Michael Moore's film wasn't exactly propaganda. In the movie he did not promote john kerry or the democratic party in anyway. He was just exposing a lot of things about this adminstration that many people did not know. Sure alot was speculation than fact but it does make one think.
You know the old saying "Where there is smoke, there is fire."
This question is are we a collection of indivualised states or a mass conglomeration with meaningless boundaries between land areas?
I tend to think the latter since federal law takes precedence over state law so it doesn't matter which state you are from, we are all in the same shit boat.
Really think about it. This only serves to divide us more. It would be a good idea if individual states were given more law and governing authority.
Everytime I've ever voted on something before, It was this number of hands vs. that number of hands. It wasn't the hands in this section are worth less than the hands the other section so you'll need hands from another section to have a chance. it should be hands vs. hands.
Why stop at states, why not throw in race as well? If the majority of whites vote for one candidate should the black vote count for more since they tend to vote differently and there are less blacks?. Of couse this would be a discriminatory issue.
With the electoral college if I lived in montana, I would probably not vote since I know it would not be a fair count election and my state is pretty much worthless in the electoral college eyes. The candidate would not even care about my vote.
I hate to yell but I you gotta let me have this one.
Was Saddam linked to Osama? Maybe not directly, but definitely in a indirect way.
THIS IS EXACTLY WHY KERRY SUPPORTERS QUESTION THE INTELLIGENCE OF BUSH SUPPORTERS.
Dude, where are you getting your info? They have the same skin color, thats about the only thing linking those two together.
Clinton never did any major damage in this country or in another unlike Mr. Bush.
Regardless of his political party, the Clinton years were some of americas best in terms of jobs, the economy, and overall unitedness. VERY unlike Mr. Bush.
The only reason I could see someone not wanting Clinton in office is because of his political party. Which if you just vote down party lines without ACTUALLY READING and getting INFORMED, you shouldn't be voting in the first place. Leave that to the people who actually study politics and make informed judgements not prejudicial ones.
Another example of an uninformed bush supporter. Used the words Saddam and Terrorist in the same paragraph without noting that the two are unrelated. I guess those polls showing bush supporters are severely uninformed are right. We are as dumb and arrogant as most countries say we are. Well if you cant beat them, join 'em.
1. We need to take saddam and all other terrorists out of power.
2. We will neutralize all WMDs we found in Iraq.
3. We must keep saddam alive and interrogate him to find out where bin laden is hiding.
4. More money must be spent in Iraq and we should give it to haliburton for doing the best job possible.
5. Our primary focus will be to deny civil unions to certain ethnic groups and prevent medical research which is morally wrong according to our book.
6. In the name of our god we must continue to wage war against the evil terrorists and their god.(wait, their god and our god are the same? Trixters, Kill Them!!!)
7. All war deficits will be passed on to our children's children so we have nothing to worry about.
8. We must be vigilant. We shall sacrafice our children's lives and our wisdom in the name of god.
9. Anyone who does not believe as we do are with the terrorists.
10. Now that saddam is out of power, we are safe from another 9/11 magnitude attack.
VIVA LA BUSH!!!!!!!!!!
For most people I dont think this election had anything to do with sides. Thats a stupid reference as if this was some sort of football game. It was about not re-electing a complete idiot whose foriegn and domestic polices are utter garbage. I dont care whether that person labels themselves as a republican, democrat, or other third party. Labels are just labels. I'm not saying bush supports are of inferior intellingence but I am appalled as to why so many people supported him. When this many people re-elect someone whose done more damage then he has good, you have to question the intelligence of their supporters. If you just vote according to what someone labels themselves as oppossed to listening to that person speak and compiling info from various sources, your intellingence may be questionable but your wisdom is definitaly in need of a major tune up.
Also sort of like cell phone games. I could play a game for 48 hours straight on my cell phone without having to recharge. But due to the non complexity of cellular phones games, I could not fathom playing a game on this device for more than 10 minutes without getting bored and wishing I had something more like a PS2 at my fingertips
I guess it all depends on what you are looking for. For me its power and graphics. no point in having a long battery life if the device isnt powerful and the graphics are WAY outdated by todays standards(Console Splinter Cell vs. GBA Splinter Cell, I laugh). Sort of like a PDA vs Laptop. Sure the PDA will have a longer battery life but the versitiliy and usefulness is dwarfed compared to a laptop. Yet the two devices cost about the same. go figure.
Based on the poll here on slashdot it seemed an overwhelming majority went with John Kerry. Yet Bush has (for now) won this election. The conclusion I draw from this is that/. readers are more informed on the issues at hand and base their decisions on that whereas most of the american public bases this on different matters entirely (religous background, what party they represent) rather than doing extensive research. Anybody else feel this same way? If only canada had california's weather...... sigh
If you really feel that you need over 2 hours of playing time, you should go buy a home console for that purpose. I feel that the battery life is within reason and a decent trade off for the graphical capabilites of the PSP. It still beats my laptop.
Its about time somebody had the courage to face the recording industry and threaten to drop their product if they dont lower prices. Ever since the RIAA started suing little kids and grandmothers, I have no respect for them. I only wish other large corporations would follow suit.

If a dog and a snail had a race and the snail beat the dog would you not question it and feel that the snail cheated?

Bin Laden wanted Bush to win becuase he knows bush has not been actively seeking him whereas Kerry would

Forget states. EVERY VOTE COUNTS. no matter if there is only 1 person in the state of wyoming and 10 million in new york. EVERY VOTE COUNTS.

Don't forget that the governor of FL is Mr. Bush's brother. Hmmmmm....... I smell smoke
I for one happen to love chicken. I thought it was because it was delicious. It turns out I am genetically predisposed to liking to chicken. WOW

what happened??
So there must be a real santa claus who drives around in a sled with magical flying reindeer, after all we cannot prove that he does not exist.
Human beings have been in existance a lot longer than 3500 or 4200 years. add another zero to the end and that should be a closer figure
