Normally, I do not comment, but this guy's quote made me want to puke. A true retard in the full sense of the word!!!!

Waffler, I understand your point of view, but first and foremost, Civil War was not about slavery. Lincoln only went for emancipation to achieve high moral ground to get backings from France and England. If you look at it from slaves point of view, even the reason for revolutionary war turns its head and will stare at us that the root behind that war was indeed whether to align with a country that abolished slavery or to be an independent state out of the clutches of King George!

This is a bull shit. Does this PHD degree holder think that the people of the free world will sit doing nothing with their hands tied. Proof is out there for everybody to see. They can not even control Afghanistan or Iraq. Again, to publisher, lets put some inspirational time tested quotes, not some gibberish.

All the while these quotes of late, I feel like is trying to indoctrinate people. I would appreciate, if the publisher would refrain from using outdated messages.

The social psyche of this country is in the strong hold of religious right. You may not believe me. Why then should someone come out and give a speech on religion, be it Romney on behalf of his Mormonism, Kennedy on behalf of his Catholicism, Barak on behalf of his faith in God. To an extent that there even was a debate organized by a priest. Say, something is definitely eating US constitution, and it surely is not termites!!

Well said Jim!!

Amen to Voltaire and RBESRQ!!!!

True indeed!

I love this quote and the bigotry of it!

First off, its good to be back from a long hiatus. I am not too sure if I agree with MP. Connotation may be from his faith, but in no way was he stating that he is being guided by God. This quote is worth mulling over and over for its gravitation towards pragmatism which is a rarity these days, where absolute conservatism rules and liberty is at stake.

HDT is my new GOD!!!!

To those neo-f@#$%ng-cons, if you know Bible, then READ THE CONSTITUTION REEKED WITH OUR FOREFATHERS BLOOD!

To E Archer: There is something similar at work here in AK. http://savefuelak.com/

Hmmm, really?!?!?!?

Just like Jim said, we have a few too many Pauls. But unlike Bernard's Paul, the current Pauls are not dependable. We bailed out Goliath, not David.

I am just happy that Waffler gave this statement 5 stars. Amen!

This is incredible. We live in a society where with a new introduction of gadgets like iphone creates a long long long line in front of Mac Store. I have no grudge against Mac, in fact I am planning to get one end of this year, but what really surprises me is the fact that these lambs so easily seduced by corporation that with a blink of an eye, they have a plastic card out, and they don't know which is their head and which is their tail. Back in college, these credit card companies would sponsor many college sports and encourage fresh out of high school students to sign up for their cards. Of course they would, they want pseudo-financial-freedom. And thus the cycle continues.

@ Waffler: Sir, I think you are wrong. Government is not society in action. It is bureaucratic thugs in action, bailing out rich on the expense of poor. The current action or inaction there of, is not helping me. I still earn the same as I have been for last couple of years. The current upswing in the wall street is not an indication of improving economies, it is an indication of man's greed.

In the wake of current economic situation and the way things are being run by government not only in USA but other major economies, I have to agree with this statement. Unfortunate, but true. Increasingly, the populist ambitions of neo-cons and leftists alike, we are in the course of bailing out banks and financial institutions, in the path of so called Economic Socialism. What really frustrates and anger me, is that with all this going on, why in the name of God, is it that we are not seeing people in the middle who suffer day by day. Where is the respite for them? Government bailed out corporation in the expense of people. The corporation will not bail out government, people will, with higher taxes and fees. I can not stand this, and I hope people see whats happening to our wealth through their naked eyes. WAKE UP.

Very true in line with the phrase, "history repeats itself".

What about me, eh?

Here is what I think, and I am not trying to be partisan. Infact I am not, because the party I am looking for is just not out there!! I believe this statement to be true. All these times on these campaigns, in the name of trying to pass on "their message", all my layman eyes can see, are "calculative moves" and "certain positions" on issues. If one runs for an office with a core conviction that guided him to that point of running for an office, then why these "calculative moves"???? Why I ask!?!?!? Deception, thats what it is. Amidst all these deceptions and these hyper-bloated talking heads with creed of socialism and capitalism, all they spout out is their bile of lies. And we the people, instead of seeking that inalienable right of self determination and self existence, we look at these parades and soap opera and we fall for these bloated false promises, in thus doing we elect morons. This is not the country the founders thought of!?!?!

Unfortunately statesmen like Ron Paul are sidelined by talking heads and partisan media house.

Like a Maggot!

Very true indeed. We definitely do not need someone who talks sound bites or tries to convince us by reading from a paper without knowing a single word inked. We definitely do not want to see them interviewed and cringed on our couch as we see them fumble so utterly. And there are those who are utterly in quest of controlling our lives day in and day out.
