SHHHH! While we listen to words of wisdom from a wise man.
Conscience is the light of the Soul that burns within the chambers of our psychological heart. It is as real as life is. It raises the voice in protest whenever anything is thought of or done contrary to the righteousness. Conscience is a form of truth that has been transferred through our genetic stock in the form of the knowledge of our own acts and feelings as right or wrong. A virtuous and courageous person can alone use the instrument of conscience. He or she can alone hear the inner voice of the soul clearly. In a wicked person this faculty is absent. The sensitive nature of his / her conscience has been destroyed by sin or corruption. Hence he or she is unable to discriminate right from wrong. Those who are leading organizations, business enterprises, institutions and governments should develop this virtue of the ability to use their own conscience. This wisdom of using the clean conscience will enable them to enjoy the freedom.
Dr APJ Kalam, President of India given during the inauguration of the seminar on “THE EFFECTS OF CORRUPTION ON GOOD GOVERNANCE AND HUMAN RIGHTS

Bill Maher: Better If Cheney Is Dead
Bill Maher has stirred outrage once again, this time saying it would be better if Vice President Dick Cheney was dead.
On his HBO show "Real Time," Maher and his guests were discussing the assassination attempt on Cheney last week, and the fact that the Huffington Post web site removed comments regarding readers' disappointment that Cheney had not been killed.
According to NewsBusters.org, the conversation went like this:
Maher: What about the people who got onto the Huffington Post – and these weren’t even the bloggers, these were just the comments section – who said they, they expressed regret that the attack on Dick Cheney failed.
Joe Scarborough: Right.
Maher: Now…
John Ridley: More than regret.
Maher: Well, what did they say?
Ridley: They said "We wish he would die.” I mean, it was hate language.
Barney Frank: They said the bomb was wasted. (laughter and applause)
Maher: That’s a funny joke. But, seriously, if this isn’t China, shouldn’t you be able to say that? Why did Arianna Huffington, my girlfriend, I love her, but why did she take that off right away?
Later, the panelists continued the discussion:
Ridley: It’s one thing to say you hate Dick Cheney, which applies to his politics. It’s another thing to say, "I’m sorry he didn’t die in an explosion." And I think, you know…
Maher: But you should be able to say it. And by the way...
Frank: Excuse me, Bill, but can I ask you a question? Do you decide what the topics are for this show?
Maher: Yeah, I decide the topics, they don’t go there.
Frank: But you exercise control over the show the way that she does over her blog.
Maher: But I have zero doubt that if Dick Cheney was not in power, people wouldn’t be dying needlessly tomorrow. (applause)
Scarborough: If someone on this panel said that they wished that Dick Cheney had been blown up, and you didn’t say…
Frank: I think he did.
Scarborough: Okay. Did you say…
Maher: No, no. I quoted that.
Frank: You don’t believe that?
Maher: I’m just saying if he did die, other people, more people would live. That’s a fact.
Despite Maher's outrageous comments, few in the media picked up the story -- although Ann Coulter's comment use of a gay slur in reference to former Sen. John Edwards received widespread attention.
Maher got in trouble once before with his televised comments. After the 9/11 attacks, Maher said on his ABC show "Politically Incorrect" that the hijackers were "warriors" and not "cowards."
Within months the show was canceled
With Cheney's Chief of Staff going down on four counts today, its clear that Cheney set a pattern to ignore and destroy any information that was contrary to his on the lead up to the war. A war where thousands of good Americans have died. A war where we claim terror is the enemy yet, we allow the Taliban back in Afgahnistan, and Al Queida training camps growing in other Mid East country sides, yet we still stay in Iraq. We stay after removing the dictator, after giving them free elections, after training in their government, after training in their army, we stay.
We also see that our supposed allies (Sunnis) are killing our troops more than those who line up with Iran (Shiites). Oh by the way, the government we installed is ran by Shiites- allies to the leadership of Iran.
So yes if Cheney were dead, or in jail, or working in the private sector, a lot more good Americans would be alive. It is a fact. Though, he probably would have still shot his friend in the face.
11:24, Whether your for the war or not, Mahers statements against the second highest official of our country is extremely stupid.
A question for you. Why do you believe we haven't been attacked sinced 911?
A thought, I think the City of Saint Paul would be better off if the Mayor and City Council were dead, or in the private sector someplace.
(The above statement is not meant to envoke hatred or safety issues for the Mayor or City Council.The statement above is merely a tool of provoking thought in the locally hate filled minds like Mahers)
We haven't been attacked since 9/11 is your response?
9/11 Commission appointed by this President found out that we shuldn't have been attacked on 9/11 in the first place! Direct information was ignored.
After Al Quieda attacked the World Trade Building 90 days into Bill Clinton' first term, he went on to get everyone of the 'sheiks' involved and we got them with the mastermind being locked up for 150 years right in federal pen down in Rochester. We were attacked, and we went after them and got them. Eight years of no more attacks on American soil followed (unless you want to count the Right wing homegrown terrorist who blew up the fed building in OKC).
By they way- what has Iraq to do with 9/11?
1. Afgahnistan is where Al Quieda and the Taliban ruled.
2. The suicide bombers were Arabs not Iraqis- not one of them from Iraq.
3. Sunnis not Shiites.
4. No connection to Iraq until we landed there, then they started coming across the borders.
Explain to me, 11:24, A-Democracy and other what you know of a connection between the two that every military, foreign policy expert, special investigative commission and even the President does not know?
