451. Top 30 Politics Quotations By Danielle Hollister

Strife of interests masquerading as a contest of principles." -- Ambrose Bierce"Man is by nature a political animal." -- Aristotle"I have come to the conclusion that politics are too serious a matter to be left to the politicians." -- Charles De Gaulle"The mistake a lot of politicians make is in forgetting they've been appointed and thinki…



452. Follow The Leader
     To lead people, walk beside them ... As for the best leaders, the people do not notice their existence. The next best, the people honor and praise. The next, the people fear; and the next, the people hate ... When the best leader's work is done the people say, 'We did it ourselves!' - Lao-Tzu --------------------------------------------------------------------------------I’ve just about had it with all the talk surrounding this past election. Look, I’m sorry that people were disenfranchised in O…



453. Katrina Questions - Anyone Got Answers? By Michael Bresciani
     I wrote a very positive article about the responses to Katrina for http://ezinearticles.com Entitled “New Orleans My Home - Katrina My Nightmare” and another article “Katrina What It Is Like To Be An Evacuee” In both articles I endeavored to stay on the upside and we aren’t complaining to anyone but today was the straw that broke…etcEveryone it seems, has an answer for who is to blame or who to call for help or how to deal with your insurance company. But I wonder if anybody is really asking …



454. Mass Murderers On Ballot By Anthony Bloch
     Mass murderers Hamas are on the ballot for the upcoming Palestinian elections. By putting Hamas on the ballot, Hamas has moved into mainstream Palestinian politics. Now anything is possible and Hamas may someday lead the Palestinian people.It would be disastrous for Israeli/Palestinian peace negotiations and for Middle East politics if Hamas won the Palestinian elections. Hamas has killed hundreds if not thousands of innocent children, women and men. The world can't legitimize them.What wou…



455. Retirement Age Will Have To Be Raised Since People Are Living Longer By Lance Winslow
     With people living longer we have some problems as those with pensions will be receiving monies much longer than anticipated. They will be using hospitals and need care longer and all of this will cost us more. Also at issue is Social Security as we have been listening to in the news lately. Yes, the once small $1300 pay from the Roosevelt Ear has now reached epic proportions and the ponzy scheme is a financial crisis waiting to happen. You can also expect many of the huge pension fund contrib…



456. Voting Pro-Environment is Good For Jobs, Health, and Security By Mark Jeantheau
     There are many issues on the minds of US voters these days, but according to national polls, the environment ranks ...um... somewhere above hemp policy and just below humane treatment for Teletubbies.People are, of course, justly concerned about top issues such as health care, terrorism, and jobs. But the environment actually has a role to play in all of those areas. Below are some examples of how this is so.ENVIRONMENTAL VOTING CAN MEAN BETTER HEALTH"If you have your health, you have everythi…



457. Freedom, Independence. What Does it Mean to You?
     I grew up around my grandmother and her sisters and brothers. We didn’t have much in the way of outside influences or ‘store-bought’ entertainment and so Sunday afternoon story telling was always something I looked forward to. My elders were quite versed in history and were intelligent enough to question what was recorded as history. They often times weaved quotes from famous people in to their own life’s history as a means to emphasize the feel of the day, so-to-speak. I learned so much as a ch…



458. GM Attacked by Union and Democrat Motivated SEC By Lance Winslow
     May I ask why in the world that General Motors is being attacked now in the middle of a major reorganization? Well, could it be that the Union having negotiated with the company to reduce health care benefits, which is bleeding the company dry, now wants to change their mind? Delphi just filed bankruptcy, Ford announces 250 plus million dollar losses in the third quarter and General Motors has considered dumping GMAC and all of this ought to be a sign to folks that in fact things are tough in …



459. The ninth amendment: It's cool!!
     Recently, Colorado passed a law banning participation in “toughperson” fighting competitions. This is wrong and unamerican. I believe the right to engage in consensual violence falls under the ninth amendment right to privacy. What makes the United States great is choice. Our government was founded on choice. The right to chose the words I speak; the right to chose the way I worship; the right to assemble peaceable and to question my government; and the right to chose to arm or not to arm myself…



460. Man: Demented Savage or Stranger in This Strange Land By Bob Harrison
     Man kills. And he seems to be good at making it seem sensible. It is uncomfortable to feel that it is part of our nature, but we have been killing for as long as we have drawn breath. From fist to club to arrow to gun to bomb to surgeon’s knife, man has become an accomplished killer. If you believe that we are accidents of biology, then your explanation may be that it is a residual but natural product of our evolution from a reptilian brain to a languaged one. If you believe also that there is…



461. Experience the Civil War with Your Ears
     How much do you know about the Civil War? Can you name intense battles that occurred during the struggle? What areas of the United States were home to the bloodiest Civil War battles? The Civil War had a profound effect on the United States society, beliefs, and actions. It is important to understand the role the Civil War played in the interactions of cultures and industry today. You might have touched upon the Civil War in your high school History class. However, in college you majored in math…



462. A Guide to Election Night for the Non-Political Junkie
     Even if you are not a political junkie like I am, you will still probably find yourself glued to your TV set on election night. Obviously, you'll be waiting to find out whether President George W. Bush will be elected or if Senator John F. Kerry of Massachusetts will become our 44th President. Will everything you see and hear that night be interesting? Will it even make sense to you? Well, if all you are interested in is finding out who wins, you may be in for a long and boring night. Volumes o…



463. A Journey Through History By Humair Ishtiaq
     History repeats itself, goes the cliche. It does so, perhaps, for the human beings to have more than one chance of learning a lesson if they have missed out on the first opportunity. If Pakistani history is anything to go by, it is a clear indication that they, as a nation, happen to be pretty dumb fellows, unable to learn anything at all despite the fact that history has been very kind to them by way of repeating the same chain of events time and time again. They sure have disappointed histor…



464. A Trade War is brewing; Are We Paying Attention By Lance Winslow
     Incompetence is all too obvious at the trade shows of major industries in the United States. At the AAPEX Trade Show, it was apparent that the PTO needs to answer some of those Viagra Spam-emails; because they are absolutely Impotent to the piracy of patents, trademarks, concepts and innovations in our country. There was at least, and this is not an exaggeration, 10 Football fields of Knock-Off Asian products at the show of patented products manufactured in China, Singapore, Taiwan, South Kore…



465. Why Christian and atheist libertarians get along
     I’m the most religious guy in the Libertarian Party. At least that’s what my friend, Charlie, decided. I don’t know if his bit of insight was meant to be a compliment or a mere observation. Either way, I suppose there are others more deserving.For his part, Charlie is a declared atheist. And, therein lays a dilemma for some libertarians. How can I — a certified, card-carrying Bible thumper — stand shoulder to shoulder with a guy who’s never thumped a Bible in his life?In spite of ourselvesOne ma…



466. Eurovision Song Contest - End this Embarassment
     Tonight I resigned myself to the fact that this is the last Eurovision Song Contest I shall ever watch. In fairness the only reason I did watch it was due to media reports mentioning that steps had been taken to try and mitigate the blatant vote rigging that takes place each time the contest is aired. I should have known better.I suppose the early warning signs were there before I even sat down to witness this debacle. My mother has long stopped watching the show. When I spoke to her on the phon…



467. Listen...
     You still don't get it, do you?First of all if you're going to pretend to care for those that were murdered on 9/11 you should at least know the correct number of those that died, 2,819. (…



468. The New Age Movement
     What is the New Age Movement? It is similar to New Age Spirituality, but different enough to warrant its own definition. The New Age Movement is a belief that the human race is all one. It is not about equality nor diversity. It is the idea that your gender, age, religion, race, nor sexual orientation makes you better or worse then anyone else. The New Age Movement is moving away from the US against THEM mentality. It is inclusive, open, detached from labels, and above all else, it's based in lo…



469. The 25 Fallacies of President Bush's State of the Union Address on Terrorism ( Part 1 )
     On 20 January 2004, George Bush Jr. the President of the United States gave his last (?) State of the Union Address. In this article, I will point out 25 fallacies of the speech on the war on terror.Fallacy 1. 'By bringing hope to the oppressed and delivering justice to the violent, [the American servicemen and women] are making America more secure.' Apologists of the war on terror are quick to point out that there have not been any major attacks on the U.S. since September 11, 2001. But what of…



470. Health Care Statistics 101
     In a healthcare statistics class I had last year, the instructor told us that the United States ranked seventh in infant mortality and she asked us - the class - what we thought might be the reason for the US not being number one, having the best available health care in the world and all. I raised my hand and told her that it was likely that every other country that ranked ahead of us had universal health care while the US did not and factors like better pre-natal care and such were the reasons…



471. Thomas Paine / Jefferson By Robert Baird
     Conor MacDari was a Mason but his Masonry deplored the British 'alehouse and tavern denizens'. Jim Shaw and many other top Masons have written as much truth as they know. There are many heads or names in the 'octopus' of Freemasonry and we have only touched upon a few of them including the Bilderbergs. Barrett gives us the beginning of a glimpse into the influence of Masons on the founding of America, albeit a misleading one that he could be excused for not knowing in any one specific instance…



472. Spin Cycle
     It's possible that a seminal moment in the history of electronic news occurred when a comedian confronted commentators ... Not long after Jon Stewart --- host of the Comedy Central cable channel's amusing newscast, The Daily Show --- appeared on CNN's staid Crossfire and roundly scorched its principals in a well-publicized confrontation over journalistic integrity (or the lack thereof), the news network announced that Crossfire was being cancelled. Ostensibly, the network said this move was due …



473. Workers By Al Thomas
     We have read about the unemployment rate being high. Really anything around six percent is pretty good and it is less than that now according to the statistics, but some politicians say it is terrible and others say it is reasonable. It depends upon which side of the isle you sit.Our Washington geniuses claim they are working on finding more employment. We have lost 2.7 million jobs over the last 3 years. That doesn’t matter if you are NOT one of them. Finger pointing by everyone in our capito…



474. The Ironies Of MASH
     The TV show MASH ran for 11 years taking nearly every opportunity to bash the US involvement with the Korean War, which was actually an allegory for Vietnam. Many episodes showed a moral relativism between the US side and the communists, the doctors(with the exception of Frank Burns) made no distinction between the wounded and often talked about declaring the war a tie so they could go home. The MASH set sometimes was a tense place to work, especially in the early years. One episode featured a s…



475. Questioning Both Sides of the GM Crop Debate By Lance Winslow
     One question not addressed in GM Crops and Monsanto Terminator Seeds Debate and one which cannot be found in any of the online white papers on the subject is: What is known about Bee Pollination with regards to these things, if the seeding an cross-pollination cannot use the services of the Bees and Butterflies then this too could mean lower yields and thus hurt Monsanto and those which buy certain seeds from certain crops from them as well as feeding the world? And what about Wild crops in so…
