on a side issue...what i find highly ironic and bizzare is that the left attempt to smear the right with claims of being unaccepting of certain things be they religious or social beliefs...yet the people who portray the most vitriolic hatred is the left because they are utterly unaccepting of anyone elses opinions but their own

I am neither one way or the other, but probably one the most obvious things that one in my shoes sees (and many, many others, I'm sure) is that both groups are intolerant of the other group because they are intolerant. It's a neverending cycle. The fact that they are intolerant to different things is irrelevant. When you think about it, it seems that they are really intolerant of each other, plain and simple.

Yeah i guess im one of those people who hasnt taken the time to remove my conservative head from me arse-But i still think its true- the Dan Rather things is proof of it- and also, I was watching the news a couple days ago and they were listing death counts for things in iraq.
They listed the number of US troops killed and wounded and ally death counts too- they also listed how many iraqi civilians that have been killed- but they didnt list the amount of insurgents killed- i wonder why?
It can't be because they don't know exactly how many are dead because they said that the civilian death count was a rough estimation.
I think they just don't want to admit any good going on in Iraq.
O.k. you point out Dan Rather as an example. How about the examples of the whitehouse allowing unqualified rightwing supporters in the whitehouse? Or the fact that most media outlets are owned by corporations ans conservative businessmen?
Just the comment ,"they were listing death counts for things in iraq." is diturbing, those "things" were people.
And they can't figure how many insurgents were killed because they have nothing to base it on. Reports from hospitals will tally the dead as civillian and that is where they get a rough estimation. Perhaps the military won't release the numbers regarding deaths of insurgents because it might upset the american people to know that so few people are giving the military such a rough go at it?

I would assume that by "Constives" you mean Conservatives and not your own invented political party or ideology.
Before you carry a banner declaring your political allegiance Jackie perhaps you should inform yourself as to what each party (there are more than just liberals and conservatives) stand for.
radical: Favoring or effecting fundamental or revolutionary changes in current practices, conditions, or institutions.
if you see no radical agenda you are blind. i really dont feel like listing all the ways in which bush has robbed americans of their civil liberties put in place by our forfathers, as its pointless since it will fall on deaf ears. nor will i bring up his attempt at altering our constitution from a list of our civil liberties to a list of rules we must obey. i wont go on about how he blatently ignores freedom of the press and freedom to protest by having those who would DARE protest him and members of the press illegally arrested as was the case during the RNC. i could inform you of the 'patriot act' which serves to strip 'the people' of all libery in that it makes all police searches justifiaible, regardless of whether there is any probable cause.... guess i could go on forever, but what's the point?

How? 100% of everything I do each and every day has the same amount of ease as it did seven years ago. "Well, you must not do anything, then" is not an acceptable response because I am a very active person. If I'm wrong about my statement about civil liberties, please correct me and I'll listen.
Well, I have to pay more for gasoline, but that has always fluctuated and is not a civil liberty. 😄
