ALex, I'm sorry. I held back for a while there. Not sure how I did it. But this is crap. You have zero concept of history and need to burn your Rockefeller text books. You are spitting up cliches to such an extent that I don't even know how to address them...

Don't do me any favors, bub.

One man's point is another man's... point. I fail to see how this is a convincing argument in either direction.

Are you quoting a Vin Diesal movie?

No. And shame on you for saying I don't know my history. I was quoting (well, paraphrasing, but whatever) somebody you may actually have heard of.
Quote:
Under one such marker lies a young man—Martin Treptow—who left his job in a small town barber shop in 1917 to go to France with the famed Rainbow Division. There, on the western front, he was killed trying to carry a message between battalions under heavy artillery fire.
We are told that on his body was found a diary. On the flyleaf under the heading, "My Pledge," he had written these words: "America must win this war. Therefore, I will work, I will save, I will sacrifice, I will endure, I will fight cheerfully and do my utmost, as if the issue of the whole struggle depended on me alone."
The crisis we are facing today does not require of us the kind of sacrifice that Martin Treptow and so many thousands of others were called upon to make. It does require, however, our best effort, and our willingness to believe in ourselves and to believe in our capacity to perform great deeds; to believe that together, with God's help, we can and will resolve the problems which now confront us.
And, after all, why shouldn't we believe that? We are Americans. God bless you, and thank you.

Can you guess who?

Are you calling us spoiled? Which ones of us and why? You don't know shit about anyone here. Stop quoting movies. |
Yes, I am. I don't need to name names. Just look for the loudest whiniest among you, and you'll know exactly who I'm talking about. The people that would disassemble this country and reform it in their image to reflect their cowardice and spite for the working upper class.
