I saw a few clips of Bill Maher on youtube, discussing the Armenian Genocide Resolution...
He made the coldest, snidest remarks about the resolution...
Like how its "irrelavent" because it was 92 years ago...

I'm pretty sure if Germany denied that the Jewish Holocaust ever took place, Bill Maher's stupid a** wouldn't be standing up there joking that..."stupid Congress wants to recognize the Jewish holocaust..that'll show the Nazis of WWII"(sarcasm)...

I'm so mad!!!!!

Am I overreacting???

I've been reading lots of references to current political discussion concerning Scottish devolvement and representation in Parliament. Could a smart UK citizen enlighten an ignorant American on this issue?

If the population rates stay the pace they are going the Catholic Population could soon pass the Protestant Population. If this were to occur and the Catholic population was much greater then the Protestant Population would Ireland Unite?

what does it mean?

On the Bomb it says "Iran or Bust" And Bush says "I am the decider right" the back ground looks like a a door way and windows. Cheney has a happy face nad his hand is ready for a high five. Bush is counfushed and has his hand pointed with his pointing finger to his mouth like he is unsure of his question asked. Bush is to the right nad Cheney is to the left.

Author and journalist Naomi Wolf spoke at the University of Washington last month and had a lot to say about the steps towards turning a democracy into a fascist dictatorship .
There our many echos of what has historically happened at other times and in other parts of the world.
Could this be happening here in the U.S.?
Is an Orwellian society what is in store for the future of America?

Why is Iran Dying For a Fight? If you look into it ? Do you believe these stats affect them or "those" right now in positions of authority as they bait the US?

Russia has similar woes. Immigrants are supporting the economy. Yet Putin turns a blind eye as Neo Nazi Youth beat the non-whites in public? Current TV documentary. Al Gore's network.

DO you find this interesting ? Just another side note. Asia Times.com has alot of very different ideas. For both sides of the aisle. I have noticed a clear shift away from Bush in past weeks. Check out the Musharraff article today. Thanks for your time.

one of my answers was recently rejected with a violation notice [see the violation appeal board for specific details if you care].

I responded to a question that included foul language with a comment that I thought was politically protected free speech.

I used no foul language and attacked no specific individual. All I did was imply that the Democrats must like Hillary because of her questionable ethical stances on a series of issues.


Who else has been issued a violation notice for what seems like Constitutionally protected political speech?

Do we have some politically correct types wandering around the boards trying to have answers they dislike removed simply for their political tilt?


{Or is this another questionable ethical activity by a "misguided" low level Hillary campaign staffer??}

Naw. Not even they would stoop that low -- or would they?

If it meant slightly higher taxes, but no individual medical bills, and medications were cheaper, or free, would you vote to get a National Healthcare Plan instated in our country?

The "terrorists" hate our freedoms so our government says that we have to give up a little bit of our freedom for security. Well doesn't that mean that the "terrorists" have effectively won their war on our freedoms by proxy?

...we need to redefine our rights to privacy?
Is this not another manipulative tactic of the federal government to allow intrusive snooping into our personal lives, when none is warranted.
Under the guise of protecting the American people the government is slowly but surely throwing the U.S. constitution out the window. Their abundantly successful endeavors in stamping out terrorism here and abroad will undoubtedly open the door for even more dismantling of our civil liberties. Will strip searches at airports be the point where people say "Hey this has gone too far!" or will we wait until B.C.searches become the norm for simply entering the airport? To what length are Americans willing to give up their rights to assist the gov. in propagating this false sense of protection?

If you want to be a GOOD Democrat, you must have certain basic beliefs:

1. You have to believe the AIDS virus is spread by a lack of federal funding.

2. You have to believe that the same teacher who can't teach 4th graders how to read is somehow qualified to teach those same kids about sex.

3. You have to believe that guns in the hands of law-abiding Americans are more of a threat than U.S. nuclear weapons technology in the hands of Chinese communists.

4. You have to believe that there was no art before Federal funding.

5. You have to believe that global temperatures are less affected by cyclical, documented changes in the earth's climate and more affected by yuppies driving SUVs.

6. You have to be against capital punishment (putting murderers to death) but support abortion (killing innocent unborn babies) on demand (federally funded of course.)

7. You have to believe that businesses create oppression and that governments and unions create prosperity.

acknowledge even this simple fact.

Why do you suppose that is:

1 - it doesn't conform to their world view so it can't be so?
2 - it would mean saying George Bush was right and they'll never go there?
3 - after all the caterwauling about "We can't win!", "It costs too much!", "It's all about the oil!", and on and on, agreeing even remotely that anything is going right over there will bring up too much (more) bile?
4 - simple lack of maturity regardless of their chronological age?
5 - too many years being brought up in environments where they're never wrong (read: mommy never uttered the word "No", coaches declared that all competitors were "winners", and teachers told all students that their work was created equal)?

Feel free to offer your own suggestions.

Whatever the reason, it's remarkable that these characters expect (yes, expect, not want) to be taken seriously on such a serious matter as war.
