You're probably right, as usual.

Plus, politics is boring, and I'm still in mourning about the gorram Yankees losing so spectacularly in the ALCS...

Gee, that's funny. I'm celebrating the Red Sox winning the ALCS. Gotta make a huge banner I can hang up at work tomorrow right where a Yankee loving manager at my job can see it.

The more I get to know people the more I like my dogs.

Just my two cents...

Usama Bin Laden? Bush ignored the terrorists in favour of his Iraq policy. What TV are you watching?

and quite possibly to the pathetic extremist on the far fringes of the Left wing.


Oh I see... I'm a terrorist too. I hate America. You Bushites have lots of enemies... even invisible ones.

W has my vote! ( but sadly, this time W don't stand for Whedon )

Bush / Cheney 2004



America is a whore for Saudi princes thanks to these guys. After all, Usama Bin Laden is from Saudi Arabia. The money that funded the 9/11 attack is from Saudi Arabia. The people who commited the 9/11 attack are from ... wait for it.... SAUDI ARABIA! Jeez, what logic am I not using?

Because Kerry is an elitist, egotistical, lying, ass hole who will sell off America's soveriegnty to the higest bidder in the U.N.


Yea... that's what he's doing, he's selling America. Bullplop cracker talk.

Say AURaptor, still claiming torture is just "hazing" like the Bushites told you? Why don't you get your own opinion instead of just parroting what all your cracker friends are saying? What's wrong with you, scared of something?

Ditto.


So you put Joss Whedon into this camp...

Separating church and state is nothing like seperating actors from political work. One is a founding principle of democracy while the other is a right! A civil liberty if you will.

Why would you care what some actor thinks? Why is it suddenly on your mind? Actors have been doing this since actors weren't simply killed for being degenerates.

You guys are right... you all know that as Americans, you have to curtail your speech. You can't just go around speaking your mind. You'll get into trouble. Do you want the Bush regime to come after you or your family?

We all need to step back and realize that it's better for everyone if we just let our leaders lead us. They know what's best for us. Can't we just trust them do to what's right? I'm certain they'd never do anything to mislead us. I mean, why would they want to? They love America. They would never sell off our rights. Joss is obviously asking for the FBI to investigate him. How could have the nerve, the gall, to voice an opinion. He should know better. This is America.

Arguing politcs here is like arguing religion. No one can win, and mostly people just get peeved.

Personally, I don't care if an artist/actor/public figure wants to make a stand on politics. They can have their opinion just like anyone else. That being said, they shouldn't complain if it effects their bottom line.

I am not affiliated with a party...so I don't really want to get into all the aspects of this election. However, if you don't believe that America and Bush in particular is becoming more hated by the day by everyday people, not just "radicals" you are in for a rude awakening. I am american...and I am proud to be american. I lived in Italy for a year and was never more glad that I speak italian. They hate us over there....not just the Bush is an idiot type of hate, but all out despise for the President and those that voted for him. There were signs everywhere in Rome that said "Bush is a Terrorist". So please stop delluding yourself into thinking that only zelots have problems with americans.

What the... don't talk about politics? Don't argue the issues important to you and your family? So if I come and take your children to fight in Iraq you won't say boo about it? Great! I'm calling Fort Worth!

Gee... thanks?

That would be a federal crime. It's called discrimination.

Carry on...

Ummm, not completely certain that this is a good reason to vote for someone. Personally, I'm still on the fence (leaning toward Kerry's yard). There and things about both canidates that bother me.

But, 'W' is a complete moron and a political puppet, and not the fun, made of felt with a removable nose kind.

Also and for the record I'm a registared Republican.

If life is what you make it I want Cheese Cake!
