I have been onto websites like that racist Stormfront ones which advocates the repatriation of all ethnic minorities out of countries such as Britain, and for Britain to remain a purely white country. with the ascession of many Eastern European countries to the EU we are now seeing an influx of Polish, Romanian, etc migrants to Britain seeking work. You would expect there to be a certain degree of satisfaction since people such as the Stormfronters have stated that they only want white people in Britain, but now they are moaning about that as well saying that Eastern Europeans are taking away work from the British and causing wages to be cut.
I agree that Britian has become an overcrowded country given our small land mass. But for me this just indicates that facists only want a white Britain which allows white western european people through its border [ because Western Europe is of course more prosperous]...

Ray Nagin has been re-elected as the mayor of New Orleans. A recent statement he has made is one that states, why are Americans so quick in sending aid($$) in the rebuilding of the twin towers but are not as quick to sending aid($$) to New Orleans. Last night, on Fox News(www.foxnews.com), there was an argument about how Ray Nagin always has a "fancy" for turning certain situations into a subject of racism. (white vs. black), However, he didn't say white people, he said Americans.?? So, what are your views on this matter?

I've seen a truck that says, Police, parking control. Can they give other kinds of tickets besides parking tickets? For example-speeding tickets?

The rules of Conservatism, inbreeding, and screwing the working class.

1. You must believe that the nations current 8-year prosperity was due to the work of Reagan and Bush, but yesterday's gas prices are all Clinton's fault
2. You have to believe that those privileged from birth achieve success all on their own.
3. You have to be against all Government programs, but expect Social Security checks on time.
4. You have to believe that AIDS victims deserve their disease, but smokers with lung cancer and overweight people with heart disease don't deserve theirs.
5. You have to believe everything Rush Limbaugh says even when he's on dope.
6. You have to believe that god hates homosexuality, but loves the death penelty
7. You have to be against government interference in business, until your oil company, or Savings and Loan is about to go broke and you beg for a government bail out.
8. You have to believe in prayer in schools, as long as you don't pray to Allah or Buddha

Our institutions have failed to produce objective journalists, we only get editorial and left wing propaganda (google PEW research on subject).

This is not a conspiracy, its just that "idealogues" are attracted to Jounalism as a major because they want to shape public perception. More pragamtic types go to engineering or medicine.

However, since we simply cannot get any objective journalists to read news to the mainstream audience, shouldnt we strip away this facade of integrity?

All we need to produce this simpletons is a communications tech school. We definely dont need to spend anywhere near the federal funds.

If I could design a curriculum, I would require science and heavy logical/critical thinking skills in addition. In fact, I would require a test to get a license and the test would be pure logic. I guarentee a death to simplistic "war for oil" platitudes under my system.

I happened to slip over this banana, this is what Bush said, this is quiet recent.

"No, I don't know that Atheists should be considered as citizens, nor should they be considered as patriots. This is one nation under God."

-George H.W. Bush, 41st president of the United States

Ohhh riight, i get it Mr Bush. I hear you loud son. I also see you have a master plan, to rid America of those Atheists? So What's on your mind man? should we gather them all up and Gas those critters to death or what? How about we start with NASA?

This question has to do with debating.I went to a debate at a University. A defense lawyer argued for the legalization of some illegal drugs. The defense lawyer stands to loose clients if drugs are legalized. So, she was arguing against her own self-interest. On the other side, a law enforcement agent argued against legalizing drugs. But, obviously, it would be against his best interest if drugs were legalized. So, was his argument tainted by his self-interest in preserving the drug enforcement industry? I have read some Police Chiefs and even Police Officers argue for legalization. To me that is a very compelling argument. Is there anyone in this forum, who is a law enforcement officer, who would argue for legalization? Either way, why or why not? In debates, in general, does arguing against your own self-interest make the argument more compelling than taking a position that favors your own self-interest?

Which is an increase of 23 percent over the same period last year, the government news agency Notimex reported Friday.

Remittances have become an increasingly important source of income for the country in recent years, surpassing tourism. They represent Mexico's second-largest source of foreign income after oil.

They topped $20 billion for the first time in 2005, a 17 percent increase from the previous year.

Where is the unemployment insurance for Mexican workers?
Instead of doing the hard work to benefit Mexican citizens, Fox is relying on America's natural sympathy for the underdog. He hopes that gullible American politicians will ignore the bottom 25 percent of families that have been hurt by low wages in the U.S., just as he has ignored them in Mexico.

Lost in translation:

Experts confirm that Iran's president did not call for Israel to be 'wiped off the map'. Reports that he did serve to strengthen western hawks.

So do us all a favor, please stop the deception and lies. You say the Media is full of ****, and yet you believe and preach the information which you choose or blindly choose to believe as fact, to fuel your hate against a nation, which has done no harm to you, but rather your nation doing more harm to it. Check on Iran’s history.

Research the facts and then make bold statements as to whether he really did imply Israel should be wiped off the map.
