Crisis = Government having to make a decision.

Failure = Government making a decision.

Thanks everyone. I knew it would bring a few choice remarks, but yes, they may be funny to laugh, but i agree that those words are so true.....

Americans are truly weird... I agree that such words CAN mean something bad (but I can easily imagine the opposite situation), but that you feel it is more scary than e. g. "Don't move I have a gun" or a thousand other sentences is beyond incomprehensible.

Will Rodgers said. " It's a good thing we don't get all the government we pay for". Think he had a good point. That was in the 30s

Jan, I have that covered. The last person who said that found that I had a gun too, he did not fair too well. But I as an American am weird. If I were British or Austrailian I would probably be weird too, I'm just that kind of guy, and come to think of it, I like me, just the way God made me.

quote=Jan F. Rasmussen Americans are truly weird.... (show quote)


I have yet to meet anyone who is not weird in some way, especially if their weird is not my kind of weird. Or one man's weird is another man's normal. BTW Jan I do think that your statement about Americans is pretty weird. Or how about weird is as weird does?
