i know what he did, and it was wrong, theres nothing anyone on this forum can do to change that
nothing you can do to alter the course of government besides vote or write letters
nothing at all, besides terrorism and other immature acts
have you heard of boycott?
right but its harder when you consider how large the us is
theres no centralized city....
and people did protest, to no effect
they would hide bush and bring him through at random times
or cancel the event
the last thing anybody wants in america is to violently overthrow the government, because we know our army is too powerful for that

because people don't boycott shit for the sake of doing it right, they do it for immediate measurable effect... so when boycotting everything that's not proper and fair is going to be "kewl" we can hope to see effects. the right thing to do is not a motivation in itself
so they gotta do a sort of kewl media product called boycott, endorsed by a few kewl stars, and everybody will jump in. like they did with obama

notice that those were under different presidents and policies.
which people voted for,
which is all anybody can do.
if you want to pull a Tienanmen square be my guest.
if you want to call up bono and angelina jolie to start a "save the world" fund be my guest.
but last time i checked im not a senator so i dont know why your trying to get me to say "alright man! im gonna go down to washington and say ' IM MAD AS HELL AND IM NOT GOING TO TAKE IT ANYMORE' "because that wont accomplish anything. but i encourage you to fly out here and give it a go.

That's my point innit. People hating the US didn't start with Bush. Prolly won't end with him too.

I struggle to pull birds mate, let alone mass murder of protesting students.

Good reply. I might ring Ghandi whilst I'm at it too.
but last time i checked im not a senator
No shit. You obviously didn't pass English class either, by the looks of things.

yeah, workers know better, they proved it already...
swaping one myth for another
how about a rise of merit, utility and truth against everything that's a fraud in the system? correcting all lies in our lives and the system should bring some progress, as history proved, living in a fairytale like communism, capitalism, socialism and all that crap is like living among the reptilians

the majority are too blind to even consider they are being lied to. thats the problem. this whole system would not work if ppl realised somthings not right and demand the truth

precisely my point
and for that matter "bickering" on internet helped a lot improving things lately :]
spreading the word and doing your part of conscious living might take a while to change things, but i don't think there's anything else they're not already prepared to deal with, if anything
eg they won't be able to come on tv and say they represent a nation when 15% of the nation voted, but when they had a big majority voting they can pass any bullshit regulation saying that's what they've been voted for. and then the citizen takes the blame for his vote
so fucking stay home next voting, don't dance their tunes like you're a huge choreographic group for this hot new rapper called obama or his indie version in uk or whatever it might be the case
we take exams for all sorts of shit to get a job, a grade, we have to prove ourselves, but for them it's all about proving themselves best POLITICIAN, not best COMPETENCE. it's all about finding the best manipulative schemes, best media approaches and shit. that only qualifies them as best decievers
we need a system based on competence and good results, not on messing with rednecks' minds

what's wrong with people just being aware enough to mention things?
so what if people are powerless?
do you expect them to blind themselves to the truth or lack of just because they have no chance?
