If people have this kind of money to throw away, why don\'t they just send me the check. I can use it worthlessly.
Having zero dollars in my bank account I say the same to.
what does a custom license plate cost ? like 40 bucks?
This guy is making a killing. Good for him. I cannot believe what people will spend money on.
Everytime I make grilled cheese now I keep looking for the face of money
that is pretty dumb and i cannot believe people are willing to spend that much money to show that they don\'t like bush. what a waste.
to be honest, i could care less. the last election was more of a decision between a giant douche or turd sandwich, but that\'s just my opinion.
NADER 2008
What is sad is that people think this makes a difference. It doesn\'t. If people truelly felt that way about Bush, the country wouldn\'t have voted him in for a second term. There is no one to blame but us. What else that makes me sick is that people \'hide\' behind this
****. Take a lesson from our parents generation, nothing ever gets done without a revolution. Its that simple. We want change, stand up and fight for what you believe in otherwise, shut up.
The two party system combined with the fact that the democratic party has shifted too far left and is filled with a bunch of pussies, radicals, and
****-for-brains is what is doing us in.
I don\'t think Nader is the right choice either.
I would disagree with the idea that the Democratic Party has shifted left at all on the contrary I would argue that the problem is that the Democratic Party has shifted to far right which in essence blends the lines between republican and Democrat.
I will agree with the folks who say that the democrats are a bunch of wimps. They let the republicans run over them with everything, they are such wimps they wont even admit to being liberal. As if the liberal is a terrible thing to be. I guess when your choice is between 2 rich white guys whos world experience is unlike any normal person I might happen to know. The world of the silver spoons, of getting in to Yale and Harvard and the like because of who you know, getting by on a wink and a smile. Never having done a real honest days work but still somehow mangae to have endless amounts of money to spend and "get by." And That isn\'t enough, they have such HUGE egos that they feel that they know better than the average american what is good for us, they sit in their lofty chairs of elitism pointing their fingers down on the rest of us, making judgements about everything from the environment to what people do in their bedrooms. All the while without care or consequence because they know that none of those laws will ever be applied to them. They are above reproach and the worst part is they know it and thumb it in our faces everyday.
what he said ^^^^^^^^^^^^
If JFK, the man everyone thinks of when they think of the democratic party, was running now, I don\'t even think he could even run as a democrat. The party has absolutely shifted left. No question. What makes you say it has shifted right?
Edited by mistake: Sorry jocelyn, I clicked on the wrong button when i went to reply.
I woudl say it has def. shifted right. You have folks like liberman, clinton, schumer etc all high profile dems that are basically republican light. They have sponsored more bills to limit freedoms then anybody. They all started taking very republican stances toward crime, terrorism, economy censorship etc. Hillary Clinton and Joe liberman might has well be republicans.
The idea of the democratic party being full of nut jobs and the like is very much what the republicans want you to think. There are just as many or more crazy fuckers in the republican party but the dems. dont do a very effective job of pointing that out, hell they dont do a very good job at anything anymore.
The issue is that the republicans have done a masterful job of painting the term Democrat as a horrible person who is unamerican and is not patriotic. So folks who used to call themselves democrats do their best to distance themselves from what people envision a democrat would be and in this case that would be republican. It is just a matter of these folks being shown for what they really are. A bunch of people who care about 1 thing and 1 thing only, their jobs and getting re-elected.
You have bought into Hillary\'s latest campaign. She has been working very hard to seem "more moderate" (more conservative.) She\'s an idiot.
I agree with you about the dems you pointed out, but they don\'t represent the whole party.
My opinions about the democratic party have nothing to do with republican propaganda. I am distancing myself from them not because I fear being seen as unpatriotic but because I can no longer align my viewpoints with theirs. They no longer represent my personal platform. Actually, had I been more politically aware in the past, I probably would have realized that they never did. I do agree that the repulicans work extremely hard at demonizing the dems, but that certainly goes both ways. If you were to take seriously many of the statements from some of the more vocal (and nutty) dems like Dean, you would believe that all conservatives were racist, war-mongering pigs. I also don\'t like how so many liberals and liberal publications (such as the Boston Globe
) make anyone who is religious-minded look like an inferior dimwitted moron. It\'s not very nice, and they will eventually hurt their voter base because so many immigrants traditionally vote democrat, and many of these people are extrememly pious individuals. I just think the democratic party is doing a great job alienating its constituency, and I think it is because there are so many outspoken dems who are too far left.
well, i can\'t say i know a whole lot about politics. but from what i do know, i can definitely say
**** bush.
The problem with extremely pious or religious types as you put it, is that they are never content to just be concerned with their own salvation. They like the others really try to push their MORALS on everyone else. If they wanted to apply the religious rules and doctrines to themselves and live by them no one including myself would have any issues with that. In fact i would encourage it.
I will add this and it is something to consider. Whenever the folks who are currently running the country have had the decision making power we have been at War. Take with it what you will. Under Reagan, cheney rumsfeld and the others were there. we had combat missions all the time, Bush 1 same group of folks and we go to war in Iraq. Bush 2 we got to War again with Iraq.
The other point I will add is that the folks who parade themselves as religious on the political stgae always pick and choose the morality. Ifd they are so religious why do the kill their fellow man. They wage war turning their backs on the very teachings they will shout about when it suits them. They dont do a damn thing for the poor, starving, the Meek and down trotten.
Think what it would be like to be a child in some place where they don\'t teach modern Science or evolution all because a long time ago a bunch of guys got together to create this book and then proceede to tell everyone that it was the word of God knowing fully well they all sat in a commitee arguing what should make it in and what shouldn\'t. What teachings and storys were "true" and which stories were "false".

That is a rude generalization, and it\'s not fair.

Well this is not new information. We all know Bush is a figurehead and is not running the counrty.

What I was talking about has nothing to do with this. I was not saying that people SHOULD make religion a part of their campaign; I think it has no place there. What I am saying is I don\'t like how the leftist media, which I believe to be the majority, demeans anyone who has Christian faith. You could argue about why do they kill their fellow man and call themselves moral till the cows come home. There will never be a satisfactory answer to that. War will never seem moral, it\'s always unfortunate, but sometimes it is necessary. (No, I don\'t think it is now.)

Also, think about what it would be like to be persecuted for your religious beliefs, shoudl you chose to have them, here in the good ole US of A. Doesn\'t just happen to Muslims anymore!
