I just get sick of all the political correctness. Although my friends and I share a lot of the same values, I'm surrounded by liberals in this blue state and it gets hard to have a voice when you're constantly being drowned out by them. As some of you know, I'm of Cuban descent. My family was forced to flee Cuba because of communism. Maybe that makes me a little more sensitive to seeing the slow creep of socialism going on in our current government, but it is good to see that others who don't have my same perspective notice it, as well. Make no mistake, the current administration is most definitely leading us towards more government control in our lives and dangerous changes away from the democracy this country was founded upon. Castro was initially loved by the people, too. That's because he hid well his socialist agenda until he was firmly in power. But many saw what he was up to and spoke out. Unfortunately, they were too few and too late and many ended up dead or in Castro's prisons. The lucky ones, like my family, fled to Miami and began new lives, but the sting of being forced from our country has never left us. I'm thankful that this country offered us a place to escape to where we could truly live free and I never take that for granted.
So speak out. It is your right, but it is also your responsibility. Sure, political threads can often get ugly and divisive, but so can remaining silent because silence gives tacit approval to what's going on.

there is lots of bumper stickers out there that i would like to get but i would prefer to get them as magnets instead, then i could change it acording to how i feel that day. one thing i would like to locate is a confederate flag that fits my back window perfectly.
Yeah, I totally agree, but on some sites (NOT THIS ONE) the MODS freak out. I have been sent some nasty PM's before.. Oh well
Well, those are sites not worth visiting! The mods here are pretty cool. I don't think they stick their noses in stuff unless it's really over the top, and that's the way it should be.
Nobama is a freaking joke that ends on a sour note! What really bugs me about this guy (aside from all the obvious and everything everyone else has said) is that he loves to hear himself talk, Yak yak, yak ,yak. This guy gets off on making speeches. Now since everyone is tired of hearing his crap, now he's gonna make a speech to kids that are prisoners in classrooms and have no choice. What kind of a freaking bad joke is that?
Miami, dude I agree with you 100%. I am a big mouth when it comes to stuff like this and I have always had strong feelings. I have grown really sick and tired of always being told to "settle down", that "no one likes to her stuff like that" or "Don't make waves". I have gotten myself in trouble many times, but at least I can live with myself. If I kept quite, I would have given in and that I can't live with. The biggest problem about what you said dude is that the Cubans were able to come here to flee from Communism, my questions is, where are we gonna go when things get socialist (further than the already are) here?

I agree entirely with the line, "who voted for him?" I have noticed more and more people complaining and my first question to them is exactly that. Everyone wanted "change" but no one seems to be informed or cares about the country as a whole. My mother in-law loves the guy but despises abortion and can't wait for her next stimulus check. Can't figure some people out.
People this country is in for a very dramatic and abrupt change.
i have a problem with him making fun of disabled people. that was very uncool.
Wait wait when did that happen!?!?!?! Do you have a Link?

btw anyone that makes fun of disabled people in front of me will get there ass kicked. Will not hesitate to beat the living dog s@#$ out of them. Too bad he had to say that in the comfort of his security gaurds.
