Oh, I won't argue that he's done a good job in office. I would agree with you there. I'm just saying the job is tough and it's rare when you'll make big decisions without people looking back on them and being unhappy in some way. People would have complained if he didn't invade Iraq also. He made the wrong choice, but he had to do something, and all I'm saying is that it can't be easy to be in that kind of situation on the spot without time to really prepare for the best way to handle it.

Trolling with your ID is a special category commonly referred to as an "attention whore" sub specie of troll.

Regardless of the sub specie of troll...ID is irrelevant.

An Internet troll, or simply troll in Internet slang, is someone who posts controversial, inflammatory, irrelevant or off-topic messages in an online community, such as an online discussion forum or chat room, with the intention of provoking other users into an emotional response<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-0">[1]</sup> or to generally disrupt normal on-topic discussion.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-1">[2]</sup>
<sup></sup>

heh...So basically anyone who doesn't agree with your POV is someone who is disrupting normal on-topic discussion.

Got it, Joe.

I'll agree with ya there. Sometimes it's a wonder ANYONE would wanna be president these days if you think about it. A true testiment of character in a man. I do however wonder his road to the president vs others. Bush with family lineage, political life in his blood, doors opened left and right for him vs someone else who started from nothing and wrote his own path to the presidency be it Obama, Carter, Ford, Nixon, and others.

Lies and strawmen...isn't the internet fun?

It's not about my POV.

It's about spewing lies as a POV.

Got it...troll?

MJ, I read your definition of a troll and thought it fit you pretty well.

Would this include posting a link to fake nudes of Obama's mom?

No it wouldn't.

Nobody made you click on the link.

It was your choice.

If I had bombed the forum with the pictures...different story.

You know...like all your buddies did with the disparaging Palin picutures and lies that never bothered you at all. :think2:

J, it would more accurately define some kook who creates repeated threads on the same tired baloney about Obama not being an American.

He's not leaving Toronto anytime soon. More fun to pretend to be a cheesehead

I have respect for president bush. I don't think he did a good job in office for the states, but I still respect him. People sometimes forget that being President of a nation, especially the United States of America, is the toughest, most pressure filled job in the world. Obviously it has its upsides like the power and prestige, but the entire nation is debating every decision you make and most of the time at the very least 35-40% of the people will not agree with the decision you've made. People don't seem to understand the degree of difficulty of his job. He had to make a decision on VERY important issues and he had to make them quickly and confidently. He made a choice and stood by it. For that I have respect for him, even if it was the wrong choice.

Looking forward to seeing the Barack Obama era though. Should be very interesting.

I wonder what the threshold is for capital punishiment? Saddam was hung by his neck for murdering a few hundred thousand of his countrymen. W and his cronies are responsible for at worst fabricating and at best ignoring conflicting evidence that led to a war that has caused the death of no less than 100,000 Iraqi citizens and over 4,000 American soldiers. How you can offer this vile scumbag any respect is astounding to me.

It's certainly refreshing to read posts from people with real live identities.

Hiding behind a couple of cyber IDs inspires some cats to just post all kinds of wacky shit
