ssumpta:
When will this ACN get their Poo together. This just shows how unserious they really are.

But i will never understand why Nigerians hate Buhari so much.
Isn't it better we wear hijabs and have  basic amenities, than to be 'free' under a corrupt government, which is itself the worst form of slavery?
no it is not. you can't buy my religion with a promise of better amenities. Nigerians hate buhari so much bc the man
was draconian when he ruled. He used an iron fist. Killed many young men for crimes that should warrant imprisonment. He displayed tribalism. PTF did very little in the east. He made
dangerous religious statements when Nigeria was sitting on a keg of religious gun powder. He is power hungry. Wants to be president at all cost. Wants to cry his way into the hearts of voters. Well, tears don't win elections and as president tears won't build a nation. Where were his tears when PTF loaded hospitals with fake drugs? Where were those tears when lies were told against the likes of ekwueme who were bundled into prison while shagari was sent home. Abeg o, Delilah also cried for Samson. We know how that worked out. They can't even unite to form sound opposition against PDP. Why? Selfishness. And they want to use tears to gain ground.
Please we need democrats.
PDP may be a bunch of thieves but in this election, I'm all for Goodluck. Ribadu is acceptable but we have seen his inexperience. He can't handle foreign policy. Other world leaders will play him too. Goodluck has had some lessons in politics. The way he caries himself during the sick'adua era showed wisdom.
The way these elections have gone so fa showed sincerity( compare with what we had under that evil called OBJ)

Either you have Goodluck or you have badluck. The choice is ours.

My interest is in free and fair elections. That way power belongs to the people. Even if PDP wins all seats in free elections I will ne happy. The opposition parties dont impress me at all. How can u have a formidable foe like PDP and yet they can't unite to fight PDP? They are probably another set of thieves themselves. If they really love this country they will forget personal ambition and come together as one and fight PDP to finish. PDP thrives not just bc INEC is weak but mainly bx there is no strong opposition. A strong opposition prty won't stand by and watch PDP rig elections. A strong party will fight them to finish.

Eg, AC in Lagos is strong. PDP will find it hard to rig election in Lagos when AC is there. Imagine we have that kind of strong opposition allover the land. Who go rig?

first of all, thanks for being civilized in this debate. some peeps woulda started abusing others.

cap28:
However if the black person's dislike prevents the white person from getting a job, gaining a good education, being able to live wherever they want THEN it becomes a problem, how people feel about you is irrelevant - its what they do with their feelings that count.
i agree with this part of your quote, but i go beyond it. to me, a thief is not only the person who steals, but also the person who would steal if the opportunity comes.

@cap28, racism doesnt necessarily mean the inclusive power to execute prejudice. the mere possession of such an ideaology of racial prejudice with hatred and malice is enough to make someone a racist. wether such maliciousness is executed at all or not.

http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/racism

1. a belief or doctrine that inherent differences among the various human races determine cultural or individual achievement, usually involving the idea that one's own race is superior and has the right to rule others.
2. a policy, system of government, etc., based upon or fostering such a doctrine; discrimination.
3. hatred or intolerance of another race or other races.

Foreign AffairsRe: The Gop Governors Assault by preselect(op): 9:24pm On Mar 04, 2011
Hmmm, interesting. But the good thing about the US is they have a system of one man one vote. The people can still vote their choice regardless of the cooperations. And moreover they have a powerful recall system whereby errant politicians can be recalled and someone else elected even before next elections.

But if Americans are interested in American idol, next model etc, Then the big guns will continue to demolish them until they wake up.

But you just gotta give it to these republicans men. They just do their thing. Period.

I've watched with keen interests all the brouhaha in the Midwestern states of Ohio, winsconsin, Indiana et al, as well as in New jersey, my take on it? Elections matter. Period.

The republicans won the midterms and they are doing exactly as expected. I wish democrats act with similar boldness when they win. I remember the democrats being so disillusioned during the election in 2010, I was disillusioned too. But the clean sweep of democrats at the state level was some shellacking. Now the republicans are doing thier thing and people are protesting. Where were all these people during the election last yr?

Anyway, what has happened has happened, hope democrats get more involved in 2012 or else,

you won't understand. I'm a deep xtian. Period. My life story has convinced me there is a God in heaven. I have a PERSONAL rlshp wt him and yes he knows me by my name. I cannot base my religious belief on articles and books alone. No way. Even my medical training gave more proof that there is a God in heaven.

You have to convince me that your complex Swiss watch came up from some big bang theory before you can dream of telling me that all nature came from nowhere and nothing. No, I won't take that.

My research was to improve my knowledge not to question God but I begin to question a lot of thongs and at this point, truth be said, I'm confused. I gotta end this research, at least temporarily.

@thamesmead,
happy new yr my sister cheesy you are center left? Good for you. I'm an unapologetic red hot liberal. A socialist. I cannot describe my disappointment with the Obama administration after so much hope of a real change. Look at his budget. Looks like something written by the RNC or CPAC. Just to appease the right. And yet he won't get thier support. Why ia it that when America talks of deficit the first thing they do is to cut benefits for the poor? Cut de damned pentagon budget for starters. Where was deficit when they were giving tax cuts for the rich? I'm so ashamed.

As for Egypt, welcome to the stupendous hypocrisy of international politics. It's so irritating. I don't even want to talk about it. Obama is obsessed with re-election. He has no boldness to do the right thing without worrying about re-election. Look at his so called health reform( Which looks more like Romney's health reform in Massachusettes, a republican law that is on the right of bob dole's republican proposal I. The mid 90s) it took him and his congress 1 full yr to debate and get that bill and it took the republican congress one week or two to tear it down despite increasing polls for the bill. Look at new jersey governor, he doesn't care about reelection and he does his dirt without caring. Can't Obama be like that and at least do what he promised. He is obsessed with a re-election that he won't get. I was in Ohio last Xmas, he cannot win that state, those guys hate him. Even if he becomes republican they'll not vote for him. I also went to Virginia. He won't win there again. He has less than two yrs to do what he promised but he is busy claiming to be like Ronald Reagan, A very lousy president on whose watch the gap between the rich and the poor started to widen in America to what it is today.

Stupid!

Christianity EtcRe: Women And Relationships by preselect(m): 2:32pm On Feb 14, 2011
Tpiah your views are lopsided. It takes two to make a rlshp work and it takes two to destroy it.

Fact is, pray before choosing a patner.
No marriage is perfect, so don't even bother about your dream marriage. It won't happen. Your dream mr/mrs right is not existent.
If you had a boy/girlfriend in college whom you love and with whom you've been in a rlshp for yrs and you believe u r compatible, may be, just may be, that is the best person to marry. You already know each other for yrs.
Bf/gf is not de same as marriage. Even courtship and marriage are different. Married friends have told me from their experience that once that ring is there, something inexplicable happens.

What if it's the girl that has had a string of boyfriends? Marriage is not a competition. U say if he has had a strong of gfs and she can't match that number, so she should relax if she had an equal number of bfs or more?

Steroetypes matter. You don't want a marriage that would alienate you from your loving family members. For instance, in igboland there is something called osu. I'm sure there are a couple of threads about it here in nl if you want to know about it. I won't marry an osu. No matter how much I love the person. I'm not prejudiced but I won't want to destroy a lifelong and confirmed loving union with my family just bc of a rlshp with a girl that may even be over in two yrs. It's always good to marry whom your family approves. If you love the person too much then try to convince ur family first. But don't marry without their consent.

The problem is not getting married but remaining in marriage. What are u going to do when the marriage goes sour? Break up? Revenge? Cheat? Homicide? That is the true test of marriage. The old testament is littered with painful marriages. But many great men of God, some of whom had difficult marriages, remained married.

In a failed marriage, sometimes it's the man's fault. Sometimes it's the woman's fault. MOST times it's the fault of BOTH partners.

Dear Jesoul,
I decided to start by researching the history of the bible. I had to stop at a point bc the information I was getting was almost converting me into an atheist. However, I read somewhere, some sound advice urging me not to give up God's word bc of historical issues. Did you know that the Bible had 80 books? All of a sudden, 120 yrs ago, 14 books( know as the apocrypha)dissapeared from the Protestant Bible. No explanation, nobody knew who removed them.

Various translations have come. Majority of the translations were for political or for capitalistic purposes.
Did you know that the King James Version we have today is not exactly the KJV of 1611?
KJV of today was actually produced in the 1770s but they kept calling it 1611 bc that version is more marketable.
Then in the 1880s they removed 14 books from the bible?
Did you know that the catholic church did everything in it's power to suppress the production of the bible?
They also banned the translation of the bible outside Latin?so that they will have a monopoly of the scriptures and then control the entire Christendom.
There are rumors of a new translation that will be more politically correct. Only God knows what they will. Hange to make the bible more politically correct. Will they change the meaning of marriage? Or will they change the meaning of homosexuality? Haa! This research worry o.

Finally, did you know King James himself was Gay?

Well, we worship God, not the bible. The bible is a book but God's word is the living word.

The research continues
