I am curious why none of the media covers the most important aspect of the Malvo shootings. If you look at Newspapers on the dates when the shootings are underway you discover something I find quite interesting. The shootings begin to dominate the news the day before the debate on the Iraq war starts and they catch them the day after the declaration of war??? If you ask most people "do you remember the debate about starting the second Iraq war", they will all answer "yes of course". But if you followup with the question "name one point in the...

I recently received a reply to a post that stated: "This should be beneath a "freeper". Sad." So I asked.. what is it that makes a FReeper? My reply (and I will admit was tasteless) was also questioning. It stirred controversy and was removed? Why Moderators? Can you not tell me? Did it not meet with your "FReeper" mentality? According to all posted guidelines it should be listed but no, you chose to delete it. Yes.. I'm the first one IBTZ, I'm sure you'll nick me for speaking up..

Just saw this on NewsMax's website. They've got some poll up about whether Bush's domestic spying was legal or not. Personally, if people in the US are talking to al Queda, then we SHOULD be monitoring their calls. It's about protecting America!

Mr President: I have nothing to hide, but perhaps the Secret Service does. I would not mind my interview tape being released, and will sign any necessary privacy waivers. Is anything on the tape sensitive? Perhaps. I do know my way around airport security; I ws certified to bypass it till Feb 2002. Maybe it's too sensitive because it would so drastically alter the picture of which agency had the clearest picture presented pre 9/11. Is it true what the agents said; that you hung up on them? The Truth not only sets free the Just, it always wins in...

Could all problems cause move by US to take aggressive action. Could problems justify such moves? Maybe.

On March 7, 2005, Mr.and Mrs. Miranda arrived home, in Monroe, Walton Co., with their newborn (4th child) bundle of joy. While they're enjoying and bonding with Lil. Alyssa, their two sons were excited to have finally their baby sister home. In the meantime, anxciously awaiting for three o'clock to come, Alyssa's 6 year old sister can't wait to come meet her baby sister. However, within two hours of Alyssa being home, a worker from DEFACS arrives with the sheriffs, and warrant to remove Alyssa from the home.

Many argue that communism will never be possible because of "human nature". The essence of this false argument is the belief that a communist society would consist of an all-powerful central government that would tell everybody what to do--and would therefore undermine the creative initiative of individuals and the search for happiness. • This argument is based on two false assumptions: (1) It assumes that a communist society will look like the former Soviet Union, or the current China, North Korea, etc (ie: corrupt police states with a feudal-style ruling class) (2) It assumes that people will only work in...

2004 Year-Ender By Gwynne Dyer The world has been on hold this year. Interesting and important things have happened in many countries, and most people have scarcely noticed that international politics is becalmed - but it is. The normal business of the planet has pretty much slowed to a halt and we are all gently drifting downstream together while we wait to see what becomes of the United States - and, as a result, of the rest of the world, for the US is still a key player in almost every game. We may be waiting some time. The war...

I kind of liked the show. Leno had been getting a bit boring. A woman on late-night has some definite possibilities, just not sure if she is the one.

a war that hasn't started yet, but will soon, and no one really cares about their protest including the media

I am proposing a challenge to both the FR and DU. The first party to introduce a bill to get lawn darts aka Jarts legalized in the US will get my straight ticket support.
