Why does Liberals and Neocons alike think that America always had equal rights for all?

when in fact women were only able to vote in recent American history? it took America almost 200 years to allow women to vote yet alone hold a position is Government. Funny enough they come across bashing us (saudi's) as if they always possessed freedom for all since the bill of righst was ratified. My country is far far far from being correct on many issues but we are less than a 100 years old. I am confident over time we will change for the better but you have no right to bash us the way you do. Ironically America was founded on democratic values but only gave equal rights to all on paper.

Why are people not smart enough to see what's real and what's not?

The fact that the John Stewart question was deleted shows right there that people take him seriously, and for those who say it's just entertainment read some of the comments from one of my last questions.

"Entertainment, or indoctrination, I don't really care it's funny, and I happen to agree with most of what he says. Jon Steward, and Stephen Colbert are carrying on a tradition of political satire in the footsteps of Will Rogers, Woody, and Arlo Guthrie, the Smothers brothers, and Pat Paulsen to name a few."

"John Stewart is an entertainer. That said, he is a very smart man and speaks the truth"

How people think insults of the president means truth about the war seriously people are smarter than that aren't they?

Someone who likes John Stewarts but not for the petty insults or unfactual information. Whether people like it or not Rush, Glenn Beck, Bill O'reilly are press and have press credentials, John Stewart is a comedian in case some of you forgot.

"Political Correctness" is a media disease, what ideology caused "PC" and supports it?

"PC" is seen by most people as a form of prejudice, bias and reverse racism.

PC is a double standard used in the media to advance an ideology.... most people will admit "PC" is wrong and agree "PC" is just another dishonest form of discrimination.

Who benefits from "PC" ? Another way to say it is who benefits from this form of racism, bias, prejudice and wrong doing?

Isn't all bias, all racism, all predjudice, all discrimination wrong? Why do some groups think you can selectively use "PC" to advance their ideology? Doesn't that clearly illustrate that the ideology who supports "PC" is corrupt and morally dishonest?

Why do people call Ron Paul a nutjob?

A man who after serving his medical residency in obstetrics+gynecology, he became a U.S. Air Force flight surgeon, serving outside the Vietnam War zone, and a Congressman for 17 years

He says we need to re-root ourselves in the Constitution
It is SUPPOSED to be the base of our government
What is so looney about that?

He wants the states and local areas to have the control of their schools and communities given back to them.
Why is that so wrong?

He wants individual freedom to be our leading rule.
That was what America was founded on.

So I ask as someone who, from what I see in news, has missed something because I don't know why people call him a nutjob. What makes him so crazy as opposed to the other people running around washington?

Bush was right the surge has worked hasnt it?

Well i am no George Bush fan but even the dems have to give the man credit for sticking to his guns and taking care of the dirty work that none of them would have ever had the balls to do. They voted for the war and had no ideal what war meant isnt that the way you see it?

Why is it always George Bushes Fault that there is a war?

Why does everyone blame the war on George Bush. Didn't Oliver North state that Bin Laden was a threat when Reagan was president? Do you think maybe if Bill Clinton kept his mind off cheating on his wife in the oval office that things would be different today?

Bush says he "wouldn't ask his spokespeople to lie". Does this mean he TOLD McLellan to lie?

Current White House press secretary Dana Perino said the meaning of the excerpt was unclear.

However, she said: "The president has not and would not ask his spokespeople to pass on false information."
