beside - is there anyone who DOESN'T like a strong economy? i've yet to meet anyone who tells me they wish the economy would take a nose dive so they'd be cast into poverty.
I've yet to meet anyone that wants to give their sovereignty to the UN. Funny, huh?

And Liberal media?, erm ... no. Just no. Seriously. No.

No, you said hating your government is the same as hating your country, then you changed your mind, which is fair enough.

it's not disrespect, peter. it's perspective.
Erm, no, it's disrespect, I'm not giving your country advice or tell you how you should live, you just don't like the fact that I don't agree with you and since you can't go the "You hate America" route you're trying something else.
