Ling Ling and Lang Lang? That is pretty insensitive. Very funny, but insensitive. But according to news articles (if you can believe any of them), the US gov. had nothing to do with this. These ladies worked for a company created by Algore. Algore was going to go over to get them released but Bill went instead.
Great reply. Case closed Weezo?
My God! How old is John Dingell anyway? Hasn't he been serving since the 1950s? Perfect example of why term limits are a good thing
Actually, the agreed in mutual fear. Enlightenment thinkers (which many of the Founders were intimately familiar with) thought a balanced government that feared the power of the people but also was not governed simply by whims of the "masses" was the best way to ensure a stable government that could serve the interests of the entire country. That's how we got a republican form of government.
As to the your comment on the educated aristocracy, that was more of an influence of 18th century European culture than any political conviction. Public education in the US, among many other things, destroyed the idea of an aristocracy looking out for the greater good.
So I thought I was watching Comedy Central the other day. After about an hour of watching I realized that I was actually watching MSNBC! I kept watching. I think their paranoia over the growing resistance to Obama is funnier than anything else on tv.
I think you mean to say that the constitution was progressive. Progressives (with a capital P) did not come around in political circles until the middle of the 19th century. The Founders were progressive in their political ideas at the time but were not Progressive in the modern sense. In fact, most Founders political ideas have nothing to do with the political ideology of Progressives today. I think you're just spinning words.
Haha! The censoring does remind me of a Family Guy episode! priceless.
Technically, the Hate Card can't logically apply here. Obama is half white so Glenn criticizing Obama's racist comments should be celebrated on the left because Glenn is going after an angry white man who has deep seated prejudices against....white people...wait I'm confused now. I think the left is too.
that's what they are afraid of (@ MSNBC).
