Politics - 23 November 2007

One thing the liberal leaning folks are good at is taking criticism, looking honestly at the results of our actions, admitting mistakes, correcting the behavior and trying to do better the next time?

Where as the conserative half of our society has, by nature, difficulty with this process? Would they would be more likely to 'defend the old guard'>

Baby dolls that had been amputated of arms and legs. Upon seeing this, and sickened by it since many of the peace-marchers haven't the first tactile clue of conflict, myself and a few friends began to wing our own projectiles of expression: oranges and eggs.

One of the bird embryos happened to spread the contents of it's genetic code on the face of a rather grimey looking hippy; patchouli-kid immediately hit the bricks crying.

Call it a 'counter-protest'.

The police seemed to concur by not only ignoring our volley but also by escorting the stunned leftists into a waiting patrol car.

Now, would you agree the American way still works?

DETROIT - In another blow to the Motor City's tarnished image, Detroit pushed past St. Louis to become the nation's most dangerous city, according to a private research group's controversial analysis, released Sunday, of annual FBI crime statistics


http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20071118/ap_on_re_us/dangerous_cities


The story goes on to say how some commie-lib organization (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marxist_criminology) decried the study as "an irresponsible misuse" of crime data"


Lol, "misuse"? Yea, how DARE they tell the public which city has the most crime! (might harm some Democrat mayor's feelings, you know)


The useful idiots at CNN piled on with "Experts say 'most dangerous city' rankings twist numbers"


http://www.cnn.com/2007/US/11/18/dangerous.cities.ap/index.html


"Experts", eh? Maybe the REAL reason the Left has suddenly become so fearful about studying data patterns of violent crimes is related to this:

to concince people that our economy is so bad? Headlines like the one Yahoo news used must not be working....the stores are crammed....Why are the people ignoring their doom and gloom headlines?

"Despite economy", malls and stores jammed
The "aggressive tactics" — "bigger discounts" and "expanded hours" like midnight openings — "apparently worked" Friday. Based on early reports, Macy's Inc., Toys "R" Us, K-B Toys Inc. and others that pushed big price cuts, reported bigger crowds for the early morning bargains than a year ago. Target Corp. and Wal-Mart Stores Inc., said they were also pleased with the shopper turnout.

This is 100% true -

After Graduating from Yale University (where he was officially listed among the Skull and Bones Society), Bush joined the airforce.

Jodie Foster (the daughter of a colonel in the AirForce at the same time) also went to Yale and was a member of another "secret" society called the Manuscript Society.

Jodie Foster knew, conversed with, and was the love-obsession of John Hinkley Jr.

John Hinkley Jr. attempted to assassinate Ronald Reagan... who won the Republican nomination for President over Bush's father, George HW Bush.

Prior to this event, Jodie Foster made a movie called "Taxi Driver" in which an obsessed love interest attempts to take the life of a Vice President.

John Hinckley Jr. happens to be the brother of Scott Hinckley (who was one of Bush's largest financial contributors in the race against Reagan.) Scott Hinckley and Neil Mallon Bush (son of GW) had dinner together the day after the shooting

if the WWIII starts tomorrow and assuming that it doesn't start by using nukes; how would USA move it's troops and/or military towards Russia? Hitler used Iran in order to transport it's military to fight Russia. Reza Shah of Iran collaborated with Hitler thinking that he was going to win and betraying England whom he owned his power to!

I have no problem with you disliking Bush, I don't agree with a lot he has done, but comparing him to Hitler?

Here is just a brief overview of criticisms from wikipedia

Bush:
1.1.1 Al Qaeda
1.1.2 Iraq
1.1.3 Torture
1.1.4 Other human rights
1.2 Domestic policy
1.2.1 Civil liberties and expanding government
1.2.2 Economy and Fiscal Policies
1.2.3 Response to Hurricane Katrina
1.2.4 Environment
1.2.5 Dismissal of U.S. attorneys controversy and refusal to testify before Congress
1.2.6 Hostility toward the Poor



Hitler:
Hell, there isnt a criticism page for Hitler. Nobody needs one! Lets just use one thing he did here, and make a comparison.

He killed 6 million people.

He killed 6,000,000 people.

HE KILLED SIX MILLION PEOPLE!



Are people seriously saying what Bush has done wrong is anything even close to the murder of 6 million people?

Oh but if I guess if somebody killed ONE person YOU KNEW, they would be worse than Hitler to, huh?
