Two things.

1) Have you read them, or seen the movie?

2) This is the part that really bothers me: saying what you said is like me saying saying, as an atheist, I refuse to see any movies about religion. That's absolutely ridiculous. The Passion promotes Catholicism! BOYCOTT IT!!!!!


Yes I enjoy many movies about religion. Dogma, Life of Brian, Narnia, Evangelion has much of its roots in Christian myth.

So you want to replace Neo-Cons with far left lunatics. Talk about trading down.


Better to have a lunatic that doesn't want to kill anyone for oil, take away your rights, torture prisoners (we imprisoned Japanese for water boarding in WW2), give people the right to marry, not reduce carbon emissions, Oh yeah and lie about reports on Iran. Bush is a murderer. Rudy won't be any better. Lunatics that want peace are better than Nazis that want war. And about Cheney I think Keith Olberman says it best "An unapologetic warmonger who has long been seeing a world visible only to himself". I can't see any mentally-stable person with a positive image of bush. I just want to see the way he tries to "Wags the dog" out of this one.

Tell me, sean wookie: What color is the sky in your world?


It's what I'd like them to do not what I'd expect them to do.


...why on Earth would you want them to do these things? The President gets paid to run the country, not run it into the ground.


Most of my reasons for what I support have good moral reasons. And this president ran the country into the ground pretty horribly. Fucking Neocons are Anti-American.

Why you so against Huckabee, I like the hell outta the guy.


1. He really likes to raise taxes. (The fact he now claims that a democrat-run legislature forced him to support tax increases is cowardly, probably a lie, and another reason to not like him.) He called a pro-taxpayer group in Arkansas a group that was pro "greed." At the very least he thinks it's okay for our government to take in too much money.

2. He really likes wasteful spending on supposedly compassionate programs. He actually thinks he's on a mission from God to waste taxpayer dollars and destroy our economy in the name of helping the poor. He just recently criticized George W Bush for vetoing that horrible s-chip bill the democrats tried to pass! He's a religious nut without a proper perspective of ethics (or the bible for that matter).

3. He was incredibly friendly to illegal immigrants. For instance, he wanted to give free, in-state tuition to the children of illegal immigrants. If you think having Bush in office is bad on immigration, wait till Huckabee gets in. I don't believe him if he says he'll be tough with immigration.

I think I have more problems beyond this, but I can't remember them at the moment. Those are at least the big ones for me. He's only, perhaps, good with judges. (I say perhaps because he doesn't understand the proper role of the federal government and probably wouldn't know an "originalist" judge if he saw one. All he cares about is abortion and there are more concerns out there.)


...Holy crap... I was actually considering voting for this guy come primary time.

If all that is true, I'm leaning more and more towards Guliani. I know he's got some unwelcome liberal view points, but he's fiscally more conservative than most candidates up there and is strong on national security. Immigration is the big sticking point. Thompson and Romney most closely reflect my own views, but Thompson has had a poor showing since he announced his candidacy and Romney strikes me as dishonest....

Ugh. This election is so easy in a way: all three of the Democrat candidates are horrible. On the other hand, none of the Republican candidates strike me as strong Conservative leaders. The conservatives are weak candidates and the strong candidates are moderate in some form or fashion.


Who is the third?

There is some things I want the next President to do:

1. Legalize same sex marriages
2. Take the troops home
3. Undo The Patriot Act
4. End "don't ask don't tell"
5. Prosecute Cheney and Bush for war crimes
6. End the drug war
7. Legalize pot because it's harmless.

Why do you feel so threatened by him.

Please feel free to point out the part where I said I was threatened by Micheal Moore, because I sure can't find it. I was not all that unserious about what I wrote. I am really getting sick of politicians. A politician that says, "Hey, of course I was lying, I am a politician after all!!" would be a breath of fresh air to me. I think Micheal Moore might be a good alternative to a good number of the canidates. Of course then our country would be a huge joke, but maybe we deserve that.

But as far as being threatened by Michael Moore, it does say something about our country that we are so willing to believe what we want to hear, even when it is proven false we go believing it unphased. Maybe I should feel threatened by that fact, but I really don't. As far as politics and the world situation goes, there is really no reason to feel threatened by any of it anymore. What will be will be.


Maybe it's just the mentioning of Moore, Pelosi, Hilary that gets to me. I can't say I'm a fan of Hilary or Pelosi. Maybe I'm just looking at FreeRepublic.com too much.

C'mon most politicians have had to hike taxes at some point or another, they all have done it. Usually they go down in other places, but nobody mentions that. I think you all are really writing Huckabee off too quickly.


Maybe I am, but I'm not a Republican so I'm not voting for him anyway, Mccain is crazy, Romney is a Morman (The people on Free Republic seem not to like that), Guliani is too liberal and pro-choice(Liberals absoulutely hate him I'm not kidding he is the scariest candate), I've heard things about Huckabee not being a true conservative (have to look more into this.) My bet for the nomination is Romney but I want Paul to get it. I stand for many things Paul stands for Librtarianism, Against the war, anti-drug war, ending don't ask don't tell, against the patriot act. He seems like a decent and honest man, that is probly why Faux News nd the mainstream media ignores him.

You use the a SD card for the file storage.

And when you buy the R4 it comes with something so you can connect the SD card into your computer. It's the orange thing in the picture.

Not to mention it folds up to protect itself, and even the non "Lite" version is by no means large and clunky, something that defines the PSP. And DS can play GBA games (Metroid Fusion!) and it has Phantom Hourglass. I like the whole sylus setup too, another thing the PSP lacks, thanks to Sony being void of imagination.

Well, I googled around for a while, and found that there is a device that can be bought for the DS for as little as $39 that allows it to play home brew (which would include the GB emulator) as well as Mp3, pictures, ebooks, and Divx files. That would make it in my opinion the singularly most useful handheld device in the history of mankind. All it lacks is a means of fast worldwide transportaion, a cloaking device, laser canons, and an energy shield that makes its barer invincible. Once they have a version that can do all that, I shall perchase it then go to live the rest of my life in the mountians as a hermit. It'll be great!


I have one of those accessories that can be used for emulation. It is great!!!! I have tons of, SNES, NES, MAME and Genesis games. All you need is that device (which is like any regular DS game) and a SD card. You can back up your games and put them all on the card or download Japan only games!!!!!! But they won't emulate GB you need to get a separate card to do that that goes in the second slot.

The emulation device

Link for the GBA device

I'm getting a Nintendo DS for my Brother for Christmas I think I might get him a R4 as well.

I for one would like to see Micheal Moore run for President. The guy openly admits that he makes things up, exaggerates, and bends truth in his documentaries because his obligation is to entertain, not to truth. Yet, even with he himself admitting this, people still like to believe everything he puts in his documetaries and books. This makes him one of the most honest figures out there. While he lies, he admits to it, which makes him pretty honest. I liked honesty. While tons of people believe Moore's lies, it is their own faults because they look over the fact that he is a self proclaimed liar, so in effect they are lying to themselves. I bet if more people would choose to be honest about their lies like Moore is, they would have a better time getting away with their lies. It just goes to show people will believe what they want to just because they want to believe it. Moore would be the perfect canidate, because everyone would loves what he says choose to believe him, and for those of us like myself who choose to believe him when he admits to dishonesty can feel reassured that he is lying. I would rather be lied to by my President and know for sure he is lying than have to question his every word, and try to figure out what to believe and what not to believe. Too bad politicians can't be more like Moore more and say, "Hey, I am full of shit but you love me anyway! Vote for me!!!" (thunderous applause)


Why do you feel so threatened by him.

They want to please the flying man rather than the people, I'd rather believe in the Flying Spaghetti Monster.What I have against it is all the people killed over it and all controlling try to do. Why does it matter so much about gay people marrying to these people? I don't see anything wrong with it. It won't hurt anyone why do people feel so threatened. They also want to put creationism in school which is wrong.

Plus Huck hiked taxes.

And freed a rapist to who killed again.

It seems like the only decent Rep. is Ron Paul. He supports something on weather it's constitutional or not. Not on religious beliefs or personal opinion.

BTW I like what Brazil is doing here.\

But if were talking Dems. I like Kucinich.

And nobody likes Guliani too liberal for the GOP too much a criminal and asshole for the Dems.

"I firmly believe Gary should be the rival in every Pokemon game. No, I don't care if he's 45 by the time Diamond and Pearl or whatever is out.

He should also continue to be a total dick like he was from day 1. He was 10 years old driving around a convertible and had bitches at his beck and call. This should continue.

Whenever you enter a cave and come out with all your Pokemon are at 3 hit points? Gary appears.

Get through Team Rocket HQ, out of any healing items with your best team reduced to rubble? Gary rolls up in his mercedes.

When you finally attain all the badges you need, with your favorite Pokèmon battered and beaten? Yeah, Gary.

All your Pokèmon are knocked out and you're 5 tiles away from the Pokemon Center -- Guess who just blocked the entrance way and says he challenges you to a fight?

Fuck yeah, Gary Oak."
