Is it because the modern peasant is better treated ?

Is it ecause the elites are better hidden ?

Is it because there are better armies to put such things down ?



Why is a peasant uprising now impossible ?

Why hasn't he come out to support Michael Vick?

Why hasn't he apologized for Tawana Brawley?

Why hasn't he apologized for blindly supporting the railroading of the Duke lacrosse players?

Why hasn't he fulfilled his promise to champion to cause against hateful rap music lyrics?

Why is he asking for a million dollars on his website?

Why could anyone possibly support this self-serving moron, who sells out his own people for personal profit?

Why? Why? Why?

We all know of Nixon's alcaholic blackouts on the oval office floor, and with Wya's alcahol addictions, don't you think he looks like he's back at it again? It would explain a lot.

im not being sexist but im not sure how people feel about this one. I feel women have fought so much for equal rights that men have less rights now than women especially in the work place as men MUST wear a shirt and tie and women can wear what they want as long as it is smart. I have recently been disciplined cos of not wearing a shirt and tie but dressing smartly. Do you think my assumption is right?

Frankly, there must be a considerable amount of intervention and contarian influence for someone to overcome the bias that permeates their every media and educational message since early childhood...the rank and file of mainstream institutions such as CNN, The New York Times, the BBC, National Public Radio, The Washington Post, Harvard University, Yale University, the entire "Ivy League", most state and private universities/colleges and public elementary and high schools have all admitted that they are predominantly cloisters of propaganda and indoctrination in the liberal agenda, and overwhelmingly beholden to the Democrat party.

Fox News has been shown to have a miniscule amount of conservative bias, compared to the heavy-left bias of the rest of the media.

How can one not consider his/her worldview to be somewhat distorted and perverted by Marxism when realizing all the above? Unless one makes a deliberate effort to seek alternative sources of info (talk radio, etc.)...

When this technology becomes a standard for information distribution (like cellphones of today for mobile communications) one of the main risks is noise (non-information like advertisements and other exploitives). The main reason the internet is so saturated with noise is because it is dynamic, but so is information. So, how can the restrictions (to prevent noise from developing), without hampering information growth and distribution, be implimented?

then why dont they just leave?? i mean i see tons of questions saying "ooo 9/11 was an inside job" "our govt. is corrupted" "americans are murderers" "bush is stupid" "dont support our military" "let the illegal mexicans in" [ha just had to add that one] blah blah blah. and these are american people. seriously, if they hate america so much then why dont they just move to stinking iraq or mexico instead of complaining about it?? or do they realize that there is no place like america, which gives them the right to freedom of speech to say those things and all these other freedoms, and just dont want to admit it?

like they want to say how bad america is but the second you say "ok fine, you dont have to stay here" they go all "ohhh ive got hte freedom of speech....i cna say what i want..i dont have to leave"

This is for people of Mexican descent. I thought Latino was the most PC, but then there's those shirts that reads something like "Not Latino, not Hispanic, I'm Mexican".
So the the most PC term actually Mexican, and not Latino?

Can someone tell me what law/laws he broke? I keep hearing he "solicited sex" in the bathroom. So did he try to pay for sex? I didn't hear that in the taped confession. Yes, I think the situation is sleezy, but I'm not sure I understand what law he broke if he did not try to pay for sex or actually get caught getting-it-on in public? I've been out at clubs and bars and have seen ppl "solicit" consential sex from strangers often. How is Craig's situation different, except tacky??
Also is a foot-bump and a hand grazing really a solicitation?

just wondering if by not admitting bush is the worst president (self proclaimed) ever- worst criminal to the country- worst in anything patriotic. Simply the worst person ever in American history.

Does it pain your conscience to denie these facts?

Does the truth hurt you so much inside that you would rather turn the other way and denie this reality?

Does it make you ache inside your soul to know Bush has decieved America and your supported him?

Does it hurt beyond belief to know he deceived all of us?

it does to me. It hurts beyond belief. I grieve for the loss of my brother in Iraq. I cry in bed at night wishing I had my brother here and alive. I cry for other families that have lost their loved ones.

The pain Bush has brought upon our country is immense. No more loved ones should die in vain. Please support the troops alive. Don't let any more die in vain.

Please help America and end this lie bush has brought onto America. Please. I beg you with all of my heart. Please.

I've always thought that taxes were a source of revenue, yet I see people on YA constantly claiming that revenues go up when taxes go down. Where do they get this idea? Is it true in one particular case, and they're trying to claim it applies in others? And if it is generally true, up to what point? Surely the government couldn't abolish taxes entirely, or even distribute money by means of a rebate, and still increase revenues?

Relgion has always been a litmus test (whether for good or bad, I won't say), yet many people say that religion should be kept out of politics now. How can these people explain why the government did well when religion was vey much out in the open? The greatest president we have ever had in this country, Abraham Lincoln, was very religious as were so many other of our great presidents. Why then try to get religion out of government if it makes such great people to lead this country?

The full quote: “War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things,” observed the British philosopher John Stuart Mill. “The decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling which thinks that nothing is worth war is much worse.”
