Will the World Like the US Better Under Obama?

[Gem]

- "He can work with Democrats on key issues...he's worked with us." Tom Daschle

- "John McCain is a personal friend, a great friend, and I would be honored to run with John McCain..." Joe Biden

- "I have enormous respect for him, hes courageous, patriotic American who stands up for what he believes..." John Kerry

- "I admire Senator McCain greatly, and he is one of the people we model our campaign on because he is very direct, very blunt, and no one has to guess at what he is thinking about..." Howard Dean

- "I love John McCain, he's a great guy." Russ Feingold

- "Coming to Washington I believe that the right approach has been put forward by Senator Liberman and Senator McCain," Barak Obama

- "I know that Senator McCain has a lifetime of experience that he will bring to the White House...and Senator Obama has a speech he gave in 2002" Hillary Clinton


Wait...are we supposed to listen to your side NOW....or listen to them BEFORE they realized that they needed to do whatever it takes to get their guy elected?

Michael's point is valid enough.

Compared to our GDP our real donations to poor nation is fairly low compared to some other nations.

In terms of actual dollars, we might seem fairly generous.

But if we exclude the "aid" we give in the form of weapons, USA aid is truly small given our GDP.

We USED to be the most generous nation on earth when it comes to giving aid, but times have changed.

Wow ignore facts and spread bullshit.

What weak-ass nations like England don't get is...we don't HAVE to be liked by their pitiful asses. We have no need of them. We don't do what we do because we have to, we do what we do because we're the greatest nation on earth.

Period.

Who gives a fuck if terrorists, socialists, and fascists don't like us?

 

[Larkinn]

List of most charitable countries - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

the US leads the world in private charitable donations with 1.67% of GDP nearly twice the private contributions of the UK.

add that to the official or government sponsored aid of .18% GDP and you'll see that the US trumps every other country in the world for total charitable giving.

People in the US don't need their government to tell them to give to charity like the rest of the world seems to.

Try looking at international aid, not domestic aid. Americans giving to other Americans doesn't count as Americans giving to the rest of the world.

Well then good, they can withdraw all their troops from Iraq and Afghanistan. Oh look Allie, you made George Bush cry.

Those were before McCain went off the deep end.

yeah, but those other nations dont spend what we do to defend them either
they get to be more free with their money because we spend ours to help defend them
and we do this for the simple reason, if they fall, it would make us that much less safe

and high time too I would say. When have any of those countries we have been so generous to ever expressed gratitude? No, they take the money then turn around and bite us.

why don't you ask that jerk off Michael Collins who's gonna rescue his snotty ass from the Russians? He bitches nostop about our defense spending. I disagree with the bolded. The UK is gone, nothing left there for us to defend. I would venture to say that the majority of the Brits have the same attitude as MC. Personally I wouldn't piss on him if he were on fire. That's just me.

I don't need to. Anyone with and IQ over 90 knows that the US is the most generous nation on earth.

No you are not. Prove it...

Actually the world is needing the US less and less. This financial meltdown was predicted a while ago.

See what runaway capitalism/greed does Allie. Aren't your proud of your greedy pals...

You also spend your money arming shithouse nations like Saudi Arabia and tinpot dicatators in South America. Maybe that money would be best spent elsewhere.

Stop making out you're this nice benevolent nation protecting the world from evil. Half the time you're the freaking problem, not hte solution...

Why don't you inform us what designs Russia has on the UK and what danger it is in? This is the kind of empty BS rhetoric designed to make neocons feel they are right in what they do around the rest of the world. After all, you look a tad silly when you find out they don't need you. But keep it up. Whatever makes you feel good. If the US left its bases in Europe, nobody would give a toss...

Fiddlesticks. I'm proud of my pals, they aren't the ones who raped the economy to provide every illegal alien with a home.

Actually, remember the GOP split in two over illegals? That's because half of you, the true conservatives, don't like illegals. But the other half love to hire illegals. That's why your party was split on this issue.

Why was my party split? Because we have the bleeding heart liberals that want to give everyone amnesty.

Both parties also want to win the hispanic vote, so both parties kissed their asses.

I could give two shits for illegals.

My granddaughter is Hispanic.
