It's ok. He's just frustrated because Kerry is falling faster in the polls than he does skydiving. Forty-two

This is the biggest fight of the year. Hoya will show up. That much is guaranteed. What's not guaranteed is if he has the skills to beat Hopkins. Hopkins is one phenominal fighter. I think he will best Hoya. Forty-two

So whose watching the big fight next week between Bernard Hopkins and Oscar de la Hoya? This may be the most hyped fight of the year. Will be a great one. I would have to lean towards Hopkins even though I'm rooting for Metro Sexual Boy. Forty-two

Si if Kerry wins it's because he's the right man for the job. If Bush wins it's because of ill-educated voters. Got it. Thanks. Forty-two -
I came across this and laughed pretty hard. Wanted to share it with you all. 40 Reasons to Support Gun Control (Also known as the proof positive that Liberals are not just stupid, but insane.) Banning guns works, which is why New York, DC, and Chicago cops need guns. Washington DC's low murder rate of 69 per 100,000 is due to strict gun control, and Indianapolis' high murder rate of 9 per 100,000 is due to the lack of gun control. Statistics showing high murder rates justify gun control but statistics showing increasing murder rates after gun control are "just statistics." The Brady Bill and the Assault Weapons Ban, both of which went into effect in 1994, are responsible for the decrease in violent crime rates, which have been declining since 1991. We must get rid of guns because a deranged lunatic may go on a shooting spree at any time and anyone who would own a gun out of fear of such a lunatic is paranoid. The more helpless you are the safer you are from criminals. An intruder will be incapacitated by tear gas or oven spray, but if shot with a .357 Magnum will get angry and kill you. A woman raped and strangled is morally superior to a woman with a smoking gun and a dead rapist at her feet. When confronted by violent criminals, you should "put up no defense — give them what they want, or run" (Handgun Control Inc. Chairman Pete Shields, Guns Don't Die - People Do, 1981, p. 125). The New England Journal of Medicine is filled with expert advice about guns; just like Guns and Ammo has some excellent treatises on heart surgery. One should consult an automotive engineer for safer seatbelts, a civil engineer for a better bridge, a surgeon for spinal paralysis, a computer programmer for Y2K problems, and Sarah Brady [or Sheena Duncan, Adele Kirsten, Peter Storey, etc.] for firearms expertise. The 2nd Amendment, ratified in 1791, refers to the National Guard, which was created by an act of Congress in 1917. The National Guard, funded by the federal government, occupying property leased to the federal government, using weapons owned by the federal government, punishing trespassers under federal law, is a state militia. These phrases," right of the people peaceably to assemble," "right of the people to be secure in their homes," "enumeration's herein of certain rights shall not be construed to disparage others retained by the people," and "The powers not delegated herein are reserved to the states respectively, and to the people," all refer to individuals, but "the right of the people to keep and bear arms" refers to the state. We don't need guns against an oppressive government, because the Constitution has internal safeguards, but we should ban and seize all guns, thereby violating the 2nd, 4th, and 5th amendments to that Constitution. Rifles and handguns aren't necessary to national defense, which is why the army has millions of them. Private citizens shouldn't have handguns, because they serve no military purpose, and private citizens shouldn't have "assault rifles," because they are military weapons. The ready availability of guns today, with waiting periods, background checks, fingerprinting, government forms, et cetera, is responsible for recent school shootings,compared to the lack of school shootings in the 40's, 50's and 60's, which resulted from the availability of guns at hardware stores, surplus stores, gas stations, variety stores, mail order, et cetera. The NRA's attempt to run a "don't touch" campaign about kids handling guns is propaganda, and the anti-gun lobby's attempt to run a "don't touch" campaign is responsible social activity. Guns are so complex that special training is necessary to use them properly, and so simple to use that they make murder easy. A handgun, with up to 4 controls, is far too complex for the typical adult to learn to use, as opposed to an automobile that only has 20. Women are just as intelligent and capable as men but a woman with a gun is "an accident waiting to happen" and gun makers' advertisements aimed at women are "preying on their fears." Ordinary people in the presence of guns turn into slaughtering butchers but revert to normal when the weapon is removed. Guns cause violence, which is why there are so many mass killings at gun shows. A majority of the population supports gun control, just like a majority of the population supported owning slaves. A self-loading small arm can legitimately be considered to be a "weapon of mass destruction" or an "assault weapon." Most people can't be trusted, so we should have laws against guns, which most people will abide by because they can be trusted. The right of online pornographers to exist cannot be questioned because it is constitutionally protected by the Bill of Rights, but the use of handguns for self defense is not really protected by the Bill of Rights. Free speech entitles one to own newspapers, transmitters, computers, and typewriters, but self-defense only justifies bare hands. The ACLU is good because it uncompromisingly defends certain parts of the Constitution, and the NRA is bad, because it defends other parts of the Constitution. Charlton Heston as president of the NRA is a shill who should be ignored, but Michael Douglas as a representative of Handgun Control, Inc. is an ambassador for peace who is entitled to an audience at the UN arms control summit. Police operate with backup within groups, which is why they need larger capacity pistol magazines than do "civilians" who must face criminals alone and therefore need less ammunition. We should ban "Saturday Night Specials" and other inexpensive guns because it's not fair that poor people have access to guns too. Police officers, who qualify with their duty weapons once or twice a year, have some special Jedi-like mastery over handguns that private citizens can never hope to obtain. Private citizens don't need a gun for self-protection because the police are there to protect them even though the Supreme Court says the police are not responsible for their protection. Citizens don't need to carry a gun for personal protection but police chiefs, who are desk-bound administrators who work in a building filled with cops, need a gun. "Assault weapons" have no purpose other than to kill large numbers of people, which is why the police need them but "civilians" do not. When Microsoft pressures its distributors to give Microsoft preferential promotion, that's bad; but when the Federal government pressures cities to buy guns only from Smith & Wesson, that's good. Trigger locks do not interfere with the ability to use a gun for defensive purposes, which is why you see police officers with one on their duty weapon. When Handgun Control, Inc., says they want to "keep guns out of the wrong hands," they don't mean you. Really. Forty-two

Things you have to believe to be a Democrat
tunaplanet replied to tunaplanet's topic in Speakers Corner
- Drug addiction is a disease that should be treated with compassion and understanding...unless the addict is a Conservative talk show host. - The United States should be subservient to the United Nations. Our highest authority is not God and the U.S. Constitution, but a collective of tinpot dictators (and their appeasers) and the U.N. charter. - Government should relax drug laws regardless of the potential for abuse, but should pass new and unConstitutional anti-gun laws because of the potential for abuse. - Calls for increased security after a terrorist attack are "political opportunism," but calls for more gun control after a criminal's spree killing is "a logical solution." - "It Takes a Village" means everything you want it to mean...except creeping socialist government involvement in the nuclear family. - Disarming innocent, law-abiding citizens helps protect them from evil, lawless terrorists and other thugs. - Slowly killing an unborn innocent by tearing it apart limb from limb is good. Slowly killing an innocent disabled woman by starving her to death is good. Quickly killing terrorists, convicted murderers and rapists is BAD. - Every religion should be respected and promoted in public schools the name of diversity, so long as that religion isn't Christianity. - The best way to support our troops is to criticize their every move. This will let them know they're thought of often. - Sexual harassment, groping and drug use are degenerate if you're the governor of California, but it's okay if you're the President of the United States. - Sex education should be required so that teens can make informed choices about sex, but gun education should be banned because it will turn those same teens into maniacal mass-murderers. - Minorities are blameless for the hatred of the racist; women are blameless for the hatred of the rapist; but America is entirely at fault for the hatred of Islamofascists. - Poverty is the cause of all terrorism...which is why the leaders of al Qaeda are typically U.S.-educated and were raised in wealth and luxury. - The Patriot Act is a horrific compromise of Constitutional rights, but anti-Second Amendment laws and Franklin Roosevelt's Presidential Order 9066 must be regarded "reasonable precautions." - We should unquestioningly honor the wishes of our age-old allies, even when said allies no longer act like our allies and have vested economic interests in propping up our enemies. - Socialized medicine is the ideal. Nevermind all those people who spend every dime they have to get to the United States so they can get quality medical care...that their nation's socialized medical community can't provide. - Michael Moore, Noam Chomsky and Natalie Maines are perfectly qualified to criticize our leadership, but Arnold Schwarzenegger, Charlton Heston, and Dennis Miller are just ignorant political hacks. - John Lott's research on how gun ownership reduces crime is junk science, but Michael Bellesiles is still an authority on why gun control is good (even though he was forced to resign from Emory due to research misconduct over his book "Arming America"). - Bush's toppling the Saddam regime was a "diversion," but Clinton's lobbing a couple of cruise missiles at Iraq in the thick of the Lewinsky sex scandal was "sending a message." - A president who lies under oath is okay, but a president who references sixteen words from an allies' intelligence report should be dragged through the streets naked. - Government should limit itself to the powers named in the Constitution, which include banning Second Amendment rights and shopping the courts for judges sympathetic to causes that wouldn't pass in any legislature. - "The People" in the First Amendment means The People; "the People" in the Fourth Amendment means The People; "the People" in the Ninth Amendment means The People; "the People" in the Tenth Amendment means The People; but "the People" in the Second Amendment (ratified in 1791) means the National Guard (created by an Act of Congress in 1903). - You support a woman's "right to choose" to kill her unborn child, but don't believe that same woman is competent enough to homeschool the children she bears. - Proven draft-dodging is irrelevant, but baseless claims of AWOL status is crucial to national security. - Threatening to boycott Dr. Laura's and Rush Limbaugh's advertisers is exercising Freedom of Speech, but threatening to boycott CBS's "The Reagans" and Liberal actors over their asinine anti-American remarks is censorship and McCarthyist blacklisting.

Here's the trailer for it. It did win best documentary last year. I just checked. The man who did it was Errol Morris. He also did, "The Thin Blue Line" which is one of my favorites. That one is a bit older but still fantastic. It's about a man who was wrongly arrested and sent to prison for killing a Texas State Trooper (or some law enforcement officer). Forty-two

Don't fall for the liberal's ploy. This thread is about what you like about Kerry, not what you dislike about Bush. See, Kallend can't say what he likes about Kerry without spinning the spotlight around so what does he do? He starts nit-picking about the spelling of a word. Forty-two

I'm here watching the Oregon State and Boise State game. #1 - Who in the name of fuck decided it would be a swell idea to make the fucking field BLUE?!?!?!?! And if that isn't bad enough they're wearing blue jerseys. Let's just paint the ball blue while we're at it. #2 - Am I the only one that finds it humorous when the announcer says, "They're into Beaver territory"? Forty-two

Not at all. Start a thread concerning that specific topic and we'll debate it. See, the problem with debating liberals is that when cornered with a difficult question they grab that spotlight and flip it around on the person asking the tough questions. Not giving liberals that opportunity, ie making them stick with the thread topic, is like watching a fish flop around on land. Forty-two
