....because corporations are sending jobs and manufacturing over to third-world countries where wages are below our poverty level - but notice the CEO's don't accept third-world salaries for themselves! - will the US wake-up and be able to reverse this trend, or are we doomed to become the new third-world, while China and India "steal" are standard of living?

Did anyone hear about the whole Oil thing with one of the Kennedy’s (I think maybe it was Ted) you know, the guy who gives oil to heat peoples houses? People who can't afford to heat their houses. He gets it from Venezuela, there, is a leader that mocks our president and speaks ill of our county yet still we get cheap oil from him.
**In the commercial they actually thank "Venezuela" for help of supplying oil.

I think that if a man has nothing to feed his family and steels a loaf of bread to feed them, then I will not judge him.
I feel the same way here. No one else will help the needy to get heat. I don’t see anyone else helping the poor.

What are your thoughts on this?

..have nothing to do with each other? The majority of Americans believe we need to bring the troops home - the majority believe that the Iraqi War is not related to Al-quieda and those that attacked the World Trade Center on 9-11!! Why don't the Republicans? Arrogance, stupidity, or both?

Im just curious what the rest of the country feels like when they are watching their local late night news, and a story about a fight or shooting that took place in a school happens and the news interviews some students and apon their mouth opening to answer the reporter...that "stupid" voice is quickly heard. Where the young adult talks sort of like..."i was like oh my god, i couldnt believe they done that to her." Im in L.A., now that just might have something to do with that, cause the majority of the students thay I see this problem is with hispanic students. But at the same time not just hispanics, other races as well. But how about you, have you seen what I am describing here? I ask this because its just so sad, because these kids are...sadly the future of our world...Im 23...and just very curious about other peoples input.

Just wondering, it seems a long time to not be able to find any photos of Sulejman Talovic online. He was in SLC since he was about 9 years old, it's hard to believe no one has come up with a yearbook photo or anything.

I'm trying to find out the name of a documentary i saw several years ago. It was a man and women in a large sound proof room, and they were given challenges to create different sound effects from objects they have in the room. I'm in a recording arts program, and when i told my professer about it, he wanted me to find it to show in class. If any one knows the name of the program, or even the people in it that would be great. Thanks

I believe it was on PBS, I'm not 100% sure though

I'm writing an paper for a class on the 9/11 Truth movement's sudden explosion from internet viral video and into mainstream media. I decided on this topic after reading an essay on the altering of America's collect mind by the control of various media outlets.

You can read the essay here:

If you are not a reader, here is the video

http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=3188377245943487892&q=boogieman+productions&hl=en

Of coure there are people who hate 9/11 truthers, but why? Obviously most people would say "It's because they are kooks." I need for people to expound to why there is so much hatred for these groups.

I have come up with a few categories:
1 You believe the government's version of September 11
2 You know the govenment's version is bs but the videos annoy you
3 You debunk truthers as sport
Add your own category

Germany never attacked the U.S.

Iraq never attacked the U.S.

In 4 years of war 430,000 Americans died to fight Nazi Germany.

In these 4 years, 3,200 have died to end Saddam's dictatorship.

The U.S. rebuilt all former enemies of WWII.

Money is being spent to rebuild Iraq.

The Allied Powers gravitated to control of resource-rich nations/regions.

Bush is "getting Iraq's oil".

Would we be better off today, had our power never been applied to affect WWII?

I'm not trying to be called racist or anti-religionist or anything here. The real question might be is it good he didn't have a Bomb? or maybe the real question is haven't they been warning us this would/will happen? or is the real question who is the enemy within?
