Other - Politics & Government - September 2006

Oh my gosh! I think I insulted the Censorship Party, formerly called the Democrat Party. They threatened ABC into either editing or canceling an upcoming special called "Path to 9-11". I dared criticize them for this. Will I be threatened too? Will my right to speak out be violated? I never would have thought that the party that once embraced our 1st Amendment right to free speech would now stomp that right into the ground like Gestapo type, jack booted thugs!!! Adolph would be proud of his heir apparents, the Censorship Party. Will I be silenced next? Will they come for you too?

airing a TV show on how the Clinton adminstration could have someway or somewhat prevented the devastation of Sept. 11? Do you think that the former Clinton adminstration has the right to keep this from the public? As in this could just be some huge coverup by the Clinton adminstration or do the American people have the right to know how Clinton and his adminstration neglected to somewhat secure American security? Does this make you think twice about voting for Hilary if she runs for office in 2008?

I've seen many things on here talking about censorship, but it's hardly ever actual censorship, it's just social pressure?

do any of you understand the difference between going to jail for saying something and someone just "thinking bad about you" for saying something?

99 percent of the time it just seems like someone crying because someone said something "mean" to them... saying something mean to you, or thinking bad about you is not censorship... in fact, it's just the opposite, it's merely someone else expressing their right to free speech against your ideas...

you can't regulate or deregulate social pressures with any real success... that's just a part of free speech...

Especially in a crowd filled with people of different ages. I am a freshman now, and I used to remember in elementary school, my school would get together in the auditorium, and we would have a moment of scilence, and then the principle would talk about how the school is made to be a very safe school and that if we ever need someone to turn to, we have our friends and staff members. Then, the principle would end the assembly with a book reading of The Big Bad Pig and The Three Little Wolves, a story of making peace. What do you think is the most appropriate way to remember 9/11?

SHÂN ROSS AND MICHAEL HOWIE; Scotsman 10th Sept 2006
'Scottish Justice in the dock following attack on walker'

'AN URGENT investigation was last night demanded into why one of Scotland's most violent criminals was released early from prison weeks before carrying out a horrific attack that left an American tourist in a coma.

Colin Ross, a self-confessed woman-hater, yesterday admitted attacking Marty Layman-Mendonca, 57, a teacher from Vermont, with an iron bar near Inverness on 5 July.

The attack occurred less than a month after Ross, 34, was released early from a three-year sentence for attacking a female holidaymaker from Germany.'

Senator Rockefeller seems to think so. At least Saddam kept the electricity on and the water running.

Just by supressing the term Civil War, we cannot keep our head in the sand while our young men sacrifice their lives. Iraq is history now...and do not repeat Churchill. Churchill was ashamed of it and admitted his mistake. We know Churchill is your hero, but you need not repeat the errors of the hero.

The embassy was just bombed, the Taliban is reasserting itself. Media reports have just about disappeared, and this war had been forgotten. The military has put it on the shelf and does a little mop up work although OBL and his thugs are still running around out there. The Afghan and American people deserve more. They deserve to have the Taliban eradicated and have the US finish what it started. The media should be ashamed.

The aftermath after Hurrican Katrina and people's attitudes towards actaul victims (not folks that cheated FEMA) were pretty ugly. It shows we are a society that is strictly divided by class. What do you think?

Soros:

1 - is a white male
2 - is filthy rich
3 - made his money in the most raw and unfettered region of capitalism - currency speculation (two side-effects of his very successful speculations were the 1992 downward revaluation of the British Pound and the Asian Financial Crisis of 1997-1999, the latter of which caused terrible hardship for tens of millions of poor people)
4 - uses VERY LARGE amounts of his money to influence the most important political races in the US (in exclusive favor of left-wingers, for those of you who haven't been paying attention)
5 - is an immigrant to the US.

So, my question is - is he a Good Guy or a Bad Guy?

The reason I'm asking this question is because President Bush foreign policy is a shambles. He's pissed off so many terrorists that I just have this gut feeling that under the President watch there will be another 9/11 attack somewhere that will be far worse then 9/11 it's just my gut feeling is all. And we citizens whom have nothing to do with war are caught in the middle of such things like this. I'd just like to hear what some people have to say on this topic. It's frightening and eventually something will happen. It's just a matter of time.

This theory is premised on unbridled greed carried out to its logical conclusion. First, a primer.
The Dow averages fell from their record lifetime highs within hours of Bush's speech on tax cuts. It troughed amid growing concerns of corporate fraud. It's rise from the bottom coincided with Americas invasion in Iraq in March of 2003. Corporate profitibility was sustained by massive deficit spending which financed the war. Huge profits flowed into corporate coffers. This all adds up to the looting of america.
Now, what will these capitalists do with their wealth? Will they use the proceeds to finance their next expansion?
I suspect that greed knows no bounds and they will not stop until they have totally bankrupted america. What will they then do? Will they take over another country far from the madness of the crowds in the North American cities, or can they live side by side with the sprawling masses? I suspect they have quietly been buying up land in South Africa.
