When one speaks of abortion, the common argument from pro-choicers is that since the fetus is inside a woman's body, only she should decide whether or not she wants to keep it. After all, it would be wrong for us to tell a woman what to do with her own body. However, are pro-choicers really pro-choice or just pro-abortion? Find out if you're really pro-choice or willing to take away a woman's choice with this fancy quiz I designed! Pro-Choice or Pro-Abortion? Simply decide whether or ...

You already know of the debacle concerning the report by CBS of a controversial memo that attacks the military record of George W. Bush. While most have already accepted that it's most likely fake, there are some who still insist it might be authentic. They're confident it's probably real, but I'm confident it's absolutely fake. In fact, to show how confident I am, I'll offer something... If the memo is an authentic memo from Lt. Col. Killian from 1973, then I will vote for John Kerry. I...

We all have passionate political beliefs and we fight for them daily, but why do we care so much about them? Here are the reasons I think the way I do... Legalization of Drugs I oppose the legalization of marijuana because movies such as Half-Baked and those starring Cheech and Chong would not be as humorous. France's Oppression Against Religion I oppose the ban of overtly religious attire in France because I have a fetish for women in uniform. Women in the Military I support w...

After watching The Daily Show today, I learned that George W. Bush really is a uniter and not a divider. During Jon Stewart's interview Jon with a Democrat senator, the senator stated that Democrats are now united. When Jon asks why, only one name comes to the senator’s mind: not John Kerry’s, John Edward’s, or Howard Dean’s. According to senator, the man responsible for the unity of the Democrats is George W. Bush. Next time somebody tells you that George W. Bush is a divider, remind them th...

Lately, I've noticed much venom from the anti-war people concerning the war and occupation in Iraq. I understand their frustration with the lack of WMD stockpiles. It's completely valid to say that Bush exagerated the Iraqi threat. However, I don't understand what compels them to treat the war and occupation as a dismal failure, a complete mistake, inhumane, something that should have never happened, etc. The way they speak of the war and occupation leads me to believe that they want Iraq to ...

I promise, this is my last blog entry for the evening. Why the War on Cancer Must End Billions of dollars is spent on the war on cancer, with very little to show for it. Millions die yearly. In the years it has been active, the War on Cancer has had relatively little success. Cancer can never be stopped completely. It's our own damn fault cancer is so widespread in the first place! Also, because I have some more to say about war... Take Our Troops Out of Germany! Bring them ba...

It's funny how ironic people can be. Janeane Garofalo, on the Daily Show, noted how polarized the country is, and Jon Stewart something about people becoming as fanatical as those they oppose, and Janeane Garofalo then states that voting for Bush is a character flaw, for many reasons including the fact that he's religious. It must be, after all, since she hates Bush with a fanatical passion and would vote for Hussein before she'd vote for Bush. She then went on a rant in an attempt to justify ...

Something I often hear that bothers me is that the general American public consists of sheepish slaves to the media. This statement is often said by somebody who loves politics and tends to treat them as one would treat sports, fighting for their home team and demonizing others. What I've noticed though is that somebody who's passionate about politics isn't necessarily intelligent about politics and somebody who doesn't give a rat's ass about politics isn't necessarily a slave to the media. The ...

There are many individuals in society that believe that oppose capital punishment. Supposedly, capital punishment is an inhumane act that doesn't rehabilitate criminals, but punishes them in a vindictive way that they argue is unethical. If they are right, and society should rehabilitate criminals rather than punish them, then I can't help but wonder why they ignore the inhumane act of imprisonment, which too, punishes and vindicates rather than rehabilitates. Revenge Is Wrong Let's say th...

Pardon the beating of the dead horse, but I have to clarify something. Apparently, some people, who call themselves the Enlightened Ones, believe that George W. Bush won the election because he opposed gay marriage. The Enlightened Ones even claim that Democrats support the right of homosexuals to marry! Well, I'm here to reveal to the Enlightened Ones something they should have known before... Democrats don't like gay marriage either! Don't believe me? Believe that the states that banned gay m...

Something I just realized awhile ago: many liberals insist that Jesus freaks won Bush the election because moral values was a choice many voted for Bush, and moral values obviously meant religious faith even though religious faith was also an option in exit polls. So, moral values equate to religious values, but then they turn around and say that moral values are not dependent on religion and that they can stem from humanistic sources. So, on one hand, moral values stand for religious values, bu...

After reviewing some bookmarks to check if any CDs came out, I found something shocking! Trent Reznor has some nerve to talk about corporate greed winning the election! But what should I expect from somebody whose entire CDs consist of whining (not that I don’t love them)? Anyway, after reading Trent’s reaction to Bush’s victory, I wanted to check Shirley Manson’s reaction on the official website of her wonderful band, garbage . Here’s what she wrote near the end of the election: Of cours...

The youth of America pierced the soul of the Media Tuesday when they collectively gathered not to vote . Everybody expected the youth to vote in huge numbers giving Kerry a landslide victory because of the many MTV advertisements featuring misogynistic P. Diddy and woman-hating Eminem, but not only did they not vote for Kerry, they didn't vote at all! Thank you, American Youth! You proved Tuesday that you think for yourself and will not let the Media hoard you around like sheep!

The aftermath of the presidential election flows with the bitter rage of the Kerry supporters. Many Democrats thankfully accept the loss with grace, but some, many of whom claimed patriotism, demean the majority of Americans, wish pestilence upon the nation, and ready for Canada (as they always do when they lose an election). Meanwhile, most supporters of Bush (in my biased opinion) do not gloat excessively, and instead show joy with silent grins as they listen to the rantings of disillusione...

I'm afraid John F. Kerry will win the presidential election tomorrow. However, even the victory of a terrible candidate brings with it benefits to the nation, so if he wins tomorrow night, I won't kill myself or move to Canada as Democrat threaten to do if Bush wins again. Instead, I'll swear for a few minutes and then laugh it off as I acknowledge the positive aspects of a Kerry victory: The populace will no longer see Heinz Corporation as a ketchup company, but as a corrupt multinational ...
