hi everyone, just to let anyone know who isn't aware, that Richard Dawkins ( wonderful man ) will be taking part in a debate ( most likely science vs religion ) to be screened on wednesday, pretty sure it'll be one of the terrestrial channels, sorry i can't remember which channel it is.
Also, wasnt sure of Obama for a very long time, but after watching Fox's hate campaign against him and their outrage that the DNC weren't mentioning God in any of their speeches, made me take time to actually look at what Obama is actually dealing with and saying. Sure, he maybe hasn't lived up to many of his promises, but he is finally doing what we all want to happen, tax the banks and wealthy, rather than the working class and pensioners suffering from their shortcomings. What we should also take into account is he had to follow probably the worst President ever, who let's face it, left a heavy debt hanging over USA with the tribulations following 9/11.
This Mitt creep wants their soldiers to stay in Afghanistan, and give tax breaks to the wealthy, keeping the average American on tenderhooks.
Well worth looking into, sure frankyscouse will enjoy reading up on it all.
Sorry for the long boring post guys, hope at least some of you have something to say!
Peace

Oryt jay a think youv got a bit more investigating to do if you think obama is anywhere near doing the things youv said and remember saying something is alot different than doing something !

What difference does obama make to us? & they will work something out with the banks. politicians are the puppets for the higher ups.

It does not matter which of them gets the presidency, they both are corrupt persons being paid by the same people. Nothing will change

Well said, the whole thing is a big sham, have a look at the parties political donors, the one with the biggest most powerfull ones (goldman sachs, JP morgan chase etc), wins and makes you their puppet/muppet/gimp/chimp

Believing politicians have power is like believeing the posters run this site instead of the Eds.

When is the Dawkins debate on ? I have watched a few, I like him obviousley as Im of the persuasion that there is no difference between being religious and being insane. His best quote was "Humans have been on earth at least 150,000 years, and you think this god of yours only stepped in to help 2000 years ago ?"

Strange, for a moment there i thought people actually had a vote for things like this. {Ed001's Note - yes, very strange if you believe your vote can make any difference. Unless the people you have the option to vote for offer a genuine choice between different viewpoints, your vote is just between the same ideology in a different guise. Unfortunately, our political system, with party politics, ensures that we get no choice, both sides are owned by those who pay to get them elected - the corporations.}

Well said Ed, they're just two factions of a one party state. 'Democracy' is two wolves and a sheep voting on whats for lunch.
