  1. Re:So 60% positive ? on 40% Of People On Terror Watch List Have No Terrorist Ties · · Score: 1

    9/11 was not committed by conservative people and neither was the 93 WTC.

    Fighting against government oppressors is not a strictly conservative viewpoint.

    The media used the term "anti-gov" types, patriots, and extreme right wingers. I didn't see any reference to neo-nazis. The media have gone out of it's way to link those terms with the tea party and you damn well that was the implication.

    In any case, it turned out the right-wing "extremest" had nothing to do with the attack.

    Also, show me the evidence of all the right wing nutjobs bombings and shootings and I can show you that the progressive nutjobs are just as bad

    After the Boston Marathon Bombing, the tea party were the first people blamed. The shooter of the judge and congresswomen in Arizona was also blamed on conservatives (even though it turned out the guy was a liberal.)

    The democrats are responsible for the shape of Detroit. It's laughable that you try to blame the republicans for that mess.

    The hat is a trick!

    The reason they want you to wear foil is so that the sound can bounce off it.

    My plan is much cheaper than it was 10-15 years ago when I had something like 250 minutes for 50 a month and 10 cent a minute for over that.

    The French surrender? I thought this old meme stopped being funny when it turned out it was NOT a good idea to invade Irak and the French turned out to be right to not go in all along

    Not debating whether the meme is old or not but how does not fighting kill the French always surrender joke?

    So what do you think should be Israel's response to the constant bombing of their country?

    The fact that Israel hasn't just wiped the country off the map is perplexing to me. It is usually what happens when a weak country continues to poke at a stronger one.

    Lot of revision of the Soviet Union since it represents the failure of a lot of their dreams - not really Socialist, not really atheist, etc.
