Christmas music is filled with joy, peace, and good will, everything a liberal wants, yet they hate the word "Christmas". Rap music is filled with hate, violence, and disgusting lyrics yet the libs say that's freedom of expression. Are libs hypocrites? Merry CHRISTmas!

What judges the take of actors comments regarding politics? Are they welcome when the issues on the ballot concern them the most, like Michael J. Fox or the late Christopher Reeves concerning stem-cell research? Are they any more or less welcome when they decide they approve or disapprove of a certain political figure, abroad or in their own country, as Sean Penn has done recently? What about their issues concerning major political figures or events, such as the issue of Darfur being considered a "Hollywood matter", or, as I see it from so many, a meaningless issue only cared about by people with their face in the media? Finally, does how much political knowledge they have influence suppport for their views, or is it on a "you suppor what I think is the right thing, regardless of your comparative knowledge on the issue" kind of deal? Or are they just eye candy who's statements mean nothing as long as they remain in front of the camera?

I know the yanks are both crazy and crazy about guns but, does there actually exist a law in the American Legal system that pardons you with a gun crime if you have been found to have been eating twinkies before you shoot someone?
Please don't tell me that“Twinkies Defense”actually exists please don't....

For me a Republican was always in support of the following:

1. Balanced Budgets/Fiscal Conservativism
2. States Rights/non intervention of Federal Gov.
3. America focused, non/interventionist.
4. Small Government.

It seems like the big names have all jumped ship. William F. Buckley, John McGlaughlin, George Will
Even Bob Barr the man who lead Clinton's impeachment is now a Liberatarian.

A friend of mine had an incident where he went to someones house and the police were called. Once the police got there they realized that he had a warrant out for his arrest. He fled on foot, but left his car parked. They impounded his car. My understanding is that the cops took his car since he ran, and wanted to take away any other means of transportation. Is this reasonable, or were his rights violated?

I'm thinking back in time when Saddam lit up the oil fields in Kuwait and surrounding area's, hundreds of oil fields were lit. All that smoke that was sent into the atmosphere could not have been healthy. Apparently the smoke was so dense that it obliterated the sun for days on end. Aren't these same emissions being the cause for Global warming trend today?

This was added during the Eisenhower Admin in the 50s. I don't have to say it that way. The original version was just fine.

I need examples of liberals also doing this,
The sort of thing I mean is calling the inheritance tax a death tax, call any welfare program socialist, or when talking about distribution functions( which is a mathimatical term) for income or wealth saying they are earned not distributed,

The safe rooms that are being suggested by ruth kelly to be the answer to domestic violence must be very expensive. Surely we can do better than making vitims of this crime hide away. If they are in that much danger, can the police not arrest the partner responsible! I believe we should support the victim 100% but that support should be to remove the problem not treat the symptoms! What does everyone else think?
