John Kerry called sikhs terrorists on nation television in America

half the world thinks that, nothing new, its up2 us 2 teach ppl. well at least he knows now n its 1 less 2 make aware

LOL, As sad as it sounds, half of the world doesn't even know about Sikhs.. :|

It was really funny ..just within the last week or so..I did a paper on comparitive religions..and it happened to involve Sikhism..

So, I made this comment..it went something like this:

Guru Nanak Dev Ji established Sikhism, which is now dubbed as the world's fifth largest religion.

And the instructor....took a red pen.....and circled both Guru Nanak Dev Ji and Sikhism..and wrote on the side, YOU SURE? - Check your facts! I've never even heard of this religion..

LOL, and this is coming from an highly intellectual individual!

Imagine the rest....

Actually jee, if you look carefully, BUSH said that they had WMDs. France, Germany, and Russia said they didn't. the UN WEAPONS INSPECTORS SAID THAT THEY DIDN'T. Iraq THEMSELVES said that they didn't. If they had them, there were PLENTY of opportunities for the Bush administration to send in weapons inspectors which would not involve 10,000 deaths.

In October 2002, the UN security council unanimously called in Iraq to hault its WMD programs or face 'consequences'. Just incase you're not sure, France and Russia and permanent members of the council and Germany was on the council during this vote as well.

Hmmm, hauling programs that don't exist huh? Weird. :T:

And ANYBODY taking an economics class will tell you that Reganomics FAILED. MISERABLY.

Really? Not my economics professor. It all depends on the kind of economist. There's different strains of economic theory my friend. Many, though not all economists credit Reagan's economic policies for a '17 year boom

But does supporting a brainless <banned word filter activated> help anyone?

Brainles <banned word filter activated> huh? I read a New York Times article yesterday, (which I will post once I find the link) which showed how Bush has a higher IQ than Kerry, based on military tests and Bush's SAT scores. Just because someone is not a smooth talker, it doesn't make them an <banned word filter activated>.

Which would have still been LESS than what Bush did...

Your cynicism never ceases to shock me. You have this image in your mind of Bush being some hopelessly evil monster who wants to steal as much money from working people as possible. This image is WRONG. No one believes it, except for people who enjoy being cynical. Democrats could be elected to the white house for the rest of eternity and oil prices will continue to rise. It will eventually reach $100 a barrel, and then $150 a barrel.

Propagana, yes. But if it were untrue, he would have been sued right? (answer: he wasn't sued -- and plus, you have A LOT of video footage, don't tell me he made that up too!)

Found the NYT article:

Also, a Supreme court ruling from about 2 decades ago allows for slander of "public figures". Moore has been sued before by smaller people who've been misrepresented in his movies (Columbine and Fahrenheit), but he's never been sued by elected officials because their lawsuits wouldn't be allowed.

Waheguroo Jee Ka Khalsa!

Waheguroo Jee Kee Fateh!!

If it were up to me I'd vote for Paul Martin of the Liberal Party... Oops, wrong country.

( A little bit of comic relief. Ease the tension ya know?) I think everyone can agree on this though, no matter who gets chosen they're going to be the next victims of internet spoof geeks. Now I think I'll go to a subject that's more on the sikhi side of things... Or more Canadian at least. :wub: )))) :nihungsmile: :e:

Watch FahrenHYPE 9/11.

Its an independent movie, just came out recently which contains dozens of interviews of people who were in Fahrenheit 9/11 who all said that Moore misrepresented what they had to say.

It debunks the entire movie.

Yup, here is one of the many accounts:
