It's been sad to see the recent change in IPU.

[Tim]

He used to love the country I love, but now he just thinks it's a big mistake. Those of you who suggested that even the greatest among us would fall... you were right, and I'm sorry to see it happen. I'll miss the old IPU, because I know he at least USED to love our country.

You know I just noticed that those folded towels in your avatar are exactly the colors we have in our basement bathroom and on the walls. Not surprising since we have a Redskins theme, but still, your avatar makes me think of drying my just cleaned hands with something plush. It is a good association.

Folded towels? That's a Rothko!

Seriously, though, if that's the palette you used, nice choice. It's a fantastic color combination.

Correction. Il Pad doesn't think America is a mistake, he thinks she's dead.

Hermeneutics, Tim. You can't control how your reader/viewer responds to things.

He must believe it was resurrected, then (perhaps by the recent presidential election, which breathed life back into our country), because now he thinks it's a mistake.

I honestly don't think it matters who the President is. Nothing ever changes. For all the hand wringing that goes on, my life seems to be the same regardless of who is in office. I guess Bush is guilty of the death of hundreds of thousands of people in the middle east, and Obama is guilty of stealing from the rich and giving to the poor, but I haven't noticed any difference in my life. I think Americans waste entirely too much time worrying about things they don't have the courage to fix.

I agree with you in large part. However, this is a thread about how sad it is that IPU apparently thinks America is a big mistake.

I don't think he thinks America is a mistake, he thinks Obama is responsible for the death of america. On the bright side, if America truly does suck, Mexico will have to deal with us crossing their border for better opportunities.

It's clear that you haven't read any of his posts lately. He thinks it's a mistake.

He says that America is a mistake in every single post lately.

And Canada is still our hat. There's always that.

You nailed it, UD. America may be a mistake (per IPU), but at least we don't live in Uzbekistan.

[The_Tick]

I will agree with IPU.

I am less proud of being an American every day. Because it is getting worse and not better.

No way. Those damn Commies give away health care.
