[quote]Sure, but an opinion without covering all the bases, tends to give credence to false assumptions. Do you or do you not agree with Nugent and his comments?[/quote] Well I don't follow Nugent's every word (did see him in concert about three years ago, loved his PETA comments), but I know he speaks his mind without the PC BS and that I can appreciate. I like some of his songs (what person that enjoys R & R, would not like the guitar solo in "Strangle Hold"). I'm not bothe

[quote]I do find it ironic though. Politics has devolved into a game of finger pointing and deflection of any sort of responsibility or blame.

[quote]You realize you both are doing the same exact thing you are accusing him. You're pointing fingers, and, quite clearly, saying "So what? You guys do it."[/quote] No just that the hypocrisy exists. If one is to speak out against, well anything, one must ask themselves what is their motivation for doing such. If the answer is to disparage someone you disagree with on other issues, then why not address those issues. If it is to address a specific wrong, then it is probably not a go

About the only thing I like Wiki for is the reference sources, I will use it movies and such, if I want to know more on trivial matters. I was busy when Hannity was on, but I caught snippets and it seemed quite well put together. It follows the money trail. I would recommend it to everyone that believes their money on "green" products is really helping, then make up their mind for themselves.

Another rant.... how quickly we forget (or chose to ignore) quickly statements like those from Jeezy and Jay-Z, at an inauguration ball none the less: "The rappers shouted from the stage things like F*** Bush, praising the one who threw shoes at him and those who moved him out of the White house. Surprisingly, Jay-Z joined in the elation that his President was a black man, a N*****. Both men repeatedly used the term." But I'm sure Dan posted his article in strict se

Hey DG, you would have got a kick out of Hannity tonight. He had a special about the "green scam". Much of it was on global warming.

Great review...bad place for it. If you want more gamers to read it, you should post it on the games forums, not the political forum. I'd hate to see your work, which I thought was an enjoyable read, be missed.

It's good to hear a story about a teacher doing a great job. I had some great teachers in my early years. I also had some of those hippy types, later on toward the end, but I was too set in my ways for them to have any influence on my direction. I feel sorry for the kids that have to sit threw the "preach" and get too little of the "teach". The best teachers always will be the ones that show the doors, but let the student choose their own to open.

You put a broad label on a large group. Especially many that produce your food supply. Just curious was that group of Muslims that Obama spoke to last week just a bunch of hayseeds (or date seeds) as well? After all they stick to "their fervent belief" in Allah.

Just because he made a movie about the environment (Avatar), doesn't make him an expert. I know this guy has an opinion, and he's welcome to it, but just because he is famous doesn't give him a "credibility" pass. BTW Just how much diesel did he burn up in the Atlantic, filming the Titanic, to put some coin in his pocket?
