I don't agree with many here that we are predisposed to be bigots. I feel it has to do with what we label ourselves as. In reality we are all the same. Very few differances at birth. It's what happens from that point. If a white man was born to a african family in africa, and a black to a french family in france, would the children grow up the same if the africans had a black child and the french had a white? No, the raising would be differant. Why? is it the child's fault? No, the child is the same. It's the rest of us that are the problem. not the child. And the cycle continues forever.
To solve this puzzle we must realize we have a problem as humans. Once we realize this we can work on it. but to say, "This is how we are programmed", is a cope out.

Word is born. Because you do not understand, says nothing of the movie. It's like the classic paiting that no one can understand. That's why it's a classic. so you have to think. Republcains must have everything spoon fed. Clone robots are incapable of thinking for themselves.
In regards to the republcains (sz)having everyting spoon fed to them. That is why fox's ratings are so high. Rush limbaugh has power. Everywhere else radio is dead, and the republcains are still tuning in to war propoganda like it's 1930.
Free the slaves. Cut their chains. help them think for themselves. I think that is what this movie "There will be blood" attempts. To free the slaves from the mental chains. So easy to cut. But you will sit in the cave with cut chains? Or will you leave the cave of willful ignorance?

"We like our leaders dead"
On this horrible day for democracy your write those words? Unbelievable. Show some damn respect for once. You propogandists for profit. Selling out you r coutnry and good people for money. Choosing money or party over country is treason. Always will be, in terms of america.
Regarding Bhutto. May God show he mercy and grant her passage for her sacrafice. not just for the pakistani's. But for all americans. Now if we can just stop the gop (clinton) from using her death as a political stool.
You people are sick
Wow. this lady is hateful. I read that "there will be blood" hacket job. Started reading this, and had to stop and read the author. Same person. man. horrible reviews.
why does salon give this lady space? How would go see any movie after reading these bile? I know gop'ers want to go back to john wayne movies and black and white of the fifites. Cult gop propoganda. Those days are over. no amount of sabotaging the future will bring you back to your past. Your living decades in the past steph. Get with the program. Grow and change. the 50's aren't coming back. Rather than hating progress. Why no join it?
