We used to be the Americans.

[Rustic]

We used to be the Americans. There was no one else like us. We were known around the world for our courage, our fairness, our honor, our generosity, our ability to get things done. And no one had to tell us how to be great. Now we're the Americans. There's no one like us. We're known around the world for our violence, our stupidity. What happened to us?

The Only thing worse than nationalism is globalism…

Liberalism.

World opinion of the USA has gone up substantially under Obama, after nosediving under Bush.

Except in Russia, and North Korea. The enemies of the USA think much like the enemies of Obama.

Bush.

It sounds like I'm kidding, but we all know its true.

In all seriousness though, we haven't always been known as a pillar of virtue everywhere:

Now we have BLM inciting terrorism across the US.

Progressives have been working for decades to divide us, that way they can conquer us individually.

It's called conservatism. Rightists ruin everything.

We elected a traitor to the White House.

Agreed. Electing dubya was easily one of the biggest mistakes we've ever made. He damn near bankrupted the entire country.

Derp derp

Technically we're still Americans. It's just that Obama has made the world recognize that we are now post-constitutional Americans.

What silly, meaningless blather. We were a nation. Now we're factions. And no, Obama didn't do it. It began to be apparent long before he came on the scene. Just when I thought we had a chance at unification through his presidency, Mitch McConnell declared an absolute stonewall policy against him. No other president has faced such a consistent and blatant opposition. And now the new meme is "Obama is racist". What nonsense.

Everything was just fine until Obama got elected, right?

All this violence seemed to escalate since Barry was elected... Lol

fine, no
but it really did not get better under him,not in the US or around the world.

Healthcare, trade, unemployment, welfare, national dept, number of terrorist attacks, divisions between groups, real income, crime

Sorry not deserving of a standing ovation

What happened to following forum rules? This isn't current events, there is no link and this is just an opinion.

It IS current events. The continuation of gun violence is an every day occurrence. And everyone's posting is their own personal opinion. The NRA would have us all armed all the time without benefit of licensing or training. A good guy with a gun, such as the police, would always be able to take out a bad guy with a gun. Every time. And of course, with everyone armed, and shooting, the police would instantly be able to tell the good guys from the bad guys. Right.
