  The media went back 6 months after the fact and recounted every single disputed ballot, using every criteria possible. Gore lost. Again.
  
  Take heart though, he'll go down as the only schmuck to lose the same election 4 farking times. :rolleyes:

  Seems pretty clear to me that the person who took the oath of office won. Handy sports concept - scoreboard.

  Go back and do some-research...
  
  We will never know who really won as there was way too much corruption
  
  You all know Bush did not fairly win(if he really won at all)

  Most people in the US still think Socialist is some bad term synonymous with Communist/Russians/the bad guys. So any study is inherently flawed. Decades of propaganda will do that.

  The only true leftist president since I've been alive was Lyndon Johnson. All the rest were moderates. You can't really call Obama a leftist whenever he has increased military spending to unparalleled levels and has cut taxes in spite of a high national debt. And I won't even mention the fact that he escalated wars in 2 countries.

  Do you think it (Socialist) is a bad term in and of itself?
  What about expanding socialism?
• Paladin

  Wow, you mean the rich won't be as rich, but will still be rich ?
  
  He11, thats not right.
• CenterBHSFan

  

  I don't see a problem with somebody being rich, super-rich or ultra-hyper-infinite rich.
  And I don't see a problem with those rich people staying rich.
  
  I don't give a damn. And I'm not even rich. (or close to it)

  It isn't a bad term per se but it is considered one by most people in the United States.
  
  I don't know what you mean by expanding socialism (I get the concept but not specifically what you're talking about being expanded).
  
  Theoretically I'd like to have no socialistic policies because it'd be sweet if we could do everything as a pure free market. But that doesn't work. Where I disagree with most of the posters on this board is where and how much regulation is needed. But apparently most of you think I want a government take over of everything so...

  We don't know what it's like in this country without things like socialized medicine, social security and other programs that come from somebody else's dollar - because it has been so long that we've had them. Sure there are a few old timers out there who remember what it's like, but they're the very slim minority. All we know from that time are what we read in books. But then history isn't always what happened, it is what was written down, eh? lol
  
  I do think you know what kinds of things I'm meaning as far as expanding socialism. For instance - Obamacare.
  (which, coincidently ties in with my next statement concerning regulations and/or government handling)
  
  As far as regulations, I don't think anybody on here wants to do away with them altogether. I think the people on this board are pretty much saying that we, that means government, need to worry about practicing and enforcing the regulations that are already there, instead of piling on more. For some reason, anything that the government wants to control seems to get away from them rather easily. This goes for everything from BP to border protection to social security to medicaid/medicare and everything else in between. And instead of getting a grip on what is already there, they seem to think that the answer is to pile on yet more rules, regulations, social programs and power-grabs.
  
  Why?
  Why do we put up with it?
  Why do we endorse it?
  Why do we scoff at the people who are sick of it?
  Why do we make fun of the people who are protesting it?
  Why are we content with having what is obviously a learning disability?
  Why are we complacent?
  Why are there still people resisting these concepts every step of the way, including this message board?
  
  Complacency = subjugation
• believer

  

  ^^^Spot on! Great post.
• I Wear Pants

  I agree with you on most of those points. There are many areas where I feel it would be better to either keep the same sort of rules and change how they are enforced or to perhaps scale back the rules. An area that I can use as an example is the policies we have towards the internet (DMCA, more recently ACTA, etc) that I believe not only overstep the bounds of what we should be doing but they aren't even effective at what they are supposed to be. Simplification in many areas would be nice. I don't understand why everything policy nowadays is like 700 pages.
• CenterBHSFan

  

  Pants, I agree with the 700 pages or even 3,000 pages thing.
  
  I just think that it is our job and our birthRIGHT to let our government know when they've gone too far or not gone far enough. Along with bitching, complaining and voting their asses out.
• I Wear Pants

  I can't disagree with you there. Which is why I send letters to my congressman fairly often.
