With little discussion going on tonite I just want to toss out some things that don't make sense to me. Perhaps someone out there can help me out.Why do the same people who support a woman's right to kill her unborn child also lay down in front of bulldozers to protect spotted owls and pear trees?
Did the woman in Florida who said it was against her Muslim heritage to remove her veil for her driver's license photo know that it is also against the Muslim religion for women to drive?
If Michael Moore hates rich people so much, why does he charge $35,000 a pop to speak on college campuses?
When I file my taxes next month can I claim as dependents the near 50% of American wage earners who pay no taxes? Talk about one hell of a deduction!!!
Will the same idiots who have quit their jobs to go support Michael Jackson blame Bush for the fact that they can't afford their own health care?
Why do the same people who support affirmative action also call Condoleeze Rice a "token"?
Why do many of the same people who say we should decrease our dependence on foreign oil oppose every single action we take to drill and refine oil here at home?
If the push toward hybrid cars is all about protecting the environment and decreasing our dependence on foreign oil, why is California punishing its environmentally conscious people by proposing a "tax by the mile" after gas tax revenues dropped due to the new hybrid technology?
Anyways, if anyone can answer these questions for me, please do. Actually I think I know the answers, I'm just trying to toss out some topics for debate.
Welcome to the nation of double standards.
If Washington was alive today, he would be manically depressive and an alcoholic. He would find a way to go back in time and tell the other rebels to surrender immediately to England.
"My fellow men, I have seen the future. And our grand experiment fails."
"Why? What did you see?"
"You don't even want to know."
