If a woman who dresses provocative is raped, did she have it coming to her?
Well, would you consider someone dressing sharp to be a good provocation for being mugged? Would you consider someone being tall and stocky a good provocation for someone taking a cheap shot at them? Like some dipstick with an inferiority complex "picking on the biggest guy". How about driving a nice car? Does that entitle someone else to steal it from you? Rape is a crime of violence, not of sex. If some pig decides that he's gotta "take her down a notch" he has a mental problem. Either he gets help before he does it, or he gets beat after he does it. Rape isn't sexy, it's violence. -
Do you think that President Obama deserves the nobel peace prize?
I think that a world leader ought to do something more than give speeches or make science fiction movies to get a Nobel Prize. There were some good people who were passed over this year, including two Chinese Dissidents and a Physician who build a hospital for the poor in the Congo. I think that someone who actually DOES SOMETHING deserves more than a freshman President. -
Do you think obama was worthy of the nobel peace prize?
no
Some day President Obama MIGHT be worthy of a Nobel Peace Prize. I don't know what he's going to do in the future after all. He might actually get the US out of the Empire Business, which would be a good thing. To award him a prize so soon in his administration is almost an insult to the intelligence of all thinking people. -
Has the Nobel Peace Prize lost all credibility?
Some of the past peace prizes were very sharp people. Linus Pauling comes to mind. Psuedo-scientists like Gaia's High Priest, Al Gore, have tainted the worth of the prize. I wonder if someone bribed the Nobel Prize Committee for this year's award? Gotta wonder. -
Obama to sell B-2 Bomber Plans to China to help pay off debt. Is that why Tiny Tim is in China?
Undecided
Why should the Chinese pay official prices for technology when they can bribe someone in the Administration for much less money to get almost the same information? The Chinese are concerned that the US Congress and our President have the fiscal restraint of an Amelda Marcos in a shoe store with a limitless credit card. They realize that the US government cannot continue to spend money on vote buying schemes while destroying wealth creatoin. They probably also realize that countries which get into jackpots sometimes do stupid stuff, like starting wars. The Chinese are definitely NOT INTERESTED in starting wars with the US. It's not that they're afraid, they realize that wars can be won in "other ways" besides direct combat. -
Obama Issue #20: Technology?
I do not believe that the Obama / Biden ticket will make significant strides to erase the problems
I don't think that the Obama/Biden ticket realizes the limits of their power and knowledge. Yet. -
Is it about time for the press to quit treating Obama like a fragile china doll and start confronting the President about his frequent errors in judgment or his constant refusal to give direct answers to the questions facing his administration?
No.We don't really want to hear the truth anyway.
I think eventually the Press is going to realize that they've been treating our President like he won a competition in the Special Olympics. Of course to reach this state of awareness the US media is going to have to come to grips with the idea that many of them are closeted racists who do not think that people of color can do anything on their own and require pandering, praise and encouragement when one of them "gets lucky". -

Why should I treat Obama any differently than I have any other president before him?
None of the above
People who call President Obama "Obama" aren't treating him any different than people who called President Bush "Bush". A lot of Bush supporters referred to Bush as Bush,. Seems like the only ones who were treated differently were LBJ and FDR. Since nobody ever uses Mr. Obama's middle name "Hussein" we'll just use his first and last initials. How does "BO" sound to all of you? -
Nobel Peace Prize: Is the Norwegian Nobel Committee's Award Meaningful?
No Change: The Nobel Peace Prize Already Lost its Meaning
When Gore got the Prize for making a Science Fiction film I figured that the Committee had some bizarre thought processes. Now that a President in his first term, who has done some pretty provocative things to Russia and Iran, and who hasn't withdrawn from either Iraq or Afghanistan, is showing some pretty stupid thinking. I take some comfort from the fact that the average American doesn't care about Nobel Prizes but does watch what people do. So they are not going to suddenly want "Cap and Trade", "Health Care" and other Socialist claptrap because Obama got a prize. -
Are You Proud Obama won the Nobel Peace Prize ?
I am disapointed .
No. If he had actually done something concrete to deserve it I'd be inclined to be proud. Considering that we're still involved in two wars, dicking around in Georgia, rebuilding our nuclear warheads and threatening Iran what on Earth how on Earth can the Nobel Committee's decision be taken seriously? I swear the the Nobel Committee was put up to this to make "Progressives" delusional. -
Should Obama Have Won A Nobel Peace Prize?
No
I think that the Committee should have least waited until the midterm elections. This "award" is tantamount to some sort of boobie prize. It's an insult to the American people, and if Obama had a dollop of decency he'd turn it down. Except that Obama lacks such restraint... He probably thinks that he's entitled to it. -
Which award should Barack Obama recieve next?
All of the above
I think Supreme Global Commander, in recognition of his defeat of the Deathstar, Racist thought and the curing the Heartbreak of Psoriasis in his clandestine labs in the basement of the White House. Is there no limit to the Cult of Personality? Anywhere? -
Why don't you see as many Anti-Obama bumper stickers on cars as compared to Pro-Obama bumper stickers?
It's because conservatives are afraid of getting their car "keyed" if they put up anything critic...
...free speech is for "good thought". "bad thought" is "hate" and "we cannot tolerate bad thought". -
What's Your First Impulse When The Car In Front Of You Has An Obama Sticker On It?
None of the above
Depends.... If it's a "modest" car I figure that they were just eager for something other than neo-Con bullcrap. If it's an SUV, luxury car or an expensive import I figure that they're limousine liberals who figure that "big business" will be "taxed fairly" while "the poor" will be "helped", when in fact it's the exact opposite. -
D you think that Obama is capable of creating 2.5 million new jobs the 1st year he is in office?
No (explain please)
He's the President.... unless he declares a State of Emergency and by Executive Action creates positions for 2.5 million Concentration Camp Guards he's gonna have to depend upon the Congress to appropriate the money. -
Joe Wilson - Out of LIne?
What Representative Wilson did was in poor taste, however I agree that President Obama has been ...
I'm a big believer that one does things at a proper time and place. The President deserves to give a speech without any interruption. On the other hand, I think that Mr. Obama has been less than candid about his "health care", especially with the speed that he's been urging everyone in Congress to make in passing it. I suspect that, like the stimulus plan, there is some freebies for some people, to be paid for out of our hides. I cannot see with twenty million illegal immigrants how the "Plan" will avoid covering them. So I think that Mr. Obama is either being a liar in his speech or he's glossing over an aspect of the plan that has not been debated yet. In either case, a lot of us outside of the Beltway are doing a slow burn.... So, in a sense, Mr. Wilson speaks for many of us, who are tired of being conned by Republicans and Democrats who do things for our "own good" without asking us what we really want. We're not children, Mr. Obama. Quit treating us like them. We can add, subtract multiply and divide and we know that you can't "cover the uninsured" without extending this to people in the US who are not here legally. Simple logic.
