Politics & Government - 19 July 2006

Hypothetical question. Pretty simple, yes or no, but if you want to add an explanation, go ahead.

2 part question:

Mike and Joe are both ditch diggers.

Mike makes it to work on time every day, and leaves at quitting time everyday. Mike works really hard, and takes pride in his work.

Joe usually strolls in a little late. He does as little work as he can. He's usually pretty lazy, always looking for a reason to stop digging. He watches the clock constantly, and usually leaves a few minutes early.

Question 1: Do Mike and Joe both deserve the same pay rate?

Question 2: If Mike has worked for the company 5 years, and Joe has worked for the company 6 years, who should get the promotion?

I.E. Certain Policies of his you agree or disagree with. I don't want to hear from idiots who watch 'The Daily Show', think they know ALL ABOUT George W. Bush based on the simple learnings of a ridiculous half hour comedy show, and decide to hate GWB based on little or no actual factual information. Shame on you.

Leo(nard)o (DiC)aprio should keep their mouths shut when it comes to most things but always when it involves politics.

Do you believe generosity should be forced upon someone, or do you think it should be an individuals choice to give what they earn?

It would eliminate the risk of Iran or North Korea being able to hit the U.S. with nuclear ballistic missles.

Of course there's going to be a tiny wackjob minority that will be against it, and I think everyone else could use a good laugh, so please explain your reasoning.

...no matter what language you pray in, your faith, or what side of the Lebanon/Israeli conflict you might support, or if you wish to address a different conflict in the world.

Here is mine:

Our Father in Heaven, please take care of your precious children, and help us to put aside our grievances, put aside our greed, forgive each other, and act in love and wisdom, the way you have taught us to. In the name of your Son, Jesus. Amen.

Why can't they educate themselves, read more, find the truth and realize that Faux news is nothing but hate-mongering, and is financed by a Clinton-hater who founded the network mostly to have a vent for his venom and vitriol? Why can't anti-Dems and -Libs understand that the real reason they hate us is they envy us? They know we're better educated (Karl Rove SAID so!!!), we're more fun to be around, we're funnier, we live longer lives, we're healthier, we are nicer people, we smell better for the most part, we believe in helping people who are unable to help themselves, giving them a leg up, we believe in higher education for everyone (EVERYONE!) and we believe that "when everyone does better, everyone does better!"
How hard can it be for those people to realize that we are good people? How can they be so frightened of us because Sean Hannity, Bill O'Reilly, Oliver North, G. Gordon Liddy, Mike Savage, Don Imus, et al - say we are Satan's spawn? Are they incapable of thought?

Despite numerous warnings, Syria & Iran continue to support international terrorism. Without their help, hezbollah would crumble.

Is the time right for Israel to show that she means business with a small scale nuclear strike on Iran and Syria?

Hey man, can't we just have world peace? Why do we have to fight wars, man? Like if we just sat around and did nothing, and showed the terrorists we mean them no harm, they would stop attacking people, right?

Does anyone agree with that?

Hitler looked at the jews in captivity and did not see human beings. As a result of his maniacal evil many of these prisoners were used for medical experimentation, just like the left when ever they see a fetus or an embryo. Many Americans do not want to get into a debate about testing on human beings, but since so many on the left do not object, perhaps you could all tell us in what other ways do you agree with Hitler? Be specific now. You are making such an effort to emulate him.
