rantings

Freedom is next to impossible to accomplish. Then, holy shit, you did it! Your dead.
Conflict is a part of human nature.
There will never be peace.
Mother Nature and Earth are both our friend and enemy.
If we can live to the end of the planet's time, are we smart enough to outlive it?
I want to leave this planet now and escape the hate.

Imaginary debate
Moderator: Senator Kerry, what time is it?
Kerry: 9:15 Eastern Daylight time.
Moderator: Mr. President, your response?
Bush: There, you see? That's what I'm talking about. The flip-flop. He's inconsistant. He mixes messages. Earlier in this debate, he gave a completely different answer to a similar question. An hour from now, he'll no doubt give another answer. Ask him what time it is in Iraq, Afghanistan or North Korea, and he'll give you a different answer to each one. What kind of message is that for our troops out in the field? Ask me the time and I'll give you the exact same answer every time, no mixed message.
Moderator: Senator Kerry, your retort?
Kerry: It is 9:17, and we are all much dumber after hearing that.

Dumbest blog I've seen thus far: I'm an intern in New York
Favorite beer: Killian's Irish Red
Many complaints about why the young'ins watch him, but oldsters watch Jon Stewart too. Why? Because he's good intertainment. Then, you watch because it's hilarious. And finally, you realize it's true shit that he's joking around about and it makes you think that much more.
Immagrants think America is "cool", until they stay here a while. Then they find out that they have to work their ass off to get what they heard about-have to.
It is of my opinion that these citizens rock: Conan O'brien, Bill Clinton, David Chapelle...


It would be easier to get Middle Easterners to see Eye to Eye if it wasn't the Americans doing the mediating.

Richard Clark - Genius - until he resigns (under pressure) now misleading us to sell a book. Come on, like now he's not for America...

Crusades- Holy Jihad - Holy Shit - no coincedence!

boycotting McDonald's won't make a difference, because you've got to take care of your own.

Bush puts the shade on science once again with negativity on stem cell research.

Is it considered peace when i want to kill everyone who wants to kill people for their terrorist-like views. And then is it crazier that i want people to be tortured for killing someone in a rage such as arguing with them about borrowing their own car? Am i bad for allowing rape victims to get the morning after pill,but not any ole college student?...

why was there a flu innoculation shortage in 04 in america? because we rely too much on foriegn companies. help from someone else, it's the american way.

Logomachy

Cuba mounted a billboard emblazoned with photos of American soldiers abusing Iraqi prisoners and a swastika overlaid with a "Made in USA" stamp. The billboard faces the U.S. Interest Section's offices. At this office site, there apparently was Christmas decorations including a reference to the 75 dissidents jailed by Castro's government.
Colin Powell: the (U.S.) sign was to show "solidarity with people who are being held and intimidated and whose rights are being denied by the Cuban government... And the Cuban government's response is to...show the world a swastika?... Not wise."
In both counts, the Cubans are doing just what we are doing. We deny the Iraqi's rights and throw them in prison for being against our government. They did the same. America complains about their actions. They did the same. The biggest difference would be that we don't have pictures of them making their prisoners jerk off.


Bush:wrong;war. Newsweek:wrong;riot
The Bush administration is promising a full investigation into Saddam's tabloid picture leak.
Right, just like the Italian agent shooting and Abu Grahyeb, Guantanamo Bay, Iraq's WMD investigations in which no one agreed to the outcomes? Who is to trust the U.S. anymore? Oh yeah, sycophantic Britain.

the effort against piracy

Bush is outraged with China's rampant piracy. There are officials in many countries set out to seek and destroy these cd's, dvd's, and computer programs. Bush says he will not be satisfied until the violators get stiff prison sentences.
I ask, where is this same tenacity when it comes to many other inequalities? How about American jobs or health and retirement benefits?
When I borrow a neighbor's tool, do I owe Sears? This is what happens when there is a huge rift between the Fat Cats and Starving Rats.
How about making the artist's cd's cheaper so I don't feel so bad when I put the two songs I like on a conglomerated(blank) cd and throw the artist's away.

Sonny Bono's widow defends that it is the small groups that are feeling the hurt of piracy, after being questioned about the filthy richness of the bands bitching. However, experience reveals that the small bands put themselves onto P2P for exposure while pissing the pupils looking for legit songs and only getting shitty "covers".
The pupils can't complain because they aren't paying,( for the 4th or 9th time for the same shit they had before) and the puny bands probably don't bitch, but it's the rich m'f'ers trying to be moral and lawyers trying to convince them to give them a job.
Didn't the same thing happen when telephones replaced the telegraph?

Bushisms

"I think what we need to do is convince people who live in the lands they live in to build the nations."
Now, if only we could convince him of this.

..."the mission of the U.S. military will be to be prepared and ready to fight and win war. And therefore prevent war from happening in the first place." Rumsfield-"We go to war with the military we have, not one we wish we had."
First, Bush and Rummy contradict each other. Second, you can't prevent war during war.

If I'm not with Bush, am I a terrorist?

"A political candidate who jumps to conclusions without knowing the facts is not a person you want as your commander in chief."
This is Bush talking about Kerry, not about himself.

No WMD

I would just like to comment on the fact that the search for WMD's is over. But still, based on what we know today, the president would have taken the same action to invade because this is about protecting the American people, so says Press Secretary Scott McClellan.
Protect us from what? Wasn't this the primary justification for preemptively striking and declaring war on them?
The vote in November favoring Bush doesn't mean we are going to stop asking why. I still want some kind of explanation of what we are doing there now and how it is different. People are dying for this cause, whatever it may be now, and that's a good enough reason. We still have the rest of the world judging us. The world looks for us to be moral. In the future, how we dealt with Iraq will be put in perspective. (Baseball players don't vote themselves into the Hall of Fame).

The search has cost millions of dollars, plus lives. I'm at least glad the search is over, for those reasons.
