As you know, I live in a mansion, drive limos, and wear yellow bug goggles. Therefore, I am an expert on poverty. No, not poverty in Ireland, poverty in Africa.

I encourage all of YOU to give all YOUR money away to help the starving. Yes, we are suckered into making LOANS to end starvation, now we are in the cycle to forgive those loans to end starvation. In 5 years, I will be asking for more loans.

Eventually through this process, we ALL will be poor and starving instead of demanding people stop reproducing with 6 billion on the planet. But who cares? That time is a long way off and we can pretend in the meantime. So please donate your money. I have to go, my caviar is getting room temperature.

A philosopher walked by? He'd quote the above and walk away, the man would starve.

A Republican walked by? He' tell the man to learn to fish, but not give him a fishing pole.

A Democrat walked by? He'd take a fish from someone else and give it to the man and say "Vote for me, aren't I wonderful."

A bureaucrat walked by? He’d set up a program to give the man a fish every day. He’d run the program and take 5 fish per day for himself.

Anybody got any other scenarios?

What gets me the most about the gay marriage issue is that I have yet to see a valid argument against it. Everyone who speaks out against it presents arguments that have no solid merit to them. The religious arguments against it don't necessarily count as the United States is not a theocracy and Christianity must sit in the back seat with all the other religions (Such as Islam, Wicca, etc)...nevertheless these arguments wouldn't have much merit anyway as banning gay marriage is contradictory to the message of acceptance Christianity is supposed to promote. The Procreation argument is invalid because sterile people can get married. The "homosexuality isn't natural, it's a choice" argument has been based on hatred to begin with (The ex-gay movement derives most their disproven pseudo-science from a quack named Paul Cameron, who also advocates the mass homicide of the LGBT community). It also seems to me that the largest force driving the entire anti-gay movement is in fact hate.

Like you know how foreign TV shows are way censored? And how some sites are shut down on the internet?

As a conservative, I sometimes agree with this, but other times it seems a hassle, because in Anime, you sometimes miss the important plot parts.



I know it's "protecting" our youth...what do you think?

People do not get equally upset when older men become fathers. Healthcare has outraced evolution; there is every reason to believe that a woman in her fifties or even sixties will live long enough to see her child into adulthood. Since these women are using donated ova, there is no increased risk to the baby for Down's syndrome or other maternal-age related disorder. A woman of any age accepts risks to herself when she goes through pregnancy and childbirth; with IVF she is altogether aware of these risks. Shouldn't we be celebrating because science finally allows women and men to have real equality in determining there family options? Is this just some kind of religious thing? I really don't understand it.

More crime, more drugs, more child abuse, more divorce, violent children. Unsafe to allow children out of sight, porn available to all, children w/o parents, single moms struggling.

What have we gained. Seems a lot of freedom has been lost.

Over 3000 people, make that civilians, from many different countries; were crushed and burned to death by Arab murderers.
WHILE THEY WERE AT WORK MINDING THEIR OWN BUSINESS, How would you like to die on the job ?
Many were children, read the list of women and little children on those airplanes.
Americans, especially the Democratic party menbers, seems to take the attitude of - Oh, that was a long time ago, its not relevant today -its not nice to think about, those nice people didn't really mean it- I forgive them. WHAT GIVES?

people are constantly saying trash like "the US just wants to dominate more countries" and "bush is fighting this war to kill innocent muslim babies". what the hell is going on?

yea, bush is a knob-head, but he isnt triyng to commit genocide or trying to profit from the war either. how could he? that is the most uneducated asinine thing i have ever heard.

what makes you guys think the US is thinking world domination? thats the exact opposite of everything this country stands for and the exact opposite of what our soldeirs have fought and died for. yean we put our nose in everybodys business, but would you rather have us seclude ourself and be completely oblivious to everything that goes on outside our booarders?

never before have i heard people say such stupid things...

The Israelis gave the palestinians otonomi and land,
The Palestinians thanked them with more bombs.

Immagine that whe (America) had Gaza in New Jersey, Shooting rockets at NY, then demanding to get Long Island in order to stop shooting.
After we give then L.I., they break their promise, keep on shooting and demand Connecticut in order to stop shooting.

Immagine our kids going to summer camp and never returning because they were killed by a suiside bomber for a good cause. There is no such thing.

The Palestinians are a nation invented by the Arab countries and the Muslim nation in order to whipe Israel off the map of the middle east and then take over the rest of the world.

Fortunately for us, the border with theMuslims is in the middle east and not here. We should support Israel in order for this border not to come closer to home.
