Default Re: The liberals use the radicalized few to falsely \"represent\" realit

Yea I agree, I saw a poll online, don't know how valid it was but it said that only 58% of America knew that there was a freedom of speech. Even if it is remotly close much of the American public isn't too informed.

I think that we can all agree that both sides do whatever they can to gain or retain power. Unfortunately, this is what politics has come to in our country, and I don't see anything changing in the immediate future.

Default Oedipus Rex

If you recall, the play opens with Oedipus appearing on the steps of his palace to hear for himself the concerns of the populace. And, of course, Oedipus promises to rid his land of the evil that is causing the troubles. He keeps his promise (and Bush can't even get rid of Rove).

They pushed the New Jersey liberal WTC wives to shill for Kerry last year, now they want to misrepresent military families.

Have they no shame! This is just evil and manipulative.

NYC and Washington DC, the two places most directly affected by September 11 and mostly likely to be targeted by terrorists again, overwhelmingly voted for Kerry. Where is the misrepresentation?

What does that have to do with anything? A couple thousand people died and 10's of millions of people live in those areas. These events are definatly mutually exclusive.

So one liberal activist is representative of military families?

The mother in the article is apparently clueless about what her son was fighting for (democracy and freedom) and fighting against (terrorism and totalitarianism).

When are you going to stop bashing Al Gore for bringing up Willie Horton to attack Dukakis? Give the man a break, he lost a close election, he's had a hard life. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]
