just wondering how many ex dubs have served in the military.

where did you serve?

yeah me and my buddy Fidel helped liberate Cuba but then I got killed in south america by the CIA, they thought that by burying me in an unmarked grave and chopping off my hands so that I couldnt be identified people would forget about me but instead they made me a martyr.

The Dixie Chicks

by Stan Conroy in

i don't understand the logic of boycotting the dixie chicks because of the comments the singer made about being ashamed that bush is from texas.

it doesn't make sense to me.

keep in mind that i'm just a canadian, so maybe i'm just not tuned in to the american way of thinking.

Azalo

the whole Dixie Chicks scandal was created by the media, mainly Clearchannel, which as has been mentioned is a very conservative company. Their concerts are still sold out months in advance, their record sales are at their highest. If anything the whole thing worked to their advantage.

Political campaigns disgust me

i do not care if you endorse the republican party, democrats, independents, or even the green party.

but to see such inordinate amounts of money go into campaigns disgusts me.

the economy is flailing and people are homeless and starving, all the while these fatcats live high off the hog and mingle at dinners while kissing one another's asses.. this is not a post directed specifically at any candidate.

Azalo

People who cry over how much athletes get paid are just jealous. CEO's make more in one year than atheletes do in their whole career, now that is disgusting.

As for campaign finance I agree with Reborn I think that every candidate who gets the necessary signatures to be put on the ballot should get a set amount from each state where they are on the ballot and thats it. They should work like they had to in the old days. I am going to vote though because aside from dissent and protest it is the only voice that I have.

Islam's Hour of Judgement

by metatron in

countries, governments, and social systems all can encounter a special time of judgement - a unique moment in history.

when they must face reality and survive - or wither away as another of humanity's dead ends.. the muslim world has entered such a time.

they must progress or face a destruction of their own making.. i'm shocked at how few people actually appreciate the danger that 9-11 exposed.

all religions are created to keep their followers (subjects) in line, IMO. Islam is no worse than any other religion. There are dozens of texts in the Bible that can be interpreted to mean that you have to kill non-believers. All of your arguments are coming from a completely one-sided and ignorant perspective. I mean how can you back up a statement like "They seemed nice but now I know that they must be plotting to kill me" (very loosely quoted, but you get my point). Just the other day I heard of this crazy religion where the followers killed targeted clinics and doctors, oh wait that is christianity and it happens in the great bastion of human rights and freedom, the USA.

azalo- revolution with what outcome

well since you asked... I believe that sometime in my lifetime the middle class will have virtually dissapeared, wealth and power will be concentrated in the hands of a very few elite (its already this way in many ways but most people just dont realize it yet because there is still a significant middle class) which will lead to socail unrest and eventually revolution. ok that is a very simplistic, stupid explanation but its the best i can do right now, i just cant think at 2:47am, I'm surer there is someone witha similar viewpoint who can articulate it much better, there are tons of other factors that will come into play, the environment, overpopulation, etc.

Evil slaving at District Conventions.

by avishai in

jw
friends

anyone plan on clowning these fools at their conventions?

i don't necessarily mean shouting, holding placards, etc.

but i do mean putting evidence of their covering up child molesting around.

Azalo

What about using corporate pressure? What I mean is protest in front of major Hotel chains that give reduced rates to the JWs. Or start a letter writing campaign to Hotels urging them not to give these rates to JW's. No one wants to be associated in the public eye with alleged pedophiles and even if it didnt work, if done on a large enough scale it would be a major media story. I dont know if I worded right what I am trying to say but its 0233 am so sorry.
