Look at it through the Terrorist’s perspective.

15 02 2010

-America has a surplus of so many items, and no american to them seems to give any away.
-America has a large military, which has for a fact committed abuses repeatedly throughout history.
-Fundamentalists in America proclaim America a “Christian Nation” and Islam “The Devil”
-America has wealth and stability many countries in the Middle East do not.

See, if we begin to look at it from their perspective, we can sort of see why, and try and damn solve this not by terrorism and torture, but by trying to reach out and correct those feelings towards us.

Conservative Tea Party Gone Too Far: Applause for Return of “Literacy Tests”

9 02 2010

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/26315908/vp/35304909#35304909

Rep. Tom Tancredo speaks in front of the Tea Party Convention in support of returning to the Literacy Tests at Gaylord Opryland Hotel.

The Tea Party gone too far? Do Republicans supporting the Tea Party (Yep, like Sarah Palin) support the return of Literacy Tests that were used in the south to prevent African-Americans from voting? That the Voting Rights Act condemned? That goes against our Constitution?

Perhaps they should get their brains out of the Declaration of Independence and into our real founding document.

When a Republican was asked for a response in this question:

What do you think the message is when you’re saying Obama voters cannot pass a basic, civics literacy test?

He gave this response:

Well,… You know…. Tom Tancredo gave a fantastic speech last night. I think hes an amazing politician.





Sarah Palin haz all the answers on her palm.

9 02 2010

I thought she was a little old to be cheating by writing notes on her hand. Sheesh, “Energy, Budget cuts (with “budget” crossed out), Tax, Lift American Spirits.” Cant any well spoken politician remember that off their own memory?

This was all, of course, after she bashed Obama for using a teleprompter.





Church Group arrested for Child Traffiking in Haiti

1 02 2010

A Church Orphanage operating in Haiti finds itself in legal trouble over the claimed illegal border crossing of children over the Haitian border to the Dominican Republic, following Haiti’s stricter adoption laws. It seems however, that not all of the children are even orphans. While the orphanage administration claims to have signed authorization, no papers of such were presented at the border, and the fact that some children are not orphans and have live parents leaves doubts to the authenticity of the orphanage’s story.





Movie Review: The Invention of Lying

24 01 2010

Bravo! This blatant truth-telling society is intoduced to Mark, who invents lying. He invents the afterlife in an obvious satire on Christianity and the Right-Wing.

I give this a 10/10!

Personal Views: Terror and Torture

18 01 2010

The attacks of 9/11 were criminal acts committed by legal immigrants inspired by hatred from radical groups origionating in the middle eastern area.

It was not a declaration of war, and if it was, on whom?

The Military went into the Middle Eastern area with other allies to weed out the group’s foundations as foreign criminals , not as any declaration of war.

Torture is a criminal act. The act of a person holding another captive and torturing them is a crime by most legal standards, and it is the same (or should be) within intelligence agencies or other government and military groups. They are not above the law. The Constitution clearly defines this. Anyone found to act out torture on any human being should be arrested.

. The Bill of Rights also defines torture going against the fifth amendment.
