Politics & Government - 12 July 2006

Can you look at a question I asked earlier and explain to me the difference between what I said in it and the talking point "you can not support the troops if you don't support president".
Not sure if I see much of one, they both seem just as stupid..

here's the link..

Why is Congress spending its time and effort passing anti flag burning laws and regulating online gambling?

When it should be dealing with the impending bankruptcy of Social Security and Medicare, when it should be worried about illegal immigrants, when it should be dealing with the brain drain and export of American jobs overseas, when we've become embroiled in overseas wars that have destabilized parts of the world and appear to have no end and we are running up huge deficits? Given these big issues why is flag burning and online gambling of national importance?

IF Cubans are free when they hit soil, why did we send back the little boy from Florida?

I don't really remember if they caught him on water or land. It just seems we went to a lot of trouble (and tax dollars) to send one little kid home.

Republicans, why don't you just come out and freaking SAY IT??

Over the past few years, all I have heard is stuff like,
"let's just nuke em."
"Let's drop some more bombs"
Now it's
"let's go bomb Iran"
"Let's nuke N.Korea first"
"Let's assassinate Kim Jong."
"Bomb em all AND BE DONE WITH IT!"

Why don't you just come out and say what you really want!!!

WORLD DOMINATION
WORLD CONTROL
DOMINATE ANY COUNTRY WHO OPPOSES US.

At least if you say it we know where each other stands.

do you think or KNOW that ppl r manipulated & that even this may be a ways to find out who is everybody and wh

and what is everybody thinking and say. I find it hard to believe tht even Ask The Planet(sorry) is for some good purpose of us all online. More like the goverment may be behind overseeing how people are like, where and what not. NO Im not paranoid. I know what I m saying. I think even through yahoo, which does protect our rights as freedom of speech but is restrained by gov laws etc, expresses to each of us what are the ways not to expres or say the wrong thing, because we are all watched. Thats THE MAIN POINT, WE ARE BEING WATCHED. So what do you think is goint to happen or do youthink they are spying on answers and radicalism or jsut flame fury that can get confused with radicalism. Or maybe now once a person falls on the wrong hands in gov that person is scrwed on a lot if not all. It happeSo based on this, and yr own experiences, what do you think is really happening that the goverment is turnint to (dictators, fascists, or) or do you see a glimpse of good future somehwere and how

Do you support the troops? Even if you don't support the pres?

I'm sick of all you benchwarmers sitting back here accusing everyone of not supporting the troops..
The answer to my question is no!! Even if you say you support both it's still no!!
The only way you can support the troops is by being one!! That's it!! It's over!! Anyone who has not been to Iraq is an unpatriotic traitor! So kick rocks and stop yer complaining about eachother.

Does anyone know?

This is a serious question. If you don't have an answer, don't bother please.
My fiancee is in Peru. Last year we were going to get married here in the United States until his obnoxious EX WIFE started problems. She is now demanding child support for their child who is now 7 . She never asked for it before. NOW she is wanting it.
My fiancee cannot leave PERU until this is cleared up.
Does anyone know of a way we can get around this to where he can pay the little rip, but still come here to the USA so we can get married?

Are you a coward?

Here's an easy test:
1) Did you support the Iraq War but did not sign up?
2) Did you support the Iraq War, not sign up and then call people who opposed the war, "terrorist supporters, anti-American, etc.?"
3)Do you now support war with Iran/North Korea but are nowhere close to signing up for the military?
4)Do you often wish the U.S. would drop another atomic/nuclear bomb on someone (and not caring about the hundreds of thousands or millions who would die and/or be injured) yet squeal when 3,000 Americans die?

Bonus Points if you:
(A)can name the war-loving vice-president who got 5 deferments, in order to avoid going to Vietnam.
(B)can name the war-loving president whose father got him into the National Guard in order to avoid Vietnam, and even then the son couldn't finish that.

Aw, hell. It's Cheney and Bush.

Yes to any or all of the above questions makes you a coward.

I caught the tail end of a news broadcast, is the middle east poised to go to war?

I have no facts on this, but if we find out that Bush's bully tactics of egging on countries is a direct component of all the danger there, would you be upset with King George IV of America?

And is this happening?
