In 1999, Senate Republicans prevented Democratic appointees from gaining a majority on the D.C. Circuit when they blocked two highly-qualified nominees

What most overseas still don't understand is that while we may bicker among ourselves, when the chips are down, we all become Americans in the face of adversity. The folks in New York on 9-11 didn't think about color I can assure you! mf_dolphin wrote:Al Sharpton is one of the most devisive people I have ever heard. As far as I'm concerned he only stands to inflame situations so that he has a reason to remain the center of attention.
Great post Bill!

When someone says ALL, it reflects incorrectly on many people. Any word that is all-inclusive, such as all, everybody, etc., is incorrect. There are always exceptions to such terms.

This is the funniest thing I have heard in a long time.

I know and have had much discussion with all of the above. I am working class and a union member. I voted democrat for years, falling into the pro-labor, democrat trap. Then I started looking at the whole thing RATIONALLY and more importantly, MORALLY. And here is what I come up with.
If you vote democrat, you are voting for:
Socialization of our culture, i.e. communism;
killing unborn children for convenience;
homosexuality;
persecution of Christians for their beliefs;
and the promotion of the envronmentalist's Mother Earth, anti-capitalism philosophies.
These base things won't let me vote Democrat, period.

so·cial·ism ( P ) Pronunciation Key (ssh-lzm)
n.
Any of various theories or systems of social organization in which the means of producing and distributing goods is owned collectively or by a centralized government that often plans and controls the economy.
The stage in Marxist-Leninist theory intermediate between capitalism and communism, in which collective ownership of the economy under the dictatorship of the proletariat has not yet been successfully achieved.
com·mu·nism ( P ) Pronunciation Key (kmy-nzm)
n.
A theoretical economic system characterized by the collective ownership of property and by the organization of labor for the common advantage of all members.
Communism
A system of government in which the state plans and controls the economy and a single, often authoritarian party holds power, claiming to make progress toward a higher social order in which all goods are equally shared by the people.
The Marxist-Leninist version of Communist doctrine that advocates the overthrow of capitalism by the revolution of the proletariat.
And I'm not even GOING there about any of the rest of the points since they're laden with strong word choices.
