The ufratees river is in iraq and according to Holy Bible this is where the beginning of Armageddon starts! And this is why our government is sending them there to be nuked! And leave us open for an attack from the north i-35 corridor,Cannida and Minnosota is where our border will be breached by the muslum's! This is all part of the plan to over throw christains-remove the name Jesus by yours truly the Anti-christ,Satan himself! Does this really sound all that far fetched? It's happening as we speak! Wake up Christain America! We are being set up by our own government!!!!!!!!

I do not mean burping and drinking beer and crushing the cans on their foreheads. But I have seen how the National Organization of Witches have trained their women to keep the man in their life tame.

Is the American male perceived as a threat to women ? I believe that the man and women should be equal.

You see all of the time how the typical while male is portrayed in commericials as a dumb bumbling fool that is either FAT or BALD or a combination thereof. Once or twice OK but 99 percent of any commericial foes out of their way to show America what a boob the white man is.

TV is TV I know it is not real but there is something wrong with this picture.

If you think I am BSing you just flip on the TV and watch.

Many Democrats argue that Republicans try to force their morality on others through law. The Protection of Marriage Act, and anti-abortion laws are often cited as examples as ways in which Republicans try to do this.

However, do not many Democrats wish to do the same thing when they promote policies such as universal healthcare or minimum-wage laws?

Are not Democrats basically saying, "Because we think everyone should have healthcare, all Americans should have to pay for this healthcare, regardless of whether they want it or use it"? And, because we think everyone should be paid at least X dollars/ hour, every employer must pay their employees at least X dollars/ hour, or we will punish the employer with fines or worse."

How is this any different from Republicans saying "Because we think every marriage should be between a man and a woman, marriages can only consist of men and women, regardless of others' personal preferences"?

Both parties try to force morality on others.

Do governments using the staged scenario of public paranoia to their advantages? Are we giving up our most precious freedom in a silver plater with our own hands?
I remember in 1970 we were accusing Russian government for tapping phones, and watching peoples moves, taking people to jail, torture without having the right to have court appeal.
26 years later, under the name of National Security suddenly things look the same in this land of free and home of the brave!

Are you aware that the average working class UK citizen has 78 pounds out of every 100 pounds he/she earns landing up in Government coffers via both direct and indirect taxation? And to think they want more from us in Greenhouse gases taxation, road charging etc etc!!!!! These are NOT made up figures - this is FACT!
We will end up being better off by giving the Government our wage packets and getting pocket money from them.

About black persons without being called a racist. Its not racist to have a question or oppinion about a black person. Nor is it racist to disagree with 1.

As a white english person, im starting to think my type cant make a point or an alternative suggestion without being called racist.

Racism does go both ways, if a group of asian youths beat up a white person, its not all that likely to be considered a racist attack, yet the other way round, the race issue is thought of as worse than the assault.

Perhaps i should just concede that i have no freedom of speech in my own country.

Condemn the use of racism, yet use it as a tool or weapon to try and make some point. Paul ince said premiership chairmen are racist because there are no black managers in the top flight. Firstly there are a 100 white managers to every black 1, so getting 1 within 18 premiership teams is going to be difficult. As the chairmen look for the best candidate, not the 1 with the darkest skin, will he now apoligize to them, as they are not racist.

Perhaps he thought this would force 1 of them to offer him a job, not likely now, is it time black people stopped relying on racism as a form of argument?

they had received more attention from their fathers and received the long strokes at some point in their lives from a handsome, successful man? For instance, the most Liberal woman I knew in college became more conservative than Atilla The Hun after I tapped it because she was so thrilled to be validated as a woman.

Is it time for armed rebellion against our government yet? If not now, how soon?

Our country is under attack at the border. Foreigners are shooting at our border patrol agents and national guardsmen and our government does nothing. Worse, it arrests our agents for using guns to defend themselves.

Iran is seeking nukes to "wipe Israel from the map". These words are a direct quote from their president. And still our government does nothing.

Our students drop lower every year in rankings compared to students of other countries, and still our government does nothing.

Our national debt is ~$9 TRILLION, and still they don't cut spending.

Our federal budget is ~$3 TRILLION, our national GDP is ~$12 Trillion. This means the federal government alone (not including all 50 state governments and the thousands of local governments) controls 25% of every dollar and asset in the entire nation.

Will there ever be a time when "we the people" are pushed too far and must rebel?

An agreement the Bush administration reached with Mexico on Social Security benefits would allow illegal aliens granted amnesty in the future to claim credit for the time they worked illegally.
The deal was reached in 2004 but never released publicly because it hasn't been submitted to Congress. The TREA Senior Citizens League, a Social Security advocacy group, recently obtained the document through a Freedom of Information Act, and said it confirms the group's worst fears.
