Intellegence services? Spies? Every country uses them, intellegence and counter intellegence just use google its rife. China vs USA and Russa and much of asia.

Well hey we all know Facebook... CIA? Take a look at this topic on the iVirtua Community: Facebook's Draconian Rules: We Own You and Your Content and the CIA's perfect personal database

Why not just google "facebook CIA" too: http://www.google.com/search?q=facebo...tf-8&oe=utf-8

Slightly on a tangent, but this is quite interesting... http://www.jihadwatch.org/

If they are balanced, why have they not highlighted on the impeach cheney movement?


Because that's a wacko, extreme leftist movement. Most people are content with adhering to our stable government system, rather than taking after the ways of countries like Venezuela or Guatemala, who can't have a stable government for any length of time. So most of us will just wait out the next year, when Bush and Cheney will be removed as per every other American presidency.

When you can prove that Bush and/or Cheney conspired to do anything outside of the law -- you have a case for impeachment. As far as I know, though, "I'm an angry liberal and I hate Bush and his cronies" doesn't count as a legitimate argument.

Why are they not promoting Ron Paul?


Because that would be quite subjective. If they were balanced, they'd provide people with even information about all candidates -- not just promotional to Ron Paul. What the hell is your definition of the word "balanced," anyways?

I am making that comment regarding musolini's definition of it being "corporatism".


We already knocked that out the window, because as I recall, you were downright wrong about all the media sources being under one roof. "Corporatism" my foot. America isn't fascist -- you have yet to provide any facts supporting your outright ludicrous claim. Maybe you think it's popular to bash conservatives and the current government as do a lot of people, but none of you extreme leftist nutjobs seem to recall that in "Fascist" countries, media was under the government's control. Dissident reporters were SHOT, if you recall.

The media CAN LIE ON TELEVISION AND THEY HAVE NUMEROUS TIMES TO COUNT! There were two FOX News employees fired just for trying to tell the truth about a product, and they lost in their court case to fight for their jobs.


I'd rather have a link to the incident that you refer to, rather than take your word for it. See, I do this thing called "research" before I form my opinion, and it's amazing what you can find out.

almost everyone is with me!!


1.) This is not going "well," you're an idiot and kind of a sicko to even think that.
2.) No one is "with" you. You can barely type, and you have yet to present any reasonable arguments. You just hate.

Civilians of USA:: Are U blaming ur Govt.? or yourselves!!??


I'd like to know what I'm blaming any group or entity for before I answer your fairly arbitrary question.

mac_pro wrote:
I think we can blame both cause the democracy our forefathers had was based off people power.


We never had a democracy, especially in the beginning. This country has ALWAYS been a Republic, and the early days of this country were much, MUCH less for people-power. Most people weren't even allowed to vote -- that was the duty of the Electoral College, who were basically there to vote for the people -- not necessarily with them.

Yes, "we all know" that, based on a few unsupported, unscrupulous words in a forum post, Facebook is clearly in league with the CIA.

...that was sarcasm, I hope you realized. Honestly, it's rather amazing what people immediately think when an ex-CIA member in business invests in something. If they invest in Facebook, so what? Does that automatically make Facebook a CIA operation? It might come as a cold surprise to anyone that Rupert Murdoch, the chairman of mac_pro's favorite company, News Corporation, owns MySpace.

Because we're not idiotic extremists, we're a stable and civilized nation, and we know that in one year, we will be able to re-elect our leaders getting rid of this so-called fascist government.

One nice thing about this "Fascist" government is that they more or less give a shit about the military. Which I'm a member of.

thats why u love it cause u love to kill people without any reason and hesitate!!
if u read mario puzos's GODFATHER,
Don Corlione said "If any cop arrest my son, or shot by police, or killed by anyone or even a THUNDER hits him, I will not forgive anyone of this council!!"
so if i die its US!!! LOL!!

It is a love-hate relationship for me just like my relationship with my PC. I hate it when I get  Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) and I love it when I realize the good things it has done for me.

I think it's pretty hard to judge a country by a few people that run it..
The people that run America are complete bastards, but America is generally ok, but this applies to most countries to be honest.. in the UK our government are complete bastards too.. just ona  smaller scale than the USA.

I don't know what yours are I was just making an example of a candidate who is not publicized. Mit Romney is another one along with Dennis Gavel?

Reporters for the truth can't even get through. Why has the media not made a big story about the North American Union? The only one media outlet was CNN that did that one. Why does the media not report more on poltiics than for say celebrities? Maybe to hide dirt? Why has there been alot more classification of documents? http://www.fas.org/sgp/news/2004/09/wt091804.html

Last time I knew, we have 100,000 private contractors in Iraq which is completely ludicrous.

Really, I am surprised you haven't shown me your research and then making a claim. Calling pot the kettle black eh?

So then how did we get freed from England's control?

Murdoch turned the Sun around completely around from politics to a moden day sensationalistic newpaper.
