So i was watching Jimmy Kimble a few weeks ago and he had a segment about the building of the wall between Mexico and Texas border line. CNN covered a story about it where they interviewed one of the construction workers. While being interviewed the men says and I quote" I am an illegal alien. Its kinda funny because crossed through this exact field coming here. But I love America."
LOL How dare u Bush!

Why does the current (and some past) administration of the US of A think they are the only ones who know how others should be running their business? Bring on the asinine answers to my clearly asinine question...

Where are all the protest songs?
I turned 18 in 1969....got my draft card on my 18th birthday.
Prime cannon fodder.
Protest songs out the wazoo....
some grim ...like Bob Dylans "Masters of War"

Masters of War...BOB DYLAN circa 1963Come you masters of war
You that build all the guns
You that build the death planes
You that build the big bombs
You that hide behind walls
You that hide behind desks
I just want you to know
I can see through your masks

You that never done nothin'
But build to destroy
You play with my world
Like it's your little toy
You put a gun in my hand
And you hide from my eyes
And you turn and run farther
When the fast bullets fly

Like Judas of old
You lie and deceive
A world war can be won
You want me to believe
But I see through your eyes
And I see through your brain
Like I see through the water
That runs down my drain

You fasten the triggers
For the others to fire
Then you set back and watch
When the death count gets higher
You hide in your mansion
As young people's blood
Flows out of their bodies
And is buried in the mud

You've thrown the worst fear
That can ever be hurled
Fear to bring children
Into the world
For threatening my baby
Unborn and unnamed
You ain't worth the blood
That runs in your veins

How much do I know
To talk out of turn
You might say that I'm young
You might say I'm unlearned
But there's one thing I know
Though I'm younger than you
Even Jesus would never
Forgive what you do

Let me ask you one question
Is your money that good
Will it buy you forgiveness
Do you think that it could
I think you will find
When your death takes its toll
All the money you made
Will never buy back your soul

And I hope that you die
And your death'll come soon
I will follow your casket
In the pale afternoon
And I'll watch while you're lowered
Down to your deathbed
And I'll stand o'er your grave
'Til I'm sure that you're dead

Have all the persons like Joseph McCarthy and Edgar Hoover disappeared? What about the procedures they used to bring to heel politicians, congressmen, hollywood producers and newsmen? Can anyone cite current examples of similar people and procedures?

Or you get a ticket for not wearing a seatbelt? Little by little our rights are being took away, but most people only look at the ones that help with terrorism.

It is that the media is liberal. I am constantly finding news stories that are negative to this war and the republican party but for some reason I never see them on network news.

If the media was so 'liberal' then how come you never see those stories on national network news. 9 times out of 10, I will see a story on network news and because I have actually seen the real story on say CSPAN or already read all the details on the associated press website, or an interview on PBS news, I know what is being left out. And trust me, the things left out are not helping the liberals but rather the republicans.

If you would like an example, try this one: Bush was offerred B. Laden by the Taliban before he invaded Afghanistan. I have many examples but this one is on my mind today and I've been tripping at how many ppl didn't know it.

So many ppl were unaware of that one that I spent an hour seaching PBS.org archives to verify it.

"Liberal media' America's best kept secret/lie.

Was reading an answer to a different question and someone mentioned us spreading democracy.... Then this question suddenly just hit me:

Does anyone else find that statement amazing when right now we have a huge dictatorship right here in this country. I mean come on... all 3 branches of our government are one party with a leader that is basically doing whatever the hell he wants. And when the press ask him why, his answer is, "I'm doing what I BELIEVE is right." (Emphasis on 'I') (He said that just yesterday at the Vienna summit when answering questions from reporters)

To hell with what everybody else thinks is right... Is it just me or does this not sound like a dictatorship?

A quiz for the left and the right.

For the left - Did you boycott Star Wars (or insert other Fox releases here) because Fox released it?

For the right - Do you boycott Disney movies (or insert something else here) because they own ABC?

C.I.A operatives have been linked to Al-Qaeda members. Mock emergency drills in London. Now illegal wiretaps And a dozen other tactics are being used to shock us? Is this the first step towards scaring us to give up our liberties? Are we entering into George Orwells 1984?

Exaggerated Threat against the Sears Tower

They had no operational ability beyond their mouths.

Group "never met Bin Laden or had any contact with the terror kingpin's henchmen… In fact, they had no connection to any known terrorist organization."

No bomb making materials were found in the raids."

Chicago Police: There was "No credible threat… They had no capability to (destroy the Sears tower). They never got to that point – or could have."
# Sears Tower executive: "Law enforcement continues to tell us that they have never found evidence of a credible terrorism threat against Sears Tower that has gone beyond criminal discussions." (Chicago Sun-Times)
# Senior federal law-enforcement source: "No means" to attack Sears Tower or other buildings. "There was no threat at all." (Chicago Tribune)

I'm asking this question a second time because I had to locate my source at PBS.org. (NOTE: this is NOT the Clinton offer)

I ask this because I have yet to find anyone here that is aware that AFTER 911 and BEFORE we invaded Afghanistan, the Taliban offerred to surrender over B. Laden with 2 stipulations: he be given to a nuetral country and the Taliban be recognized internationally.

The nuetral part is because this was right after 911 and they wanted a fair trial because USA emotions were running high. And the second part is because they wanted some kind of reward for this action.

I'm wondering why nobody seems to know this????? Man isn't propaganda and the power of manipulating the media massive? This story was never on network news. I wonder why???? Maybe because Bush had a plan beforehand, had his mind made up, and didn't really want B. Laden because he WANTED war????

Something to think about and thinking is a good thing when you know the WHOLE TRUE story!!!!

For being straight, since this is really the big issue with gay marriage. It's not about "morality" it's about legal protection under the law.

Fourteenth Amendment

Section. 1. All persons born or naturalized in the United States and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.

Read this last part again:
nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws

Forget the fact that the station they were on was powered by a hamster on a wheel connected to a 15 watt generator, but nevermind that...is it a bad thing that they couldn't maintain a high enough audience share in the ATL to stay on the air? Isn't this the way a free market works? Or should this be the catalyst for a communist style application of the so-called "fairness doctrine"? If liberalism is so competitive, why can't their mouthpiece in the radio world succeed without donations and help from wealthy limousine liberals? I look forward to being called names by all of the enlightened and tolerant lefties here. Cheers!
