		<description>Daffy noted :

[Q]
&quot;Well, what do we expect? This is a group of people who sincerely believe God sent himself sown to be horribly murdered on the cross in order to save his own creation from his own divine wrath. Yikes.&quot; [/Q]

(How do you create &quot;quote blocks&quot; here anyway??)

Yikes indeed.

People who think that way should NOT be running your country. Period.

Indeed; I hate to sound anti-democratic but, really, for the sake of everyone sane people who think like that should be denied the right to vote on grounds of mental incompetance. Do we let people who think they&#039;re Napoleon vote? (I hope not!) Why then allow others who believe in invisible sky-daddies to do so ... :-(</description>

Pcarini :

[quote] 3) Another ton of bile against “liberal activist judges” will be added to the already very sizable and foul heap by the most extreme conservatives and _all_ the ID supporters. The judge in question will be conservative, of course, and consider herself to be a constructionist. [/Unquote]

Hmm.. the worry is that aren’t the Kristian Krooks&#039;n&#039;Krazies under (or over?) Bush II (&quot;George the Insane”) appointing Judges - who agree with them ratehr than reality?

The damage this current US administration is doing its nation - and the rest of the planet is catastrophic and long-lasting…

I seriously fear that the anti-science, anti-peace Retardican party will win the &#039;09 election ..

(which should be brought forward and George II should be impeached &amp; tried for war crimes over the illegal invasion and occupation of Iraq .. but no Democratic leader seems to have the spine to ensure this happens!)

... because of the bitter Clinton-Obama in-fighting. :-(

I really fear Old Man MCCain will be your new Presiking (tehnew powesr make President an inadequate description of the job..) &amp; Huckabee his Veep &amp; that McCain’ll suffer a heart attack, stroke or chronic incontinence or whatever &amp; die in office leaving Huckabee or suchlike lunatic in power.

Then they’ll ensure the damage of Bush II gets worse and garantee the fall of the USA. Taking much of the West down with it.  :-(

I can seriously see that taking place. Our civilisation - Western civilisation is at stake here. The alliance of totaliatarian Muslim &amp; Christian extremists and war-mongers - (the Late?) bin laden &amp; Bush teh Shrub is winning the war against reason &amp; the world.

The USA very badly needs to change direction - the rest of the Earth needs Amercia to change direction before its too late.

My hope is that Hillary sees sense &amp; quits the race - or accepts Vice-Presidency nomination under Obama. That Obama wins &amp; becomes President. That the US then ends its needless wars on “terror” (conducted by using govt terrorism of its own) and starts coming to its senses everywhere.

I wish I could say I had enough confidence in the US population to think they&#039;ll do that.

I really wish they’d been smart enough NOT to vote for Bush the Mad the last time ..

The damage is severe - and is getting worse every day that Bush &amp; his Neo-Cons hold power .

Please America! Impeach Bush jr! Vote Obama

End your wars &amp; start climbing out of this huge hole you’ve dug yourselves before it becomes your grave.

&amp; please understand too that I say all this not because I dislike America but rather because I love America - the old Good America anyway …</description>
