"I want a leader who the rest of the world is afraid of" |
|
This came off a parenting discussion group I was subscribed to.
Most of the people there agreed with it. How scary are these people?
I am sickened by them, just sickened.
I am dreading the holidays with my freeper in-laws.

1. Well we have one . . . |
|
the rest of the world thinks is a fool.
By they way, what is with all this leader stuff that they have been selling. Presidents are citizens -- they aren't "our glorious leaders."

2. The rest of the world no longer fears * |
|

3. Fear is their bread and butter |
|
- fear of two guys kissing
- fear they won't be able to buy a gun
- fear their daughter will marry a black dude
- fear that the A-rabs will take over
- fear that their truck ain't macho enough
etc. etc.
Because in their lives there is something to be scared of literally behind every door, bush and window, they assume that fear drives others.

6. Afraid? I don't think that's the sentiment. |
