You label my words as hate because you don't agree with my stand on politics.

What we can do without is the smugness of people from other countries offering their opinions on how our fine country ought to be run. America is still the best country on Earth in my opinion.

You don't happen to have a source for that quote, do you? Because I call shenanigans.

Its a discussion about a political event, in the Decision 2008 forum, in the Political section of ATS.
How is that not relevant to the nature of ATS?

Timelike, pay no attention to sos. He is one of a dying breed, and if you look at the other threads you will find there is no limit the amount of hate that he spews towards the members of this forum. Please don't let the stench of just one ruin your impression of the rest of us.

I can tell by your posts here that you're a very insular and frightened individual, but you really need to grow up and stop stamping your feet. You see whether you like it or not, American is not isolated from the rest of the world. You may want to hide in the woods and pretend that the whole world is against you and that America must defend itself against anything that is white Christian, but juding by the posts here many Americans do not share your views.
I have met many people from the states and I have found them to be remarkable, intelligent, lovely people and I am most honoured to count Americans as my friends.
Had Senator McCain won the election (and I think he would have been a good president quite frankly) he would not have represent your type either; he was far to much of a gentleman to be so closed minded and insular, it is unfortuante that he had so much rabble about him.
For your own sake you need to stop hating and fearing anything that is different. Try to take an objective look at what has happened. This is your chance to change and join the rest of the world. Sadly I fear, you will do none of these things.
I don't think we have anything else to say to each other.
Regards,
Timelike.

You are correct. America today signed it's own death warrant by electing not only Obama, but a Democratic majority in the House and Senate to back him up. It won't be Obama calling the shots now, it will be Reid and Pelosi and America is royally [snip now compared to the last eight years. Congratulations, indeed. It will be our epitaph.

And that's where you make assumptions. You think I'm a white man, for one, a Christian for another. Would it shock you to know that in fact I AM African-American? One of the few here in Texas that didn't jump on Obama's "Change for America" bandwagon because I read his policies and was intelligent enough to understand how they are going to ruin this nation?
We are not a nation in ruin right now. We are crippled, but we are not in ruin. Before you make assumptions, you should know further about the people you speak.
