Same. I've viewed the US as a place to just make money and save for living a cheap high life in Poland.

You just said it pal,but Poland will no longer be what you think(thats my prediction again).Money is in Poland more then in the Usa.In States people come from all over the world to be successful,but few do.But among duffers in Poland its easy for a smart person to make money.In states living high life is expensive but is becoming same in Poland also rapidly.I betya Polonia will be a a diff country in another 20 yrs.UN AFFORDABLE AND EXPENSIVE rather 10 years.

stop allowing foreign money ( soros) from influencing our elections.

It is Chinese or Russian money (even $1000 spent for targeted commercial advertising) may ruin US democracy. Anything that come from the hands of a chosen people is good by definition. Even if it is expansive bullet targeted to your cherished body. ;)

@Johnny,
Trumps' incapable of being the phase-making doer FDR was because first the former would have upgrade his reading level from elementary to primary school.
Or is senility creeping up on him as it did with Reagan?

Bring it on. :-)

Something the Bias drive - by - media's would NEVER show.

No video necessary. His almost daily pronouncements are evidence enough!!

Ah come on Mark, watch it and learn.
What ya scared of ?
The interview was done with Oprah does that help ?

A Rep wannabe sucking up to Trump to curry favor, no doubt?
Of what benefit could that possibly be?

johnny reb
20 Feb 2020  #3340

That video is 25 years ago before Trump had any power.
Did you watch it ?

So who did you like in the debate last night ?
I have to give it to Warren as she tore Bloomberg a new one.
Don't get me wrong however, she won the debate in my opinion but if I had to vote for any of then at this point I would have to cast it for Bloomberg to run the country out of all of them.

He would have to announce his running mate first however.

Bloomy's a spoiler, the Ross Perot of '20, and will only "help" Trump get re-elected LOL. Happy to report, he got REALLY trounced last night in Michigan:-) Good for the Michiganders.

Bernie's probably the better choice in the long run, but he'll never make it. Warren??
Don't make me laugh!! I wouldn't call her what the President called her during his debate in '16, I'd find "Pollyanna" much more fitting, wouldn't you?

Klobachar? Can't really say for certain, but Buttegieg doesn't have a snowball's chance in hell.

Patriotism, healthy and good!
Nationalism aka unthinking jingoism??! Decidedly unhealthy, and BAD, BAD, BAD!!

That's a false equivalence.... there are degrees of nationalism and patriotism is impossible without nationalism....

Bratwurst Boy
20 Feb 2020  #3343

Nah...what you mean is that:

MY nationalism is good.....and all people who share MY nationalism are good and pure hearted and super smart people! Everybody should love it!

It's these other foreign nationalists which are bad. Their nationalism is always bad...that's arrogant and hateful and stupid...and just wrong! We hate them!


There... :)

mafketis
20 Feb 2020  #3344

what you mean is that:

I wrote what I meant - patriotism is only possible through nationalism, just like ideas like universal education (or universal healthcare) only came into being in the nation state and are now disappearing as the nation state fades....

Bratwurst Boy
20 Feb 2020  #3345

Why should these ideas disappear?

They have much more to do with the civilizatory progress of the western societies than with borders...these ideas didn't spread because of borders!

Lyzko
20 Feb 2020  #3346

@Maf, I take your point some. However, we do agree that an inflated nationalism which doesn't recognize historical missteps in any nation's history is short sighted and intrinsically wrong.

mafketis
20 Feb 2020  #3347

Why should these ideas disappearing?

You haven't been keeping up with news in the UK or US, have you?

theguardian.com/politics/2019/nov/25/hospital-beds-at-record-low-in-england-as-nhs-struggles-with-demand

there's lots more if you look... the model of government providing services has only really existed with the nation state and if that goes... then so do the services...

talbott

These are the exact words of Strobe Talbott the US deputy secretary of state during the Bill Clinton administration. He openly stated this in 1994 during the war in Bosnia. Strobe Talbott was also the president of Brookings Institute and a member of CFR.

He dissected the unintended humor of the English language like no other. I'd roar with laughter.

but Buttegieg doesn't have a snowball's chance in hell.

None of these Dem Clown Car of candidates will even come close to winning the election. Youll have a better chance of reaching down to the political graveyard and touch the ghoulish hand of FDR and resurrect his ghost.

I have to give it to Warren as she tore Bloomberg a new one.

It certainly was amusing watching the clowns tear each other up last night. Im sure more is yet to come as the desperation closes in on them. Perhaps, the dumb asses will figure out there are just too many horrible lefite candidates running.

I'd roar with laughter.

I seen his show live once in Ft.Myers back in the 90`s

He was a genius and probably my favorite comedian and Richard Pryor too!

I think superior because Prior often used excessive vulgarity, much like Lenny Bruce, purely for shock value!
Carlin was far more creative and while occasionally vulgar too, used better judgement in my opinion:-)

The ol' "graveyard vote's" as old as the hills, tried and tested:-)

Trump wasn't in Michigan last night as far as I know.

Is GB or the US somehow losing their nationhood and I missed that?

They're losing the nation state model.... for example the famous quote by Trudeau: "There is no core identity, no mainstream in Canada.... There are shared values-openness, respect, compassion, willingness to work hard, to be there for each other, to search for equality and justice. Those qualities are what make us the first post-national state"

Note that the only Canadian qualities he mentions are undefined and can mean anything to anyone (and to the extent they have any meaning at all they're more or less universalistic nice people ideals) Canada isn't a place with a particular history where people share a culture - it's a featureless place on a map for doing business.

The problem is that that type of politics inevitably leads to the end of equality before the law and toward law by group membership as groups self-segregate

Bloomy's a spoiler,

Bloomberg blew the female vote when he made the remark about "the fat ugly horse faced lesbian movement."
Nothing like calling it for what it is but damn........ya got ta be political and lie sometimes if you want to get elected.

Lyzko

Wherever he was, I'm still glad he got trounced.
Anyone who removes all public payphones from the epicenter of the planet deserves be beat!
