On a personal comment I always thought you were a lot more older (I always consider you around 19 years old.

Now, I've always felt that youth has a duty to be inform of what's going in the world. Not only because they learn but also because the future will be shape by their views in later generations. Certain individuals will try to corrupt the youth, but as long as they educate themselves and read more, I'm sure they won't be fooled so easy.

ActuallY I dont know why in the hell anybody would be happy about Bush winning,he is by far one of the most corrupted presidents ever just like his dad.no wonder your classmates were mad at you. 🙄 Thats being very naive to not believe Bush will destroy this country.Dont be one bit at all surprised if Bush succeeds at starting a war in out own country.If you didnt listen to the major medid and visited internet news sites,you would Know Bush knew all along 9/11 was going to happen and didnt do a damn thing to try and prevent it.

Read my post again bucko.. I am not pissed at liberals.. I am pissed at liberal-wannabees who watch Moores movie and think they know every single little thing about this country.

It does go both ways.

Take the New York Post for example. They blatantly support Bush and bash Kerry. This media in turn makes ignorant people think, "Wow. Kerry's an ass. I like Bush."

The New York Times does almost the exact thing, but from the opposite party's perspective.

I go by the Daily Show. Because they are "fake" news(don't let that fool you, they use real facts. they just have fun with it), they don't have a standpoint. They use common sense to completely tear politicians a new a$$hole. Yes, Jon Stewart is a democrat, and it shows, BUT, that does not keep him from making jokes about how the democratic party is run. He sees the absurdities is BOTH parties.
