2008 US Election

Not to offend anyone but that wouldn't surprise me if it was the truth.

Define 'the whole developed world'.

Also, when it comes to Adrian; you can blame him for lots of things, but I doubt a low IQ is one of them. And I didn't see anything racist in his earlier post either, but maybe people here are referring to another posting (I haven't read the entire thread).

I agree with you that it's a first step in the right direction, though I fear for Obama's life as well.
I think the reason for America developing this slow is because 'they' (the important politicians etc.) still think America is impossible to defeat and invincible. Now they brought themselves down thanks to that behaviour and dragged the whole world with them.

America wasn't loved in the world because of George Bush and now this crysis they started puts them even more in a downwards flow.

I hope Obama can do some good. That people will accept that he can't walk over water and that he might need at least 8 years to undo all the crap Bush has done.

With the whole developed world I mean mostly western Europe. Though not every citizen is fond of the gay-marriage, almost all countries (of western europe) accepted and approved it.

I can't believe you are saying something like that. And as far as I remember, you are a teacher. I sure do hope this is not what you teach your pupils. Cause that would explain a lot of what is being discussed later in this tread.

I think that's the very first time I read such bullshit from you Mouse... you may of course not like or trust Obama, but that's just a really ignorant statement to make.

I keep politics out of the classroom so get a grip. I am also entitled to my opinion thank you very much! Ignorance is thinking that this guy is actually good for this country. Imo of course!

Hope you don't attempt to belittle anyone in the classroom for having a differing opinion either.

So if it was up to you, America and the world as well, would be stucked with a 72 year old senior and a woman who doesnt have any knowledge of anything at all and you actually think that would be good for America ?

Really....Do I need to say anymore...

I'm sorry if you felt offended by my comment as I'm sure that you have noticed that I have been very much supporting McCain...as much as my brain allowed. Everybody should be entitled to his own opinion, I agree. Though I think that as rational beings, this opinion should be based on facts rather than sentiments. And as much as I support free market, small governments, tax cuts, and liberal (I'd even call them neo-liberal) values, at some point I had to look at the facts. And Obama was the better candidate, no doubt. Obama will bring fresh air into world politics and as skeptical as I am about his results and deliveries, I would never say something as irresponsible as: "Ignorance is thinking that this guy is actually good for this country". During his entire campaign, McCain has been adapting and changing according to his electorate. This was a mistake which he only realized during his final speech. It was a great speech, where he honestly and genuinely accepted Obama to be the legitimate winner of this elections. I do hope that for once, his voters will change according to him.

And coming back to your Marx comment. That is an opinion indeed. Similar to somebody saying "Pigs are the fastest birds". You are entitled to it. Just that nobody will take you serious, and you can't expect anyone to take you serious either.
