Your children will have to fight,

Because your proctors picked this fight,

Choose your battles,

this seems to have never been one to choose,

It was chosen for you by dogmatic individuals years before Bush was elected, and every one of them was installed in his staff.

You are a pawn,

Pawns should be sacrificed, but they are of value, for without them you cannot protect the King.

You are a worthy pawn, and I thank you for helping to win this, game, we have begun.

We can already solve our energy problems,

with electricity, nuclear,

We should be preparing to defend ourselves from the Chinese, and the Germans and Russians whom are selling weapons and training and even submarines to our enemies,

Not, decimating our military in a skirmish over religious dogma,

We are vulnerable,

and getting more-so.

By the Month, soon to be by the Day.

The kid speaker set it up...

He resisted the officers, he was bigger than the officers, he was acting disturbed, if they could not get him handcuffed after he refused to leave he needed to be subdued for the safety of all present.

Kerry handled it well, the officers did not act on what Kerry said,

The officers were in charge of the room,

There were no winners except the republican spin cycle.

This could have gone off in many worse ways, if he had other intentions, they did not subdue him quickly enough.

Bush is an asshole that has made people act out, and made citizens PARANOID, the combination seems to call for large dentention centers in moderate climates to house the bad actors as determined by any republican in charge of the Executive Branch,

We are teetering in a bus on soft soil over a cliff and both sides are fighting - in the bus.

Any of you guys that think the cops were out of hand?

Want to be a 'security guard' or Cop?

Doubt it, they did the best they could...that guy was bigger than them (again) and was Speaking Irrationally, his words not matching his affect...

in other words, 'psychotic'

I'm sure the officers were very nervous, uncertain (anti-Bush), conflicted and scared - republican or democrat not an issue at that moment.

The student should be convicted

for resisting the lawful orders of authority,

The cops may need some training in how to deal with media Whores..

Any of you want to take a mic away from Paris or Lindsey Lohan...how about her mom, she'd wip your ass, you better have at least a taser.

This is a strawman

But do Republican conservative, politically-active anti- homosexual bigots,

act as breeder reactors for gay and lesbian off-spring...

Seems this is a self-correcting problem,

until they start to eat their young.

...Oh, but I hear they do that too.

What a scary bunch of actors.

I am scared, as all Republicans are,

IT seems after reading these thoughtful opinions, from our glorious nation's top Political minds,

I see now, that if the gays are allowed to marry, I too will become gay and forced to marry, one - or more? of my own sex.

I am a little excited about that,

BRB,

Ok, I'm back, I feel guilty, for having gotten excited about being with another man, I didn't masturbate or have sinful thoughts yet, I swear, but back to my concern...

In the case of legalization, I am forced into a gay marriage by the democrats,

who is going to assign my spouse?

Will this be like a new Department of Intra-uterine affairs, or Office of Gonadal Matching, maybe a government contractor to organize Sodomy sign-ups....?

I am at a loss as to who my new mate will be.

Will he be a large, gentle, mean, Congressman, Senator, Oval office member...are there try Outs, where they pick me for their team?

Do I keep my current spouse too, if I have one?

This is quite exciting, I think this could open up some new areas for discussion.

WE really need to vote in another Republican President

and more Dem Congressmen and Senators,

Then let him approve the military draft and finish this endless war...

any Dem is going to be a one shot and then in 2012 the Conservatives will rule the country and have all the money and world conquest will be all that is left for them to do...

If you complain they lock you up indefinitely...

after all there are plenty more bodies to do their bidding in the world.

This may be the time where losing is winning.

They got to be thinking the same thing.

Shucks

Bill never got a three-way then...unless he swings both ways.

re: Ballsee

I'm going to vote Republican. I don't care who the nominee is. It simply doesn't matter. Obviously a vote for a Democrat is a vote for a wannabe Republican, so why bother? At least with another eight years of Republican rule the country and the world will be such a total mess that perhaps there will finally be another Revolution and the political caste of the nation will be cleansed, Democrat and Republican alike along with all their consultants, and the Republic will be restored.

-- Ballsee

I'm thinking the same thing...

And I feel so much better now, giving in to the inevitable is almost like a spiritual awakening.

re: Anon

We going with our gut on this...we are the deciders here in our posts, don't you listen to your leaders?

Oh, and good point, maybe we can use this all-knowing military justice to indicte our Cummander-in-Chief ...or is he not really a commander.

"For those who says the General Betrayed us

However, if you do NOT have evidence of this, then please explain to me HOW you can say this actually occurred. Inquiring minds would really like to know.
