He lied about Iraq. No Question there. Iraq was never a threat, never supported Al Qaida, no WMD's no matter where Powell sent Blix to look.

Tax Cuts for the rich. Lower wages for most Americans.

Secret energy task force, now gas has doubled in price.
No solution to the problem of outsoucing.
No re-eduation of our workforce.
No Child Left Behind underfunded.
Doesn't understand the need for Church and State seperation.
No real effort on Health Insurance (thanks Arnold).
Osama is Free!
Terrorism and hatred of America up, thanks solely to Bush.

That's the short list. Of course he was AWOL, never showed up for his physical while in the Guard.

He makes Clinton look like the Best Ever. Bush has been incompetent on every level from losing the "War on Terror" to his Social Security debacle.

Why does the corporate owned media still protect this guy and his failed policies?

What redeeming features does this presidency have?

Apparently an unfounded accusation by a woman known to "cry wolf" is all that Ms Holloway needs to convict these young men and all but destroy their lives.

This exposes the rabble that are the PC brigade they orchestrate a campaign against an individual who is pretty irrelvant in the bigger scheme of things. So a nasty racist attack reminiscint of the Steven Lawrence attack happens in Swindon except this time the victim is white, yet we dont here a peep from the PC brigade as they are incapable of understantding or blatantly erase it from their minds so it happens in a parallel universe.This exposes the flaw in their masterplan they are basically the left wing eqiuvalent of the bnp yet they operate under the cloak and dagger of moral superiority using the PC charter to uphold their fooked up logic that they and they alone are judge and jury.

I never thought the Iraq invasion was a good idea, and I know a lot of Americans feel the same way.. but that being said, I have nothing but the utmost respect for people who chose to serve their country.

So partisan politics aside - assuming you object to the war - how do YOU support your troops, and if you haven't been - don't you think its time you did?


BTW: I'm Canadian - and haven't visited the States since the Iraq invasion.

The stations in the Raliegh/Durham market is very confusing because you don't know who or where the DJ is coming from .
The DJ could be in California but he is doing the afternoon slot for Raliegh and other cities ?

1/12/07 - ST. PAUL, MN) - A school bus driver let Rachel Armstrong's three children board the bus Monday morning, but he warned them that he wouldn't give them a ride home that afternoon, nor could they ever ride his route again.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The problem, according to Armstrong: her 10-year-old twin girls and 8-year-old son speak English. She says school administrators told her the route had been designated for non-English speakers only.

Armstrong says she had to leave work early on Wednesday to pick up her stranded kids from Phalen Lake Elementary School.
Is this fare?

In early 1942 California anti-aircraft guns blasted the sky trying to knock down UFO's that thousands of people saw. The US was worried about invasion from the Japaneese after Pearl Harbor, so a lot of people were looking for enemy planes.
In July/Aug of 52 President Truman was concerned because of UFO being spotted over the Capital for days. These were seen by Radar and both ground and air observers. At one point they surrounded a plane. This should be in the school History books, don't you think? Source, Newspaper and the....

What is this...a major PR stunt?

Madonna wants us to adopt more babies from Africa...Oprah gave up on inner city youth(and opened a school where "whites are not welcome"). I say Oprah has enough of her OWN issues needing to have her stomach stapled so she could "control" herself to eat right instead of addressing the real problem, just like she dissed inner city youth(who claimed IPODs were what they "needed")

If as a nation, we can't take care of our own people...homeless(lot's of vet's too who put their hide on the line for this country), what use is it to find the path of least resistence(and the biggest hoopla in the media). The worlds BIGGEST problem is expotential population growth...we are our own worst enemy.

None of these people provide ANY moral compass how one should live their life.
When giving, you don't and should not be trumpeting what you are doing...God knows your intentions.

Can you believe people will actually kill their own newborn babies!!????!!! I would sooner support Bush to invade India to save new born babies than stay in Iraq!

Seems to me that it was more of just vandalism from a small band of disenfranchised radicals in greece, and has nothing at all to do with everthing else that we're calling 'terrorism' in the world today.

As an American, I do not feel safe. I can think of three good ways that a terrorist could hit us. Do you think that this could happen?

A terrorist uses an EMP. If you hook two inductors up in a parallel circuit, with a large power supply, two resisitors, a switch, the inductors will work against each other and either fry out, or it may create a Electrical Magnetic Pulse, able to disable computers and power grids.

The terrorist go to the Berkeley hills with supersoakers full of gasoline on a hot summer day, and create another horrible firestore, like the one in 91, something I lived through.

The terrorists gather a bunch of people and have them randomly hit people on the streets in a coordinated attack, like the SF rampage last year.

I dont know guys, should I be worried?
