insulted by being bullied by statements like republicans saying vote for us or suffer a bigger attack than 9/11? but you're ok with the exact same tactic by the dems, who say vote for us or more terrorists will be created? that's not a scare tactic? are we supposed to believe that "more terrorists" won't attack us. that's what terrorists do: attack. and if there are more of them, logic demands that there would be more attacks.
Ohhh this is juicy... Now, it is to my knowledge that Democrats have been ranting about "George Bush is creating more terrorists." Now it would seem to me that George Bush holding office would be advantageous to terrorist leaders if this holds true for terrorist recruiting.

Do liberals ever piece the dots, or just start talking?
hi ya, tmw32, i am considered a liberal also, but to answer your question here, i think that some libs follow the latter with a great deal of blabber..after watching the vote in the house regarding that piece of shit fence down in texas, i'd say that liberals and democrats are about as spineless as a jelly fish without their antennae.......democrats and republicans are one in the same anymore. all i know is that i'm tired of voting for bonds and measures and empty promises, where the money is appropriated for the rich to get richer....
neither are doing me any favors...

It's all how you digest it I assume. Personally, I think the administration's handling of the border is reprehensible. Somehow I feel horribly betrayed for missing the "Train-o-Brainwash" that was supposed to have told me differently. I'm sure I'll come around...
But your words are appreciated.

its on page 2 genius. it was locked not deleted. i dont save filth like that. please feel free to get the fuck out of the country at any time. sooner the better, you never know when things will get worse. just go.

The economy has polarized to the point where the wealthiest 10% now own 85% of the nation’s wealth. Never before have the bottom 90% been so highly indebted, so dependent on the wealthy.
GOP ad was the funniest thing I've seen in a while the only thing that worries me is that many people will be motivated by the scare mongering and propaganda and continue to vote for a party who have done nothing but further alienate the USA from the remainder of the world and also internally to create a wider gap between the have and have nots......
Personally I'd vote for the people who'd put " death of a president" into action and assassinate the fucker ................but then again that may just make a martyr out of the brainless twat.....

I live in a beautiful country too, and i don't need a visa to visit america sorry to dissapoint you.

this is what bothers me about this ad. sure it's offensive and blatantly manipulative. it's the most crass exploitation of the sept 11 tragedy i have ever seen, and it's kinda sickening. but it's no more than what id expect from the party that has parlayed the death of thousands of americans into a political football allowing them to screw their constituency (im not talking americans in general or liberals, im talking even their supporting republicans, most repubs i know, even the die hards, feel they've been betrayed and sold out by dubya and his inept admin).
what worries me is that i dont have enough faith in the american people to see through the bullshit. im afraid the ad will work and even those conservatives i know who have finally seen what a horrible job their party is doing of handling the country's business, will buy into the shameless exploitation and fear-mongering of this ad and continue to vote for the people they know have let them down... solely becos those evil, scary dems will invite bin laden into the white house and help him plan more attacks (which is ridiculous). im afraid of this more in terms of what it says about the american people than policy (which can always be righted if the right people get into office). my faith and confidence in their basic decency and intelligence is already badly shaken over the past few years and falling for this bullshit AGAIN would pretty much destroy it.

Seems like you're doing your part to widen the gap. Well done.
Perhaps your culture has taught you that political gain comes through assassination - I understand thats how some people are raised, but to me that is an abhorrent notion. I hope you get better.

Dont travel too much I see. You dont need a visa to travel to and from the U.S. to Canada or Ireland.
I meant if you get citizenship at another country. do you keep american citizenship forever? I dont know. I digress. dumb comment. soulsing is my friend
People here, in general, don't see things as going badly...at least not enough to take a stand against it. They only see that their own lives are surrounded by comfort and convenience. They fail to realize that these problems are growing bigger and bigger and will eventually effect them, as well. It seems that the only way to get people to wake up and start caring is for some of this shit to start directly effecting them too. That's the only thing that might shake the apathy off.
Well, arguably, 9-11 was a huge disaster and could have done this. But it didn't ... All it did was lead to more violence and warfare. I don't know what you guys have in mind, but its pretty freaking hard to see how further disasters are going to cause people in the U.S. to embrace peace and/or a liberal sociopolitical agenda, whichever goal you guys want more.

I mean where they actually see the harm their own govt is doing to them and elsewhere. They don't seem to notice the erosion of their rights and the police state they seem to be setting up...but there may come a time where you can't ignore it any longer.

I actually agree with this point ... People don't see it well enough. I guess we differ a bit on how to make people see.

I 'spose we do. You can't force anyone to see anything and people are so selfish that they really dont care as long they have their comfort no matter how false it really is.

But if this were true, no social change would ever happen. And it does ... Albeit slowly at times. People have the capacity for altruism ... However buried it may be, especially in times of great strife.

People haven't began to look at the big picture yet. They are happy in their ignorance as long as everything is going relatively smooth for them. They won't begin to actually work towards a better big picture until the shit starts hitting the fan a little closer to their own doorstep. Only then will they begin to see it for it is.
