In the 70's it was the next ice age and killer bees.
In the 80's it was nuclear winter.
In the 90's it was global warming, which has morphed into "climate change" (a convenient catch-all). Left wing rants are welcome, as they are quite humourous

As an Englishman it has always amazed me how the USA take credit for WW2.
To the best of my knowledge the USA didnt take part for 2 years whilst britain stood alone.
Why is it that Americans stood and let it happen, whilst lining their own pockets

In the late 90's Gonzalez helped prevent Bush's drunk driving conviction from becoming public knowledge. Gonzalez then lied to the Senate under oath about this incident during his confirmation hearings.

During the Indian Wars, Indians were labeled savages who scalped settlers (it was actually the other way around ). The Germans were labeled "the Huns" during WWI to evoke ancient hatred of Asian nomads who invaded Europe in the 5th Century. The Nazis provided an easy target during WWII with their Naziism and for the Japanese, anti-Asian sentiments were not hard to evoke in the US. This anti-Asian racism lasted through Korea and Vietnam.

But how about our Civil War? Both sided were white and American. How did the North villify the South? As rebels and slave-owners?(That did not sound too demonic , considering the time). How about the South against the North ? Damn Yankees (pretty tame)? *****rs Lovers (insulting enough?)

Men are not naturally inclined to kill and maim other men with whom they have no personal quarrels so the leaders have had to use something to dehumanize and demonize the other side. What did they use during the Civil War to villify each other?

When you were 1st lady - you tried to address but, did not have any facts about Health Care & recently speaking about Universal HC you neglected to mention it causes income taxes to go up, higher admin costs, most seniors would not be covered, etc. Now you are telling us the oil companies would be willing to let you have their extra profits(?) for you to spend on energy research. Where would you begin and what would your agenda be? I think you should also explain your time in the White House and all the stories of purgery, abuse-of-power, Lewinsky, document shredding just to name a few. You want us to make you the Commander-In-Chief of the western world, tell us on what basis to you think you deserve this privilage. Thank you in advance for your attention to this matter.

To question him is like asking God If he knows what he is doing , Sacrilege to followers . The rest of the people are wrong and do not count if they speak out against Bush . They should leave the country or get behind him and shut up .

Try filling in the blanks: "Plants take in _ _ gas, and release _ gas. Animals inhale _ gas, and exhale _ _ gas".

The lives of plants and animals are entwined. CO2 is essential for the growth and development of plants and for all life on Earth.

Gases such as carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, HFCs, PFCs, among others, were identified as greenhouse gases, CARBON DIOXIDE gas, CO2, more than any of the other gases, was targeted for curtailment. Whatever for? CARBON DIOXIDE, CO2, is a good, clean, ecologically essential gas.

Why are so many sheeple willing to believe anything that Al Gore is spewing--when his actions so audibly prove he could care less for the environment.

Why does Gore want to cripple our economy based on these lies? How could this possibly be of personal benefit to him?

If you severely dislike Sean Hannity, he has a phone number you can call and express your opinion of him. The number is 212 613 3830.

Can all of you liberals please call this line and express your opinion of him. He will play your comments on air and it is funny to hear what you all think of him.

Hannity forever, liberalism never!!!!

They told us they DID NOT NEED a warrant, asked if we had a child in the house and we said yes, and they said stand back, we are coming in. This is while another officer is standing there with his hand on his gun, holster strap undone, with flashlights in our eyes at 2am. They did not tell us it was for a welfare check on the child until they get in the house. Talk about feeling violated!

I think he is he has risen gas prices up to almost $3 a gallon and he want pull out of the war b/c he thinks its funny that our soldiers are getting killed. Well I think he should put his own childern in the war and let them get killed then that way he can feel how everyone else feels who has lost a child to war. Us Americans should have never voted for him. I know I didn't I voted for Kerry. At least our boys would have been home and 3000 lives would have been saved. Who agrees with me?
