QUOTE(seanery @ Dec 21 2003, 12:41 PM) they have an off-topic board that from what I hear is really anti-american. [RANT ON] no, actually it's NOT anti american ... there was 1 (ONE) post that was anti bush/war in iraq (which i don't consider anti-american at all). i think Miles (redshift) is off his medication again. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) it's a off-topic forum. if you don't like to talk about off-topic stuff, simply don't go there. if you still go there and you're offended by someones views/posts, don't f***ing blame Pelican for it! whatever happend to "freedom of speech"? is that "republicans only" now? everyone here seems to be able to tolerate pro bush/pro war posts. according to the polls, that's only about half of the population of this country. btw. i hate how you guys split everything in republicans/democrats. this world is not black/white and neither are peoples believes and views about politics. there's much more to it than that.

We should have a special [RANT] [/RANT] font Andy.
I hate both parties.... but not much I can do about it. Andy.. for the most part Republican people "speak" more than a conservative Democrat. You will always hear more Republican than Democrat backing (so it seams) B |

Thats cuz the Republicans are more closed minded and need to convert others to their narrow minded beliefs!

I've edited my response several times now and have decided to give up. I don't really like either party in totality, but I also don't believe in being nuetral. I believe in absolutes, right and wrong and defending the former.
In the things that matter, there is really little difference with the two parties. I disagree with anyone that thinks government is "industry" and is somehow responsible to run the economy. That's what WE do. Joe american and business, large and small create the economy. A smaller and less intrusive government is good for this country. Individuals are by and large more benevolent and caring than the whiny liberals give us credit for. Not much, but just a few thoughts. |

Nothing wrong with being narrow minded. I believe in an absolute truth and nothing more, nothing less. There is no allowance for me to believe otherwise.

I still say theres something wrong with being able to make a full career out of being in politics. Maybe I'm mistaken, I thought the purpose was to serve your country and people not line your pockets as much as possible. I'm not saying they should starve, we have food stamps (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Just for clarity, that was aimed at politics in general, not one specific party. Somedays I look at our country, ok most days, and think our founding fathers would be very disappointed in how it has turned out so far.

I don't know about the rest of the country, but Seattle is overun by Homeless People living under the Freeways.
The Republicans have controlled the congress and Senate for awhile, meaning what Bills gets passed. The money isn't flowing to help the poor and others unfortunate people. The Rich get Richer..... Geoff |

The US is based on a capitalist society so the rich should get richer, Im not "rich" but I am doing better all the time, depends how hard I want to work I guess. Should the rich get poorer?

There have always been and will always be homeless people. It has nothing to do with who is in the congress or the white house. Homelessness goes back to the ancient days. They just weren't identified by their politically correct titles.
And about getting rich, it depends on your definition of rich. You can better your lot in life and climb the social ladder, if thats what you choose to do. It's your choice. But, if you are judging being rich on the scale of Warren Buffett or Bill Gates, a little luck helps also. |

No man, fucking guy called me a racist for the term "Moslem Terrorists".
'Moslem' is not a race, and we aren't being attacked by Catholics. I am not a racist. That is more offensive to me than I can bear. The schmuck there is a complete idiot, and I was told I was |____| that far from being banned, I thanked them for the time, and told them to delete my account, I won't be using it anymore, and I definately wouldn't buy a FUCKING thing from Pelican ever again. The 'banter' is all based on shit, no facts, just 'anecdotal evidence', and a supreme knowledge of clouding issues. I am a Libertarian, not the legalize drugs/anarchy kind, the leave me the fuck alone kind. I choose where I purchase, I choose not to purchase there. Don't tread on me. Fuck Wayne, and his parts.

Off topic a bit but I liked it. I heard a good one today...a new verb for the english language.
It's called being "Dixie Chicked". (IMG:style_emoticons/default/hanged.gif) Freedom of speech unless it is unpopular with the government of the day and a slim minority. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) |

It's all one guy from LA, and people from other countries slandering AMERICA, calling AMERICANS stupid, making jokes about AMERICA.... and they ask us for money, food, and help.
All the while, there is American blood splattered from pole-to-pole.. Gist of my post there: I paid taxes to buy the red buttons. I'll pay for more if they'd make them. I don't play games, I don't have time, I live in a push button world. I wouldn't mind being a mushroom farmer, I like bright lights, and smoke. My right to be pissed was bought and paid for with 3025 innocent people's lives... at work. Oh Moslem terrorist.....
