skyrider 0 #34 November 1, 2010 Quote Quote Quote Quote Quote Quote Just a reminder, .. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tLlF5YMf7Yc Tripe Voting is Tripe? Glad "you" feel that way, I feel better knowing you aren't voting! As I explained earlier, if the video simply said, "vote", I'd agree with it. It goes well beyond that into partisan attacks. That's the tripe. Feel free to post a video that is not partisan....I'd liek to see it! If I had the time today, I'd make one from scratch. FADE IN: The American flag waves. An image of the US Constitution is superimposed over it. Emphasis on the words, "We the People . . ." ANNOUNCER Your vote matters. Take the time tonight to read your voter pamphlet and consider the issues. Don't let anybody make up your mind for you. You're part of the process. Make sure your voice is heard. Vote. FADE OUT: So your just blowing hot air...Thought so, You had nothing to ADD to a thread, but desided to jump in and slam it...Gotcha! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
billvon 2,426 #35 November 1, 2010 >SO, its the same? No. Vulcan is a pretend place. It's not real; it's a Hollywood creation. Therefore it's different than quoting a real legal principle from somewhere else. It's fun to watch people do screeching 180's on the Hollywood issue once the Texas Supreme Court gets involved.

I see nothing wrong with encouraging people to take a more active role in the process. I think we've gotten to this point because the middle has been passive and allowed the extremists to hijack the dialog. Maybe the sleeping giant of the middle is waking up at last. mh ."The mouse does not know life until it is in the mouth of the cat." Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
