You know, its funny.....I was watching CNN last night and they were talking about the pesidential canidates for about on the Anderson Cooper show. The whole time they were talking about them, all they disscussed was how Obama and Hillary were just going back and forth arguing like 5th graders. Not once did they discuss any issues..NON! They showed footage of each canidate speaking in front of large crowds and instead of actually campainging...All they were doing was smearing each other....Not once did either canidate speak on any major issues. We are about to enter a Great Deppresion and all the two morons can do is argue back and forth. Then they show McCain speaking to a large crowd and he is talking about more war...WTF??? Is anyone listening? Is anyone paying attention? If you go out and ask people who they are going to Vote for, They are quick to answer....but when you ask them what is their favorite policy about their canidate........they dont know anything

Go on with your lives, look as if nothing is wrong, everything is under control. And if you ask questions..."well then you just might be a terrorist and we will inforce the Patriot Act" ...
Ha reminds me of something that George Carlin said

I couldn't have done better myself. To be blunt, we are circling the drain. No one seems capable of thinking for themselves, they need the media and the government to help them herd together into thinking we are headed in the right direction. And those same forces conspire to scare those same sheepish masses into cowering in fear at the slightest mention of certain things people were conditioned into fearing in the first place.

Im the opposite I guess, I couldn't tell you who Im voting for in November, but I know which issues matter to me. I want to make my own decisions about my life and my future with as little outside interference as possible. Plain and simple.

Quoted from "SL Screne name" cause that would be cool.

I sure will. "In tctaco's opinion..." lol yeah i will. i don't think i know most of your guys' real names anyways. as for the paper, yeah i can post it up, however, it will be 7-10 pages of research and opinion, so be warned, i am very biased on some issues... i promise no ones opinion will be taken out of context though.

Free thinking is the only way to go. I would not have it any other way. It has never helped my popularity, or my social standing, but it leaves me with a clear concience.

Oh... and the government can go screw!
I have not learned to love "Big Brother", and never will.

In my case anyway, I do not mind you using anything I say in this thread, and you can use either my real name (stated in my profile) or my username, your choice.

And DEFINITELY post that paper after you are finished with it. If it has quotes from this thread, it must be interesting.

Imagine this is just a big game to them. Imagine that your vote really does count for your favorite canidate...Imagine they all fight on TV to see who America likes the best. Imagine that at the end of the day, they go home and call each other on the phone to tell each other, DID you see what we said about you. HAHA. Imagine all this, is just a popularity contest to them, because at the end of this year, Which ever canidate becomes President wont make a difference. The plan has been layed out, way before Bush was in office and even before clinton was in office. It has been proven that History repeats itself and if you look back to the past.....who do we resemble the most. And its funny that you speak of Venezuela....In Aaron Russo's film - America: Freedom to Fascism. He speaks about his friendship with Rockerfeller. He speaks about how Rockefeller told him that we would go into Afghanistan and Iraq looking for people in the mountains and then to Iran and to Venezuela to Remove Chavez to seize control of their oil. Well the first two have happened, and tensions Between US and Iran seem to grow as we continue to build pipe lines accross their contries...and if you look and see what is happening in Venezuela...it all seems to be coming true.....Venezuela is having problems with Colombia...and who do you think the US is backing on this one. Chavez has called the President of Colombia a "Gangster" Who is working for the "North American Empire"

Lol, bumped from the grave.

Figured I'd bump it to share this with everyone.

Possibly the least biased and most entertaining thing I've seen regarding the election.
