Quoting vineyards:

I think you are missing the point. It would be a lot easier for me to ask you to prescribe me what word to use and I will gladly obey. What I am essentially objecting to is the absurdity of establishing a political influence on words which are symbols and which do not symbolize anything other than what they have come to symbolize.

Aren't Afro-Americans denied of certains right because of their skin color? This is still true while everyone pays enermous attention to being politically correct when talking about them. I can both call you "darling" and have a plan to kill you in the evening.

My suggestion is forget about words. Concentrate on Presidential elections.

One might stand against the wind mills if there was some wind to start with.

What about the wind?

Quoting cpatrick219:

We are all lucky Ronald Reagan came along when he did.

Quoting vineyards:

Yes, he and his team introduced new policies entitled the new world order, global village, global gendarme. His successors built on his achievements.

The new world order was meant for other nations to learn who the master was and whose values mattered. We are still suffering from its consequences.

The Global Village concept was designed to iron out the differences among cultures and to create a single Coca Cola empire composed of vassal states.

The global gendarme doctrine enabled America to make sure that the aforementioned doctrines are observed - if needed at the point of a gun - all around the world.


If you like this kind of a world, you like leaders like Reagan, Bush or Clinton. If you are not annoyed by a nuke them all policy, he is your ideal leader.
