Indeed - a sadder and more accurate disposition of capitalism.

Sad but true - there is no enemy worst than ourselves.

Perfect!

Why isn't he running for President.

Excellent! Yes, tell me why the Christian Right hate gays so much perhaps they should be let out of the closet. If only the Judges could leave their politics at home and remember why they are a Judge.

Bravo Reston. Otherwise why have a Constitution - America is as from a social experiment as China is with the Child reform act. If you call social security, and programs that help the disadvantaged a social experiment I'm all for it.

Though, with a correction ..."should be"...preserved

David, no you have it wrong it's the Republicans that rape the coffers of Social Security Fund (this fund was created by the Liberals) and then blame the Democrats. It's all there to be seen let me know if you need back-up. This has always been the GOP MO do it and then go on the offensive and blame the Democrats - the examples are endless... We have 68% who do not approve of the job Bush is doing - until we change our system we will continue to have Presidents that would not pass one hour in open dabate. I like the way the Republicabs hand over the country every eight years for the Democrats to clean up the mess they left behind and what a mess they will leave behind this time. Though I may be wrong, they may use those ........... voting machines again.

Yes, MLK was a wonderful individual - he could of converted me but alas I did not know him so I remain an Atheist; Buddha is still my way, along which I find peace. Much of his world was taken up with Vedic traditions and those date 2000 BC i interesting enough one of the Vedic prays is "behave towards others as you would behave unto yourself"

That's more like a Bush statement - I can't believe Clinton said it - I agree with Mike. At least having sex with a consenting female (and not a boy) he didn't kill 3000 of our armed forces and wounded over 30,000 and that is just the tip of the iceberg. Our nation is presently corrupt and totally without a foreign policy that works. The actions of the Bush administration have created more terrorists we are providing them with the very tools for recruitment - I wish for the days of Clinton - OK he may have said some silly things but looking at above I see we are no different.

Bravo Reston

Bravo Reston

But it's tough going...

What a myth - All men (and women) are not created equally, free and independent. Tell that to a new-born child with AIDS and whose parents have just been killed. When will we stop this ridiculous rhetoric and start getting off our buts to do something about it. We talk like this while Darfur is allowed to happen – write your representative and tell them to divert some of the billions goings to contractors in Iraq where a bag of laundry cost $100 (please see Iraq for Sale).

Amen Jack, Logan, and E - The trouble is that the conservatives can NEVER take responsibility for there own Watch they ALWAYS blame it on the Democrats or Liberals. The Democrats ALWAYS came back to save the day. We won two WW and we continue to save America from its own greed.

Then they are not Liberals... I thought brownshirts were the product of a fascist army like Hitler and Mussolini. I wouldn't call kids storming a stage (I think it happened twice) brownshirst. Ken, I suppose you are against social security. Fortunately there are many Liberal Republicans otherwise we would be a real trouble. There are also many Conservative Democrats lets just revert back to the definition of words and not rely on the media or personal agendas.

Immorality is the domain of the Republican Party - the list is endless with fraud, child abuse, corruption, greed, murder, etc., etc. Leave Liberalism alone it can defend itself very easily against and compared with the current administration. Without Liberalism America would be another despot, another quagmire of corruption, fascism, and fundamentalism. Washington and Jefferson were only a few there were many other liberals that were the very foundation of America. Alas, if we are not careful all that will be lost to greed and we will slip into the annals of the shortest lived empire. It's amazing how the far-right attack Liberals by the very things they themselves are perpetuating. The fascists were very clever of this type of propaganda and it's going on today -- when you have a one party state and winner takes all what else would you expect. This last 6 years has shown a steady decline along all fronts of humanitarianism and world peace. O we have so much to learn and I wonder if we are able to advance and pull ourselves out from this desperate situation we are in today.

Yes, but this can be abused - "most" is relative with regards to those they crush under the yoke individual liberty.

His words are not what really matter - what matters is the intent and the heart that expressed them. The world today is fast becoming a pit of inequality - this, more than any other time, is being spearheaded by the current administration. The world sees the corruption and greed in America and how easy it is to manipulate its people with convenient sound bites - if the worlds most powerful country can behave in this manner then let's follow them - what's good the Elephant is good for the Gander. Please, please, bring back the Liberals before we sink into oblivion.

Excellent! One day the bell will toll for you.

O dear we have so far to go, I just hope there is enough runway."...springs identity of our highest interests..." how true of today. This is highly subjective - one man's right's is another man's injustice. It's time we tried another approach - let's not bury our head in the sand with our guns and rights.

Third world here we come get ready for us.

This is an excellent definition

Well said Dick - to be a Liberal also means you think of the less fortunate - greed in not a characteristic.

David, That was old stuff America gave Iraq to fight against Iran
