Re: It's OK, We Didn't Use those Rights Much Anyways To be replaced by whom? John Kerry and his corporate masters? Republican, Democrat, it makes no difference anymore and hasn't for over 20 years now. Unless you include Congress, "regime change" in this country is little more than rearranging deck chairs on the Titanic.
You say you want a revolution? More people need to start holding their elected representatives at the state and local level responsible for their actions. If more people paid attention to their U.S. Senators and Representatives than the President, then we would have an easier time of things. Remember, nothing gets done without the consent of Congress. Futhermore, unlike the President, U.S. Senators and Representatives in most states don't have term limits, so they are more subjective to the desires of their constituency.

| Remember, nothing gets done without the consent of Congress. Not true. For example, the President can declare war on a country for...what is it, 30, 60, or 90 days without congressional approval? I think it was 90 days, last I looked that one up.
So, don't write off the president as the congressional bizatch, he's now got plenty of things he can do solo. |

Iscandar | True, but for more extended operations (like Iraq), he needs the approval of Congress. Furthermore, if he felt that he couldn't get the approval of Congress to stay longer, he wouldn't have sent troops in. So, in the end, it all comes back to Congress. |

| LOL why are people so offended by this? It's common sense that piracy is wrong. If these politicians didn't vote yes for this bill that would be defying logic. The prospect that it might be soon when this internet piracy free for all is put to a halt or slowed down is depressing. But the fact remains that logic dictates piracy is wrong and congress and the RIAA is doing the right thing to taking steps to stop it. I've not agreed with the RIAA's tactics but I recognize their right to protect serious laws from being broken and a crime that is costing them money. Instead of blaming congress and the RIAA some of these file sharing makers need to start looking into the possibilities of making their networks anonymous.
BTW the blaim Bush post LMAO. Some of these blaim Bush people man they could be at a resteraunt and have some stranger fart next to them while they're eating and they would blaim Bush for it. By god. I hope Kerry gets ellected just so we don't have to hear it anymore. |
