Republicans Take Over House Ready to Spar With Obama

Pls select more ethical people with the right moral compass who don't need to resort to black campaigning to become popular and controversial lest China becomes unstoppable because USA no longer stands for democracy and civil rights and degraded into petty domestic fighting among themselves.

And people in South Asia depend on USA to bring counterbalance to the growing Chinese influence in the region. The Chinese couldn't care less about democracy or human rights so if they have big influence in South Asia you can bet democracy and civil and human rights will go the way of the dodo birds. . . fast.

I'm not saying that USA is the true champion of democracy and civil and human rights but at least it is still the better of the two evil.

Stop the bickering and get your act together! or the world will see a complete Chinese South Asia in 5 years. And to think that I happen to be living in South Asia .

For some reason, this comic came to mind earlier:




In the end, nothing will change, SSDD. i'd bet my bottom dollar on that.

I think that would be a safe bet to make, and it neatly sums up the bottom line in the discussion. Meet the new boss, same as the old boss.

EDIT: Sorry for the triple posting, everybody.

What you should be sorry for is shamelessly plagiarizing Pete Townsend, you shameless plagiarizer, you!

Not really, as I'm sure everybody got it. I just wanted to make sure.

The US really has no chance at curbing Chinese expansion (assuming that direct military expansion is out of the picture)

Appeasement is the only logical way to go for the american government, since the economical ties between china and america are just too deep.

I would rather bet on internal problems curbing Chinese expansion, than the US

Thanks for the insight when I check on the media appeasement has yet to become US official policy. Maybe being more accommodating but appeasement is not just yet. It just hasn't reached that low point yet. If it did the US would cease being superpower.

What worried me is seeing the degradation of US politics in general that more and more dirty tactics being employed and that US is divided politically into the two political parties that launched themselves into a political feud and war. It used to be for the country's best interest and everybody knows their place and their responsibility but now people are vying and fighting for their personal or party political gain with patriots being replaced by opportunists. Dishonesty is everywhere.

that is so true
personal gains are put above the interests of the people
