Didn't we have a political forum?

Any thread containing the words 'Bush', 'war' and 'goverment' should end up there right away

Originally posted by Tranceporter99 i didnt read your post, at all. but it seems that you think bush is hitler like because he suspended a citizen/citizens rights. well then label the rest of the united states presidents for the past 200 years. for instance kevin mitnick[a hacker/cracker] had habeous corpus[spl?] suspended and sat in jail for 6 months before being charged.

The Salon piece is well worth reading.

Call me paranoid, but the general trend is troubling.


We'll see what happens in the Padilla case, though it irks me that he evokes the Founding Fathers as he rapes their legacy.

Those insults are uncalled for. I don't hate the US, I've gotten a lot out of it. But the fact is that I was born in an American colony and it was never my choice to be a US citizen, even if I don't feel American. That's just the way I am thanks to colonialism and imperialism.

Thanks!

My grandfather left Spain during the Civil War back in the 1930s, and according to Spanish law I have the right to freely ask for my citizenship there because I'm second generation.

I lived in Amsterdam for almost a year and it was the most amazing experience of my life. I will probably go to law school in Barcelona and then try to settle down somewhere in Central Europe, hopefully....

nationality isn't something you should feel.
its simply a label that you get because you were born in a certain place.

yes, I know. but I wasn't actually born in the US. I was born in a non-incorporated territory OF the US where only 15% of the population is fluent in English and where the culture is totally Latin American in the national, not ethnic minority, sense.

in the US I'm labeled as a foreigner, even if I was born an American citizen. When you come from a colony, it's hard to apply any labels.

may 1st is also mayday in china
how ironic

you can see some of the bad of bush as being similar to hitler, however hitler did a lot more good to germany than bush has been doing to america. Hitler took a country from shambles, and in about 9 years made it a world power.

If only he didn't have that whole hatred to other races thing, he might have been the best leader...

Nah, its the people that would never think about leaving the US that are the retards and rednecks.

It's just as offensive as what Floorfiller said. And Thom does have a point, a redneck would never think of leaving the US.

that is not at all what he is saying. He is saying that people who do not want to leave the US...for whatever reason, are retards and rednecks.

I surely believe a red neck would not want ot leave the US, so what, its not cool to say everyone that does stay in the US is a retard and red neck...


which I hope he was joking or he didn't realise what he said implied so much.
