Our 21st century is ridiculous

Read the Holy Bible, mankind seemed so ridiculous, some have said.

What will we say about our century or our generation's contribution to it?

WTF does the bible have to do with anything? This thread doesn't make sense.

George W Bush being sworn in as president is the worst thing of the 21st century.

worst thing was the spetember 11th attacks 🙁 im not american but so many families must have lost their relatives

R.I.P

If Bush wasn't president it would have been avoided.

I hate Shrub too but that statement was just lame.

Well how about scientific, industrial and economic advancement? I'm pretty sure that we've contributed quite a bit, and will continue to do so.

That was certainly not the worst thing.

Iraq, Katrina, general bad weather, the US 2004 election, George Bush, other terrorist attacks, WW3 coming near?

Why? Bush was a lame duck before 9/11.

Bush was no lame duck, unless of course you're addressing his personality. But, Bush was certainly no lame duck president. Even after the '06 elections, he still hasn't been treated as a lame duck. He gets everything he wants.

That's because he threatens to hold his breath and cry if he doesn't.

Before 9/11. He did virtually nothing, but watch things go wrong. Then he went on vacation.

That doesn't make him a lame duck

In American politics, the term Lame Duck means a president who has, through the victory of the other party in an election, lost his ability to push his agenda. This president, as Bardock pointed out, still gets what he wants. So, in america at least, the term does not apply.

Lame, now that's a term that applies.
