Same goes here. If I do piss you off please let me know and I'll make the change. Me too... I hope you weren't taking my article as a response to yours... it was more a response to everyone who says I hate america when I don't.

Lose 10 pounds in 10 days... it seems like everywhere I go people are becoming fatter and fatter, and its not really that I dislike fat people, its more that it is sad to see this happen that leads me to right this article on what the federal government should do to take care of this growing epidemic. Now, first lets start out with the good things its doing:<

So Puerto Ricans must speak English even though they are considered US Citizens, or is law only going to apply to the states and not the terrorities? Last time I checked I think all schools in the United States teach English, of course you can argue if it is proper English or bastardized English. Do we need redundant laws

I am a proud owner of Toyota and Acura products. In the past, I have owned cars from each of the big "three", even though only 2 are still american car companies. They were horrible cars. I mean horrible when compared to my japanese cars. Toyota knows how to make cars. I would be more than happy to purchase an America car IF: 1) It was within $10,000 dollars of a toyota or acura product 2) It had comparable build quality as assesed by JD P

Funny that no one has mentioned our neighbor to the North where the presence of two national languages hasn't presented too much difficulty (except for the occasional attempt by the French Canadian's to secede). I think I fall into the English as the national language camp, barely. However, I am gravely concerned that the

I hate America. I thought I didn't, but apparently I do. So I wrote a confession, Sandy, check it out: Link I just can't hide anymore. Lol. One of the best written, best satires I have ever seen. Actually, it would not really be a satrie... more of a ... i don't know how to classify it, but EXCE

It is proven that kids (and adults) learn content more quickly in their native language than in a foreign language. In fact, it takes about seven years for (average) non-native English speakers to become sufficiently proficient in academic English to be able to keep up with native English-speaking peers. It makes sens

I was watching an episode of West Wing, and it was discussing preventing a bill making English the national language from passing. I mean, I consider myself to be left leaning, but come on, we should have English the national language. English should (if its not already) be taught to all students in all schools, and to become a citizen you should be required to be proficient in english. We are an english country, we need to stay that way.

Grim, I never was in favor of government run schools. I said we would give loans to the students to pay for college.

Translation: Americans are a fearful greedy lot that are easily manipulated into voting like mindless sheep. And they are led by simple minded, black and white thinking fools who just can't see how complicated (or "nuanced") the real world is. Left wingers, by contrast, are deep thinking men and women of subtlety whose message is

it was facetious... but I forgot to complete my thought. anyways.. to continue: Kerry has stated that he is not in favor of the Patriot Act. HE is against the patriot act. How can you say that is not in favor of the liberty of the american people? HOW.

Reply #3 By: Draginol - 10/17/2004 12:43:31 AM NY times endorsement means little these days. It's gone so far left in the past few years that it's like getting Michael Moore's endorsement. The NYT remains one of the most respected newspapers in the country and throughout the world.

I agree, it seems a bad place to hide aircraft. Also, I do believe it has been concluded there were no WMD's and there was no capacity to produce them.

sandy2 - As per your request, I shot a look at your article. My critique: it started off rant-esque, steered into good territory with the references to how you love your country, and then shot back out straight into rantsville by attacking the Right in the same ways you felt they attacked you. I can tell you honestly that Cacto s

Jockoj, I strongly disagree with you (unless your argument is satrical, which, after reading your message, is very possible) First, disagreeing with the government is NOT unpatriotic. If it was, the right-wing people could be considered "unpatriotic" for the stuff they said during Clinton's administration. Second, in Ameri

I have had it up to here (indicates eye level) with some of the users of this site constantly calling me and other independent minded thinkers treasonous, anti-american and America-hating. I don't know any american that hates America. I don't know anyone that hates capitialism. We all love america, its just that some of us are independent enough to question some of the things that our government does. Some of us loved what was happening in this countr

How about him calling us "ignorant people that don't deserve to have a place in the world". Now does that still sound like someone who loves America to you? BTW the quote was given to an audience in London,England. Besides calling 1 person stupid is a far cry from calling an entire nation stupid. Or do you like being called st
