i believe in sharing, i think John Edwards should give me one million of the $60 million dollars he got from suing insurance companies, it's only fair.

But...give it to what?

No, he means diehard republicans, not conservatives.  We don't have very many conservatives on these boards, at least not very many vocal ones.

Fuedalism can be viewed as the ultimate form of 'haves vs have-nots' government.  The US has been growing steadily more unequal since the 70s (in the socioeconomic sense, the PC crap is just there to distract the lower class from that).  What is the solution to this problem?  IS it a problem?  

It can easily become one

Eventually the have nots revolt.
Often with ugly consequences

Just ask Marie Antoinette LOL

If our population is tending towards a class society, I'm sure of one thing: GOVERNMENT cannot fix it! (remember Gov't? - the ones who openly discriminate based only on the color of people's skin?)

The pure factual truth is, there are many countries in the modern world today that are class societies divided among the haves and have-nots, the super-rich and the desperately poor.  America is not one of them.

Speaking of Mrs. Palin (I like old fashioned handles) from a Catholic blog who is quite happy.  He found a description from another blog he thought great: it's like NASCAR meets Buffy the Vampire Slayer.

Man that would be hot.

The greatest thing that ever happened for JFK's career was when he got shot.

Probably not.  Now for his legacy, you may have a point.

Lincoln had no executive experience when he was elected, and almost no legislative experience on top of that.  Of those I listed, Eisenhower had plenty of executive experience in the military, but no political experience of which to speak. 

I think that Eisenhower holding together the allied generals, FDR and Churchill into a cohesive unit was probably one of the greatest shows of political aptitude in the history of mankind.

Nobody cares that the VP nominee's husband may be related to sombody from the silly party?

Well, there's the first result and the Silly Party has held Leicester. What do you make of that, Norman? 

Norman:  Well, this is largely as I predicted, except that the Silly Party won. I think this is largely due to the number of votes cast. Gerald? 
 
Gerald:  Well there's a swing here to the Silly Party...but how big a swing I'm not going to tell you. 

George:  Well, if I may...I think the interesting thing here is the big swing to the Silly Party and of course the very large swing back to the Sensible Party...and a tendency to wobble up and down in the middle because the screw's loose.

The funny thing is...If Palin has so much appeal, why didn't they run her for the Presidency rather than VP...?

I would have taken it.  Unfortunately for the Republicans, she was one of the only conservatives in the race.

,, and we've lost track of any kind of commonality... we can't even find 'core issues' we can agree upon as a nation. We've effectively 'balkainized' (sp) ourselves.

'divide & conquer'.. the corporations and their political smoke screens have been very effective. We've lost our identity as a nation, a 'people'.. we can't even agree on whats for dinner, let alone who's coming to it.



I'll tell you a secret.  Not many people know it.



WE'VE NEVER BEEN UNITED.

USA and the colonies that preceeded it has always been divided, from the very first moment that man's foot touched our shores.  That especially includes the "One with nature" indians.

There hasn't ever been a moment throughout all of our history where we've come together as one nation.  Ever.   EVER EVER EVER EVER EVER.
