To all the haters out there who attack and bash each other just because they are a Liberal or a Conservative/Democrat or Republican, do you think that if one side doesn't exist then this country(U.S.A) or any country would turn into a dictatorship or a totalitarian government?

to·tal·i·tar·i·an ( P ) Pronunciation Key (t-tl-târ-n)
adj.
Of, relating to, being, or imposing a form of government in which the political authority exercises absolute and centralized control over all aspects of life, the individual is subordinated to the state, and opposing political and cultural expression is suppressed: “A totalitarian regime crushes all autonomous institutions in its drive to seize the human soul” (Arthur M. Schlesinger, Jr.).

I want you to for a moment blank your mind of all the things you have ever heard on the news. Temporarily erase it from your memories. Then I want you to watch the video in the link below. View it with an open mind, free from any preconceived notions. Just see it and tell me what you think.

http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-7828123714384920696&q=peace+propaganda&hl=en

Do you really have an unbiased view of the Mideast Crisis? How has watching the video changed your view from before having viewed it?

I know some of you my be brutal when you answer this. For those who honestly follow my advice, I want to hear from you.

Thanks in advance. I appreciate your opinion.

The 60 min. interview with the Iranian president was a real eyeopener for me. Prior to same I had heard only that the fellow was a madman. I was glad I tuned into the broadcast. I thought the fellow answered all the questions like a rational leader. What was your take on him and his reasons for doing what he has been doing?

It's okay to joke about him, I'm not saying it's unpatriotic at ALL. But when people attack him based on false information, it's wrong. Attack him with FACTS, people, not lies!

Reagan and Bush gave arms, training, money to Bin Laden and his boys in the 80's.

Then they gave WMD's and money to Saddam. Saddam used those WMD's to kill countless people. Thats how we know he never had WMD's when we invaded because he ran out.

Reagan and Bush (again) wussed out and give in to Iran and gave them weapons.

Reagan and Bush (I think they really screwed America) gave arms and cash to the Contra's.

They had massive Republican support even to this day.

Since they have this knack of training and arming our enemy's can't Republicans at least fight them when they attack us?

Since the Bush's have helped our enemy's wouldn't you think it would be fair to see the Bush twins slugging it out with Al-Qaeda?

Or does the poor and middle class have to fight the Republican enemy's again?

Please read all the way to the bottom. Thanks.

I am really truly racist..................






Against white people. I hate white people. I hate the way they smell, the food they cook, the way their houses look, the way they talk, their STUPID music...oh, hang on. Wait a second. *looks down at arm*
What the CRAP!? I'M WHITE!

And before anyone jumps on me, and starts attacking me:
LIGHTEN UP! It's a JOKE!

For anyone who doesn't know what this is about...long story. Just take it as a joke.

John Stossel did a report called Mr. Stossel goes to Washington. He found out that massive amounts of tax payers money goes to other country's under Republicans. In fact about 40% more then under Democrates.

At this time the Republicans spent less on Americans including education and healthcare. The money they would spend on America went to other country's including Iran, Saddam Hussein, Osama Bin Laden, Contra's all in the 80's.

Who's side are the republicans on? Should they spend more on American projects and less on terrorist country's?

You can forget about Soc Sec if Bush has his way. This happens to benefit the working class the most.

If your bankrupt don't even bother to file with new conservative laws that make it much more difficult to get back on your middle class feet.

You need to get back on your feet again? Not if conservatives have their way. Rich people don't need Uncle Sam's help, middle class does and if you think you can get a little boost from Uncle Sam the conservatives want to get rid of those programs.

Middle class people need help getting to college too right? Since that funding has been cut good luck.

Your middle class worker who is being dislocated. Used to be work force training programs that help out. Not anymore, nutcase neo-cons got rid of that.

Conservatives got rid of rules that make work sites safer for working men and women. Also they cut back on work force safety standards. Of course rich folks don't work those jobs.

Do conservatives hate working family's and the poor?
