Let's do something like the space program and stop forking over godgillions to the arabs who hate us so much. Much better for the climate too. If we hadn't had a jackass in the White House for the last 8 years, this would already have been done.

It is obvious these articles are extremely biased and are trying to make Ron Paul supporters appear as "nerds"? They even call the college students nerds for wearing t-shirts with Ron Paul's name on them. Ron Paul's supporters leave standing room only because they want him as their President in 2008.

Do you think this kind of slander against people who support Ron Paul deserves a public apology?

Times report says:
"Only now the audience is packed with hundreds of kids in RON PAUL REVOLUTION T-shirts who go nuts — giving standing ovations when he drones on about getting rid of the Federal Reserve and returning to the gold standard."

Ron Paul does Not drone on!

They also are not calling him a Republican which he clearly is! He is one of the most conservative Republicans running for President!

Who owns stock in Time Magazine and paid for this poor excuse for a story?

Yes that does say Venezuela and since most people are wondering why he would say - not to attack his country . Well its because you constantly listen to nonsense ! The US is heading towards Venezuela - Not Iran .

Anyway here's some of the article -

Hugo Chavez, the Venezuelan president, has warned that oil prices could surge to 0 if America attacks against his country or Iran.

In his opening address at a rare Organisation of Petroleum Exporting Countries (Opec) summit in the Saudi capital, he declared that Opec should "assert itself as an active political agent".

Sometimes I wonder if he really is that bad. I'm sure we can say negative things about every president we have ever had.

In 2005, in a state of the Union address Pres Bush mentioned the Social Secutity program is in trouble, and asked for a bipartisan study of the issue.People painted him as the man who was out to steal our social security, and members of congress said there was nothing wrong with it.Now, with 60 million baby boomers about to sign up for social security, people are starting to worry about it, and some politicians are agreeing, there may be a problem.
Could it be Pres Bush was thinking of the next generation, while our politicians were thinking of the next election.
Pres Bush has every right to say "I told you so."

Kucinich protests Army training school By HARRY R. WEBER, Associated Press Writer
Sun Nov 18, 4:53 PM ET



COLUMBUS, Ga. - Democratic presidential hopeful Dennis Kucinich said Sunday the thinking that went into producing an Army school blamed for human rights abuses in Latin America was the same that led the U.S. to war in Iraq and could cause it to raid Iran.

ADVERTISEMENT

Kucinich was speaking at the 18th annual protest of the school at Fort Benning that trains Latin American soldiers, police and government officials. One of his first acts as president if elected would be to close the school, he said.

"The type of thinking that produced this school is the same type of thinking that produced the war in Iraq and is producing a war against Iran," Kucinich said. The Ohio congressman and former Cleveland mayor was addressing a crowd estimated by local police to number roughly 10,000.

The Army's School of the Americas moved to Fort Benning from Panama in 1984 and was replaced in 2001 by the Western Hemisphere Institute for Security Cooperation, under the Defense Department.

The protests outside the gate to the military installation are timed to commemorate six Jesuit priests who were killed along with their housekeeper and her daughter in El Salvador on Nov. 19, 1989. Some of those who killed them had attended the School of the Americas.

The military has acknowledged that some graduates committed crimes after attending the School of the Americas, but has said in the past that no cause-and-effect relationship has ever been established.

The new Western Hemisphere Institute has mandatory human rights courses, but the demonstrators contend changes at the school are only cosmetic.

Fort Benning spokeswoman Monica Manganaro said the protesters are "spectacularly misinformed."

She said the school teaches the same courses taught to American soldiers. The only difference is the school in question serves mostly people from Latin America and, as a result, the courses are in Spanish, she said.

I personally dont see the problem with capitilism. If you have the desire to break above the rest of the middle-lower class, by all means go ahead. If you are smart enough to be better than others, why not? If you create a company and sell things and make tons of money, whats the problem with that? I mean, you worked for it, so you deserve it. Communism is stupid, because then you are making everybody the same class. Thats like putting a heavy weight champ in the same class as a light weight. To have communism is to get rid of honors classes in school. I mean you are basically classifying everyone in the same group. Even though some may be smarter than others.

Please dont be a smartass with responses. I really would like to understand why some of you believe communism is better than capitilism. I have been reading a lot about it, and I still dont understand the appeal towards it.
