My fellow Americans, I have a feeling that you and I are a lot alike. We both value the Constitution. We both love living in America. We both believe in God. We both watch Football and/or Baseball. We both are saddened by the memory of 9/11. There may be other similarities, too. We both might have brown hair. Or blue eyes. We both might drive the same car. So here's my question: why do you hate me? I certainly don't hate you

Thanks, friend. I'm sorry if I put words in your mouth, stevendedalus. Where'd drmiller go? I was just beginning to enjoy my debate with him.
Excuse me....But if he won the election we voted him in. Case closed, next case. BTW Bush DID win the electoral vote! Final score Bush 271 Gore 266 Excuse me, but did I SAY that Gore won the Electoral Vote? No, I don' t think that I did. But again, I think maybe you didn't read my whole post. Maybe
Actually you inferred it when you said " It's only "sedition" because it's anti-Bush? After that Grim agreed with me. So basically you tarred him with the same brush It seems very clear to me that you're avoiding the issue here. Maybe I did "tar him" with the same brush, but if so it was inadvertent.
And BTW his way IS the American way. We (the american people) voted him into office. *Shakes his head* WRONG. The Supreme Court voted him in. Yeah, he "won" the election, but you can't say that the American People voted him in. I mean I guess if you're gonna get technical, the Supreme Court jus
My point, just to clarify, was the fact that he (stevendedalus) is/was attempting to call for the troops to think about how they felt and then vote. It's not like he's calling for a mutiny or a coup d'etat. He's calling for VOTES. Not a revolution, not an insurrection. VOTES. This is not your dictionary definition of sedition (and speaking of which the President is only a "lawful authority" because the People make him that), this is one person voicing
It's only "sedition" because it's anti-Bush? That's rich. It's almost like you're calling him a traitor. That someone would attempt to inspire someone to think before they vote is "sedition" is new to me. One would hope that we would all think about this. And another thing: I had hoped the day would never come when one of my fellow Americans is charged with "sedition" for speaking out against the President. I can see my hope has died.
Since I already voted for Brain/Pinky or Spike/Jet on the "other" thread... Hiro (Snow Crash)/Alex Cross (any James Patterson novel) or maybe... Superman/Batman
No, if Bill Gates became President the entire country would lock up every few weeks and would have to be reinstalled from scratch. ROFL. Too funny. BTW... I change my serious answer to Dean. Not sure about running mate. My write-i
All I really have to say is "right on" sandy2. Right on. And to Jockoj: wtf? Is this satire or what?
What is a Patriot? Webster defines it as one who loves his or her country and supports its authority and interests. What is Patriotism? Webster defines it as love for or devotion to one's country. I was raised to believe that America was the lan
I certainly don't think Americans are stupid. Some Americans are misinformed or misguided, but definitely not stupid. I don't claim to know everything, nor do I claim my opinions are correct. They're simply that: my opinions. That being said... I myself always thought that since America itself was built on ideals involving freedom, liberty, and justice, this also meant that its citizens were entitled to form their own opinions about the government, the
Great, great post. I'd add my name to that list, but I'm sorta new here and haven't really spoken up. Yet.
Myrrander, I really loved this post: That's right, I've got every dead person in all the local cemetaries registered to vote. We're even registering our PETS. It's going to be the biggest theft this country has ever seen. We're coming for you, CONSERVATIVE AMERICA! We're GOING TO EAT YOUR CHILDREN! We're GOING TO BURN YOUR BI
Kerry/Edwards (serious choice) - by a slim margin (and yes, I've made up my mind). Brain/Pinky or Spike/Jet (write-in choices).
Firstly, I welcome your (Lee1776) reply. Secondly, if I may continue this (thus far) civil debate: "The reason why Islamic radicals attacked us in the first place is because of our decadent lifestyle invading their lives. That’s the social decadents that we thrive on now days. It was not because our government was invading their country, it was our lifestyle. They will not stop until that threat is gone and the only way for them to end that th
Politics - n - 1. From Latin "poly" meaning many and "tics" meaning blood-sucking creatures. I forget where I saw this joke but I think it fits.
I'll tell you what's "wrong" with American voters: half of them don't trust Kerry. Even though I plan to (begrudgingly) vote for the guy, I can't say that he'll do a better job than Bush has. All I know is he won't make matters worse in the world. Or so he claims. The thing that has me voting for Kerry is that he's spoken many times of his plan to make America a country that the rest of the world doesn't hate. And, for all of Bush's efforts to
