...South America, albeit having different countries within it, is still a bigger part of the two continents of America than the United States. (not to mention Central America of course). On the same page, Canada is also a part of North America.
When we look at a map of the United States, that is all it is. The United States. George Bush is not the President of America. He is President of the United States.

Have the right wingers not yet learned that american is on to their smearing tactics??

remember last election when the cry was "support the war and republicans or you are a traitor"?? did not work did it?

So now the choice is seemingly between conservatives and socialists. Well if we are going to play it that way, then lets call it a choice between socialism and fascism.

If right wingers can take what democrats want to the extreme, democrats should take republican posititions to the extreme too to smear them the same way.

So from now on people I want tons of commentar about stopping fascism in this country.....its TIME TO SMEAR BACK.

Am I missing something here or isn't Saudi Arabia the foremost exporter of radical Islamic dictatorship in the world, and didn't they attack the U.S. on 9/11. How can Bush justify this, it's worse than trying to sell our ports to a MiddleEastern country.

The entire world is controlled by the races that won the genocidal/conquest wars of the new millenium. In America the 'great' Aztec and Incan empires were the product of recent conquest during which entire people ceased to exist(the Toltecs, Olmecs, and Maya) they were barbaric societies based on slavery and human sacrifice. In Africa most people do not realize that what we think of as black "Africans" originated in a thin belt below the Sahara, they pushed the native Bushmen(which were closer to the Aboriginies of Australia) into the desert enslaving and killing them along the way, then they pushed south creating societies BASED on slavery and conquest, Europeans reached the southern tip before blacks did, whent he first explorers reached the Cape, the closest blacks were over a hundred miles away in Natale. In the middle east the Muslims created a new soceity based on Islam and the rapid conquest of others, and went on to inslave and kill over 8 million 'Africans.'

Given the fact that most of them haven't saved up for retirement, combined with the fact that they are entering old age at a time when health care costs are skyrocketing, then shouldn't they more appropriately be called the "Baby Bust" or the "Baby Bankruptcy" generation if "Generation W" doesn't suit their tastes?

What was really unfair was that on the CNN YouTube debates, the Democrats had a mentally unstable man with a huge gun trying to make gun control look great. I am sick of these gun control laws that have no effect on the crime rates whatsoever. I somewhat agree with the ban on automatics, but all the other gun control laws are nonsense. Looking at history, gun control is the first step to genocide and martial law. Hitler disarmed the Germans by passing gun control laws, then he was free to oppress any German he wanted because they were disarmed. Japan never attacked the US during WWII because they knew we were armed. The socialists governments in Europe banned most guns there, and the crime rate skyrocketed and is much higher than the crime rate of the US. Criminals will still find the means to purchase guns no matter how many laws are passed, and then they can attack innocent unarmed civilians. Criminals will always find a way to attack someone no matter how many laws you pass.

Liberal activists are stepping up their campaign against Fox News Channel by pressuring advertisers not to patronize the network.

MoveOn.org, the Campaign for America's Future and liberal blogs like DailyKos.com are asking thousands of supporters to monitor who is advertising on the network. Once a database is gathered, an organized phone-calling campaign will begin, said Jim Gilliam, vice president of media strategy for Brave New Films, a company that has made anti-Fox videos.

The groups have successfully pressured Democratic presidential candidates not to appear at any debate sponsored by Fox, and are also trying to get Home Depot Inc. to stop advertising there.

At least 5,000 people nationwide have signed up to compile logs on who is running commercials on Fox, Gilliam said. The groups want to first concentrate on businesses running local ads, as opposed to national commercials.

With liberals radical support of gay marriage, abortions-on-demand, and socialism (free money, food, healthcare, clothes, etc.) for everybody, shouldn't we be glad we have conservatives out there who uphold true values and the real American dream of independence and self-responsibility?

And no, I'm not talking hypocritcal buffoons like Foley and Vitter but real cons who eschew socialist views and uphold traditional American values.

President Bush on Wednesday said he will veto Senate legislation that would increase funding for SCHIP by $35 billion over five years because expanding the program would lead to more people dropping private health coverage, the Baltimore Sun reports (West, Baltimore Sun, 7/19). Senate Finance Committee members on Friday finalized a bipartisan agreement on SCHIP reauthorization that would increase five-year funding for the program from $25 billion to $60 billion by raising the federal cigarette tax from 39 cents to $1 per pack. SCHIP expires on Sept. 30.

We pay Income tax on every dollar we make, we pay sales tax on everything we buy (at least once), and we pay property tax year after year, yet when “we the people” speak, it falls on deaf ears.

The last American Revolution was fought over “Taxation Without Representation” – what makes the 1700’s differ from today?

As an American who is an icon of the business world, and on the verge of selling off a placebo of a company to a rather gullible Brit, I would like to ask the above.

It is of great concern to me that anobody in the US get wound up at all by british "royalty." This is the only link that brits have with their once golrious past, but I wonder how it is that they glean any hope that they may rise from their dismal socialist existence. Do Americans pay attention to brit royalty because they may have familiy links? Because they may simply feel sorry for the brits? These may be valid charitable reasons, but think folks, the more you coddle a socialist, the less productive they will get. On the flip side, it makes them feel good, and even more gullible in the negotiations.

So back to my side issue, should I complete the sale of the non-performing dental division to the brits? It would be a tidy little profit for me, and help me get rid of a non-performer.
