You have a president with radical christain views (despite what he
practices)


What do you think is radical about his Christian views?


Who would Jesus bomb?

What exactly is wrong about being a Christian these days?


Being associated with the likes of Bush.

Do Christians blow themselves up?


Fortunately only on the radio.

Do they try and impose their beliefs on other religions?


Hahaha... is that a trick question???

Well, you could say liberalism is a religion. Is trying to establish
standards and values wrong?


As long as it's a liberal one, no.

Many people in the Republican party think Bush is too moderate.


Many people think their cell phones are their most valuable possession. So
what.

Most Americans like moderate leaders. The extremists kooks are nearly
monopolized by the liberals.


You need to stop kissing the Blarney Stone. I mean it is funny, but...


You have a bunch of laws after 911 which are quite the equivalent of a
police state, and,


Right. We have storm troopers in the streets. Watch out for
the brown shirts! They are coming to get you! And the answer is...


Give it time. Habeas Corpus has been revoked for the worst of the worst. It
has to start somewhere, and it doesn't usually start with the people who
give to charities and work for a living.

You have by way of your gun laws a situation where people regularly
walk into schools and shoot people.


No doubt. If the teaches could carry, that would solve that
problem. All the laws tend to prohibit people from protecting
themselves! How many school shooters had carry permits?
zero (0). So what exactly are you saying? Passing a law doesn't
prevent an act from occuring. In fact I'm sure all those instances
were clear examples of laws being broken. Although I can see how
someone who can't connect cause and effect would think passing
a law would stop such events.


More guns. That'll solve it. Sheesh...

Chose to be a man or a sheep.


Chosing to be a man means chosing doing the right thing, rather than be lead
by the nose by some idiot.


It may be dumb but as they say on the box "Scotty, this is your life "
;-)


Right. And you have a right to protect your life. Gun laws serve to
prevent tyranny. More importantly, they give you the option to live
if you so chose.


Not in the context of individual ownership. It's not codified in the
Constitution, despite what the NRA says.

Your observations Oz, continue to amaze me. Calling the US a police
state--the country that typifies freedom, is an insult. Concern yourself
with your own country. MYOB


Keep criticising us Oz... we need a reality check.
