The BIG picture is the world is going to hell in a hand basket. So we look at small things in life to try and fix.

You make me giggle.
Alright jin. You go to bed worrying about all these things. Its ok. You dont sleep at night
Worrying gets you no where. I'm optimistic about america (just like my good friend, you prolly know him... he lives in a big white building in washington DC!)

It just cracks me up to see people all worried about everything. Self implosion

It's easy to not care when your people are running the puppet show.

I really can't win with my views. I honestly don't think America will ever be half as good as it thinks it is.

But the very best we can hope for is another JFK. But if we ever did get one. He'd be snuffed out too.

LOL!!!!!
Man where do you come up with this stuff?...
*remembers*
*points to moore*
oh yea
Ha, puppet show? Propaganda alert! Propaganda alert!



Anywho... this thread has become grossly off subject. Lets go back to the subject.

And it's posts exactly like that why people don't take you seriously.

Wow... its not like i am running for president here. Having fun, lighten up! Gesh
But my point is valid

When you take this forum a litle more seriously, maybe people will take YOU a little more seriously.

I do take John seriously. He's the only conservative on here with, to be honest, the guts to post what he thinks on pretty much everything. I disagree with him on a lot but not on everything.

In general life isn't black and white. But some things are. People (liberals for the majority(from my experiances)) like to nit pick all these little details and not look at the big picture. Really its kinda funny. They just keep runing around, finding all these little things that are bad. They live their whole lives just all sad and mad and frusturated cuz stuff isn't going PERFECT. Sometimes people need to look at the BIG picture. Things are fine. Relax and enjoy life while you still can.

My point was that they didn't hate the people simply because they wanted to. They were hated because others taught them to. That's how life is still run today and it often sucks. Anyways, I agree with you on the big picture. I was actually thinking about that today, and it always takes me back to Full Metal Alchemist(yes, the anime) and I quote "All is the world, One is me". We are all just one but we have to work for the bigger picture. I don't think you've seen the bigger picture either because you only see the good side, just as Jin seems to only see the bad side. I don't think america is going well right now, but I know from history that it happens and is inevitable...but it does get better. My life personally sucks right now and I'm using this big picture concept more than ever to get through it -.-;


"They live their whole lives just all sad and mad and frusturated cuz stuff isn't going PERFECT."

Just emphasizing that this IS part of the big picture.

On a slightly off topic nature, Quiet.

I've said in the past. I don't have issues with WHAT at the base of John's posts are.

It's the nature in which he makes them that irks me and half the board.

With the majority of his posts, I can deny you that fact. And I didn't. All I said was that I do take him seriously.

I take him seriously as well, but his posts are making it tough to.

I agree. And since this thread went relatively well for the most part, I think I might post another current events thread in case you want to shoot it before me, Jin. I have to go to school though lol..if I wait a couple more minutes I won't have time to drink my green tea that's waiting for me ^^;

If I see a good story I'll post it, But by all means. Go ahead if you have one ready.

Basicly i think its one big joke to you jin. Just pass off propaganda as the truth. Create lies full of fear. I get tired of it. You need to say more factual stuff.

Hah. If that's what you need to believe.

By all means believe that. Whatever helps you sleep at night.

John...this was inappropriate and really doesn't make any sense. I'm really really starting to get confused as what is and isn't considerred propaganda in your eyes. I didn't see any lies, especially those filled with fear, created by Jin and therefore don't see anything for you to get tired of. What Jin said was based on facts as far as I could see. His sources aren't even those of the US, so they can't be the American Propoganda you complain of. The only person who showed anything as a Joke was yourself in the manner of the 2 posts of yours preceding this one.

Yeah, I like BBC alot. I look it up every day. lol.

They seem to post pure facts instead of opinions and I respect that.

I've noticed jin posts things without factual bases.

such as
"It's easy to not care when your people are running the puppet show."
i could find others if you find it necessary quiet chaos

1) The republicans control the house
2) A republican president is in office.
3) The united states government is a sham and a puppet show for big business.

While the last is my personal opinion, am I not allowed to post it?

Well maybe you should put an opinion heading over your opinion in the future.... so it doesn't attempt to blend in with the fact.
