Saddam Hussein must have shed a few tears this weekend for the death of his old friend Reagan.

It was Reagan, after all, who helped him secure power in Iraq.

Strangely coincides with the appearance of AIDS...

Does that mean we should be wary of Arnie?

I read recently about the Republicans decision to change that amendment... it was an article linked to Arnie's possible future.

Ooops... you should have replied to the second one!!! I accidentally hit post comment before I had finished my whole comment, so I quickly deleted it and finished up my thoughts.

Now this thread is very messy! There is nothing that irks me more than a messy thread :P hahaha

huh? Which comment? I can't delete your comments on this thread... only my "ooops" comment.

Anyway, I guess you didn't like what I had to say about AIDS since you never responded to that comment. Is that the one you want me to delete? Even if I did I couldn't reinstate the accidental one that was deleted on this thread.

Does any of this make sense?

Luckily enough Arnie would need a constitutional amendment to become President. So it is very unlikely. But yes, it was the same theory. republican governors from California are very attractive to the republican party because California is generally a democratic state. An actor even more so, because it is an easy sell.

The whole AIDS thing has been hotly debated. No doubt that the appearance of the virus had more to do with the curtailing of sexual promiscuity than anything the republicans ever did. There is a circle that believes that it was in fact them who allowed for the virus to be introduced into the public. I have never seen any evidence to suggest this is true. It is purely conjecture. That said I could imagine these "people" doing something like that. It is not inconsistent with their other abhorrent behavior, but if it is such a deep and truly evil conspiracy then I personally am at a loss for words (and to know me, is to know that that is a rarity).

Until evidence is presented in front of my face to prove such a thing I will remain skeptical. The truth remains that many right wingers in the US were overjoyed at the appearance of the virus. It is suspicious that the group who first contracted it was reviled by the republican party. To simply say that it spread throughout a certain community first because there is far more blood being exchanged in anal sex is naive at best. There are just as many instances of hetero anal intercourse as homosexual...

...but to take this to its logical conclusion is to be face to face with evil in its purest form.... I rather not believe that just yet...

I once met a former CIA agent that confessed to me that yes, AIDS was a manufactured virus, yes it was a conspiracy, yes it was made to kill blacks and gays, and yes "they" have had the perfect antidote for it all along.

I didn't know him well, but I don't think he was lying. I'm good at reading people.

If thats so then why not use the antidote now? If you used it as a vote winner it would be a real positive issue in your campaign right now, if Bush gave America a cure it would be good for him.. so I don't believe it unless the virus has mutated beyond that antidote.

There's a great tv documentary show on the BBC, called Horizon, and they did a show on the nature of the AIDS virus. Essentially, it's the strongest "thing" in nature! The level in which it mutates and grows has never been seen on this planet before.

Ye I’m a CIA agent too! And I also love going around telling government secrets to people I barely know.

(actually if I really was.... I would.)

I went to high school in Hong Kong and one of my friends was American. Her mother was the head of security of the American Embassy there and she didn't even tell things to her husband. They took their secrecy very seriously... and she wasn't even in the CIA.

Well, I don't believe in any evil conspiracies when it comes to Aids. I've read a few articles and seen a documentary about the appearance of the virus. They can already trace it's beginning and how it spread in San Francisco, and from there around the world.

But it's true that they loved it's appearance, which makes their whole Christian stance even more abbhorant.

Exactly which Christian stance are you referring to?

Because some right wing nutters have that stance, does not make it the Christian stance.

I was referring to the evangelical christians which (i think) he mentioned? It's true that not all christians feel that way - particularly catholics. Unfortunately, the ones that do feel that way, tend to hog the media so much more viciously to pass along their views.
