Central Theme? - 9/9/2006 6:49:36 PM

Status: offline 		I have noticed that as a general rule of thumb (that means it happens more often than not) one or more of the following has caused all the problems of the world:

   President Bush
   Prime Minister Blair
   Republicans
   Isreal

I couldn't find any statistics about how many registered voters were Republican and how many were Democrat but I would venture to say that it is probably 50/50% give or take a few points.

I did find it interesting (from Wikipedia) that the Democratic Party is upset with Hilary Clinton over her support for the War in Iraq.  Wierd.

I also find it strange that a lot of the anti-above list comments come from Non-US members.  Which is OK I guess, but it makes me wonder why they are involved in American Politics? 

I have also noted that regardless of what the political discussion is, it changes to something else within the first 10-20 comments.

Anyway, my question is, can anyone explain all this?   How can it be?

The way it was reported overseas was that brother Jeb / Jed Bush blocked votes and so Bush had less votes than the democrate.
In most countries you never meet someone that confesses to actually voting in the "idiot in charge"

I did find it interesting (from Wikipedia) that the Democratic Party is upset with Hilary Clinton over her support for the War in Iraq.  Wierd.
Who the Democratic Party, Hilary or both?

50% of above is US (Bush / Republicans) and 50% is non US (Isreal / Blair) may be a reflection !!! or perhaps US politics is world politics or that what infuriates lots of non Americans is that Americans don't understand the world?

I have also noted that regardless of what the political discussion is, it changes to something else within the first 10-20 comments.
So is Arnie right to get Calafornia gong with climate change trading in Carbon credits? - !!!

Anyway, my question is, can anyone explain all this?   How can it be?
No but I can think of a few posters who will argue they can, claim there is a web link that explains it and then state that everyone elses posts indicate that they dont understand or are being narrow minded.

Status: offline 		I think pointing the finger at only the above 2 individuals and said parties/countries is being too general.

Be that as it may, Bush,Blair, Israel and Republicans HAVE definately caused a LOT of problems in the world, but MUCH MORE SO...their handlers and the people and organizations we never see.

The hidden elites.

Thats my take.

You forgot Christians, Ken.
 
It's a formula, Ken. A post often begins with "uhh....." followed by smarmy comments made to make you feel like a dip, or make the poster feel better.
 
Another thing to look for is a pushing of a point, then when that point is met, or another one made countering it, the poster ignores that. Don't want to give any ground, ya know.

I think you should blame the Christians for that.

Bogie all the way, I say!  I have Casablanca memorized!  Maltese Falcon, To have and have not, Key Largo...are you kidding? Bogie's the MAN.

Status: offline 		Both these kids are 1/4 Palestinian.   their grandfather on their mothers side was in the PLO.      My grand daughter is 1/2 palestianian and has a bumper sticker on her car that says "Terrorist Hunting License" and has a picture of an M16.   On 9/11 her dad called her and asked her what she thought of what her cousins did.   She came in crying wanting to borrow my rifle and go find her dad.
