Bush providing one instead of ignoring what he is saying and bring the troops home like the Democrats and the rest of America want?

Bush knows better than our Military Commanders now??

Isn't this is what got us into this mess to begin with?

Anyone who people who have their own airplanes, must drive hybrid or biodiesel cars.

Airplanes are the worst polluters of all transportation. Therefore, people who have personal airplanes should compensate for that by driving only green ground vehicles.

Anyone who supports global warming reduction efforts against this?

I wrote the following story for a website. Several people accused me of "mis-statements" and "inaccuracies" but they can't point it out. Can you? I would appreciate the help. Go to:

It has been a problem for so many years adults tend to think of bulling as a "norm" and acceptable part of growing up. That all began to change after Columbine or did it? We are all more aware but what can we do to really make a difference and stop the bullies before someone kills them to stop them? What can we do - how do we help victims feel there is a better way out than the desperate acts we have been reading and hearing about?

Some of you may have seen my handle and avatar being used to post an offensive unfunny video mocking the Virginia Tech tragedy. This is not me but some sicko who pretended to be the father of one of the victims at first posting the same video in questions and answers in a number of categories - ie spamming. I called him out on several of his threads to warn people not to fall for his scam and now he's imitating me posting the same crap. He's an immature twisted little sicko and I don't know why Yahoo hasn't banned his butt for spamming and turned over his ISP to the cops.

What to do? I've got this schizo sicko using my handle name and avatar posting this crap plus he's posting abusive comments on my Youtube videos.

He's been posting here as samurai_dave, ronindave (my youtube handle), bignastytruckdriver, father_in_mourning, and hotdogvendor and god knows what else.

What can be done about this? Has he pushed things too far to warrant investigation into his sanity?

I think that the media is biased in their coverage, and in return it weighs on viewers sympathy towards the value of life, depending on nationality.

Does Virginia have a obesity epidemic? I watched the shooting unfold and as the images came through my tv I could only see obese Americans all over the place, obese cops helping students, gluttonous students looking on etc.. Why is America so full of gluttons?

To our American cousins. I understand you are concerned about your freedom, your rights.
But don´t you think stricter gun control laws might be the way to go.
For example, this weeks Economist suggested :
"child-proof locks",
"system of registration for guns and gun-owners"
"wider blacklist of those ineligible to buy them"
And hey, enough with the cheap jokes about our terrible teeth!

I have heard most of them. I don't believe in it much, mainly because I just can't fathom that much evil. But I have to say that some aspects of what happened look suspicious. Just curious to hear what other people think.

Explain the hypocrisy please. There is clearly so much racism masked as comedy that comes from Coulter's mouth, and she isn't muzzled? Please don't tell me it's because she doesn't have a radio show. She is invited onto every major news network, invited to speak at colleges around the country, she is a very public and influential figure who has said some very offensive things, things that go way beyond what Imus said..
I just don't understand why we are supposed to accept some bigots, racists, homophobes, extremists (Mike Savage? Rush Limbaugh? Sean Hannity? Rosie o' Donnell? please!) but not others. This is a loaded question, but I don't care I feel like an injustice has been done. Take Imus away, but take these other loons out too.

I've been reading stories about the disappearance of whole bee colonies in 24 states and Europe. Seems there's a massive extinction going on very rapidly and no one knows what's causing it.

http://news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2007/02/070223-bees.html here is a link

I wonder how long civilization would survive if the Bee really did go extinct all of a sudden. Bee's are responsibIe for almost all the worlds food supplies. I know other insects also pollinate, but Bees do more than all the other insects combined.

Please don't give the Einstein quote, it's not a real quote.

This question is for those of you who like to make those all encompassing statements. You know what I'm talking about, statements such as, "All Americans are stupid," or "Those Americans all love their guns." Why do you insist on broadly implicating 300 million United States citizens? Don't you realize how diverse the United States really is? Do you know how broad the range of political thought is? I really don't have a problem with people who disagree with the policies of our government, and I understand people may not care for certain aspects of our culture, but I do take issue with those of you who wholly dismiss my country as a collection of 300 million simpletons. For those of you with this mindset, can you please tell me why you feel this way? Before you answer, remember I'm not gearing this question to those of you who have an issue with our foreign policy (because a lot of Americans do too), but instead to those who seem to think there isn't a single good American.
