1. Jesus, of course not. I'm just telling that capitalism often gets in a way of freedom and people get hurt.

    Of course he's anti-USA. 80% of Americans are anti-Iran so that's kinda expected.
  2. Sod the rest of youse, this bloody election lark just shows how ridiculous the current electoral system is that we have here. 9.9m votes for the Tories, nearly 300 seats at the moment - 6.2m votes for Lib Dems...50+ seats? Ridiculous. Sitting here praying for a Lib-Lab coalition when the dust finally settles.

    We aint ant-Iran. We're just anti A-Jad. (I've given up on spelling his name)
  4. I've determined that the American left is nuts. After reviewing the coverage of the atemmpted times square bombing I've determined that:

    A: They genuinely hoped that the bomber was a Tea-Party goer, or some other ant-Obama activist.

    B: Were disapointed when he turned out to be just another Jihadist.

    Just my two cents.


  5. 80% of Americans dont care about anything that doesnt directly affect them or prevent them from going about their daily lives......

    He's right.


  7. Come on, Yogi….you’re studying journalism, you should know better than to throw out an arbitrary number you can’t back up with any source. I won’t do it, you shouldn’t either.

    I dont think the question has ever been polled by a major source.
  9. I give you, reasons why liberals fail.

    If a conservative doesn't like guns, he doesn't buy one. If a liberal doesn't like guns, he wants all guns outlawed.

    If a conservative is a vegetarian, he doesn't` eat meat. If a liberal is a vegetarian, he wants all meat products banned for everyone.

    If a conservative sees a foreign threat, he thinks about how to defeat his enemy. If a liberal wonders how to surrender gracefully and still look good.

    If a conservative is homosexual, he quietly leads his life. If a liberal is homosexual, he demands legislated respect.

    If a person of color is conservative, they see themselves as independently successful. Their liberal counterparts see themselves as victims in need of government protection.

    If a conservative is down-and-out, he thinks about how to better his situation. A liberal wonders who is going to take care of him.

    If a conservative doesn't like a talk show host, he switches channels. Liberals demand that those they don't like be shut down.

    If a conservative is a non-believer, he doesn't go to church. A liberal non-believer wants any mention of God and religion silenced. (Unless it's a foreign religion, of course!)

    If a conservative decides he needs health care, he goes about shopping for it, or may choose a job that provides it. A liberal demands that the rest of us pay for his.

    If a conservative slips and falls in a store, he gets up, laughs and is embarrassed. If a liberal slips and falls, he grabs his neck, moans like he's in labor and then sues.

    Discuss.
