LOL Open Eyes that was my exact reaction when I saw the sign that said No Taxation without Representation, and yeah I agree, I'm saying the other side did the same thing over the last eight years, and felt the same way, that was the jist of it.

Wait, God is a Republican, what are the Christian Democrats going to do. I'm so lost, please save me religious right from the hell fire and brimstone. Isn't it amazing that none of these people protested during the last eight years, you do know that Bush gave Billions away in TARP funds.
I only do this because coming to the forums is so much fun.
“I’m talking foreign banks,”
And the problem with helping other countries is, I mean Bush sent Billions in aid to other countries to provide better schooling while American teachers struggled to find supplies for their classrooms. When they asked Why? he called them terrorists. Foreign banks are in just as much trouble as we are, and guess what, money is international now. American banks rely on foreign banks for loans and vice versa, so someone has to give money to somebody, or we will stay in this slide forever.
“We can do this, people,” “We can take our country back.”
Back from who, the officials we elected during the last elections (like six months ago-who took office only four months ago)? Golly Beaver, seems like that's not enough time to do anything. How would you feel if your employer gave you four months to learn a job and then told you that you were terrible at it.
“ACORN is the enemy,”
Yep, helping get people registered to vote is bad. Even if they were doing bad things, their motives were good, you people and minorities need to register to vote. I'd like to know why those were fraudulent too, could it be some of the thousands of people they tried to help register weren't completely honest.
“It’s hard to get through to them unless you lie and say you’re from their state,”
Wha!! Elected officials jobs are to serve and listen to the concerns of their constituants, not axe grinders from other states. If you feel the need to help, tell you congressperson to contact all they know.
“Now, you right-wing terrorists, give yourself a hand. ... We are the proverbial David fighting the proverbial Goliath and with God on our side,”
Isn't this exactly how democrats probably felt during eight years of Bush. Power changes hands, why do you have to be so angry about it. Instead of throwing tea and scaring the crap out of people, why don't you start leading a grass roots movement that can actually change something. In two years you have the RIGHT to go and vote everyone of those "so called" corrupt congress people out. And vote in the ones who push your agenda, which by the way would probably involve putting the Christian Democrats in jail.
But anywhozer, that's all i got, thanks for listening.

Did I see some "No Taxation, without representation" signs on the news last night. Did I fall asleep and wake up where we don't elect the officials anymore. Ahhhh, this world is so confusing.

Steve, careful badying about names, I don't hate anybody, I don't like smoking, and don't do it, but would never "Hate" at smoker. Frankly I'm a little insulted that you would call me a bigot, considering my best friend, a lesbian sports writer from Nebraska, was almost beaten to death because of bigotry. And as far as hating smokers, some of my co-workers and best friends are smokers, and I still love'em. Do I wish they wouldn't smoke, yeah, but I don't hate them for it.
I get on these forums to enjoy intellectual discussion over issues, not to see name calling.

So YY4U what then makes smoking a right and not just a preference? I don't recall the constitution allowing people to "taketh thine dried tobacco and smoketh it to thine own hearts content."
Oh, and thanks for reading my entire post, where I state I'm against same sex marriage, but don't think you can argue rights if you are.
I guess I'm sick of people saying they have the right to choose to do one thing, which at the very least is harmful to themselves, but don't want people to have the right to choose others.
Oh and your argument really proves my point a little, if you claim your right are the most important in this issue, when those people come, how can you tell them theirs are less important. So I return your beware! as fighting for your right to smoke anywhere, can lead to these groups saying well if they can smoke anywhere why don't I have the right to...... HAPPY MEDIUM EVERYBODY!

Crack, you were pro ban, while I commend you for answering, the question was more for people against the ban.
Posted on April 15 at 9:53 a.m.
I'm going to ask this question one more time, and silence will answer it. Would anyone who says this is a rights issue, stand up for the gay marriage right? If it truly is about rights, would you stand for their rights as well, if you would not, then it is not truly about rights.
*note* - I agree with thought that it is immoral, and am against it myself, but I hate seeing people argue their rights are being infringed when they are willing to step on anothers right because it doesn't fit their moral code, just like smoking doesn't fit my moral code. And if you're going to use the bible please remember 1 Corinthians 6:19-20.

Thanks Create, what's worse is that these weren't strays, and had I used pepper spray, or struck one with the stick I was carrying, I probably would have gotten sued and taken to jail for animal cruelty. Yeah, that's what the world is these days.

Wait a second, I don't think you understand what you are saying. You agree with the person above that the Gazette should cover 6A state tournament, which has no area teams in it, which would further take away resources needed to cover the area teams here.
On Do sports editors know where Class 6A tournament is?
