commentary on "libtards" nearly every day?

Agreed, and those days will not return. Especially since now, most people are resting on their asses awaiting for entitlements funded by those trying, against the tide, to succeed under present conditions set up, and being expanded, to encumber their efforts.

If you don't mind, would you please tell me what it means to succeed in these times?

My best,

One where the first resort people look to solve their personal issues isn't the government.
One where the government doesn't employ and have union contracts 30% of the workforce
One where personal accountability and consequences for decisions reside with the individual.
One where failure is allowed to happen and isn't funded with the efforts and product of the successful.
One where where charity is not a government function.
One where personal choice isn't a one issue slogan.
One where contracts replace laws prohibiting, or allowing individuals to live, love, and partner with whomever and as many they choose.
One where the religion industry is taxed like any other industry.
One where taxes are based on what you spend and not what you earn.
One where equality isn't attempted by implementing laws which, by definition, make some people 'more equal' than others.

Many people see 'America' fading because they see their ability to make personal decisions fading, replaced by government dictates. They want government off their backs, but at the same time they have become comfortable with their personal entitlements and have great difficulty combining those two concepts. Too much indoctrination and political correctness in the last two generations of students may have eliminated fundamental personal accountability from the thought process from many 'Americans'; but that's my opinion only.

No - my 'America' doesn't exist and maybe never has - but that's the place I seek to live, and will stipulate to never finding.


My America would be a place where people learned to state their opinion with far fewer words.

By 2012, the next presidential election year, non-Hispanic white births will be in the minority.


There you happy now?
