Speculative biology is simultaneously a science and form of art in which one speculates on the possibilities of life and evolution. What could the world look like if dinosaurs had never gone extinct? What could alien lifeforms look like? What kinds of plants and animals might exist in the far future? These questions and more are tackled by speculative biologists, and the Speculative Evolution welcomes all relevant ideas, inquiries, and world-building projects alike. With a member base comprising users from across the world, our community is the largest and longest-running place of gathering for speculative biologists on the web.

Are you plausible?

Let's see if I can distill this:

Americans hate Obama for some unsubstantiated reason. He's called some names that violate TOS, compared to Tony Blair (making the remarks derogatory against two people now. A potshot is taken at a member of the this community in response to said derogatory material. The conversation sways into what a terrible politician Sarah Palin is, and topped off with a completely irrelevant post for the sake of humor.

Seriously, people...

Yes, actually. That's an honest, open statement of opinion relevant to the topic. I didn't get any of that from your other post.

My point is that Americans are disapointed in obama because, 'there hasn't been enough change' What? like you want ONE PERSON, to fix the economy and a stalemated war? You want the economy back on track? Its called Keynesian economics people, if you want more money spend more money, saving more money in a recession actually makes the recession worse, everyone has to fix the economy not just the guy at the top. What's bad about Health Care? Tax Raise? Fine, sure , americans obviously love being the laughing stock of most countries because they're having a debate about Health Care, the main argument against is that people will lose money. Wait, you want to have to pay hundreds of thousands of dollars in the event of an accident because you DON'T want to lose money? *claps slowly* well, well, looks like New Zealand won't be winning the 'your the laughing-stock of western nations' this year

If I don't expect one person to fix the economy (or any of a country's ills) in the blink of an eye, does that make me not an American? If I'm not American, what am I?

If I am in fact an American, does that mean I love being a laughing stock? Should I be insulted by your frustrated sarcasm?

Of Course.

Obama is a smooth talker politician, but he is still not a very bad president in my opinion. The American political system is what's truly wrong.
Korea's politicians are simply rotting!!

Hey you forgot my snipe at republicanism.

The problem with Obama is of expectation. He's a decent president from what I've seen, but people were not expecting decent, they wanted great.

Wait what a potshot was taken at me?

Anyway yes KP we need to get those jackets ;)
Also i am fully aware that americans arent dumb, its a stupid stereotype. How can i say that americans are dumb when 50% of this forum are american and all are far more intelligent than me. (I have been wondering about the demographics of this forum for a long time). I guess Barrack Obama must be deeply hated by some of the more backwards racists also coupled with the fact that he seems very left wing for american politics. In England he would just be another young labour orator who everyone would think big deal.

And in Burma he would be in prison or not in Burma. Be grateful for all those "Blair clones", would you rather a general was put in power by the military, which was forcing everyone to be Church of England and slowly but steady wiping out the Scots, Irish and Welsh and generally stealing everyone's liberty?
