so some of you have probably heard the story from Sacramento about a ride called The Screamer. Well some neighbors of the ride don't like the screaming and had the parkput a no screaming policy on it...... so if you scream you get kicked off the ride. Now they want to try and get rid of the ride all together........ do you think the neighbors are right to do this?

I'm a natural skeptic and tend to question everything. I think growth and prosperity are best served by limited government, so I am a constant basher of government and the worthless politicians that steal the money of productive people to give to unproductive people. I have been called a cynic from time to time. All of that said, I do not believe for one second that the government had anything to do with 9-11 beyond it's shocking incompetence in performing its duty to protect the US and its citizens. These idiots from the lunatic left who further this nonsense are complete idiots, would you agree?

EBS=Emergency Broadcast System. You can't escape, the end times turmoil. That's when all hell breaks loose and everyone tries to save themselves. Some tv and/or radio station will be stupid enough to use the EBS. Betcha!
Betcha newspapers will cover the event for publication in the Heavenly Times. What do you think?

I hate Imus as much as the next guy because he's simply a douchebag, but for Al "Tawana Brawley" Sharpton to call for his resignation when he's never apologized to the police officers whose lives and careers he ruined is a complete joke. This race hustling pimp must think that with the passage of time people will just forget about his stunts.

With all the talk about what we are doing to the environment, are our leaders ever going to make us stop? It's obvious what we are doing is going to kill us, or our children, or maybe even our childrens' children. Oh whatever, nobody cares anyway.

I believe in Global Warming However It's not caused by CO2. I watched Al Gore's "The Inconvenient Truth" Afterwards I was falsely persuaded that it was cause by Humans. I did my own research and came across this documentary that basically counters everything Gore's movie says WITH scientific facts and credible sources. I felt really dumb that I believed Gore. I know some people are gonna bash me but before you do so then watch this documentary called "the great global warming swindle". or you can be stuborn and not watch it because your comfortable with popular belief and its hard to admit your wrong. But hey if you can give me something better than I'll admit I'm wrong.

heres the documentary : http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=4340135300469846467&q=Great+Global+Warming+Swindle&hl=en

I've been wanting to write my opinions on things but never wanted to identify myself. Every time I get the chance to write my local newspapers' editors, they want my real name and I don't want to give them that. Is there a way to be anonymous or keep my identity protected when writing an editorial or opinions on anything in public?

The US invaded Iraq without any real threat from Iraq, are the Iraqi people justified in attacking and destroying America just as America destroyed their nation? Would Iraqis be justified in killing 650,000 Americans and then calling it collateral damage? Would Iraqis be justified in attacking America in the future to find and destroy WMDs in America that could get in the wrong hands of say the KKK one day? What do you think?

Have the Right wing Christian Republican war loving bible thumping compassionate conservative radicals, from the media to the pundits to the politicians decieved Americans and used 911 as a fear and scare tactic to destroy our freedoms and use it as a means to control power? and ultimately have they destroyed America? Our moral standing in the world has never been lower than after the illegal invasion and desth and destruction of a soverign nation of Iraq with 650,000 dead Iraqi men, women and children.

"I am bound, you are bound, to everyone on this planet by a trail of six people"

-Stockard Channing, from the film 6 Degrees of Separation.

I'm a bit peeved that Osama Bin Laden and Ayman Al-Zawahiri are still on the loose. I was thinking (perhaps naively) we could test the "6 degrees" hypothesis on those guys.

So if you know someone who might know someone who might know where they're at, drop the name (and preferably an email) and then we're just 5 steps away.

I promise to share any reward in fair proportion to solid leads.

I know that there are many debates on whether Global Warming is actually real and caused by us humans. I have read so many articles about this subject and seen the tv shows that cover it. I just dont understand why we dont just take precautions...it can't hurt us! Why don't we just do it to be on the safe side?

After the UN did not authorize this latest Bush invasion of Iraq. Therefore every US soldier is a war criminal in Iraq and Bush can leggaly and technically be held responsible for war crimes, whether he can or cannot in reality is a different matter, but technically he can be.

Blackwater hires poor uneducated people from poor third world and Latin countries to use as bullet fodder in Iraq. They hire ex Israeli servicemen for secret missions in Iraq and work outside any US oversight and has a budget of many $ Billions in tax payer money, but with no accountability. 'Blackwater' the book is on New York Times Best seller list.

Im not a gloom and doomer, but the way people act nowadays toward others and their belief in Jesus Christ, could the world be heading toward the Anti-Christs government and ultimately destruction??

She has been completely out of control and I see on Yahoo news that Imus is being chatised and calls for the station that produced his show to punish him severely. I have not seen a mention anywhere about Rosie`s over the top rants.

Nancy Pelosi (quoting)
The funny thing is, I think we may have even had a more powerful impact with our message because of the attention that was called to our trip," she said. "It became clear to President Assad that even though we have our differences in the United States, there is no division between the president and the Congress and the Democrats on the message we wanted him to receive.
Reality.
27 Billion of pork adding on to the bill is NOT a message of troop support, its anything but.
again quoting
What others were saying and doing was many miles away, in a different time zone and had no impact on our trip except to call more attention to it," Pelosi said.
Reality...
Other people who have violated the logan act in the past surely have felt the same way, the actions were still illegal and DIck Cheney said it best...
"bad behavior" on her part to try to broker a deal between the two — a sensitive matter that would be considered the sole province of the executive branch.

In need of YOUR opinions on the UK MMR controversy for University report!

I am a second year student at the University of Glamorgan, Wales, UK. I am currently writing a report on the UK's MMR controversy which began in 1998. Whilst many undertones of the controversy have been resolved, controversial myths still remain. Many believe that the single 'combined' vaccine has led to cases of autism in young children, whilst others stand firm in the belief that the controversy was a case of public paranoia, often hyped by the media. The public play a crucial part in determining the way forward with our children's health. I WOULD LOVE TO HEAR WHAT THE GENERAL PUBLIC THINK! Please send me your opinions on the MMR controversy, wherever you stand on the issue, and if used in my report, all will remain anonymous and confidential (unless of course you would like me to credit you!) Thank you for your contribution and your time to answer this question.

Michael Chertoff, US homeland security dude, said clean skin Brits are a threat and are out there. But we kind of know who they are, so why can't we create a two-track passport and ID system?
