USA... Right or Wrong?

A new poll shows 54 percent of Americans think the country is headed the Wrong way. Do you agree? Yes Or No and Your Reasons?

Yes, we're headed to the hellhole... we're in debt, thanks to bush's war games-

Look at ourselves, we can't stop butting in others business but we even can't focus on our problems yet we gotta look at other countries problems before we r helping ourselves first...


George Washington was right, look up his last words as he left presidency

At least other countries are going to Hell for chickening out the war against terrorism, taking bribes and oil. And, at least, USA is last in line to go to Hell!

Yep, We're heading to the WRONG path....meaning ' Hell '....There's soo many things I disagree on the Government plans and etc.....And MOST of all , I dislike the way our goverment is always getting into other coutries problems and being in the war etc....When the American Government SHOULD be taken care of OUR problems , OUR country yet , it doesn't seem like the Governement EVEN cares otherwise we weren't be where we are at TODAY...

in the beginning, i think while it wasn't our place, it'z a great thing that we got saddam hussein out of power.....he needed to go

when iraq needed to start a new government and all, we should've stayed there and helped them and given them ideas, but we shouldn't be tryin to force them to go the american democratic way this is what started upsetting a lot of iraqis we helped them, they're grateful for it, they still are.....but the fact that we're controlling them like we are is hurting them all the more

USA is truly wrong!!!!

We are survived with the Gov't who keep bullshitting on us repeatly for many years since 1776. Sigh... look like we are living in hidden hypocrite country.

Don't ever mix the government and religions in the first place.

USA's dumbest mistake are put "In God We Trust." on every coin and created Freedom of print/speech that make Porn and XXX are allowed everywhere with lackness of access.

Notice some of countries are very obsessive over our country for various of reasons. Really, look at USA, I feel disappointment in our country.

I think USA is more likely "Freedom of Fool." Because they created freedom of blabbbing. End up, freedom of speech cannot guarantee us to speak anything.

Guys, please keep it cool. If you want to argue about something else than this thread's intended topic, create your own thread and argue like crazy there, as long as it sticks to thread's topic.

Now to put my opinion in, since poll is not reliable i.e. where poll was polled, to what area was it polled, how baised was the poll targeted, how many out of total was it polled, how many of total out of entire population was it polled?

Personally, I think USA is leading to the wrong way, too liberal, too soft-heartened on crimes, eventually I won't be surprised if crimes overtake our law enforcement and becomes a nation.

I'm not an American, but isn't it becoming a more defensive country, and focusing more on anti-gun laws and anti-violence whilst spending heaps of money on defending the country against war/further attacks? Australia seems to have done the same as well.

I say we're going to Hell in a handbasket...

Simply said since the PNAC ( http://www.pnac.org ) along with the Idiot in Charge (Bush) took over America.

The neocons make me totally sick to hell about it.

To be honest I never liked Bush when he was running for President 4 yrs ago. I wanted Gore to win. But then Florida screwed up the votes and we had to wait for announcement. I felt like there was a trick to get Bush to become a President I am glad that he got Saddam But the point is our country is falling apart cuz he is paying more attention to Iraq then worrying about what we need. That became a big fall out. So Much have happened that nothing been fixed yet. Now that Bush is in everyone personal life business their bedroom. Which I wonder what does that have to do with our country? What about Schools and other important issues? New York hasn't been solved their mystery who really killed those people? did they find the Weapons or the bombs? That is unsolved still Bush is blowing that off and getting saddam cuz his father been wanted that for years while he was running for President the Only best President I ever like was John Kennedy he did so much for us he cared. and Bill Clinton did a real good job too. but his affair was none of my business like other people think it is a big deal at least he got the job done by putting our country first.

What happened to we the people? Lately it hasn't been we the people its more like Bush himself and his team are the people. Have he ever asked us if we want war? did he ever ask us if we had a thoughts about the war? He doesn't care all he cares about is himself what he wants if he wants something he will grab that Choice.

Hmm.. good point here that you made... Let's consider this scenario: How do we define defense against decisive terrorists that attack our civilized ground? Yet, our defense is very fragile, the only option to maintain defense is turn it into acting offensive. Preventive actions is what build better defense, hence to destroy terrorist farms would greatly help reduce the possible attacks, hence resulting into better defense. What are terrorist farms out there that we should seek? An act of war is to declare war on country or group that attacked our ground, hence, declare war on those who provide, shelter or sponsor terrorists. Within United States, drugs do kill people, and you're right, we should concentrate in our own problems. Again the defense is weak, hard to fight those who sell because they are constantly under influence from outside, where are drugs grown from? Drug farms! Same strategy, what other option do you recommend that we do with our defenses, to make it strong, rather than to turn it into acting offensive? Ideas has been diminished, hence the reason why we're fighting wars out there in the World, for the sake of our defense that can't be maintained without offensives.
