Well that is easy, any politician or political group that got the world into the mess it is in needs to go bye bye. But it appears the Germans and Twitter have spoken, Merkel and her party will be in power to do a bit more damage.
Just glad we got rid of our thieves......
Sarge, have you been asleep for the last two years? Didn't you notice the near collapse of the world economy thanks to the right wing's policies?

Israeli Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman said earlier Saturday that the Iranian nuclear facility proves “without a doubt” the Islamic republic is pursuing nuclear weapons.
It is good to see that our dear friends want to get us into another war. I wonder if they are willing to pay for it in blood?
I wonder who would pay for what comes from it, the U.S. or others?
I for one think we need to carry a big heavy stick against all involved in this peace process.
Make sure Iran is will keep their nuke ambitions to a civilian level
Israel is ready to come to the table by stopping their unauthorized advancement of their radical settlement advancements.
Iran proclaims that Israel has the right to exist as a nation (in the middle east)
Israel makes sure that the Palestinian people have a free and unoccupied state. (no that does not mean attack in the next 3 years)
If these things are allowed to happen then we may have soemthing to work with.
But to have this happen 2 things have to happen.
The radical state of Iran must change
The extremist state of Israel must change....
So will this happen?
No
So keep the blood flowing and have fun.

To all males, if you do not want any trouble keep your hands up and also your eyes!.....I myself like to use two loops instead of one. I can not seem to get my hands into one loop like most males. To all the gropers, stop, well that is unless you are a blue grouper. OooOOOOooo blue grouper, Oishii!

The Olympics is a drain on any country and it is also very corrupt. I hope that it goes any where other than here in Japan. I hope Korea gets it! Maybe all that brown will be replaced with some live plants for a while at least.

helloklitty at 07:52 PM JST - 22nd September Carter was and is still incompetent. He has peanut envy.
Carter ended the cold war with Presidential Directive 59, if it were not for that who knows what would have happened....
HK, you need to read a bit.......LOL
I always wonder why is it that most enemies of our country are created by the far right?
But now we dance to the next page.....
Bill O'Reilly how can we save the white christian race? I always wonder what the followers of Hera thought?LOL
O’REILLY: But do you understand what the New York Times wants, and the far-left want? They want to break down the **white, Christian, male power structure, which you’re a part, and so am I, and they want to bring in millions of foreign nationals to basically break down the structure that we have. In that regard, Pat Buchanan is right. So I say you’ve got to cap with a number.**
Huh? Bill do you mean that the Republic is not inclusive?
MCCAIN: In America today we’ve got a very strong economy and low unemployment, so we need addition farm workers, including by the way agriculture, but there may come a time where we have an economic downturn, and we don’t need so many.
Oh I am sorry Mister white McCain, I did not mean to insult you by speaking up. So you want me to dance a jig and be quiet while you do what you want?
O’REILLY: But in this bill, you guys have got to cap it. Because estimation is 12 million, there may be 20 [million]. You don’t know, I don’t know. We’ve got to cap it.
opps did I overstep my bounds because I did not go to Yale? What's you want from me's boss? U want's me to dance a jig?LOL
Okay what is the diff?

In the 60's we had racist congressmen from the deep south and most of them were Democrats. They hated anything Socialist and wanted to keep the South separated and white.
Now things have changed most of those folks that were Democrats are now Neo-conservatives and still following the same line.
A neo-con is a neo-con.........Joe Wilson is just that a neo-con.
Rush oh Rush, as you lead your party to the hell of certain destruction you do it with such grace!LOL

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=paCx4v4rc9U Rush and what he really said. Rush blames Obama for all the hate!LOL All he says is racism racist blah blah blah.
BTW did you know that whenever any black beats up a white it is Obama's fault. But when whites do the same, it is because they are just good people and it is still Obama's fault. Rush told me so...LOL

Actually tigermouth, I think you are helping Wilson correct those lies about the and fine southern gentlemen like Wilson and Forest. Keep that flag flying in South Carolina! Well that is what Wilson believes!
Well done, keep showing everyone else that there is no racism in America, Carter was lying.......LOL
How dare that Democrat speak out! Doesn't he know his place? Yeah he won the election, but he only won by 14%! Who cares about that! He was not even born in America!
America is for Americans and no one else! Doesn't that so and so understand that certain families are the ones in charge?
Oh well, he is not even an American is he?
BUZZZZZ sorry Sarge, I know you really tried.....But the correct answer was George W Bush was the worst President in U.S History.

tigermoth at 12:08 AM JST - 18th September JoBigs - I watched the video of Jimmy Carter explaining his point, and fail to see where that proves Wilson's comments were in any way racist.
Well then keep living your dream....nuff said...

So how did former President Carter overstep his bounds? Did he call for the downfall of present Government? Did he call for anyone to resign?
Hm, I wonder is he just spoke his mind in front of other Americans? Oh my god! He should be hung for speaking his mind! Such a traitor!!!LOL
So do you believe that their is no racism in our Country? Utopia is a communist dream.

This poll goes to prove President Carter is correct there is deep seeded racism in America and it needs to be exposed for what it is.
Now about your numbers.....You may, and I mean may want to look at the full poll rather than a snippet. Let me help ya.....
http://news.yahoo.com/page/election-2008-political-pulse-obama-race
I like going to the source rather than the Republican pundits. Hate find something second and third hand.....Almost like stepping on something too many times. IN the end all you get is mush...LOL
President Carter is correct and folks need to open their eyes to this fact. Joe Wilson's remarks came from deep down inside......

Pssssssst....Don't tell anyone but Carter is not running for any office. He has nothing to gain from his remarks other than trying to open peoples eyes to the truth. So to make the "political advantage" remark is a bit over the top....
What was your point by this sentence? White washed bio, huh? Was this meant as a bit tongue and check? Confused minds want to know....LOL
Again I ask, what are you saying? Are you claiming that anyone that is not a Republican is a racist because they make sure to remind people that racism is alive and well?

Really I do love the media and their far right controllers. It makes me laugh every time that President Carter speaks they only take snips of what he said rather than the full statement. If you guys want to listen to wisdom then watch the video I linked below.
http://video.ap.org/?t=By%20Section/U.S.&p=&f=CASDT&g=0915dvcarterwilson
Carter is correct when he speaks of the anger there is in many of the members of the far right. This anger is not based on anything other than fear and hate.
The far right has been whipped up into a frenzy and they are scared. Why are they scared? Well just look and listen at the video.
If you walk away thinking he is (Carter) stupid and anything else then you should really look deep within yourselves and get some counseling.
Hate is taught same as fear........

Former President Jimmy Carter said Tuesday that U.S. Rep Joe Wilson’s outburst to President Barack Obama during a speech to Congress last week was an act “based on racism” and rooted in fears of a black president.
President Carter is correct in his assessment. This is a sign of fear within the far right. If President Obama was nice and white Wilson would have never yelled out. But his anger and hatred is deeper than he is willing to admit.
The only reason anyone tries and remind folks that racism is alive and well is because it is.
The radical right and their fringes have such a fear of our President. If you made up some lie about our President and posted on a blog. Within a week it will spread through the rank and file as the honest truth.
The far white wingers in the Republican and nazis parties try to hide the fact the their is still a race issue in our nation. They just want no one to talk about it because then they can try to bring back the "good old days".
What were the "good old days"? Well they were the days when minorities did not have a voice and they could do whatever they wanted.
Let's see what else were the good old days, oh yeah
You hired someone because they were white.
Rented your apartment to whites only
Made sure to have separate drinking areas
Had different swimming areas
Had separate schools
Had the right to lynch'em whenever you felt.
Ah the far white and nazis good old days. Only a Republican can miss them.
Now who wanted to keep a Confederate flag flying over the S.C. capital? Could it of been Joe "put them in their place" Wilson? Why yes it was.....
You know good ole Joe "put them in their place" Wilson is a true Southern gentleman....LOL

Inkjet, I say to you,"you lie!"LOL Could not pass that up. Now back to the debate....
Good point there Telep....errr sorry, I meant inkjet. But what you failed to understand or mention (do not know if you know American political history or not), but what you failed to mention was that hissing and booing is a common event in any Presidential address.
Many Presidents have enjoyed (tongue and check) the hiss or boo from the opposition party. This is actually expected from the opposition and not considered much. It is a form of disapproval.
Fred Beuttler, deputy historian at the House of Representatives says and I quote,"Occasionally, members of the opposing party have been known to boo and jeer as expressions of dissent on a specific point," says Beuttler, citing instances during the Bill Clinton and George W. Bush administrations. But before Wednesday, he says, "expressions of individual opposition of members to a president's speech had not been recorded."
So to claim that this is nothing new is no more than a bold face lie.
Here is a link that may (and I mean may) help you to swim away from the far right whitewash attempt....Using the word whitewash in a post about our dear friend from the deep South Joe "put them in their place" Wilson. It is kind of funny....LOL
Below is a link that may help to understand the difference between what is accepted disapproval and what is down right disrespect.

Did Joe Wilson insult the Presidency? Yes...
Should he pay? Yes....
He is right up there with Chavez and others who dislike America.....

A fine example of old Southern gentleman that he is. Stands up for the insurance lobby and defends their honor. What a good southern gentleman he is, putting the President of the United States in his place....Hm I wonder what motivated him to insult the Constitution and basically spit on the President of the United States.
He yelled out and called the President of the United States a liar. Nice to see the Republicans show such respect for their nation on national television....Nice, but I wonder why he has such hate of our President.
I wonder if he is still upset that his family was on the losing side of the civil war?
Hm you know I also wonder where was his voice when President Bush was proven to have lied all those many times.....Please, please please please challenge this.....LOL

The far right in an effort to make themselves look worse in front of the American people are protesting the Presidents remarks. These wackos hate the fact that kids should be asked to pay attention in school let alone become good Americans.
Sad how the far right has become a bastion of hatred isn't it?
I wonder if the President was white if they would be in such an uproar?
