<p>Actor and musician Henry Rollins, in his most recent LA Weekly column, asserted that white people would “lose their minds” if they had to deal with the vestiges of institutional racism that black people face on a daily basis. “If white America experienced a fraction of what black America deals with regarding law enforcement, incarceration, the court system, employment and countless other facts of life, they would immediately and collectively lose their minds,” Rollins wrote.</p>

....In other words, the prize was conferred by experienced politicians who seem to know exactly what they were doing. Expressing its particular approval of Obama's "vision ... of a world without nuclear weapons," the committee wrote: "Obama has as president created a new climate in international politics. ... Only very rarely has a person to the same extent as Obama captured the world's attention and given its people hope for a better future. ... For 108 years, the Norwegian Nobel committee has sought to stimulate precisely that international policy and those attitudes for which Obama is now the world's leading...

In this war freedom should come first not after! In New Hampshire the Motto is Live free or Die! I don't need Bush spying on law abiding americans and taking our freedoms. Anyone who surrenders a square inch of freedom to the government in the name of saftey is a traitor and should be treated like one! Let the Bush Fashists all drop dead! Filthy Commys! LET FREEDOM RING!

Yes. I am new to this website and was wondering why my account was banned? I posted an article I wrote about how Buddhism not Islam is a threat to America and is the fastest growing religion instead of Islam. I noted how Buddhism denies the existence of God and the divinity of Christ, I also made note of how Buddhists practice an evil satanic ceremony called doku. It is a ritual where Buddhist monks use a doku drum made of the hide of a white christian baby to conjure up demons for human sacrifice. Using three fingers they beat...

John Kerry is back into the breach.  He's engaged on multiple fronts, delivering up salty opinions and traveling the country in a self-described, "fighting mood." Kerry promised, "I told people I was not in this for the short term.  We came close.  We have nothing to hang our heads about.  We received 10 million more votes than Bill Clinton when he won in 1996.  The fight goes on.  It is as simple as that." Joel Connelly, the Seattle Post-Intelligencer columnist and sycophant, makes the observation that a lot of people -- including dissatisfied Democrats -- believe Kerry didn't do a...

<p>I cannot simply stand by and watch you guys lying and lying on this website, about the veracity of John FORGED Kerry, about the patriotism of Jane Fonda, about the authenticity of the forged Bush Guard files...they are authentic forgeries. The White House itself handed those forged documents out after CBS gave them copies...now you guys are questioning them?? LMAO!!</p>

And what if, this coming November 2, at the same time as millions of Americans, all the world's peoples went to the ballot box to vote? There would be legitimacy in their participation in the election of the president of the world's greatest power. Simply because their lives, their future, depend on it in one way or another. It would be a symbolic gesture, a universal speech in observation of a fact and a direct and unambiguous way of saying that the fate of the world depends in large part on the American presidency. The Vietnamese and the Chileans at...

  Whether it was necessary or not, the Iraq war happened. Arguments against it during the victory celebration make eyes glaze over.    Now we have to deal with the ''facts on the ground,'' a phrase coined years ago by Israeli Ariel Sharon and now frequently used by U.S. Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld. It's another way of saying, ''Now that we're here, what are you going to do about it?''    The facts on the ground in Iraq are simple. With only a shadow coalition standing in the wings, the United States and Great Britain stormed Iraq and conquered...

<p>A French friend once told me, describing the French character, "France could never have a Hitler. You see, if a leader here tried to implement some crazy policies and force people to follow his will, we would all hit the streets and tell him where to go." Of course, the French sometimes do that when the proposal is as benign as restructuring schools.</p>
