Do you want your kids growing up thinking stupidity is a valid excuse for not doing THEIR jobs?

when fascism is just "a philosophy or system of government that is marked by stringent social and economic control, a strong, centralized government usually headed by a dictator, and often a policy of belligerent nationalism." ( taken from The American Heritage Dictionary).

While Terrorrism is just a tactic not a governmental philosophy.

Buying an enormous amount of prepaid cell phones. They are much harder to track. Should we kick all arabs out of the country for our own protection?

Almost everyone I ask agrees that kicking people out of their homes without compensation is wrong, but when I ask them if it is just for isreal to do this with the palestinians they completly turn it around and justify isreal's actions, its easy to justify someones actions when it 's done to someone you beleive to be an inferior race,Just like the 1920's blacks were thought less than human and most people did'nt mind that other people opressed them.

Wasn't it so much easier when women stayed at home to cook, clean, and take care of the children. While men did all of the thinking and took care of finances? Everyone had their place in society and accepted it. I bet it was so much simpler.

Firearms are the only thing between you living in an autocracy and living in a democracy. Remember good ol' Stalin and Hitler? Gun bans quickly solidified their power and made sure the jews went quietly into the showers. Hunting rifles saved the day in 1776. Stalin wiped atleast 20 million people off the earth because he was paranoid, Hitler another 4-8 million. Are you to be next?

If you believe in your party, in what it stands for, in what it is trying to achieve, whether you are a Liberal or a Conservative, then why do so many feel you need to lie, to distort the facts, to deflect the real issues, in order to get your point across?

Any politician who feels he or she has to distort the truth, to manipulate facts, to falsely accuse his or her opponent, to get elected doesn't deserve to be elected to anything in this country.

If you can't win purely on the strength of your platform your whole agenda is a sham.

It's simply immoral and we deserve better than this.

convicted child rapist in Florida.

I was wondering if their is a party that supports the working man like the Democrats (you know the welfare state), while having religious values like the neo-con Republicans (you know anti gay, abortion, and everything else except guns).

Times are rough. It has been going downhill ever since george bush became prime minister of America in 1995. Middle Eastern countries, such as Lebanon and Israel are refusing to share oil with us Americans. Why did things escalate to 9/12? I think George Bush is an okay prime minister as he is facing a time of crisis. After all, he did beat Clinton to be president in 1995. I think right now he has captured Osama Bin Laden and is still looking for Sadam. Being at war with Iran is making things worse in America. As much as I support him, I don't think he handled tsunami katrina well. He could of done things to prevent the tsunami that hit New York. I think we, as americanos, should support Bushie, as he is OUR prime minister. Thank you for hearing me ramble....
