Jack Weber Posted February 11, 2011 Report Posted February 11, 2011 Re posts #17 & 18: The pissant fart Trudeau will be long forgotten (or else roundly despised) while Ronald Reagan will be remembered by reasonable people in the United States, Canada and the rest of the world as the one - along with Margaret Thatcher and Pope John Paul II - who made Gorbachev to "tear down that wall" and liberated millions of people sold to communist slavery by Franklin Delano Roosevelt. A bitter ideologue,are'nt we? Quote The beatings will continue until morale improves!!!
bloodyminded Posted February 11, 2011 Report Posted February 11, 2011 Jonsa is correct, and a lot of people have noted the disconnect: We should al support the ouster of a dictator if the US deems it time for him to go; but a popular uprising, spurred on by general anger and dicontentment, a strong democratic impulse, and an increasingly organized labour movement?....not so fast!

bush_cheney2004 Posted February 11, 2011 Report Posted February 11, 2011 (edited) Can't have it both ways....this is not the first uprising in Egypt against Mubarak. The February Revolution in 1917 started under similar circumstances in Russia, but that doesn't mean it was a strong democratic impulse. Stability is more important than democracy...just ask Pierre Trudeau. Hopefully, the Supreme Council can keep it all together after being well lubed by American foreign aid!

guyser Posted February 11, 2011 Report Posted February 11, 2011 No sarcasm, at all. Meant every word I said. In that case....history isnt a strong suit huh? Not to mention reading. Are you young? Like under 20? Gosh I hope so. Quote
Jonsa Posted February 12, 2011 Author Report Posted February 12, 2011 Or like the current president who has no idea what the Constitution is, was or ever could/would be and breaks a bunch of laws? You watch too much Glen Beck. If you had any proof whatsoever, I'm sure the Republicans would luv to have it. But of course, truth isn't in very good supply in American Politics these days. Quote
Shady Posted February 12, 2011 Report Posted February 12, 2011 but a popular uprising, spurred on by general anger and dicontentment, a strong democratic impulse, and an increasingly organized labour movement See, that's the biggest problem. We don't know if any of that's the case. And anyone who says the know forsure is a liar. Including you. Your pipe dreams don't equal reality. Quote
BubberMiley Posted February 12, 2011 Report Posted February 12, 2011 See, that's the biggest problem. We don't know if any of that's the case. And anyone who says the know forsure is a liar. Including you. Your pipe dreams don't equal reality. Oh so you were just lying when you said that it was an islamic revolt like in Iran and Obama was like Carter. Thanks for clarifying that.

Including you. Your pipe dreams don't equal reality. You are singularily clueless,are'nt you??? The labour movement in Egypt in the last few days essentially shut the means of production for the Mubarak government down. There is huge anger and discontentment over youtuh unemployment and corruption with the Mubarak Fascist regime. I'm not entirely certian,however,if the whole thing is based on a true representative democratic impulse...That remains to be seen...Which might be the only thing you have a case for..

Jake Posted February 14, 2011 Report Posted February 14, 2011 History seems to be repeating itself: Jimmy Carter = Barack 0bama. Which one is more inexperienced and incompetent? Iran = Egypt. Maybe not quite, yet, but the Muslim Brotherhood is every bit as crazy as the acolytes of the Ayatollah Khomeni. Unemployment little bit better now than under the peanut guy, but how long? Respect for the United States in the world about the same as under the Nobel Peace prize winner. I mean Carter, not the equally undeserving Nobel Prize winner and current occupier of the White House. Is there a new Ronald Reagan on the horizon? We can only hope. Quote OOH-RAH… HONOR, INTEGRETY, PRIDE. A MARINE WAY OF LIFE UNTIL WE DIE!!! SEMPRE FI!
