BS. We fight these Wars because someone is looking to get something out of it. Spreading Democracy is such an Out & Out LIE! You really think we're fighting for the people and our Headshed's don't have an Agenda?
Anyone care to guess what country gets Money from US citizens who in turn write it off on their taxes? That's a F*CKING..........loss for words because its messed up.

Good Grief.............he/she made a slight mistake but does that make them insensitive? He was talking US perspective so if it doesn't apply to you then guess what..........it doesn't apply. Your snappiness makes you qualified for the "Insensitive Clod" title for this moment.
I totally agree. Obama is probably more of an American citizen than most that inhabit the Country. He is a product of us and yet can't get anywhere based on his name or skin color. WTF!
As a retired Military/Government Worker and Union member that lives in Upstate New York. I'd like to see someone who hasn't been involved with too much Washington Politics. Hillary is Corrupt and Gender Biased. If any man hinted the way she has in her gender leanings he would have been drawn and quartered. I don't like who's backing her. As far as McCain is concerned he is nothing like what he stood for 8 damn years ago and more people today would line up for him if he actually stayed with his principles but his rhetoric has changed and maybe he's a bit too old. He won't pick Bobby because the problem with the majority of Americans is they don't trust Politicians and the tend to default to White Males as leader. Don't ask me why. Just plain weird. I am thankful of the time to travel outside of my country and get some perspective. I bet Obama picks Oprah as his VP and that will settle the White Women voting issue.
These "Doctors" need to outside and stop dreaming up excuses/disorders to keep themselves employed.
The Reality is people shouldn't care what someone else is doing as long as it does not hurt anyone else.
Examples are:
From Antagonist "Your on that Computer/Xbox/CellPhone/Watching TV all the time!"
Definition....Your not doing anything I feel is productive.
Answer is stop buying new BS to distract your kids. As an Adult if your significant other is too busy then move on.
Why do we seek ways to make life more complicated? Move on and stop taking things so seriously.

This is the first thought I had about this potential device when I read about it this morning. Imagine pluging everyone in. How about the ability to send back info via to the brain using this device. Essentially the Brain firewalls/filters the eyes and ears but this could be exploited to plant thought and images, or cloud Judgement! I saw couple of weeks ago there was an article about sending High Frequencies messages to people with almost pinpoint accuracy. Turning left when I should have went right. Leaving you with a question of "Why did I do that?". Sounds like a good plot for a Sci-Fi Movie. Eventually they'll have DRM for the brain and you'll have to pay a fee to walk memory lane.
Alot of Neat Science that will be used against us if Corporations have their way. I guess we're on the verge of really being enslaved but too stupid to see it. Certainly seems like the Matrix is possible to achieve.

To followup I'd like to add that "not addressing the issues that bring you down only stops you from re-inventing yourself". To become a better you. Many times people are attracted to labels to drive away people or gain attention when if they actually took a chance instead of being complacent they might be happier than they were. Knowing or seeking alternatives or have a choice, using your voice.
Trust me. I've been unhappy at times and depressed but never took any antidepressant whatsoever. After a few years and being 46 I see that I control my destiny. I just have to get meddlesome agencies and professionals put in their place so I can help my children see the same way about life in general.
Being depressed is a natural state of consciousness along with being happy or whatever emotions a person may have. People have to start listening to friends and understand what giving support is as opposed to giving advice on how to fix a problem. Being that our lives are so choatic now it allows the Mental Mongers (Psychiatrists, Drug Companies) as opposed to the Disease Mongers (Doctors, Drug Companies) the abilitiy to exploit us and drag out our problems and get paid for it!
Take this example. Why is it mostly boys get prescribed ADD/ADHD medicine just for being boys because they can't sit still and have alot of energy or are bored by what they are being taught when the answer is as simple as boys learn differently than girls and maybe........just maybe need a different classroom environment. Maybe we need better teachers. Blah Blah Blah. My son has been on Antidepressants and ADD medicine all of which I was against but anytime his mother or the school said boo they went and push medicine and my hands are tied but now a Doctors order supercedes my wishes. What I know with Common sense is my son needed a change that these folks couldn't bring themselves to do. As long as you have an enabler "his mother" (variation of the enabler in the addictive sense) telling him he won't like something before it is presented or served to him, or says he's always been depressed then how can he get past it and see that at least as a child those matters for him pale to the issues he'll have as an adult if he can't learn how to let things go. Thats what is the major problem for those depressed. Letting go.
Mind your comments in respect of "well you don't know what I've been through" because I'm sure most people have something buried in their Pysche. The aim is to see it for what it is and if you have the same problem after many years then maybe you need to move or get some new friends, change jobs.
I love hearing from peoples perpectives from all over the World. I celebrate the fact we all do not think and act alike and fear the day when we do. drDugan? I like your views but its a sad fact you can't change a person's mind EVEN with facts unless its a life altering event. Even then bits and pieces still fall from the sky.
