Best Song Lyrics

Simply quote the best lyrics you have ever heard in a song. The song itself didn't necessarily have to be great, as long as you liked the message the lyrics sent out. For me:

"You'll be sorry that you messed with, the U. S. of A
'Cause we'll put a boot in your a$$ it's the American way"

IF FORUMS PERSON of the century

I'm sure many of you are familiar with Time's man of the year. Since 1927, they have named the person they believed has made the most change, for better or worse, in the world during that year. Previous winners have been Ghandi, FDR, Lindberg, the Computer, Hitler, Stalin, JFK, etc.

I was clicking around the site and noticed they have a person of the century there. I wanted to see what y'all thought, preferably without going to that site, about what the person, people, or thing was that made the most change, for better or worse, over the 20th century and see y'all's ideas. Please note, the 20th Century ended Dec 31, 1999 at 11:59.999999999999999999..... so Obama cannot be nominated (nor Bush, anything to do with Iraq, 911, Afghanistan, etc.) Please thing back through your history classes you younger folk, and not just in your lifetimes.

Personally, I would probably have to go with Henry Ford, mainly for making the automobile, which has changed the way we live, from where we live to how our armies fight, affordable to the common man.


But let's here y'alls reasons with a short explanation.

Auto Bailout

What do you think? Should the government use taxpayer money to bailout these companies? Chrysler has already been bailed out. Ford has a chance of weathering all this without government money.

Aren't their competitors, who are well-known for producing high-quality cars for the same price, more fit then to exist?

Wouldn't the failure of Detroit simply result in the expansion of these other companies, and thus consumers get better products?

If people don't want to buy what they're selling, why should the government bail them out?

Shouldn't the union give in to some of its regulations first to ensure that the people actually have their jobs instead of losing everything?

Just some of my thoughts, what about y'alls?

Palin effigy

In the past, people have been charged (and convicted) with hate crimes for hanging effigies of minorities or any other group that has been highly discriminated against being hung. Some kids have been charged with hate crimes for simply hanging up nooses, with no effigies whatsoever. So now, why should these two get off for hanging one of Palin? It is sheer hypocrisy at all levels (and I would be willing to wager that Democrats were more abject to the prior hate crimes than republicans).

Katrina Pregnant

...... but doesn't anyone realize that Katrina was locked inside Helgrind for at least 2 months. And if I recall from being around some pregnant women recently, they were guessably pregnant around that time. Roran maried her to save her honor, but if a child is born 7 months into marriage, it's kinda 9-7=2 to figure out. So, if she doesn't appear to be 2 months pregnant, how is she pregnant?
