[quote]Maybe a real third party candidate, one who can put some real pressure, one that can actually scare the other 2 party candidates is what is needed to bring out some real "Hope & Change" for this country.[/quote] They will have to be convincing. The game is stacked against anyone opposing the big two. This is one reason the Socialists are subverting the Democrat Party (and doing a good job of it at that.)

They may as well open the military to handicapped persons too. They might love their country and want to fight for it too. We can spend billions and make the military environment more handicapped friendly too. Special parking at the motor pool. A fleet of "Rascals" bringing up the rear of marching troops. Electric stairs chairs to get them up into tanks and fighter planes. Just open it up wide to every special group their is. Let's have the last part of the US government that isn't an em

The problem is few blinked when he should these tendencies in the past (... clinging to their god and guns) and the elitists even applauded. Now the same group are looking at each other and saying, "He can be referring to me". Then you have others that don't mind this man calling them "stupid". They got exactly what they voted for, Obama didn't try to hide it. Now many are realizing he wasn't just joking around. That or they are just not listening to the facts or science and are just scared a

[quote]Not many, but I can think of two. The FAA's Civil Aviation Medical Institute and the Arizona DAV. Well, you asked. [/quote] I haven't seen a national survey on either. The former, I doubt if many even know it exists (perhaps that helps) and the later only affects AZ. I could be wrong but I doubt many would give high marks to their DAV nationwide. Check Masons article.

If DADT passes, h arassment charges will inevitably arise. I'm curious how it will be handled, since the parties involved will consist of a special, protected class of citizen and one that may not be. I don't envy anyone it that position.

Perhaps if only she were unfaithful, a good stoning would be in order, He, or did I miss the article expressing outrage over that one? Why should stupidity be a ticket out of responsibility? If she were that mentally retarded, she should have been under constant care by a responsible party. The fact is people with a much lower IQ than her have led productive lives without killing anyone. She was smart enough to try to have some else do the deed, so she was aware of the reper

How does one expect to add medical coverage to 30 million new people that for whatever reason (including not wanting it) did'nt have it, make pre-existing conditions a non-issue, and expect no additional cost for everyone to pay? Prior to Obama care 80% of Americans were happy with their health care. How many government services today have an 80% satisfaction rating?

[quote]You guys need to develop a sense of humor. [/quote] Nothing against a little humor, just the way the content of the message (and it is intended as a message) is delivered on unsuspecting people. I wouldn't have a problem if someone went to a show to see this sort of thing. Otherwise it leads some folks to believe others are expendable if they don't act or feel a certain way. Remember "life not worth living" in the 1930's? IMO there is enough brutalization of humans by other hum

Reply to The Anger Business in The Media JoeUser Forums

I don't believe anger persuades many folks either. Nor does happiness for that matter. These are byproducts of what we feel after accumulating enough snippets to form an opinion on a given issue. IMO it a misconception to thing anger is driving an issue. It may appear that way. People may attribute a cause to anger. There has to be cause to have effect. Anger is an effect. Example: Two people are in a heated argument as you walk by. Do you get angry? Probably not b

[quote]I got married only because I could not get a civil partnership - in the UK that is only possible for same sex couples.[/quote] Every state of the union (that I'm aware of) a man and woman can have a civil union at most any city hall by the justice of the piece. Some mistakenly call this marriage. In Virginia if a man and woman, unrelated and having sexual relations, cohabitate for seven years they can be considered in a "common law marriage" but actually a civil union, no
