That line was the link to hope. Hope that we would eventually find a way to common ground in our basic Humanity.
It's why I love that film.
I love fantasy.

Actually I believe Superman was challenging Lois, the cynical reporter, to see that common ground and basic humanity already existed. She just needed to open her eyes a little.

Too much time in the desert of the Mega Sun?

You are Rappy.

Too simple. I hardly have to try.



Maybe you SHOULD start trying, because you're wrong, once again.

But enjoy your self made delusion. It's fun to watch.

Lois Lane: (laughs) You're gonna end up fighting every elected official in this country!



As a kid I never really got this exchange.
Now I do.

Do YOU?



I'm wondering if there is anything to get.....

No wonder "America" is laughable....

We all grew up believing in some unattainable Utopia.



WE THE PEOPLE, must learn to evolve.

WE THE PEOPLE, have lived very cheaply for decades at the expense of every third-world country we could exploit.

Short of some new planet of idiots we can exploit, WE THE PEOPLE, as WE know WE, are done....


Shit's getting very real very quickly. I'nnit' ?

My prediction is today's middle class American family will be Eastern Europe's middle class family by 2020.

But what do I know?

I'm just the Stupid Drunk Guy that needs help.

Don't come to me for help when that day comes.

Do Right, Be Right. :)

That's a giant load of go-se straight from the far Left collectivist proggies and the pulpit of Jerimiah Wright.

Rather than start a new thread, I thought I'd put this here. This is in regards to the landing at Normandy and the 'allies' (Russia excluded) 'winning' WWII. I didn't know the details before and they are astounding:

"The Germans lost World War II at the Battle of Stalingrad, which was fought from August 23, 1942 until February 2, 1943, when most of the remnants of the powerful German Sixth Army surrendered, including 22 generals.

Nineteen months previously the largest invasion force ever assembled on planet earth invaded Russia across a one thousand mile front. Three million crack German troops; 7,500 artillery units, 19 panzer divisions with 3,000 tanks, and 2,500 aircraft rolled across Russia for 14 months."





OONJERAH - We are too dumb to live and smart enough to wipe ourselves out.
"You, who live in any kind of comfort or convenience, do not know how these people can survive these things, do you? They will endure because there is no immediate escape from endurance. Some will die, the rest must live."

A good deal sooner I should think.
You're right, our collective way of life in the US of A is over. Anyone not already into their 20's is going to face a far different world than us older folk did.
But I've always seen this coming. It was a simple equation to me.
