The politics of panic in Politics JoeUser Forums

This is how bad people take over governments. First make people insecure then offer them anything that almost sounds reasonable and you have a new government. It worked for Hitler and Soviet Russia. Well it worked for a while then things got worse. <p

Someone stole air force one! Someone and no body knows who stole the president’s aircraft and flew it over New York yesterday. When the White House Press Secretary was asked who people could go to for answers he suggested the press call the White House. </sp

People are panicked because the government wants panic. We are told it is bad so it is bad. By the way, how many people has this thing killed? How many people has the N-5 flu killed? I remember the last time we panicked over swine flu; the government rushed the vaccine out. One person died from the flu and 500 were hurt by the vaccine. Wish we had GWB back in the driver’s seat he was not prone to panic till the end of h

[quote]I want to apologize; my temper go the best of me. It shouldn't have. I'm just tired of the baggage of my past mistakes hanging around like it is. It's annoying to say the least; I mean, God forbid someone mature and grow after being an arse. Anyways, I apologize again - I was in the wrong.[/quote] As a Christian it is normal to screw up, it is better when one learns from ones mistakes and adjusts.

If we were as torture happy as we are portrayed then we would be doing it to anyone and eve

[quote]In the English language, the rules state that one must capitalize God, because of it being a proper noun, specificying an existance; implying an existance, and going back to the previously mentioned faiths. Why capitalize the G in the word god when it really isn't in existance?[/quote] I understand what you are suggesting and using your logic then sincce it is in caps it proved the existance of God. Seriously, the founding fathers clearly did not want a national religion like i

[quote]Then there are videos showing the "victims" walking into, and getting out of pose. An example was when the AP posted a picture of "victims" of isreali mortar... except the SAME AP reportor took pictures people walking towards the wreckage, putting on fake blood, and lying down in poses, then getting photographed, then leaving... but the newspaper only published the pictures of the "dead", so he went online and posted the whole collage.[/quote] <span style="font-family: Verdana;

[quote]1. In God We Trust has nothing to do with the founders and framers of our nation! The motto was first established almost a hundred years after the nation's founding. It was done by Secretary of Treasury Chase, because of the civil war and peoples' increased clinging toward religion, etc.[/quote] In order for it to be constitutional it has to conform to the intent of the framers and founders of the nation when not actually written in the constitution.

[quote]1. American culture, by your logic, would believe in YWH, Buddha, etc. as well. American culture, is more than just Christianity, it is Buddhistm, Taoism, Confucism, etc. It is also: Japan, China, Russia, etc. It is every person that comes into this country and contributes to it.

[quote]Why the heck does any of this have to be mentioned on bank notes? It's _money_.[/quote] Because the American culture is one that believes in God. God is mentioned in the Declaration of Independence as well as our money. We as a nation believe in God, the founders believed in God, and they felt that submission to God is what is best. Look at it this way, if there is no god then who is being hurt? If there is a God that is all powerful do you really want to piss him off?
