1. I agree so much
I remember when some sick prick threw a woman's dog off a freeway overpass and killed it. Then was like a $50,000 reward posted by private citizens to catch the guy.

Yet, a woman is raped, a guy at a convenience store gets shot etc and nothing is done. Kinda tells you how we feel about our fellow man.

3. Good thing for Bush that Micheal Jackson is a pedophile
Starting this week we will get 24/7 coverage of the next "trial of the century" and see one of the greatest tragedies to mankind, a corrupt election, the eroding of the Bill of Rights pushed off the radar screen for the red states. Stop the presses we have the Jackson trial to worry about.

5. You got that right
This is going to make the OJ brou-ha-ha look like a footnote.

I cancelled my cable service already, so at least I'll be spared the worst of it. Just got tired of being reminded of how dumb and gullible we are, y'know?

6. Bush could tear up an anvil
My mother use to accuse my brothers and I of being able to destroy the "un-destroyable." Bush takes the best country in the world and makes it a third-rate punchline to the masses - in four short years - what will we look like after another four years on this inept monkey man's policies?

7. I think it shows how detached people-especially kids-are from the
world around them, and while a puppy is a tangible familiar concept, death and destruction is just what is seen on tv as part of the news and tv shows, while horrible, it doesn't seem that real to the viewers. much like how * said during the debates how he understands the suffering in Iraq-he sees it on tv.
