Current Events - February 2007

I am white but if I were black I think I would have been deeply offended that they made it seem as if something spectacular happened because two black coaches were coaching the super bowl. There are plenty of succesful and extremley wealthy black people and have been for quite a number of years. Just look at Oprah, she is worth at least a billion. What is the big deal. If you are black and you saw that commercial did it offend you?

Some bright moron decided fining Turner Broadcasting instead of jailing them was a good idea. Now take a guess at who is gonna fork the 2 million in the long run. It's not like my cable bill isn't enough already. Thanks to these idiots I am sure it will be higher soon. How many people think jail time is a way better detterent than fines?

I'm an 8th grader and I am trying to get rid of styrofoam in my school district. I'm giving a presentation to someone, I think he's a member of the school board. Anyway, that's on Wednesday and I'm totally freaked out. I have most of my powerpoint and research done. I just need an ending...alternatives that the district could actually use. The district is sending this guy over to listen to my presentation, but they really don't plan on taking it any further. They say students come to them all the time saying "We need to do this, and get rid of this!" but never go into alternatives, or ways to change it. That's what I really need! I'm working with one of my old teachers, but I need your help too, because I can't find anything. Well, I've found one thing, Eco-Foam. And I think my teacher found some other things, but I need more.

I REALLY need websites that have prices listed, and ways to contact them! (obviously it's going to be bought in bulk.)

President Bush just unveiled a $2.9 trillion spending plan to murder more people in Iraq. Has he not sufficiently run this country deep enough into debt ??? What IS the present state of National debt in America ? Should it not be the first priority to crerate environmentally-freindly jobs, and feed and shelter the homeless in America ? Would those billions not be better spent cleaning up all the pollution created by criminal industrialists funded by Bush, pig farmers, etc...and be used to grow organic vegetables, grains, beans, etc.... isn't it more intelligent to spend those trillions to educate people to depend LESS upon an oil-based economy through self-sufficient living ? How did we allow a criminal to get elected, and why are we still allowing him to create a hell on earth ???!!! If we don't do something about him, are we also not guilty of indirectly participating in his atrocities ? Is he and Cheney not the greatest crminals in America at this moment ?

A soldier will die and it's played up that it's such a bad thing that they died. They are sent to war to a place that people die all the time, of course there is going to be casualties. Its war.... people are going to die....

It is really sad when one of your own dies, and i've had friends over there and its scary thinking about where they are.... But why is everyone so surprised when there are casualties?

Ken is apparently supporting radical Islamists who want to build a 70,000 seater mega mosque in East London next to the Olympic site. Isn't this a sign of incredible naivety?

Of course not...Then why would any of you vote for Hillary ? Remember, Bush is out of the picture....You are not voting against Bush by voting for Hillary... The Republicans are looking rather "unconservative" this election year. Why wouldn`t you vote for one of them, or a member of another party? You don`t want socialism and you know it...or do you ?...Think about it. America is great for a reason.

Okay - I'll be honest I don't see the problem, our school district had a long list of vaccinations like measles - before any of our children could start school. Now my children are out of school.

Also our daughter had to pay for her vaccination, which being over 18, it was her choice to have. I believe if offered years ago, I would of wanted my child vaccinated against this form of cancer. Can someone tell me why they wouldn't want it? I am open and honest and really want to understand?

Are the objections about the vaccine realistic or just political hype ? There are currently many diseases a child must be vaccinated against to even attend school - how is this different? The Governor of Texas made it mandatory to be vaccinated for human papillomavirus that cause most cases of cervical cancer. Governor Perry also directed state health authorities to make the vaccine available free to girls 9 to 18 who are uninsured or whose insurance does not cover vaccines.

This is a very hot topic right now, but let's put some sense into it.
The earth is not a static environment, it is constantly changing, drought, severe weather, & natural disasters are part of our ecology.
10,000 years ago there was a sheet of ice across most of North America, how exactly did that melt?
The earth is billions of years old, accurate recording of temperature has only been around for a few centuries at the most.
In the 1960's it was a consensus that the ice caps were expanding, in the 1990's the hole in the ozone was going to give us all skin cancer. What happened there?
Scientists like everyone else need a job, governments fund their research. Wasn't there undeniable proof that Iraq had weapons of mass destruction?
Finally, who is going to pay for the infrastructure & bureaucracy to combat "climate change" I doubt it will be Exxon Mobil or Wal-Mart. Consumers (like you & me) will shoulder that financial burden.
Need I say more........?
