My own personal peccadillo here, but I have difficulty giving credence to such 'big' ideas when they come wrapped in poor grammar. For the record, this is one of the appeals for me in regards Barack, i.e. his command of language. After the buffoonery of Bush in this regard, this is a change for the good in my humble opinion.
There you go again.  That sentence is improperly (and confusingly) structured. Yes, I get the idea, but even then a good share of America has always lived with serious disappointment so nothing is new in it.
Well, there ya go. Obama has instilled some hope in even you.  Run with it bro.  I gotta rash your stones here again however, as you have referred to 'facts' and yet you give none. 
As to my age, well, consider that I saw Jack Kennedy speak in my village when he ran against Nixon. In my opinion, it was my mistake not to support Kennedy.  My denouncements go to your forming your opinions on asserted facts not given in evidence.
Mmmm...sounds like our Constitution. >> Index Page - The U.S. Constitution Online - USConstitution.net
Sounds like politics, don't it? |
Lookie here, you can post on topic. Thank you and now with some understanding, especially regarding JFK, will answer accordingly.
I'll admit GWB, speaks like a Texan and drives the Grammar Elite crazy. I'll address the Obama factor, after his first news conference, to prompters and expecting some real issues. As for my grammar, the only 'D' I ever received was in related subjects, English, Grammar, Spelling etc...I should post some notes from editors that have corrected my errors with comment.
Your certainly not 106 or whatever your profile claims, but then I doubt many profiles are near correct. When JFK ran, I had already spent 4 years in the AF and with my second wife. JFK from a Historical viewpoint and IMO was a very good president and an inspiration to far to many people thinking Johnson, Carter and Clinton followed in his footsteps, including much of media. The closest through that period was Nixon, in both policy and foreign affairs.
On forums, no wouldn't call it politics but sometimes think totalitarian would apply. I don't post of 'Liberal Forums', but do read many and any comment seen objective can create a downpour of criticism. No less true on Conservative Forums'. We had a user name 'Turtle' on FC, who also had a problem with my grammar, but was somewhat a religious nut. Must not have been you...
