[quote=briansd1]Back to the original topic of the Olympics. I was talking to my cousin in Ohio. Her husband (whom I think she should divorce) is a vociferous Republican engineer who’s been unemployed for several years. The longer he’s been unemployed, the more radical he’s become.
He was so happy to see Chicago lose the Olympic bid. He’s even happier that Chicago was kicked out in the first round of voting.
So much for a patriot. He wants our country to lose to inflict a defeat on Obama. Just lame.
I never supported the war in Iraq or Afghanistan, but I hope that we win for our own country’s sake.
On Afghanistan, I felt that getting rid of Taliban was enough. Bringing corrupt Karzai in and undertaking nation building was a big mistake.[/quote]
Come on brian, there is no winning. You know that. It was a brain dead failed attempt at keeping the empire going. Obama is the transition guy. The country is bankrupt and coming unglued and Obama will be blamed. You can’t stop it. The rise of the christian/capitalist jihadists has begun and it’s going to be ugly.
Once the dollar goes down, they will be calling for blood.
