  1. It's panic speech, my friend. You're just terrified by the Black guy. Don't be. Don't let racism distort your perception. Hell if you think a president is that important, you're more lost than I'd imagined. You're complaining about NDAA but I never heard you when they signed the PATRIOT Act. Do you understand what a dictatorship is? As for "Obamaboon", I won't dignify that with much response aside from telling you it's childish & adds nothing to the discussion.

  2. An injustice anywhere is an injustice everywhere. Nobody is telling you what's wrong because you're not powerful. The problem is that powerful are corruptible. The powerless have no voice. It's not about being thought police in other countries. It's about trading with people who exploit their labor & thus have a commercial advantage. If you think that because they're in caves, they're not sophisticated enough to know what they're doing, you haven't been watching history unfold since... forever.

  3. No 1 likes to be told what to do. I'm sure Libyans didn't enjoy despotism. I know Liberians didn't like their dictatorship either. But that's beside the point. The point is that we have Korea accepting aid, not feeding its people & still trading. That's problematic because it interferes with the free market (that's not saying that I totally support the "free market"). You see, it's not just about thought police. It's a practical issue.

  4. America is light years from approaching a dictatorship. That's panic speech. You'll give a shit about Libya & Iraq when every product & service in the country has a hyper-inflated price. And let's be honest, having more control on price through means of exploiting labor. How does labor get exploited? By restricting human rights. That's not a real free market. That's why we're forced to be Earth-police sometimes. It's not 'cause we're thought-police. It's a means of protecting our interests here
