This is curious. You accuse one half of the population of being responsible for our decline...but I'm going after specks? How exactly am I going after "specks?"
Interesting - I don't know a single liberal who is self-loathing (though some are increasingly negative about the path this country is on). I do know a lot who thinks the right shows those exact characteristics. Likewise, I don't know a single conservative who is self-loathing (though many are unhappy with the path this country is on). It's amazing how each side sees the other in almost the exact same terms.The ultimate weakness of violence is that it is a descending spiral begetting the very thing it seeks to destroy...returning violence for violence multiplies violence, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars. Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that. Martin Luther King

Well we can't really generalize about the exeptionalism of the American people, Sparko. After all they were stupid enough to fall for, and elect, an unlawful wannabe dictator who wants to take down western democracy.Originally posted by Sparko View PostYou seem to be the one going after specks.
But like I said, despite liberalism and the requisite negativity and self-loathing that comes with it, America and its people are still exceptional. You can be ordinary if you wish.Comment

If you are going to mock exceptionalism and call other people stupid, JimL, at least learn how to spell it.Originally posted by JimL View Post

It isn't mispelling that makes a person stupid, Sparko, but being conned into voting for Trump as your President, now that was truly stupid.Originally posted by Sparko View PostComment

Yeah, it sure was. Stupid of Hillary to con America into voting for Trump the way she did.Originally posted by JimL View Post

Doesn't matter what your stupid excuse was, it was stupid nontheless. The base deplorables of course will never admit to that, or agree with it, but it seems that the more sensible of those who voted for him are realizing their mistake.Originally posted by Sparko View PostComment

It just makes Trump's honest victory all the sweeter.

I almost voted for Obama the first time he ran.
But I don't have a clue who the democrats could have put up instead of Hillary this time that I would have voted for. Certainly not Sanders. Actually this election I didn't see too any really good candidates on either side. I sort of liked Kasich, but I didn't really know much about him (or the other republican or democrat candidates) - but he made sense when he spoke and seemed like a reasonable person who held the same values I did as part of his campaign and platform. But on the Democrat side, I can't even recall any of the early candidates, and Sanders was a socialist nutjob so I would have voted Hillary over him. But Hillary herself was just so dishonest and her personality just grates on me like fingernails on a chalkboard. I had to vote for Trump. She made me.
