Yah i've seen those, for anyone interested check out the movie,Outfoxedits about the Fox news station in general but is really worth a watch, and brings up the O'Reily Factor and his total and complete insanity and lapdog mentality for the religious right. Lest we forget his "war on christmas" specials of last year lol.

Should Canada Be In Afghanistan?
supercanuk replied to Moonlight_Graham's topic in Politics and Debate: WRONG!
Sorry i keep doing this, but I really think this link might interest people a well, its a video with Chalmers Johnson - ostensibly about his book The Sorrows Of Empire, but it's got a lot of relevent info about the US, the war on terror, and i think it's worth a watch. Link -
Should Canada Be In Afghanistan?

So essentially, have you guys accepted a war without an end? If Afghanistan turns into another quagmire scenario and we -
I bet you could probably drive and drink without thumbs.. sure it would be hard but you could probably pull it off. Crazy though.

Let's not say things that we can't take back. I can't be the only one who thinks this way ;) I think you might be.
-
I think he might just fade into the background, i dont know, but i cant see him endangering Bush's plans. As for the Dem's impeaching, i heard that they weren't going to bother? It'd be nice if they did, but who knows if they can pull that one off.
-
I can almost guarentee you it has nothing to do with the people.

I'd really like to know the motives behind Rummy's resignation, i think there is more to this then we are currently being told. But thats just my healthy sense of skepticism, seeping in.
-
Of course! lol The independents, i dont know about, im pretty sure they can vote however they like, i dont think their subject to any party dicipline or w/e.. not totally sure, which means they could make or break important votes, which no doubt they love the idea of.
-
As of right now, 6:30pm Wensday night, the senate has not been called either way dude.
-
i kinda sad that rummy resigned, because, i loved how he handled the press back in the day, how he put them in there place, other then that, he was too hawkish for my liking. LOL and what would you say is the press's "place" lol. Id say he avoided and kept secret everything that was happening and i dont think the press went after these guys enough! lol
-
Me either, im wondering if its "good for the party" type of change, maybe he was asked to leave because he's not popular with the troops or the American people. It's an interesting political tactic id say. Not to mention that there have been moves by many lawyers to try him and several others in Bush's cabinet with war crimes i.e. the torture uses. I guess we'll all see how this plays out, the former CIA director, Robert Gates is to replace him, but this is doubtless bad news, i cant see any CIA director being put into a defense position good news lol EDIT: Also Rummy and Bush disagree a lot on tactics with Iraq, so who knows.
-
Holy shit, Rumsfeld resigns !
-
Edit: One thing i am looking forward to. Is that since Dem's have the house, they can start commissions, esp into the war, 9/11, because there are really important questions to be asked about many issues. Hopefully the repub lawyers don't stop them! lol
-
I was going to start one but thought nobody would be interested. But what do I think about the Dem's taking back the house and possibly the senate? Well i am still skeptical about them taking back the Senate because the jury's still out and apparently some of the runners are planning on taking legal action to contest the results of some of their districts. What this means for the Iraq war? Good question. The excecutive branch, i.e. Bush/Cheny et al, have been able to degrade the constitution so well with signing statements, executive authority etc etc that it might mean absolutely nothing for Iraq. Plans could continue as Bush wants them too. For me, all i can see happening out of this, is that if the Dem's loose the Sentate, that nothing much will really change, and that if they win both, some issues might be debated, and some concessions made to some of Bush's plans. The problem is that I dont really believe that the Dem's are all that different to the republicans. By that i mean they have very superficial differences in that they tend to be pro-abortion, stem cell research etc. But when it comes to effective social change like social security, health care, i find them lacking. This situation can only be good if the Dem's are really hard on the administration. Will they be? Who knows..

Simpsons, Family Guy, South Park!?
supercanuk replied to rbx260's topic in Rentals, Television, and Readables
Although Simpson's were what i grew up on, i had to vote Family Guy. Mainly because of the YEARS of Simpson crappola being pumped out, if they went back to their older funnier way's id probably have stuck around. But they hurt me. Hurt me like how your first love dissapoints you, yah know? So now I ignore the old love and give my attention to the new one, the funnier one, the hopefully immortal Family Guy, -
Night Of Too Many Stars
supercanuk replied to hum-an-ole's topic in Rentals, Television, and Readables
That was seriously my impression of it too, i got bored in two seconds. -
Hey, yah i did read it, amazing book and i am beginning The Religion War tommorrow on my morning bus ride, i expect good things. Hopefully when people, slash, if people read this from NF we could have some discussions possibly.
-
I have never seen City of God so i am not sure. It's the story of this guy Patrick who was involved in the ANC, and an ANC sabotage mission. But yah it has a lot to do with his life and the political situation at the time, it has shades of what is happening today with "terrorists" so it's really timely. I'm not sure what more to say without giving too much away but if your unsure id go with renting it later.
