One More Time....When Was America Great And When Did It Stop?

[pismoe]

It probably stopped latest around the 60s when we decided to let in endless waves of invaders.

This right here. That's also around the time we started normalizing degeneracy and letting black people get all uppity.

Both of which are good things... ya know... Liberty

------------------------------- Normalizing Degeneracy is not Liberty Slade .

 

[Slyhunter]

It's great when we fight wars to win and didn't allow politics to control our military targeting.
It was great when we were the king of trade and other countries didn't take advantage of us. Soon it'll hopefully be that way again.
It was great when we didn't take any shit and we lead instead of followed.

 

[impuretrash]

America was great up until Obama left office

We used to care about others, were respected around the world and we could be trusted

How much do you think Obama cared about all those people he sent drones to kill?

 

[pismoe]

and there was NO accepted 'political correctness' in Free Speech before the third world invasion Slade .

 

[Maxdeath]

There are so many things to choose from. When we forgot about ask not what your country can do for you and started with ask why your country is not doing everything for me.
It could have been when we went from having advisors in Vietnam to full blown military intervention.
It could be when we bombed a Doctors Without Borders hospital.
It could have been when we were so proud of selling guns to drug dealers that it was necessary to blame the last administration.
It could have been when it was considered acceptable to sign a nuclear deal without the full approval of congress.
there are so many things and times that it is hard to list them all. Slowly things have been sliding into worse and worse.

But I think the biggest has been when the left felt it was acceptable or perhaps required of them to lecture the right on morals and acceptable behavior when they have led the way in every case of low morals and acceptable behavior

i think America was Great up to about the 60s but was also going down hill at that time with constant making of and MORE new laws , rules and regulations at national and local levels . Thats what i remember anyway . Before that and from the 20s [my parents lifetime] up to the 60s early 70s was a Great time in America Biff .

Why was the 60's and 70's a great time in America -- seeing as tho you were most likely a child so aside from your own nostalgia -- what made that a great time in America?

 

[Biff_Poindexter]

Notice when so-called "Trumpers" answer this question -- they always begin with racist and homophobic slurs...

Slurs that could said freely back when they claim America was great -- slurs that if said back then, wouldn't be considered slurs at all...in fact, you could freely call blacks "nggrs", tell women their place is in the kitchen and call gay people "fags" -- and you can still be looked at as a decent human being by society -- in fact, you can limit the rights of those people you like to throw slurs at so much -- and still be looked at as a decent human being by society...

So this whining about "political correctness" -- is just folks being upset that they cant freely do this to other people anymore and still be seen as a decent human being by society ....and to that I say, so?

Back in the day when the Democrats were always throwing out racist slurs and hanging black people, it took a majority of Republicans to bring the civil rights act of 1964 to pass, yet those Democrats were blocking the doors with dogs and fire hoses. Only today, with PC, do you see Democrats again throwing racial slurs like "Clean and Articulate black guy, or put them back in chains, yet dumbass people let it slide. As for faggots, when you put your dick in another man's ass and call it normal, only mentally ill people think it is normal...

Eric Holder goes on MAGA attack: 'Exactly when did you think America was great?'

When did America stop being great to where we have to make it "great again"?? I have never got an answer to that question from a Trumper without them first clutching their pearls and falling on their fainting couch in faux outrage. It's a very simple question, if you feel America was great, then you must be able to point to that time period when it was great -- you must also be able to point to the time period when it stopped... Did it stop in the 2008?, was it in the 90's? -- did it stop in the 80's? 1960's?, the 50's? the roaring 20's? when?

From the article: "...Obama-era attorney general Eric Holder posed the question to MAGA-chanting Trump supporters: "Exactly when did you think America was great? -- .....the Democrats took shots at America's past as part of an effort to criticize President Trump's "Make America Great Again" slogan."

How is simply asking the question, when was America great? -- how is that "taking shots at America's past -- but claiming America isn't great now isn't taking shots at America's present? What is so wrong with accepting that America was already great and the whole purpose and intent of this country is to always strive to be greater -- Trump could have easily said "Make America Greater"

However, something tells me it wouldn't have the same appeal as "MAGA" -- maybe because the people he was trying to appeal to don't believe in the concept of making America greater for everyone -- they believe in the concept of "RETURNING AMERICA BACK" to something that was only seen as great for a select few of Americans and if it wasn't so great for other Americans, so what, they aren't real Americans anyway -- but if this isn't the case -- then you should be able to tell us.....when was America great to where it needs to be made great again?

How fucking complicated is that? When Eric holder was a flower child in the early 1970s

I really do wish you idiots would learn the difference between liberal and conservative....

The only folks who bitch and whine and opine about a time when they could freely discriminate against people of color or gays, or women -- ARE CONSERVATIVES....so miss me with the Civil Rights Act bullshit, because coincidentally -- the time period BEFORE the civil rights act are what most of you so-called Trumpers claim is when America STOPPED being great

-------------------------------------------- yep , i was just a young guy , might call me a kid . But even as a 14 - 15 year old [Motorcyclist] i recognized the Government making LAWS on actions , the requiring of motorcycle helmets on Free people that in my opinion the Government had no Right or Business to make . So pretty much i just saw the way things were going . And then a few years later the State Government started requiring Motorcycle Licencing Biff .

 

[pismoe]

and then at a later date , the Government started with requiring Seat Belts , smoking and anti tobacco laws Biff which are none of governments business . . NOW in my early 70s , its anti gun Laws Biff .

Great: 1776 - 1963 and again 1981 - 1996 and finally 2017 - present.

Any other questions?

It’s a campaign slogan. Don’t over think it or over analyze it. The simple explanation is if you’re unhappy with the last 8 years, Trump will be different. Actually Reagan used the slogan too along with “are you better off than you were 4 years ago” in 1980. Since Carter had a horrible 4 years it was pretty effective.

Kennedy used “a time for greatness” in 1960. Did that mean America had never been great before?

Just chill out over the slogan and come up with a winning slogan for the dem nominee in 2020.

Hellary 2020 - “Clinton, United, Noble, True

Mooch Obama- “A Superior Sister”

Grumpy Sanders- “Communism, Real And Plausible”

Creepy Joe- “ Build Up Tomorrow Today

I think those would get their message out.

I will entertain your narcissism for a minute....

You feel state governments enacting laws to make you wear a motorcycle helmet or get a ticket (because motorcycle helmets are not federal laws) -- is what made America stop being great -- but federal laws that made it illegal for Americans to be prevented from voting based on their race or gender didn't override your butthurt over wearing a helmet?

Do you understand how childishly delusional you look?

I've asked this same question and the answers have been evasive.

The most direct answers I got (and those were few) was prior to the Civil War and the 1950. Both refer to racism. Slavery and Jim Crow.

The more indirect answers referred to Obama. That could indicate a hatred of a black President or a hatred of Democrats in general. Either way it's all pretty ugly

I wouldn’t take the MAGA thing so seriously. It’s a slogan. Trump was running against the Dems and the Dems had held the White house for the past 8 years which he was trying to paint and a scorched earth disaster. Making America Great Again means nothing more than taking power back from the Dems

Taking the MAGA slogan and relating it to Jim Crow is giving Trump way too much credit. He doesn’t strike me as the type that thinks that deep. He is an attack dog and he likes playing with people’s emotions. Trust me, he loves seeing his opponents try to call him racist for the MAGA thing because it only makes them sound overdramatic and irrational. Don’t play his games.

It’s odd that you people can pretend that you don’t know when America was BETTER and why it was better. This shit isn’t complicated, all one has to do is have the courage to acknowledge facts and statistics...scared programmed pussies won’t dare pull their heads from their asses and allow themselves to wrap their heads around it though. Grab your straightjackets, I’m about to enlighten you nutless pukes.....
America was BETTER when it was Whiter...FACT!
America will be BETTER with less BROWN people...FACT!
NO nation is GREAT that is predominantly BROWN...FACT!

Now cue the scared bitches....scream “RACIST”!
I know, I know, I’m a total dick for exposing this revolutionary find....THANKS

So in other words, just come up with a slogan that doesn't really mean shit -- because people are easily fooled that way?

Maybe you right......but that doesn't make Americans look all that great if you have such little regard for their intelligence...

and even when you get to have your masturbatory fantasy of having all non-whites removed from this country -- there are women, gays, handicapped, children, etc -- who still would oppose your fantasy of America being great in the 1800's, 1920's etc

The problem with bitch ass people like you is that -- America is not yours, it is Ours...so fuck what you whining about
