Iraq? Immigration? Health care? Was the split present before Bush was elected president? Or do you even see a split? My vote is the war in Iraq. What do you think? (No party bashing please! I don't want to see answers like, "Because the democrats whine too much and they don't have a plan," or "Because the republicans are liars and crooks." They won't even be in the running for a good answer.)

I've got dibs on Japan. I've always been impressed by Japan's special forces and even there Regular Infantry. Missles aside a full battle, without the issue of nuclear war.

Evrything that seems to happen, wat with the war n all that seems just to perfect. the goverment creates a false sense of threat, how many times hav u read "New alqueda video released...new attack imminant" it creates a sense of danger among us and therfore we think wat eva the goverment does is gud to "protect" us. really, if they were going to protect, with all the money at disposal, then why wud london get hit?how did the all powerful and inteligent systems fail? a year afta the london attacks...a day before the anniversary they "find" a video of one of the bombers warning of more deadly attacks. perfect timing to enduce more fears dnt u think? and then the very nex day afta the video is aired...goverment announce more troops goin to afghanistan.hmm so they build up fear n then tel us they gna send more ppl to die so we think they r "protecting" us. im sorry if i have offended any1,this is jus my opinion and am very interested if any shares my views on this world wide corruption

This question is only open to Americans who think that United States is without a doubt the greatest country in the world. I wanna know, if you are so sure that The U.S. is the greatest country without a doubt, then what is the second and give me as many reasons as you can.
Also, answer this question without referring to America in any way, it really isn’t necessary, i just want to understand what the qualities are you are looking for.
Remember, if you mention the United States then you have no chance of getting best answer.
Cheers

I think Bush is the closest thing to Gandhi today. He is risking his presidency and his personal wealth to save the Iraqis and Afganis. I think its very nobel and very kind of him to do so. I cant believe that the french criticize the Americans for thier humanitarian mission in iraq and afganisthan.

I believe Reagan is the greatest humanitarian of all time. He has liberated people from eastern europe to latin america. He also helped weaking communism world wide. Reagan also helped spent alot of time helping trying to fund money for curing diseases. I think Reagan is the smartest and the most nobel person in the history of mankind. As well as an unbelievablly great president.

The gap between the old and the young will be huge in China because they're allowed to have just one child. So in the future, they'll have lots of old people and a few young ones.
It's quite simple.
Don't you think?

Are the so-called "authorities" abusing their power by this means of denying us these basic civil / human Rights?

Is it correct or even lawful that an appeal is heard in the self-same court by the self-same magistrates that caused it?

My parents, as also my grandparents served as british "cannonnen fodder", in british uniform throughout the 1914-18, as also the 1938-45 conflict.

Why am I, also a brtish national / citizen, now denied, by law, any form of legal justice, as also the Right to Work as per:

Human Rights Act,
10/12/1948,
Geneva,
Article 6.

Do they call this democratic law enforcement, if so , how & why?

It has cost the taxpayers £175K / annum to keep me idle for the
past 5 yrs. I receive only a mere £3,300 / annum of this. They also refuse me rent / polltax rebate

This leaves me £1600 below the tax / breadline threshold of £4,900, itself only 25% of the national average.

Do they wish me to learn some form of crime as a trade, possibly contempt??

I love the knockabout Punch and Judy style antics on this site between the Libs and the 'Pubs. So much vitriol! It's great. So, if it came to the crunch, and both sides squared off against the other, who would win?
