I think tk102 got it right about a lot of the backmasking in the 70s and 80s that most of it being just consequences. It was also done for the almighty dollar. This got the record buzz and made people talk about it and then go out and purchase it....  [Read More]

Okay, somewhat non-controversial. Somewhat. Although I would like churches (or at least, the preachers inside of churches) to partake as lobbying groups and endorse candidates to try and influence governments. Not that I am pro-Religious Right...but...  [Read More]

I can easily criticize Finland and hear others criticize my country as well. To me being critical of your country is an important part of patriotism. You see the flaws in the place you love and see how it could be even a better place without those f...  [Read More]

I see nothing wrong with Patriotism as long as it does not turn into an extreme form of Nationalism. I’m from Texas and I’m very proud that I’m from Texas. However, I don’t think Texas is any better than any other state in the union or for th...  [Read More]

Seriously, I think you give the President far too little credit. Clinton would have just gone to the UN after 9/11 and whined. After 9/11 Clinton and any other elected official would have done what they were elected to do and been the Commander and...  [Read More]

Finally, Bush isn't exactly as dumb as people would like to believe, having a language learning disability combined with a southern accent, doesn't make a person stupid. Trust me, I don't think a southern accent makes someone dumb, or even sound dumb...  [Read More]

So you say perjury isn't a crime, seriously people go to prison for years for committing perjury. If Clinton had admitted about the affair it would have made him look bad, but he couldn't be impeached over it. Face it Clinton lied before a federal gr...  [Read More]
