in the footage from the cctv that shows an explosion at the pentagon. why is it the we never see even the slightest portion of the plane in any frames? surely if something this large hit the pentagon then we would see something even if it is time lapse, after all we see the explosion but nooooooooo plane. if this film is the evidence then the conspiracy theory sould be that a plane did hit the pentagon not that a plane didnt hit it!!!

Any one read that Big Guys tripe about Mit Romney? I'm not a Mormon and generaly I think their denomination is a crock. But to spread outright lies the way this guy is doing should be illegal! He is trying to imply that all Mormons, which includes Mit Romney, are child molesters. Then all those idiots that don't know a Mormon from a meercat chime in and agree with him. Dang! When you turn your computer on , just glance at the Yahoo news before you start reading the claptrap on here.

I've read in many forums that Mitt Romney has been attending meetings in a Mormon temple. I don't know if this is true or if it's just a smear tactic from the left because the leader of the Mormon church was just arrested. Warren Jeffs of the Mormons (FLDS) is accused of statutory rape. Jeffs to the Mormons is a prophet and God's only representative on Earth. Hmm, looks like they haven't changed since the Joseph Smith days. I wonder if this will disqualify Romney from the election?

I saw this on Anderson Cooper on CNN. He is exposing the Mormons and their leader, Warren Jeffs.

story to forestall libreal whine...
http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20070609/ap_on_re_us/cindy_sheehan_land
quoting.
Sheehan, who announced on Memorial Day that she was stepping down as the face of the anti-war movement, will sell the 5-acre site in Crawford for $87,000
quote 2
"But Cindy does not plan to have a continued presence there."
quote 3
Sheehan had said she would not willingly sell to Move America Forward, an organization that supports the U.S. intervention in Iraq, which wanted to buy the land to erect a monument
quote 4.
A telephone message left Friday as not immediately returned.
quote 5
she bought the property last year for $52,500,
1.) As Nancy Pelosi was more concerned with installing millions in pork to the iraqi bill and Cindy is selling to a group totally opposite her beliefs isnt the money really dictating BOTH OF THEM"?
2.) Doesnt this truly define classic Pelosi hypocritical liberalism?
3.)Does anyone think Sheehan will return the call? Fat chance!!!

In your opinion, do you believe that Paris Hilton going back to prison will hurt her career and reputation? Who or why not?

I do not believe that Paris Hilton's career will not be ruined because when celeberties get arrested and go to prison, it does not have any major impact on their career and reputation but when the Average American citizen does what Hilton did, it can damage their reputation and their career because they could lose their job as a result.

It seems as if much of the emphasis on providing funds for research or to help less fortunate countries is always on AIDS.

Why don't we governments or individuals talk about curing or fighting malaria, sanitation-caused illnesses, cancer, heart disease, kidney disease or other health issues that kill just as many people or more than AIDS does.

It there a political agenda behind fighting AIDS?

He's a major activist when it comes to spending government (i.e. taxpayer) money on worthy causes such as AIDS in Africa. Yet this filthy rich guy moves his business from the UK to Holland specifically to avoid paying taxes.

It's easy to advocate spending someone else's money. Does anyone know if Bono actually reaches into his own pocket to help others? I have the impression that he doesn't.

“China is now Communist in name only after three decades of market reforms which along with breakneck growth have brought income disparities, widespread corruption and an ideological vacuum.” BEIJING (Reuters) May 17, 2007.

That paragraph stunned me the first time I read it, for the first time in the west I have seen a major news organization, Reuters, accurately say that China is Communist in name only, something I have been saying since my first visit here.

Where I take exception to the paragraph is the tone and the impression it gives. By saying things like, “breakneck growth have brought income disparities,” while not pointing out we have roughly the same disparity, “widespread corruption,” without point out corruption has been a huge problem in China since the beginning of time while giving the impression it is a new phenomenon all while ignoring that China is currently taking huge steps problem in China since the beginning of time while ---------------(more)

Is it because of Y2K and people giving more money to companies that was needed? Is that why nobody trusts a company that asks for money anymore?

The little girl Maddy who has gone missing recently may have caused a big stir in the news. The other night I noticed several celebrities wearing these yellow ribbons as an expression of supporting Maddy & her family. I was angry, firstly because children go missing all the time & they never get any support from the public through special ribbon bearing by celebrities etc. so why should this one incident be so special? it happens all the time, more should be done to support the other families- just because they don't go ostentatiously public about their bereavement doesn't mean they shouldn't have the same support as Maddy's family- these ribbons don't seem to help much in the way of charity anyway, which brings me to my second point-
the rubber wrist bands "make poverty history" etc.
as soon as the shops had realised there was a new bandwagon to be made on the back of our "I'm so caring!" (*said in a sarcastic manner*) society, they started shipping out crap at the expense of charity.

Here is a statement that was made about Barack Obama:

--"The Rev. Robert Abbott, pastor of the Holy Trinity Baptist Church in Amityville, N.Y., said Obama connects with black audiences because of the preacher's style he uses when addressing them."--

What does Mr. Abbot mean by this? What is the "preacher's style"? Whatever it is, isn't Mr. Abbot using a stereotype of black audiences? Are black people supposed to be more likely than any other group to respond favorably to a "preacher's style"?

According to the 14 th Amendment Section 3 of the U.S. Constitution which is supposed to be the supreme law of this land; Bush and Cheney are forbidden from holding the offices of President and Vice President based on their participation in an act of Insurrection against America because they did so after taking an oath to defend the Constitution and while they were federal officials.

If you don't believe Cheney, Bush, Rumsfeld, Wolfowitz, Bolton, Silverstein, Guiliani, Pataki, and others did 9/11; it is only because you do not remember the facts, aren't paying attention or, you are totally in denial. The good news is that denial is an early phase and will soon wear off. The bad news is you may be the personal property of Bush or Cheney before it does.

A little while ago a women came in the police & said that her daughters father had broken into her house, took her 3 year old child & her childs passport & vanished, the women even had a convincing black eye. The police investigated the case, couldn't track down the father & in the end the case was put on file. A few years pass & whilst dragging the river for a body the police find a suitcase. Inside was a body of a young girl, turns out it was the missing girl from the suspected father abduction case. The mother confesses that she & her current boyfriend got too carried away sexually abusing the girl & accidently killed her & her father had nothing to do with an abduction or killing. The father was later found abroad & evidence had shown he had not entered the country for years.
The point of this morbid story is if a woman can do this to her own child why couldn't the Mc Canns? They may have gotten drunk & carried away & accidently killed Maddie. Then hid the body & made up a story.

2,500 independant scientists say global warming is here and now and we have to act today.
USA's voted President says we will take a look at the problem tomorrow.
So, whilst in Britain and other countries it is an offence to put
the wrong stuff in the wrong bin, America plods happily on with a committment to start doing something 'tomorrow'.

Does he just not care. Or does he not believe the scientific
evidence. Or is he more interested in the economic state of
the United States of America.

Tony Blair, Prime Minister UK, with his dying words in office, has committed the UK to doing their best to help the situation,
and for once the country are behind him.

Why does the USA act completely indifferently in a matter
which will affect their children and grandchildren and the rest
of the world?

What could be the actual reasoning which prompted Sonia to choose Shivraj Patil above all else despite his sad performance in Elections and in office, & Sharad pawar's fierce opposition ? Will patil continue his servile attitude to her even if & when he is elected as President? Is it good for India ?
