May seem crazy to say but on some level or another we want it. Isn't that what all the fighting is about? Having or not having. I think Tears for Fears were on to something. Ha have a nice Sunday.

Not me. My family is enough to take care of.

didn't the Canadians start this?  whats good for the goose is good for the gander.  every Friday we should do something more profound.  lets see, the immigrants had a big protest. what if we did that every Friday.  skipped work and protested all day long outside federal and state government offices.  that would make a statement.  but I'm afraid that the consequences would be to great for most people to try.  but how much do you really care about our troops and our country.  one man can't do much, but a nation certainly can.

It has certainly been eventful!  I hope you found something in my/our responses to make you consider your position and outlook on the GLBT community, in general.\n\nI daresay we'll "cross swords" again\n\nMy day is nearly over - enjoy yours.

No, I was up, off and on all night. Today a lot of things in my life will change, for the better," It's time Raffiki", that is a line from the Lyon King. As far as the rest of your day, make it right, I'm sending you lot of energy with wonder dust, you go buy yourself a red bull. Have a good day, life is not promised my friend, good thing you got up at all, that's half the battle.\nGod bless us all...

You can ask that question with a name like yours? Interesting. I guess we all feel passionately about our viewpoints. Can you be open minded enough to understand why this issue is so important to many people? We are talking about our rights and our lives.

Of course today is a happy day. This is the day that we can all do something that will actually make a difference. Today is the day you can tell the leaders of your country you arent happy with them and change the course of our country.

Well, Moon, as it's still only the first round, it is far too early to tell. That said, I do like what's been happening so far. As correctly predicted here, the loathsome fat-cat red wings of dread detroit -- the #1 seed in the playoffs -- were unceremoniously dumped by the underdog Edmonton Oilers last night in six games! WOOHOO!!! Also, over the weekend, the Colorado Avalanche took out the hated dallas stars, another favourite, so again: WOOHOO!!!\n\nWhen my glorious Buffalo Sabres remove the utterly hateful philistinia floaters tonight (or Thursday night, either way, they go), the happiness trifecta will be complete and my three most hated NHL teams will have been eliminated in one fell swoop (I'll save that last WOOHOO!!! for later, lol). I love nothing more than to revel in the victory of the good and triumph in the defeat and abject humiliation of the evil -- and this applies to EVERYTHING! :)\n\nBut I digress... One reason these could be the greatest Stanley Cup playoffs of all time is that we missed out on ANY hockey all of last year because of the NHL lockout. Hockey came back in its full raiment of glory this season with rules changes which have directly correlated with a vastly improved on-ice product. Hockey has never been so good! Another reason -- indeed, THE reason! -- this could be the greatest playoffs ever is that my Sabres are so awesomely talented that they could conceivably go all the way and WIN Lord Stanley's Cup! Were that to happen -- and it's far too early to say now -- I would die and go to heaven on the spot! (OK, not literally... I don't even believe in heaven.) ;)\n\nAs for my expectations, well, I'm quietly confident my Sabres will continue to advance after defeating those despicable goon flyers tonight in their hellhole home in philistinia (Can ya tell I hate that godforsaken place and their truly horrible people?). But can they go all the way? In the East, where my Sabres play, Ottawa and New Jersey will be tough opponents and they may have to defeat both to continue (Carolina is struggling badly with Montreal and I'm not worried about facing either of them). If they can get out of the conference, I like their chances in the Cup Final, no matter who they face from the West. But again, all that is a long way away...\n\nLet's Go Buf-fa-lo!!! Let's Go Buf-fa-lo!!! Let's Go Buf-fa-lo!!! :)

I think it's interesting how the majority of the 'disagrees' are disagreeing with something that wasn't even stated. All this concerns is people of little faith. It says nothing about people of much faith.\n\nI could see how this makes sense. If you're not really committed to anything, that may say something about strongly you feel things. If you're not capable of feeling strongly either way, you can't really feel hatred.\n\nOh, and I like your new hairdo ^_^

It's not one or the other. Other people and countries are making out like bandits while we sink and yes it is all their fault! They were smart enough and willing to do what was necessary to make change or take advantage of opportunities. We sit around on our overfed behinds debating issues sometimes yes, but really we're more worried about what's going to happen tonight on Lost. We never get past a half baked debate, we never implement real, sensible working plans. When we do put a plan in place if it doesn't work we just keep hammering away with it, instead of looking in a new direction! The list goes on and on...but where do i see America headed... welcome to the new third world!...only we have a plethora of malls and Burger Kings. It's so sad really, I grew up(an I'm only 30 now!) thinking America was the greatest. Now i feel more like any day now they should just go ahead and replace the statue of liberty w' a beer gutted guy w' his pants around his knees, a remote in one hand and a burger in the other. Our laziness and apathy is our downfall, not other people.

always that fear of civil war again. but as for disagreements, every country has them. can't make everybody happy. always the discontents. but this country has too much to offer, for it to break up. too many checks and balances.

My day was not bad. Your day could have been alot worse. Doesn't seem like it but it could have been. No one has the worse day. We all have bad days and we all have good days. With every bad thing that happens something good will come out of it. We may not know it at the moment but we will sooner or later. Keep your head up and keep fight for what you want.

It would be "Do what you want" day. and people would be able to do things that normally they don´t do because they afraid of been criticized. Of course without hurt anybody in any way(hurt, kill, steal,etc)

There was a great essay I saw on this the other day, here:\n\nhttp://www.dailykos.com/story/2006/5/26/155350/677\n\nThanks to the original writer, I couldn't have said it better myself.  You can't wage a war against an emotion.  It's like the "war on love" or the "war on sadness", the "war on regret".  You just can't "win" or "lose", there is no goal.  I'm still trying to figure out how people got Iraq mixed up with "terrorism", despotic and tyrannical dictator and murderer, sure, but not a terrorist.

People say those things to encourage people.  If we didn't have encouragement we wouldn't always strive for things we wanted.  We must also balance this encouragement with some reality.

I think there is an element of truth in what you say.  But I think what is at the heart of what you are saying is tolerance.  If people could have a little more tolerance for people that were different than themselves then maybe there wouldn't be so much war/chaos.
