    Christian Persecution

    He doesn't care. He knows that only Christians will buy this book, so he panders to their fears. It works politically as well, and you can't find a better organized group than the religious right in the US. Free Christian-based advertising... tap into the fear and you can be a millionaire just...

    Wesley Clark for President

    The character attacks have begun folks. A poll comes out saying that Clark would beat Bush and the right wing media put out their pre-prepared content. Forget the context of Clark's comments, or whether or not he's a "legitimate" candidate (whatever that means). The poll does say something about...

    Bush Lied!!! The Gop Lied!!

    Didn't you see The Sum of All Fears... the answer is port security. And the ABC "in-depth" report a couple of weeks ago was a good example of this in real life terms. If we can't stop uranium from being imported (or smuggled) via the port of LA, then how can we feel secure at all? We can't, and...

    "Bowling for Columbine"

    Damn TM, Dick sure is spewing a lot of smack for a Friday. I'll tell you what, if the guy missed and he's reloading his MUSKET, I'll just bum rush the fool. Otherwise, I'll leave the ass kicking to you because I'm outgunned and I'll just assume he's a good shot. No point in finding out the hard way!

    "Bowling for Columbine"

    Not naive, just tongue in cheek. It's way too easy to get a gun in the US, that's my point. Just go to Wal Mart and ask the 15 year old behind the counter to give you the shotgun and some shells. Waiting periods and background checks are a good first step EVERYWHERE that guns are bought and...

    "Bowling for Columbine"

    And if you put 10 rats in a 10 gallon tank guess what happens:-) You're right though, it was worth the time.

    "Bowling for Columbine"

    All you have to do is make it more difficult to get guns. And just to keep on message, when all you have to do is open an account at a bank and you get a free gun, that's pretty sad. We need to close loopholes and make sure that guns can't get into the hands of wackos (that haven't been...

    "Bowling for Columbine"

    You missed the point of the documentary GG. His argument was that our society is screwed up by the gun culture, not that there are "too many" school attacks involving kids and guns. But I can understand why you think that Moore is annoying. Know it all's usually are and he can be pretty preachy...

    "Bowling for Columbine"

    I really felt sorry for "Moses" in the interview. He seems to be being used by the NRA, and the fact that much of his memory is shaky is sad to see. I generally like Moore, but I think that he goes a little far to prove his point sometimes. But what the hell was the NRA thinking when they...

    Immigration--Elites ignore voters

    Just claim that you require political asylum and Canada will let you in. And then you don't have to go to your immigration hearing because they're so weak on enforcement.

    Democatric debate last night

    Yeah, but Bush's hair is better, so he'd win the women's vote if they went "head to head". Edwards is the best of the bunch so far.

    Dixie Chicks have learning disability

    And Miller's a recent convert. These people are irrelevant unless they can state a valid argument. For the purposes of the unspectacular cable-news talk shows, popular is good enough. Why listen to the Dixie Chicks? Why even complain? They are just individuals with opinions that get media...

    Democatric debate last night

    One of those two will win. Lieberman doesn't inspire confidence when you hear him speak, Dean's a nutcase, Gephardt is politically over the hill (much like Kick 'em in the Dolies was in 96), and the rest aren't even close. And would someone please "accidentally" run into sharpton and grab at...

    CAPITALISM: I used to think the Republican side was clearly better...

    If only the estate tax applied only to "estates". People who are merely upper class shouldn't be as affected.

    CAPITALISM: I used to think the Republican side was clearly better...

    The error comes when we think that education only happens in the school systems. Most education systems serve as a simple daycare 80% of the time so that the parents can stay at work. If we'd just ease the tax burden and let people keep more of their money then there would be more parents...

    CAPITALISM: I used to think the Republican side was clearly better...

    I'd just amend that to say that defense isn't the ONLY problem. If you break down the budgets of the past few years, and look at funding for only education (by that I mean elementary, middle, high school, and college) vs. national defense you'll get the 15X number. And AAA is correct... I wasn't...

    CAPITALISM: I used to think the Republican side was clearly better...

    You're right, in this example I'd rather work the first hour of each day there, make 100K a year (and get taxed proportionally less by the office manager), then I'd go to the trading floor next door, make another 100K (same deal), head home where I have a nice setup and make the rest of my...

    Bush Lied!!! The Gop Lied!!

    Those were all Clinton's quotes:D Yet somehow he didn't think that it would be a good idea to go to war over it and then we had 911. I see the connection!:D
