There are numerous nasty questions about his man. He was told he should stay in the US and be treated for TB, he chose to follow thru with his plans and get married. Then he gets a phone call saying, you have a rare and deadly form of TB stay there and get treatment. He freaked. He didn't want to be treated in a foreign country-he had no knowledge the CDC was coming to get him. So, he decided to save his own life and get home. You would have done the same. Which of you wants to be responsible when this man commits suicide????

Mrs. Cindy Sheehan, Iraq War protestor, said that Americans are more interested in the results of "American Idol" than on how many people are dying in the war. Why do you think is that? How come Americans protested so feverishly during Vietnam, but have been rather quiet this time around?

“the mainstream is more obsessed with the cost of a haircut than the cost of persistent childhood poverty to our society—estimated to be a $500 billion yearly loss to our economy. They show more interest in the expansion of a candidate’s living quarters than the expansion of wealth and income gaps, now record-breaking, between rich and poor in our country. It would be great—21 months after Hurricane Katrina put a global spotlight on American poverty—to see our national press corps and news networks devote as much energy to issues of race, class and poverty as to sniggering over one candidate’s personal wealth and alleged hypocrisy.” "Edwards is alone in convincingly criticizing corporate-drafted trade treaties and talking about workers’ rights and the poor and higher taxes on the rich."Jeff Cohen

Around March 17th Cynthia McKinney and thousands of other Americans protested in Washington and all over the country but the news was almost a complete blackout. The only mention I could find was a piece by AP News, And the wording was exactly the same in every newspaper and every website. How is it possible for one writer to have his version of the news published all over the globe and have people call it news??? Where were the independant reporters and journalists? I know it was written by one one hand because the wording was all the same, the only thing that changed was the headlines at the top. Who is this omnipotent news reporter and why dont we know his or her name?

Democrats are following an order by the House Appropriations Committee chairman to keep the bills free of such earmarks until it is too late for critics to effectively challenge them.

The House-Senate compromise bills due for final action in September cannot be amended and are subject to only one hour of debate, precluding challenges to individual projects.

Rep. David Obey insists he is reluctantly taking the step because Appropriations Committee members and staff have not had enough time to fully review the 36,000 earmark requests that have flooded the committee
What Obey is doing runs counter to new rules that Democrats promised would make such spending decisions more open.

1.) Isnt this the same tax and spend that hasnt worked since the Johnson administration and the first of the liberal economic cancer?
2.)How much more of this do WORKING americans have to put up with from Nancy P.?

A 9 year scientific study [discussed in a 2007 book] poses the epic battle between the 2 sides in an entirely new light and grounds - throwing it entirely open to full-scale debate ... a REAL debate!!!

Author, scientist-discoverer, Denis Towers, himself an anatomist and kinesiologist has discovered that snakes and humans are the precise antithesis of one another - both, applied anatomically and behaviorally.

The conclusion drawn over this study is that this fact, of itself, expresses 'deliberation of design' and is just not possible over all the potential genetic random mutations via the theory of evolution ... that is, if we were to believe evolution!!

The other conclusion drawn by those involved is that this Breakthrough discovery in the debate tends to strongly support the Biblical Adam & Eve account, which involved the snake [its body assumed by Satan] setting Man in opposition to God.
God cursed the snake in a manner to make it opposite man in all things!!

Yes, Dr. Death is a free man. Our wonderful system of government here in Michigan is working well. And then there's the extra added value of the local news reporters trying to put the next feather in their cap by getting in his face. I have my opinions of his past deeds, but yesterday he looked very tired. Perhaps some compassion is warranted even though I am thouroughly against what he stands for. (killed 'em in the back of a van for chrissake!)
Opinions? Bring it on...

Is Palestine truly the home of the Eastern-European Jews? (keep in mind that research shows that these people are not related to the Jews who lived in Palestine before 1948). Should the Palestinians accept the situation and be absorbed by neighboring Arab countries? Should Europe have aided the Jews in their immigration into Palestine? Should the USA be aiding either side?

I'd love to hear BOTH sides of the argument, because i come from a Palestinian, Lebanese, and Iraqi family. I am an american however :).

I asked who China ever invaded besides Tibet (which was 50 years ago BTW).

According to some of you history geniuses China invaded India, Vietnam, Mongolia, Laos, Cambodia, Korea.

Well I guess the Chinese Communist world domination military menace got stopped in their tracks by every one of these pathetic 3rd world countries. As far as I know they are all independent sovereign nations.

Fact is the India and Vietnam "invasions" were ancient border disputes, especially India. They never invaded Laos or Cambodia at all. North Korea about to be conquered by USA's counter invasion of their own invasion of the South (not China's invasion) welcomed China into the Korean War. They did not invade. Mongolia? Jeeeezus...you people!!

As for Taiwan, China could have destroyed them years ago and the USA could do nothing about it. They are no interested in invading Taiwan. They will assimilate them.China is becoming far more capitalist these days. Dictatorship spells its own doom.

The way the borders are now, Palestine is over. Gaza Strip is in ruins. There is nothing there. West Bank has been taken over by Israel. All the best land in West Bank is in Israeli control.The Israelis have built walls and settlements there. The Palestines in the West Bank are all divided by these walls so that there are really 3 main Palestinian camps. And walls within those walls. Palestinians in the West Bank are all separated, they can't even move about. In the West Bank, Israelis roam more freely than the Palestinians, it's basically all Israeli controlled.

It's over. Someone get those people out of there, it's the least the UN could do. What are they waiting for?

My hometown of Galesburg, IL has made national news recently after 5 students from the Galesburg High School class of 2007 were denied their diplomas. This is supposedly to curb rowdy and inappropriate behavior at the ceremony.

Read the story and whats your opinion on the subject? Think about how you would feel...
