lol im just screwin with ya, ive met with my recruiter, taken my ASFAB scored very good on it, all im waiting for is the active duty to open up and im on the first plane to Bootcamp! So yes im pretty much in. Ive been promised an AMT job and training! When do you leave for the Marines Paul??? BTW saweet ride man!

Then if you are active, you should think a little more about criticizing the president.

Over half the food given out to San Diego families by Food banks is given out to the families of ACTIVE DUTY Personell! And our bungnet for a president spends BILLIONS (last number I heard was 40 billion) dollars on a Star Wars missile defense system that scientists are sure CANT WORK, talks about sending people BACK to the moon, and gives out tax breaks to the wealthiest people.
This administration makes me sick. I have never seen a group of people working harder every day to screw the average low or middle class person.

I could go on agrily about those folks for hours.... but I'll just save my blood pressure and go back to thinking about my car.

I totally agree Chris. Im not sayin he is perfect, im just saying why bash the president in a Mustang chat forum?? All the guy who started this thread was lookin for is an argument am i right? I just think if your gonna bash someone then do it where its needed, on the vote ballet, not in a chat room. I just think people should support the president and their country. Its like when people live in the U.S.A and talk about how bad it is to live here, so you tell them then move to Iraq, or Mexico, or somewere of that matter, and the first resopnse you get is "Hell no." So it cant be to bad here. I do agree with you on that subject you brough up all in all!

The better question is why *not*? This isn't a tech forum, why should all topics need to be Mustang specific?

I totally disagree -- public discussion of these kinds of issues is critical to the functioning of a democracy.

I just think people should support the president and their country.

Don't make the mistake of lumping together support for our nation and support for the sitting president. They do not have to coincide, and frequently don't. It is *because* of my support for this nation that I dislike the sitting president.

I'm sorry but the whole if you don't like america move to another country is just about the dumbest thing I've ever heard. Ron Jeremy uses it on his political rants. And OH MY GOSH. That man is about as loony as one person can be. If you talk about how bad it is. And people start listening, then perhaps some change can come. So why keep some veil of secrecy around it? And justify it as support your president. There are lots of problems in the USA right now. Unemployment, economy, war on terrorism. And Bush seems to be riding roughshod over nearly every ally we have. I believe the troops in Iraq and other countries should be supported. But I am more than open to debate the merits of our president. It is after all an election year. And a debate like this could help get more information out to people on here who might vote.

Why is it dumb?? It is completly blunt and true. Im sick of earing people B I T C H about their homeland, like they have it so bad, when here in America your living the best you will anywhere you live. It does not matter who uses it in their arguments, you must watch a little bit too much **** to know what type of a person Ron Jeremy is. Thats sad man. In other words its just how i feel, if you dont like america why live here? Thats all im stating, i know the current president is screwing up big time, but that does not mean you should bash america, president yes, america no.
Dave, very well said! I understand where everyone is coming from in this thread, except for the ingenious SVTDRVIER,. It was my opinion and the way i feel about my homeland, if you dont like it, if its so bad, get the **** out then. The U.S.A would be a better place without all the people bashing it, sayin how bad it is, and sitting on their asses not doing anything about it.

SVTdriver · Apr 20, 2004

I don't watch Ron Jeremy ****. He happens to post on this very site. You should take a look at his posts.

I disagree. It is a better place because people are free to complain about things that are wrong. If nobody complains nothing gets fixed. I never said people should complain and then sit on their butts. That is actually completely against what I believe.

NO one was bashing the country, just the administration.

Rootus · Apr 20, 2004

I am 100% okay with people complaining to their heart's content, with one caveat: you have to vote. If you refuse to exercise that one privilege to participate in this democracy, then [at least in front of me] you can keep your trap clamped.

RiceEatingStang · Apr 21, 2004

Ok this is getting to be just like beating a dead horse, so oh well. Im thorough with it. I agree with HairyCanary on all the posts he has made, about the not voting etc. I just think that Stangnet is an odd place to sit and B I T C H about a president, seriously its a car forum not a political ****fest. As you can see all this thread did was start unnessecary arguments. I just dont think stangnet is the proper place for it. That was my main point.

I know this probally isn't the wright place butt ??
