Thats what happens to political threads.
So... your entire reasoning, just like every other Trump supporter, is comprised of whataboutisms. Brilliant.
So talk 007 first or please go away. We have enough hotheads with views on anything 007 that talk politics, I rather read their opinions.
Y'know, that line -- being used in a Star Trek movie made in the '80s but supposedly set hundreds of years in the future -- always bugged me. It's like somebody today using an aphorism about something only the Duke of York could do, and everybody around automatically getting the reference. It just didn't work for me and totally brought me out of the fiction of that movie, into the (then-) modern day reality. "The needs of the many," I suppose...
007 threads abound. Any time a political thread is opened there will be strong disagreement.
But at least those disagreements are channelled into a separate thread, that nobody who does not care about those disputes has to follow if he/she does not want to. It's a bit of a lightning rod, and as long as actual "James Bond" threads remain untouched, fine with me
But that is about politics. So this goes off and becomes the usual political back and forth, with strong statements and memes and everything. We have a politics thread within the World Events thread. I just like it contained there, personally.
Yeah I think of this as being the more dignified of the threads , where the old boys can sit back and have a chat but it’s become a cesspool
Reagan, Ronald Reagan.
Well.......there you go again.
Hahahahahahahahahaha!!! Good one, Beatles!
God I miss Ronnie. The only president I can think of who, when you watched him speak, made you want to strive to be a better person. A class act all the way. Those were the days... Of course the 80s is also my favorite decade. I was born in 1980, exactly 7 days after Ronnie won the election.
Reagan was a great face on a pig of an administration. He was responsible for PR, and nothing else. Which is why I liked him, despite the evils of the era.
I like Carter as well. Both men were fair and honest with America and her people. It's a shame either man didn't get to serve longer. Honest politicians like these two men are rare these days.
Obama has done nothing but harm my family's personal situation (primarily the impact on small business owners due to the ACA, among other things) so I am going to be extremely biased there.
I feel like Bush was a super honest guy, but he felt like a puppet and didn't really do anything except get us in a forever war with the middle east.
Clinton...well, to put it bluntly, was riding on high times so he had it easy. The thing that gets me is his push for globalism has really caused the slow degradation of the US economy. Perhaps unforeseeable at the time, but I hate it now.
I'm clearly influenced right now by what globalism has done to my region (heavy manufacturing area), hence my liking for Trump, but hopefully for some of you who reside on the other side of the fence can at least partially appreciate the sentiment...
I was born in 1954 so I was never really aware of him, or presidential politics in general, until 1960, with JFK and Tricky Dick...but looking back on his tenure, and the way he handled himself and the country as a whole...damn, I wish the guy in the office now was 1/10th as decent as Eisenhower.
Ehm... So what you are saying is that the ACA hurt your small family business? Please tell me how that works...? ;))
He tried to warn us about the dangers of The Military/Industrial Complex on his way out the door. As the Supreme Allied Commanding General in WWll one would think he had a specialized knowledge in that field...
