Trump: Look at what’s going on with your gasoline prices. They’re going to go to $5, $6, $7 and we don’t have anybody in Washington that calls OPEC and says, “Fellas, it’s time. It’s over. You’re not going to do it anymore.” I don’t know if you saw yesterday, Saudi Arabia came out and said very strongly there’s plenty of oil. “We’re going to cut back.” You know what cutting back means? They’re going to drive up the price even further.
Stephanopoulos: So, what would you do to back up that threat?
Trump: Oh, it’s so easy George. It’s so easy. It’s all about the messenger. They wouldn’t even be there if it wasn’t for us. If it weren’t for us, they wouldn’t be there. These 12 guys sit around a table and they say, “Let’s just screw the United States.” And frankly, the rest of the world.
…
Stephanopoulos: And so finish this sentence. “If you don’t produce more oil…”
Trump: Look. I’m going to look ‘em in the eye and say, “Fellas, you’ve had your fun. Your fun is over.”
…
Stephanopoulos: So, you would threaten to take away that [security] protection?
Trump: Oh, absolutely. Absolutely
I agree with Donald
I am Leader of all The Atheists in the world - FACT.
Of course, keeping peace in the Middle East has nothing to do with affordable oil. WTF was I thinking?!
these are things we think we know
these are feelings we might even share
these are thoughts we hide from ourselves
these are secrets we cannot lay bare.

You can tell how fearful they are of US threats by the deference they pay to the President....

If the Republicans are stupid enough to put those two together on the 2012 ticket, they deserve an extra four years in the wilderness.

Unfortunately, I agree with this. My mother is often frustrated when she comes to me with a doom-and-gloom scenario should the "wrong" people be voted into office. I just tell her we deserve what we get.
The people on both sides of the political aisle will continue to be fools as long as the voting public can't tell the difference between rhetoric and arguments. And as long as these same people can't see the problem with having a two-sided political aisle.

Being polite and following the customs of a foreign culture is supposed to be deemed a respectful act and one of diplomacy. Americans expect others to assimilate to our customs but criticize our own leader for doing the same in a different land. Yes, as far as a world leader anywhere else is concerned - he is the country's top official and should be payed respect from a dignified guest. We in America would have it no other way, so we should hold our leader to high standards of diplomatic courtesy as the President represents all of us.
Don't go near that elevator - that's just what they want us to do... trap us in a steel box and take us down to the basement.

What's you pont? That diplomacy leads to war? That we shouldn't be diplomatic to dictators because or country could go to war with them eventually, anyway?
Do you see the non-sequitur in that reasoning or are you purposely short-sighted?
