Hey guys
I guess I am going to make myself unpopular here , ( more so ? )
America is not the centre of the world , try thinking outside your self contained box ,
There is a bigger world than just the good ole USA ,

China , Russia,  Europe is bigger ,  not that it proves anything , the dinosaur was  biggest creature , it died out  ! ,

Ok, you have a new ( soon to be President ) who wants to open up a dialog with the world ,and I get posts saying he is black  , the way I see it he is ˝ white ,
Even El Qaeda is willing to talk , ( face it you ain’t beaten them yet )
A month back you where talking  lets go to war over Georgia ,  the rest of Europe was saying hold on a while , Russia moved in only as a peace keeping force  in a small part of that country , and it worked out OK ,  the despotic ruler of Georgia didn’t want peace ,
But was just looking for American $$$$,  nothing more , you guys nearly walked into an ambush there , IMHO

Already I have seen posts on Obama’s future failures , ?  LOL , talk about giving the guy a chance , indeed Europe welcomes you new leader ,  time for change maybe , only time will tell on that  if you give him chance,

Is your naming French fries freedom fries serious ?  ,  I tried not to laugh over that ,
Is it due to Frances reluctance in the Iraqi war ? , if so you seriously misjudged and insulted France ,  You may have lost 3000 folk in 9/11 , but France lost 7million fighting for world freedom , yours a well as mine ,

I guess just my European thoughts on our armistice day , in honour of the worlds  war dead

So tell you what. I'll sell Obama to the highest bidder.  Laughing And your right the cup is only half full. Again for the hundredth time, its not his color, its his politics that I disagree with. If he had been white, I'd still  felt the same way about not wanting him in office. If you were to read up on all his views, you might tend to agree then. Than again, you might not.  *shrug* Again, what was the opening bid for him???  wink

Your probably right on Georgia.

Freedom fries was the truth. Each to their own on that one.

Freedom fries was just stupid.  The only reason it started was because "Cubbies" was doing poorly financially, and Walter Jones (who I love), wanted the political attention.

Their food sucks anyway.

Politics are over , from the man down, thats all  of us. Simple as that. Not buggin out on anyone, this is what the site owner wants.

 Off topic is for the same type of threads we have placed here for years, "un-tech" <<< is that a word ? related "stuff ".
