Yeah, everyone that asks for peace and human rights respect, in a country where the majority supports a President that goes to war for oil, does it for money and positive press coverage...

Ponrauil

tsk, tsk.....peace and human rights respect, you mean like the kind Saddam was offering his people. You have an opinion based on the propaganda you wholeheartedly swallow......and your opinion is no more valid than mine. Oh, and as far as that positive press coverage.....yes, Bush and the US have been getting a lot of that lately.

Interesting fact - the US media r no longer allowed to show the American soldiers being carried home in body bags or their funerals....

The propoganda less part of the war for oil is the fact that the oil companies with ties to the administration got the huge contracts.

"I don't know what happens next, but I do want to add my voice to those who think that the Dixie Chicks are getting a raw deal. I send them my support."

Ah, the infamous quote that made the Dixie Chicks think they belonged with the rock and roll crowd.

Why is it that the Dixie Chicks were "expressing American values by using their right to free speech" but banning their music on some stations (which was at the request of the American public in some places) is un-American? Please. If you can't stand the heat, stay out of the kitchen.

because of the REASON they were being banned. If the Dixie Chicks hadn't expressed their right to free speech, the records wouldn't have been banned.

So you see how free speech is the loser in this situation.

Ponrauil

now what country would that be???

In case this is directed at the US, you are quite mistaken my friend.

Too bad your country cannot do better on educating their people from making ignorant and generalized statements as the above

That ignorant and generalized statement is based on a Time/CNN poll.

Ponrauil

and the poll quotes "majority supports a President that goes to war for oil, does it for money and positive press coverage" ???

Didn't think so.

The problem with polls is that the questions asked are usually different from the interpretations of the poll. Nothing I hate more than seeing polls you suggest, and when probing for the questions asked as well as the population polled, you'll find big discrepancies. All of a sudden polls arise during such time as a war that suggest everyone (or the vast majority) supports the war - this is propaganda at its heights. It is used to comfort the masses, nothing else.

Be comforted at the fact, that the majority of this country did not vote for the president in power and would never support someone that goes for war for oil, money and positive press coverage. The war-

So why did the polls in the UK show the majority against war?? .. or rather invasion
