Answer 1

Because they always are. Put the simpliest way. Oh and dude, if you really care what long haired freaky whatever says, don't. He couldn't find his *** if he was told where it is.

Answer 2

Ron Paul talks experience and common experience, yet then maximum folk of people have not have been given any use for it. people like to go with the inconsequential and immoral and unworthy people as Presidents. What did Ronald Reagan the buffon did to u . s . a . ? What did the criminal Bush Senior do ? What did the lecherous bill Clinton accomplish ? What did the fool George Bush achieve this some distance in the final 8 years ? So, if Ron Paul talks experience, he would be nowhere as we see. the subject is that as usa collapses it takes alongside with it a number of economies. by Sept,08, the inventory markets throughout will crash. that is while third worldwide worldwide places China and India will take over the super ability positions.

Answer 3

Perhaps you are meaning Jerry Falwell and his Zionist neocon allies!
They did in fact predict the end of the world more than once.

If you missed the bash of last October elections, I am having another one upcoming November... you are invited :D.

But before then , watch for some highlights of some new Republicans coming out the closet with some weired scandals.
Naah... not Bush... he is too stupid to get involved with anything else but Coke!

Answer 4

One induvidual doesn't speak for liberals.Many liberals surely didn't say that.
Liberals are right more than conservatives.
Oddly enough, the right-wingers worship their fringe element (and we all see where that got us) while the leftwing often wishes we would just go away. The irony of this is that as W.R.O.N.G. as the extreme right has been (and who can doubt it?), the extreme left (being their polar opposite) has been just as right (as in correct). And we, of course, are where all of the good left-of-center ideas come from.
We were right about the war in Vietnam. Just like we said, it was all a big lie cooked up by the CIA and the military-industrial complex to enrich a lot of fat cat at the expense of thousands of American families and millions of Laotian, Cambodian, and Vietnamese families. We were right when we said it was illegal, immoral, and just plain wrong.
We were right when we said we couldn’t trust the government to tell us the truth.
We were right back in the 60s when we said we needed alternative energy, an environmentally sustainable life-style, and that we should stop trying to force everyone into the same mold.
But for all we brought to the mainstream culture, they hated us for it – many of them did at least.
They hated us for our freedom. Who’d have thunk it? That, and because we told them the awful truth, that their way of life was not sustainable. They just did not want to hear it.
We were right when we said we needed to curb the excesses of capitalism or the gap between rich and poor would become a divisive and oppressive nightmare.
We were right when we said that prohibition would not work and that the laws against drugs do more harm than the drugs themselves ever could.
We were right when we said that Nixon was a rat and a crook, and that the CIA was running heroin in Vietnam.
We were right when we said that Reagan was a wolf in sheep’s clothing and a disaster for America.
We were right when we said trickle-down economics was a rip-off of the poor.
We were right when we said they were torturing and murdering innocent people in SE Asia, South America, Central America and elsewhere, and that we were training foreign armies to do those things at the School of the Americas at Ft. Benning, Georgia.
We were right when we said that Wall Street, the government, and the military-industrial complex had formed an evil iron triangle that has a stranglehold on our country and is pushing us inexorably into a state of total war to serve their own nefarious ends.
We were right when we said the mainstream media was becoming a propaganda machine.
We were right when we said the religious right was filled more with hatred and intolerance than with love or Christian charity.

“You know, I don't know about this doctrine of assassination, but if he thinks we're trying to assassinate him, I think that we really ought to go ahead and do it. It's a whole lot cheaper than starting a war.”
~ Pat Robertson
We were right when we said love is the answer.
"That's all nonviolence is - organized love."
-- Joan Baez
We were right when we said workers were being ruthlessly oppressed and unions neutered and pressured out of existence.
We were right when we said the government was spying on American citizens.
We were right when we said we were sending too many people to prison for all the wrong things.
We were right when we said pot wouldn’t hurt a flea, was in fact a damned fine medicine and should be perfectly legal.
We were right when we said that the government wants to take away our civil rights.
We were right when we said the Republicans were bible-totin’ fascists with fake smiles and daggers up their sleeves.
We were right when we said that we all deserve to be freer but that the government intended to make us less so.
We were right when we said that there is something bad wrong with a government that spies on Quakers, peaceniks, and the guy who wrote All You Need is Love.
We were right when we said Bush would be a disaster for America and that the Republicans were evil bastards.
We were right when we said the Republican Party stole the elections of 2000 and 2004 (a subject no one wants to discuss anymore
We were right when we said Bushco should be impeached to keep them from doing further harm to our planet and our country (not to mention other peoples’ countries).

And you’re embarrassed by us?

That’s almost funny – except that it isn’t.

So where is the respect? Where’s the love? Where is the acknowledgement that we are the leading edge of thought and that eventually everyone sees our light?
"I’d rather vote for something I want and not get it than vote for something I don’t want and get it."
--Eugene Debs

When will we start listening to the smart people?

When will we recognize their courage and the clarity of their vision?

When will we thank them for leading the way?

Some of our moderate and more centrist brethren need to come down from their high horses. My advice to the uptight, the moderates, and the centrists is: Take a deep breath, wiggle your hips, and lighten up. Stop being so superficial and judgmental. Stop caring what the wingnuts think of you. Quit letting them set the agenda and call the shots.
There is no better way to support those fighting in Iraq than to guarantee that no more of them die in the service of political miscalculation.
No acknowledgement of course that we on the far left have been saying the same thing for months and even years – actually ever since they ignored our advice not to do it in the first place. Welcome to the enlightened left.

Answer 5

You know what, they were right, and I tell you now that your president has cast the world into tribulation. The Crimson Tide has begun the world on a march to the Apocalypse of Armageddon, to be commenced in less than 7 years. As far as rapture goes, most were wrong about this. Christians need to tried also, as many have fallen far from the vine. For your president, the trial has likely concluded.

Answer 6

They felt and still feel they were robbed! The thinking for yourself mechanism is fouled up. These are not the end times. We are well on our way to better times.

Answer 7

Shame on people for making fun of the beliefs of others. The US is still a country which allows freedom of religious beliefs. Why doesn't PC work both ways, is what I'd like to know!

Answer 8

And the socialistic security checks keep gettin' mailed. Kind of think of it, Grandma got a raise here while back.

Answer 9

You know, if you try something new and actually use your brain, you'd realize the following:

1. Many years ago, liberals wanted black people to be allowed to vote. Conservatives screamed" The sky will fall". Black people got the vote anyway. The sky didn't fall.

2. Many years ago, liberals campaigned for a five day work week. Conservatives screamed "The sky will fall". We have a five day work week. The sky didn't fall.

3. Many years ago, liberals wanted to institute Social Security so people would avoid poverty in their old age. Conservatives screamed "The sky will fall". Despite the best efforts of conservatives to undermine Social Security, we still have it and the sky didn't fall.

4. Many years ago, people were routinely sickened or killed by tainted food and unsafe products. Liberals instituted regulation to safeguard the public. Conservatives screamed "The sky will fall". The public was protected and the sky didn't fall.

5. Many years ago, people were taken horrendous advantage of by their employers. Liberals gave us unions and the minimum wage. Conservatives screamed, as usual, "The sky will fall". The sky still hasn't fallen.

Two thousand years ago, conservatives were changing money in temples. A liberal drove them away. Maybe you've heard of him. He preached love and understanding and looking out for your fellow man. He was murdered by conservatives.

Starting to notice a pattern here?

If we had listened to conservatives all along, we'd still be living in caves.

Looks like it's the conservatives who are always wrong.

We liberals feel awful that Kerry had the election stolen. But we don't feel bad for him or for ourselves, we feel bad for America. The Supreme Court appointed the worst man in our history to ever disgrace the office of President.

I'm not Christian but I know I'll feel positively rapturous when Bush belatedly returns to hell.




BTW, "Justgoodfolk"- VERY well said.

Answer 10

there have been so many societies that thought it was the end times. Even in Russia every time you turned around they thought it was the end times. With their history, I can see why they thought that.
