    THE REVOLUTION WAS NOT A "POPULAR ACTION" MOST COLONIALS WERE LOYAL TO ENGLAND. BUT WHEN GIVEN THE CHOICE OF INDEPENDENCE OR ENGLAND THE PUBLIC CAME ON BOARD. SMALL GROUPS CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE! STAND UP FOR YOURSELF.

    BUT MARRAGE IS A RELIGIOUS AGREEMENT THE GOV HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH IT. IF GAYS WANT TO GET MARRIED FIND A RELIGION THAT DOES IT. FOR THAT MATTER FIND A RELIGION THAT BELIEVES IN TOLERANCE TO HOMOSEXUALS. DO YOU KNOW THE BIBLE CLEARLY STATES THAT HOMOSEXUALS SHOULD BE KILLED? IT IN LEVITICAS CHAPTER. NOW I'M NOT SAYING GO KILL HOMOSEXUALS. I'M JUST SAYING THAT IF YOU BREAK FAITH WITH YOUR CHURCH DON'T DEMAND THEM TO SUPPORT YOUR LIFESTYLE. PERSONALY I THINK THAT YOU SHOULD BE ABLE TO GET THE SAME TREATMENT FOR YOUR ROOMMATE AS IF YOU WERE MARIED. HELL BEST FRIENDS WOULD DIE FOR EACH OTHER WHY NOT BE CARRIED ON YOUR INSURANCE POLICY. IF YOUR ROOMY LIVES OF YOU CLAIM THEM AS A DEPENDANT ON YOUR TAXES! THE MAIN PUSH THAT THE GAY LOBBY HAS BEEN HAVING IS FOR INSURRANCE COVERAGE AND TAXES SO THERE'S YOUR SOLUTION WITHOUT STEPPING OVER RELIGIOUS BELIEFS.

    BUT CHARITY IS THE CHURCHES RESPONCIBILITY NOT NOT THE GOVERMENT. LET YOUR CRACK SMOKING NEIGHBOR DIE. HE MADE THE CHOICE TO SUCK A PIPE IN THE FIRST PLACE. THE "SOCIAL CHANGES" THAT THE CRATS WANT ARE JUST TO EXPAND THEIR VOTER BASE. "IF YOU VOTE FOR ME I'LL GIVE YOU MORE WELFARE. THERE NO NEED FOR YOU TO TAKE ANY PERSONAL RESPONCIBILITY FOR YOUR OWN ACTIONS." THE HELL WITH THAT. SPEND MY TAXES ON SCHOOLS AND MILITARY NOT CRACK HEADS AND HOARS!

    TO REMAIN SILENT IS TO CONSENT. LAW 101. THE FACT IS THAT THE POLITICIANS HAVE NOT PISSED YOU OR MOST PEOPLE OFF ENOUGH FOR YOU TO ACTIVLY GO AGAINST THEM. THIS COUNTRY WAS FOUNDED BY EXTREMIST.(WE CALLED THEM PATRIOTS)IT HAS BEEN CHANGED BY EXTREMIST (CIVIL RIGHTS MOVEMENT, ABOLITIONIST, SUFRAGE MOVEMENT, ECT...). SURE FOUNDING A NEW POLITICAL PARTY IS EXTREME BUT ITS POSIBLE AND YOU WILL GET SOME ATTENTION. JESSE VENTURA SCARES THE HELL OUT OF REPUBLICANS AND DEMOCRATS ALIKE BECAUSE HE IS AN OUTSIDER AND HE COULD JUMP OUT FROM BEHIND THE PODIUM AT A DEBATE AND BEAT THEM WITH ANYTHING HANDY. PERSONALLY I BELIEVE THAT IF YOU CAN'T VOTE (IE UNIONS,COMPANIES, FORIENGE GOVS) YOU SHOULD NOT BE ABLE TO GIVE A CANIDATE MONEY. TAKE AWAY THIER FUNDING AND THEY WILL LISTEN TO THE PUBLIC MORE. THE PROBLEM WITH THAT IS THE PUBLIC IS FILLED WITH POTENTIAL JERRY SPRINGER GUESTS. KEEP GOVERMENT SMALL AND THERE IS LESS CLOSET SPACE FOR THE SKELETONS.

    IT'S NOT REALY A QUESTION OF GOVERNING YOURSELF SOMUCH AS THE FACT YOU HAVE SOME BASIC CIVIL RIGHTS THAT PROTECT YOU FROM THE GOVERMENT. WHY IS THIS IMPORTANT? BECAUSE IT INSURES THAT YOU ARE NOT PERSECUTED BY THE GOVERMENT FOR YOU PERSONAL BELIEFS.(IF YOU DON'T THINK THIS IS IMPORTANT TALK TO AND OLD JEW) THE US IS THE ONLY CONTRY IN THE WORLD THAT YOU CAN SAY "I DONT BELIEVE IN WAR I WON'T FIGHT" AND YOU DON'T GO TO JAIL. IT'S CALLED CONCIENT OBJECTOR. THE STATE OR THE PEOPLE, THOSE TWO AMBIGIOUS GROUPS TO WHO PRIVATE CITIZEN ARE NORMALY SACRIFICED, DO NOT HAVE THE POWER. PRIVATE CITIZEN HAVE THE POWER OF THE VOTE. GEEKS HAVE THE POWER TO FLOOD THE WEB WITH ANTI-CANIDATE SITE AGAINST ANY IDIOT THAT WANTS TO TAX THE WEB OR LIMIT ACCESS. YOU HAVE THE POWER TO SUPORT ANY SOCIAL CAUSE YOU WANT THE GOV CAN NOT DICTATE THAT TO YOU. WE ALSO ENJOY THE MOST LIBERAL ECONOMY IN THE WORLD. THERE IS A REASON AMERICA IS NUMBER ONE. BACK TO THE FIRST POST, YOU HAVE A RESPOSNCIBILITY TO YOURSELF TO VOTE FOR THE CANIDATE WHO PERSONAL VIEWS MOST AGREE WITH YOUR OWN. IF YOU DON'T VOTE DON'T BITCH! PERSONALY I LIKE ALAN KEYES OR MCAIN BECAUSE THIER VIEWS AGREE WITH MY OWN. BUT IF THEY DON'T WIN I KNOW I WON'T BE THROWN IN JAIL FOR SUPPORTING THE WRONG PERSON. ALSO REMEMBER JUST BECAUSE THE CANIDATE MAY KNOW ABOUT TECH ISSUES DOES NOT MEAN THAT THEY WILL ACT RESPONCIBILY IN REFRENCE TO THOSE ISSUES. OR ON THE FLIP BECAUSE THE GUY DOESN'T KNOW HOW TO TURN HIS COMPUTER ON DOESN'T MEAN THAT HE DOES NOT UNDERSTAND THE ISSUES OF ACCESS, TAXATION, AND PERSONAL FREEDOM. IF YOU PROTECT THE INDIVIDUAL HOW CAN YOU CONTROL THEM? -STALIN

    My grand father was a White Russian who fled the Comunist take over. I am not anti Russian. I am anti communist. What western investment would have done for Russia would have poured money into the Russian economy. The IMF has not been financing the mafia. Why would market reforms not work in Russia? they are working in Poland, Hungury, Bulgaria, Latvia, Lithuania, Estonia, Czech Rep., Slovakia, Slovinia. Yes the Latvians do treat the ethnic Russians as second class citizens but they also remember when all those Russians moved in. About 40 years ago in a Soviet plan to make the area more Russian that Latvian. I think they got a right to be pissed off. And I agree that the Russians should ethier cut tie with Russia or go back. If American software engineers are inferior to russian why don't you dominate the software market? Because most don't write software they crack other peoples software. I supose the thief that breacks into the bank is a better man than the one who built it too? I don't hate or fear Russians. In Bosnia we got to know quiet a few but i can tell you thier basic education was no where neer American standards. So you can stick your fingers in your ears and yell "NAA NAA NAA" as loud as you want but the fact still remains that Yeltsin did less to destroy Russia than the Communist have. Comunism does not work we won the cold war accept it. Remember your history lest you be forced to repeat it.

    The level of "coruptness" in America is no higher than in Sweden. Don't get me wrong I love the contry and Swedes are generally lovely people.( except in ULLARED). We tend to have more scandells in the states because the goverment does not control the press. And yes most Americans don't vote but I do. The thing that annoys my about Socalism is that you think because the majority agrees to something that makes it right. The magority of Germans agreed with Hitler.......

    1. Russia refuse to allow western comanies to buy Russian firm when they were privatised. Russias own zenophobia and racsism stoped western investment! 2 Who bought the privatised firms? Former comunist party bosses. 3 Were did they get the money? they embezled it. 4 Who has been financing Russia for the last 4-5 years? The IMF (most of the money comes from America!) 5 When he tried to push through pro market reforms who blocked it? Comunist and nationallist 6 Russians invested in America. Americans invested in Russia. The stock we hold in Russia are worthless. Gee who won on that exchange? 7 Chechen mafia? I bet you agree with the supression of the Baltic republics, or the crushing of the Pruage spring. 8 Illeagaly destroyed the USSR? It seems to me that Russia is the worst of from the break up. the other republcs are trucking along just fine and thier quality of life is getting better. So who was served by the USSR the Russians. not the rest of the Soviet population. 9 The health system was more available but of a much poorer quality than in America. Welfare have you ever seen the Soviet era orphanages? Those children were not called the forgoten for nothing. 10 Education was free but of very poor quality. You learned a job. The one you were told to learn. In America you have to work for your education (sometimes)but you get to pick what you learn so that your not just a gear in the Soviet industrial war machine. 11 55% of the USSR's industrial output was comited to its millitary. 23% of the USA's was comitted to the millitary. Gee you do the math! 12 The USA entered into open alliances with its European allies. Russia killed the ligitmet goverment of Poland when they returned from exile after WW2. When France left NATO. NATO troops left France. When Chekoslovakia whanted to hold ellections Russia sent in troops and killed the reform goverment and supporters.

    Did you know that Swedens socail reforms were financed by Nazi gold left there affter WW2. Switzerland is not the only contry that was used as a funnel. Also did you know that durring the fifties they sterilized people that had certain heretitary illnesess, so their children would not become a burden on the national health care system. Comunism and Marx are wrong because they believe that inteligence is public domain. That the compitent and smart should be enslaved to the incompitent and slow. Charity to those less fortunate is a choice. The Class Slavery that Marx put forth is not. Can you imagine if you were not allowed to create for yourself but for the masses? I mean nerds should totaly understand that mental freedom and individuality is sacred. Don't buy the "We're all equal" crap. We're not! And that is the beauty of humanity!

    Have you heard what Rusia did to thier own natural resorces? Did you know that Rusia has historicly practiced a SCHORCHED EARTH policy in every war that they have fought. When the Germans were pushing into Rusia they the Rusian burned every thing they lost control of. When Rusia pulled out of Chechnia they burned everything (inculing oil refineries!). So do you really think they would not keep the same mindset now?

    You meen the under paid soldiers and workers of Rusia. Just think in the states when union members don't get paid what they want they get violent. Now give somebody half stewed on bad vodka access to "THE BOMB". Which by the way as of last year are no longer aimed at the US. Now they are aimed at Europe but it only takes 2 minutes to reset the targeting codes. Although most would probably blow in the silo or on the truck because Rusia has not had the budget to properly maintain thier weapons for about a year and a half.
