Re: CNN: "America outraged over Rodman's friend" How do you feel about Americas' frie

I'm horrified that we're in a predicament where our economic survival hinges on alliances with homicidal dictators who have more control over the US economy through OPEC than our own elected leaders. I'm disappointed that my fellow Americans can't see what a disastrous state of affairs that is. I'm baffled that the best solution many will only get behind is adding is adding a few percentage points to the global oil supply under the fallacy that if we drilled for more oil in Alaska and Canada, it would replace homicidal dictator oil when all it would do strengthen the homicidal dictator position by fortifying oil's oligopoly status over personal transportation, continue to finance terrorism and anti-American propaganda that inspires terrorist recruits and at best forces the Middle East into stronger alliances with China and Russia instead of us thus weakening the United States on the global stage all under a mission to thumb their noses at environmentalist wackos.

Do you just sit around in your US university dorm room, with half burnt American flags, your American hate, pictures of Al Quada "freedom fighters" and salivating at Western Women while making these anti-American posts?

So the US should only be friends with nice countries who can do nothing for us. Makes sense.

According to CNN "America is outraged over Rodman's friend in North Korea" how does America and the world feel about Americas friend Saudi Arabia who sent death row inmates to fight Syrian people? Obama invited Saudi king to the white house, Bush kissed him and held his had.

Why doesn't this establishment troll on CNN ask the world how people feel about American friends such as Saudi Arabia, who sent death row inmates to fight Syrian people? Obama invited this Saudi king to the white house, and Bush kissed him and held his hands:

I feel that if we shouldn't be dealing with other countries whose values counter those in our Constitution. So it is kind of hard to be outraged over Denis Rodman trying to be diplomatic with a North Korean Dictator when our government is in bed with other scum.

Exactly. Very little wrong wrong with that. Do we honestly expect geopolitics to be this idealistic? You tolerate what you dislike to the extent that you feel you are being compensated enough. Most nations work that way, and so shall we.

No, the U.S. can be friends with whomever, however, it's a little hypocritical for the U.S. to ask the world to fight tyranny and oppression when the U.S. is doing business and supporting many of them.
 
Re: CNN: "America outraged over Rodman's friend" How do you feel about Americas' frie

Hey OP, a few of us here still prefer reading to video, so could you please post
some linkable text to this story on whatever the hell Saudi Arabia is doing in Syria?
Not that either side in Syria would bring a smile to the face of Thomas Jefferson,
or do you, OP, know something I don't know? No way.

And whatever it is SA is doing in Syria it can probably be forgiven as long as it
continues to be our resolute ally in the ongoing war against AQ and other similar
night creatures, who are now our most dangerous enemy, by far, possibly with the
exception of...

...of, you guessed it, North Korea! Yes, North Korea, a nuclear power ruled by
homicidal maniacs, who would think nothing of using their WMD if they thought
could gain from doing so.

But the most noteworthy thing about NK is its unceasing, remorseless abuse of
its own citizens. It is the is the worst in the world, and has been so now for decades.
As bad as Taliban and Mugabe are, NK is worse.

And that is why OP should not muddy the water on behalf of that ignorant bastard
Dennis Rodman and the other ignorant bastards who went with him on this disgusting
junket. Even if Saudi Arabia is as bad as OP makes out, it has nothing to do with the
evil that North Korea is, and the evil that Dennis Rodman is for being North Korea's parrot, lap dog, and toad.

Then why didn't you choose North Korea to live in? It's not too late, you know. Why not just migrate there?

Personally, as an Isolationist, I don't believe that any of the three individual American citizens mentioned in the poll should be having contact with anyone outside the United States. As for what the Saudi King does with his prisoners.... that's an issue for the people of his nation to deal with, not us.

Americans shouldn't talk to people from other countries?
 
Re: CNN: "America outraged over Rodman's friend" How do you feel about Americas' frie

None.

Rodman is an idiot trying to stay relevant and profit off his NK nonsense. He had huge money problems in the past, IIRC.

Bush and Obama were never friends with the Saudi king. Those are fake, politician grins. They have to keep the relationship afloat, it's called having some level of tact.

So we should do business with dictator? We should line that dictator's pockets with money by engaging in what ever trade agreements with that country so that he or she can use those dollars to build up their military which may one day be used against us and to further continue to oppress their people?

Do you infer then that the Bush/Saud lip lock was a homosexual context and not political. HMMM. I never thought of that. I figured Saud was straight.
 
Re: CNN: "America outraged over Rodman's friend" How do you feel about Americas' frie

The kiss photo is a fake, photochopped. Taken from the video of the event where Bush leans in and whispers in the King's ear.

Rodman, we should pull his citizenship the next time he lands in NK. Let the asshole be their problem.
