"The world of today has achieved much, but for all its declared love for humanity, it has based itself far more on hatred and violence than on the virtues that make one human. War is the negation of truth and humanity. War may be unavoidable sometimes, but its progeny are terrible to contemplate. Not mere killing, for man must die, but the deliberate and persistent propagation of hatred and falsehood, which gradually become the normal habits of the people. It is dangerous and harmful to be guided in our life's course by hatreds and aversions, for they are wasteful of energy and limit and twist the mind and prevent it from perceiving truth."

– Jawaharlal Nehru, First Prime Minister Of India (Born November 14, 1889)

I think I agree with Bill Maher here for the most part… it is rather ridiculous to me that Americans seemingly rejected the new Sun Chips biodegradable bag because it was "too loud"! I mean, what is more important, the environment or being able to eat chips out of a bag silently? I can understand maybe in a movie theater or live play, but in those situations you could just use another container as Mr. Maher so eloquently points out in his closing monologue….

I can hardly believe even Beck would stoop so low as to accuse a Holocaust survivor of being a traitor to his own people & somehow responsible for the deaths of other Jews in concentration camps. Has Beck no sense of common decency & perspective on the situation. Does he honestly think people will not care that he took slander further than all but the most rabid of supporters could accept? Or is this all just a ploy to get more attention? Perhaps it is best not to delve into the motivations of Beck, but the fact still remains that he is a paid commentator on a national "news" network….
