Colmes is a strawman for the right.. a toothless tiger.

Ya... can't wait for farenheit 911 to come out!
:thumbsup

I think he makes some very legit points, aside from whether he is motivated by money at the end of the day.

I am not about to put myself in the danger zone on this board, but all I will say is that it is possible that the US is not the "great" place a lot of people think it is.

Problem is, by saying anything negative in the supposed "free thought society", typical responses include, "Move to Cuba then....etc..."

I am out.

I am tired of all the bullshit from the left and the right......
too bad most people dont think for themselves.

I think you'll find the people that are usually on here screaming about how the USA is the best country and the best place in the world to live have never actually been out of their own country.

:thumbsup

You can't say anything these days brother!

:thumbsup

I have traveled pretty extensively man...I could not agree with you more.

Go to other countries, third world nations, see the world in its rawest format and how US politics effects everyone, then....

But those people in other countries say one word, and all you get is, "they would not eat if it was not for the US....etc"

All that comes from a country that built a portion of its economy from slavery! But the current peoples were not a part of that, for it is history, but somehow those peoples were a part of all the past fighting that freed every damn nation in the world LOL

your spending theory already got blown out of the water, so now I'll blow your 'no citizen gets into trouble' theory.

Democrats don't give a fuck what you do as long as you don't hurt anyone else. It's the fucking conservatives who want to tell women they can't have abortions, who want to ban Huck Finn and other 'subversive' literature, who want to make you get down on your knees and pray, who want to kill anyone who disrespects the flag, who want to curtail freedom of speech and allow the government to come search your house with no warrant and I could go on and on. I bet you don't convert to democrat though, even after you've just been shown that what you want is the exact opposite of what the conservatives actually DO when they get the chance. Why? Because anyone who can't see these things for themselves is incapable of learning any better. You're too easily propagandized and the republicans are the propaganda and disinformation experts. They rely on people like you. I bet you think John Kerry is a 'flip-flopper' right? Straight from Karl Rove's memo pad to your brain. You should be ashamed.

Also the Washington Post should NOT be confused with a credible news organization. It's owned by the Moonies and they march in lockstep with the conservatives.

http://www.consortiumnews.com/archive/moon.html -- there's some info if you care to learn something, which I doubt.

Thanks for the link. Before posting I called a friend and shared the URL. He's viewing the trailers now. :winkwink:

That's it dude, I declare Jihad on you. Keep an eye out for JumboJets heading for your building :winkwink:

Basic supply and demand foolio, at that time there weren't enough folks to fill available jobs.

Yes, they are good and juicy too :thumbsup

This is so interesting!

Vote4Kerry:glugglug

What you said is so fucking true and obvious. Yet for some reason there is no way to get through to these people, they are totally brainwashed that democrats are the evil ones. Thats why I say republicans are against what America stands for, to me America's roots are based on freedom and opportunity, but they are all for taking away rights in the name of security, they are the ones that want to put pot smokers in prison, they want to limit opportunity to the common person. Fucking Bush signed a law when he was governor of Texas that made anal sex illegal, that borders more of a Saudi Arabia type society than what this country is about. Fuck them and the camel they rode in on.

Their own country? I wouldn't be surprised if some of them haven't even left their own state.

I hate to break it to you Cory, does not matter who the President is, the US is still the best place to live. I know it will pain a lot of non-Americans, but is a fact. The US has tons of flaws and for awhile have been heading in the wrong direction on some issues, but there is no other nation that has every the US has.

And yes I have been outside the State of Florida!!!

:1orglaugh

:1orglaugh

Why would you say something like that!? Not everyone has the same priorities... What makes the US undeniably the best place to live..?

wow... thats awesome... i can't wait to see this movie

you're right, he is getting a peice of his own medecin

ever since i saw bowling for columbine , i knew this guy was anti-american (or anti-bush)


i can't wait to see this movie :thumbsup

Apparently we're the 6th best place in the world to live based on life expectancy, GDP per capita and literacy rate:

For the second year running, Norway has been named as the best place in the world to live, according to an annual report from the United Nations.

Norway was followed by Sweden, Canada, Belgium, Australia and the US - but the bottom of the chart is dominated by African countries.

but of course the author of the article hates America

America, the land of the free:

Countries with the highest prison population rates in the world
Rank Country Prisoners per 100,000 inhabitants
1 Russia 730
2 United States 680
3 Belarus 575
4 Kazakhstan 495
5 Bahamas 485
6 Belize 460
7 Kyrgystan 440
8 Surinam 435
9 Ukraine 430
10 Dominica 420


I'd say we're well off the track, and if we don't get our shit together soon it could get much worse.

Now why am I not surprised you live in Florida. :1orglaugh

Yeah cause Mike's all about the truth!

http://www.fivaxis.com/moore.jpg

That's one pathetic looking motherfucker.

what the hell does this really proove dig ??

other than the fact that we dont live as long as others in the world and that we have a higher infant mortality rate.

there goes dik again posting one sided facts that mean nothing.
now compare those #s lets say to voilent crimes, and other types of crimes.



How about compare the # of political prisoners in those countries ???

Dig, how about compare the #s that really matter
how many people are in jail in those countries for producing porn, selling it, distributing ??



Here are i got a fact for you that really matters

Americans cant play soccer for shit
there is at least 20 other countries that are better than US

Yeah, it's awful living under the yoke of oppression here in Australia!

:1orglaugh

yeah but must suck getting most of your technology from the US
and watching mostly US tv shows, about a year after we do

:)

Joe, but still Australia is probably the only other place in the world i'd live.
Aussies are cool :)

Job growth is still at an all time low and the top 20% got 71% of the tax savings. The average CEO is making 550x more than the average employee where in Britain they only make 14x.

The unmetered capitalism bubble has been expanding and contracting for a while, but it's bursting. Much like the pure socialism bubble burst in the soviet union.

The next depression is what it's going to take to finally get the balance between hand-outs and a free market.

I've travelled to 29 countries, including the USA .

Nothing beats Australia. It's that simple.

The only American television I watch is The Simpsons and Crank Yankers.

I don't care if they're a year old.

what are you trying to say here? US does have a quite high homicide rate compared to most OECD nations. Of course a lot of that is gang related.

except New Zealand (no John Howard, or Alexander Downer) ;) and I am Australian fwiw.

Okay I've missed New Zealand so far.

I spent the day in Auckland on the way to the U.S. once but that's it.

I'll get there eventually.

:glugglug

I would agree. But, understand, that is my opinion and my priorities. Believe it or not, not everyone in the world wakes up daily wishing to be a US citizen.

The US does an outstanding job of pointing out the lowest common demoninator around the world, inevitably convincing people that the US is the supreme being. It is similar to telling your wife, "well, I am a good man because I do not beat you."


US citizens don't listen, they speak. They are proud to speak, without listening. They jump to conclusions. They think that by reading National Geographic and USA Today that they know the world inside out.

I am a US citizen (notice we forget the term American is offensive to many westerners). I DO support our troops, no matter whether or not I agree with the cause. I pay taxes. I do not hate my fellow man. Just because you do not agree with the system, it is not a mark on your integrity.

"It is not always the same thing to be a good man and a good citizen."
Aristotle,

Joe I have respect for all countries. I am a fan of Austrialla, it is one of the places I want to visit it soon. From what I understand it is a lot like the US was 100 years ago in many ways.

exactly.. michael loves america more than bush

I am shocked at the amount of ignorant motherfuckers that frequent this place and support the Bush administration. Micheal Moorer isn't a saint, but GW is the fucking devil. You fucking idiots try and say that he isn't patriotic, that he is motivated by money. How many of you all would be in this business if it weren't for the cash? As far as Moorer talking shit about small business. He fucking right. Survival of the fittest. Welcome to America! Shit or get off the pot! :321GFY
