What is your dangerous idea?
An idea you think about (not necessarily one you originated) that is dangerous not because it is assumed to be false, but because it might be true?"
Alex, that hit the nail on the head. I'm actually scared it will happen. I get a feeling that nothing good will come to America for a long time....speaking of which..need a roommate Alex? lol
This reminds me of a joke, lol. This preacher was driving down the highway and he went off into the ditch. This concerned citizen came to his aid and said, 'You alright preacher?' The preacher replied, 'Yes, brother the Lord is with me.' The concerned citizen said, 'Well you better let him ride with me because you are going to kill him.'
That if you hold in your farts you might spontainiously combust!Do you add to the green house effect or play Russian Roulette with your life....Decisions decisions.
Please don't get me started on...Do they really call him a PRESIDENT? BUSH. Heck, my pug dog has more sense than he does. Dang...I am slowly backing out of the door with my hands covering up my mouth before I say things that will probably make everyone mad at me. (whispering goodbye)
Rose.
P.S. I'm out the door..screaming BUSH SUCKS!!!!! lol
Canadians keep harping about "their character, their identity, their "culture" etc. ad-nauseum ;identity and culture/ heritage that is being swamped by the by american values...my idea: for Canada to join the EU and get out from under all of Uncle Sam's influences, especially economically. Canada may have to share "the longest border in the world" with the US, but they do not have enough backbone to be able to curtail any of the influences that is turning Canada into just another state or territory of the US,like Puerto Rico. Underthe EU, each member nation has limits of owning or even broadcasting programs into another country that affects their cultures, peoples, their heritage etc. ; all nations are keeping their separate but equal uniqueness and with the EU dollar, a good sound monetary system exists ; beside which, the balance of the Canadian population is still of European heritage; and has more in common with "European" values rather than those of the wild west mentality of the Bush gang.
Conservative Ideology” is an Oxymoron. and a dangerous idea.
Describing conservatism as an ideology is akin to calling primal instincts a philosophy. Conservatives have established and lavishly funded many “Think Tanks” in an attempt to elevate selfishness and greed to the level of a thought process but it lacks the vital ingredient of reason.
In the next election lets vote Alex for President! Or maybe I'll run, and she can be vice pres! Kitten army assemble..we have lots of work to do! mwhahha
