    I hear that.
    I can imagine it being frustrating to have you own personal choice of religion being squashed, while others (Perhaps the minority in the US??? - I really don't know that for sure), are being more openly "publicised".
    The termonoligy may not be exactly right, but you know what I mean. ;)

    We have two extreme end of the scale here though don't we.
    On one side, you have the liberals who are trying to openly talk about alternative religions and increase the awareness of them, while perhaps losing sight of what the most practiced religion in the US actually is (I think it's the most practiced).
    On the opposite end of the scale, you have the republican (Liberetarian) party, who seem to negate the other religions that are available, and go to extremes in terms of what is and is not allowed within the laws of the country, basing those decisions on the bible.

    I guess that from the outside world (Europe, Iraq, Canada, China, Africa etc...) it may look like Bush is a bit of a facist.

    I think the main problem here is spin.

    I'm reading a book at the moment, and one of my favourite quotes from it so far is this...

    (or something like that - I haven't got the book here so I can't really remember exactly).

    If the media didn't insist on giving the public their own interpritation of the truth, then perhaps people like Anthony wouldn't feel as though they must shout "the truth" (I'm not going to get into semantics here) wherever they go...

    Just my $0.02

    :)

    If you want to introduce me to a black lady, she better be under 30, good looking with a great body, sings, dances and likes to hang around the house instead of dancing in bars.

    Then I will take you up on it, OK Debunked?

    Sorry Anthony, She is about 40 I think, but is great looking, probably sings well, but never seen her dance?? And I don't think she goes to bars (at least for quite a few years)

    Also, she is happily married.

    She is a great lady though.

    Back on the subject of Canada:

    We need to be close friends with Canada. We need to work with them on our differences and express our similarities.

    We should always be ready to watch each others backs too.

    ay?

    If your thinking is wrong give you facts Debunked?

    I have been doing that in every thread we have been in together, I just gave you two Google search links with facts filled to the brim.

    Go do your own research other than watching Fox/Bush Propaganda network and realize that you have been living in a bubble that is ready to burst just like the one burst in the Vietnam war when we pulled out of that disaster in disgrace.

    Now NC wants to get the thread back on the topic of the babbling blond propaganda agent for the Republicans that is claiming that the Republican party is the party for Black Americans because Bush put some ass kissers in high positions.

    Looks like one of them just quit Debunked, you remember him, he worked as a General in the first Bush Blunder of the Gulf War when he left the terrorist Saddam in power in a dirty oil deal.

    This is getting just plain silly. Ann coulter is a lunatic...there is not one sane person I know who would say any differently.

    AC, I think this whole line of black people in power, thinking is going way too far buddy. Couldn't you make the same assertion about the Dem party and the fact that the two most prominent black people in the Dem party since 1988 are Jessie Jackson and Rev. Al Sharpton...you think the Dem party honestly believed they were going to get elected to anything....ever? I am not saying you think, or ever thought, that they could be elected president of the USA, but I am sure there are plenty of black people out there who thought they would (I know a few of them). Not doing anything different than the Bush squad.

    FYI, I am not a Bush backer, but I think it is simply ignorant and unjust to look at all sides here. Backing one over the other kind of makes you sound like another AC mentioned in this post. :) Uh oh, now I have done it.

    I don't care about JJ or AL, what America needs is sound policy so that we are not targets of other nations as we are right now.

    We are not just fighting "so-called terror", this is a religion based war.

    They believe that the man made state of Israel with the support of America is destroying their way of life, until we have a more balanced policy this war will never end.

    In addition to that it is a war over money (who's currency will world trade be based on, the EURO or the Dollar) and the EU is not just going to stand back and let America roll over them, nor will China or Russia.


    So unless our leaders can get along with other nations and religions we are heading into WW3 and there is nothing that our current policy can do to save us.

    Well, the Arabs will not be happy until Israel and the Jews are off of "Arab" soil. So, I don't really see how any approach other than wiping Israel off the face of the earth or getting rid of any Arab "power" that can, will change anything. While I think George Bush is pretty much a donkey, I think he understands this pretty well....and that is his intention (#2).

    The bottom line is that this is a war that will not end until Kingdom come, some folks do understand this and others do not.

    So how many backlinks would the Democrats need to rank #1 in the next election? And what anchor text should they use?

    what in the world is flapping heads???

    The only stereotype I have heard was 'ay?' but from the people I have spoken to throughout canada, they all said 'ay?' even the big corporate honchos. So I guess the stereotype is true then ay?

    Canadians are the best cooks in the world; and the most hospitable.

    Thanks for making me ruin my monitor. Say 5 backlinks and Hilary as the anchor text. She'll whip things into shape. I won't be surprised if Condie doesn't run as well.

    I spend 1 or 2 weeks in Canada every year (snowmobile trips) You all are happy to see us ay. At the motels, gas stations, bars ect. Of course there are the ones who pretend they can't speak english and will only speak French they may hate us americans but I can't understand them so who cares ay.

    Actually I enjoy Canada and it's people ay.

    I have always liked Canadians but cannot understand why all this animosity towards and focus on us. We don't look at your news, TV and stereotype you based on the work of a few bad examples of your society.

    Live and let live ....
