  1. And what the hell does any of that have to do with the statement that a gun makes killing easier? Doesn't mean killing will stop, blahblahblahblah, just simply that a gun makes it easier....... Jeez......
  2. maybe, than there are quite a few Islamic women who do not see themselves as second rate citizens and are quite happy with their life.
  3. That would depend on whose version of Freedom we are going by.
  4. Why don't you tell me what specifically is wrong with the article?
  5. Ohh I thought it was funny, even though it was exactly what the poll was trying to find out. Just don't see what it has to do with reporting quality.
  6. I think that any person who relies on just one source of information to make up their minds and draws conclusions has a very high chance of being completely misinformed. Knowing a bit of the background and history of the media outlet provides a basis for understanding slants and editorial remarks.
  7. Since in your long tirade you didn't address the original point I guess you agree with me.....
  8. If I was bashing anything, it was the world that we live in.... I do find it ironic that many freedoms are being suspended so that one person can talk about freedom. If you don't see some irony there...... The levels of security are unprecedented, we are beyond the simple statement of: we have to protect our president.
  9. I guess just for you Ron I should have specified, after the invasion and subsequent findings.
  10. With a country as diverse as Iraq and the turmoil it is in, we really need some more information on how this survey was conducted. Let's say for instance it was conducted by phone, now do the same survey but do it via intercepts in a rural area. I would be pretty sure the results would be very different.
  11. They were just reporting the outcome of a poll...no editorial comments, no conclusions, letting those reading the article decide for themselves. I think that is good reporting, I find it scary when they start drawing the conclusions for you and most people swallow it blindly. Hence, most of those who believe Iraq has WMD and was involved with 9/11 get their news from FOX.
  12. He was at that time, matter of fact he is still getting paid for that.
  13. I was expounding on your statement, not argueing against it...... [sigh] yeah........
  14. What cracks me up is that freedoms are highly suspended in DC this afternoon so that the president can talk about how he is going to bring freedom to the rest of the world......
  15. Just as much as Catholisism and Protestantism is....just ask the good folks in Ireland.
  16. That will never happen, they would have to throw the current VP in jail.
  17. Funny enough the neighbourhood I work in ensures that they staff their stores with multi language staff due to the enormous ethnic diversity. I wonder what would happent o those businesses when they would only deal with those willing to speak English. Now if only we could force those Quebecers to speak English iso of that idiotic Joile.
  18. specially since the US had a big hand in setting up and designing the OFF program in its various forms.
  19. People in Florida, Mexico, Texas, California etc better start learning how to speak spanish then, since they are starting to outnumber english speakers. It is okay though, they are simply doing what happened 500 years ago to the natives. You can fight it, but in the end you will lose anyways.
  20. Not really, relatively easy to acquire guns legally in Canada. But then you wouldn't really know about that would you, doesn't show up in an NRA sponsored booklet.
  21. Not according to: Immigration and Naturalization Service v. Chadha
  22. Well, that makes it all okay then. Lots of anger inside you buddy, take a deep breath, it's okay...you get to keep your big gun.......
  23. I don't. The resolution called for use of force. the letter the resolution was based on is quite funny to read now, many of the reasons have since turned out to be wrong. The President has turned this conflict into a full fledged war. Congress has no way of stopping the President or this war or offer any direction or limitation. The only thing they can do is stop funding.
  24. Article I section 8, Article II section 2. The constitution does not allow congress the power it has given away with the War Powers Act or the resolution post 9/11. Madison: The Constitution expressly and exclusively vests in the Legislature the power of declaring a state of war the power of raising armies. A delegation of such powers would have struck, not only at the fabric of our Constitution, but at the foundation of all well organized and well checked governments. The separation of the power of declaring war from that of conducting it, is wisely contrived to exclude the danger of its being declared for the sake of its being conducted. Funny enough, your Supreme Court has refused to take this issue into consideration in any form that it has been introduced.
