First he stole the election and then he arranged to have the twin towers rammed into by airplanes, then he starts a war with a really good ruler of Iraq and he caused so many innocent iraqi guardsmen to die. Bush is sooo bad. All we have to do is apologize to the muslims and they won't terrorize America anymore. At least Bill Clinton only bombed aspirin factories and he allowed Osama to go free. See, that is the reason Osama didn't hurt us while Clinton was in office. Clinton was good to him. And Al Gore really won the election so I think Bush is a thief, a really baaaad man. Us liberals know the REAL truth. There is no good side, define "good". See you neocons can't do it. You neocons should appease terrorists like Germany and France. You don't see them getting bombed unless it is with beer or wine.

What is up with extra security at the Mexican border?? It's stupid!!! We don't need extra security there, we need it at the NY and L.A. ports!!!!

A few weeks ago there was a threat that came in through the l.a. port saying a bunch of nonsense about us jews and of bush's govt. Security is being put in the wrong place!!! Doesn't anyone see that???

Im a single parent with 3 kids and to make ends meet I have no choice but to work as a result I have to put my 4 year old into private nursery, the funding provided by the Government does bring the cost down a bit during school term. I have just received Augusts bill but no funding has been deducted as the school term starts August 22nd when I asked them about it they said that as there is only a week left in August the funding will start in September, can they do that? I always thought that nurseries were automatically sent the funding monies and no matter how many days or weeks left everyone should benefit from this. Is there someone who can help as I think £514 is a lot to pay without any funding. I paid Julys fees, I didnt think I'd have to pay the full whack for August.

I do no live in the United States.. I live in a forien country.. Why do you keep listening to all the BS that your news keeps putting out..Did you hear the news today about the Women and Children that the Hezbollah forced to march in front of their attacking troops.
Ya, they got killed, but who killed them ?? CNN surely will not tell you that they were killed by the Hezbollah. Shitttttttttttttttttttttttttt.
They will say just that they were killed and will show pictures of children being put in an Ambulance or an old lady being carried to an aid station.. They will then say that there was x amount of civilians killed but will not say that the Hezbollah did it..
How about the news today where Iran is supplying the terrorist Hezbollah with over $ 100,000,0000 per year for Terrorist activities against Iseral ?? Try tuning in to some forien countriy and listen to their news.

It appears to me that Israel is going to do what they want regardless of world opinion.

Is Israel trying to destroy itself?

Is it trying to rush into some sort of biblical prophesy?

Why would they do that?

Well, is that not what this country is? A country of immigrants, whites from europe, blacks from africa, chinese from china, polynesians from the pacific, spanish from spain,you get my drift. The only natives are the native americans which are natives from alaska all the way down to argentina. Mexicans descend from the natives, and was once the nation governing these lands. Is that what you really fear? That our population grows so much that you will no longer have any say so on how to govern this nation? We were here first, and we're here to stay, like it or not. Go ahead with the project, build a new border. People will always find their way across, and we will still be popping out babies like the bakery pops out cinnamin rolls. I have 5 kids, and because of this debate, and the insult my people have taken, I will have 5 more kids. To make our population grow five times more.

The house gave themselves raises due to rising cost of living but denied the minimum wage to be raised. Last week they passed the minimum wage increase only if the democratics would sign a bill giving millionare's tax cuts as well. They did this because of the race is coming up. it would be bad publicity if they gave themselves raises and not the average working joe.

Correct me if I am wrong, but most people join a party because they have a few issues they hold very dear to and find that party upholds those issues. However, with the vast scope of issues in the political arena it doesn't seem likely that anyone first drew an opinion of each issue and then found that it was exactly aligned with the party. Consider if before you knew any party line on any issue, if you were presented the top 100 issues today and had to pick your view before knowing how your party felt...do you think anyone in the party would be 100% in line with the party view? Its seems logical that even in you chose the majority of your party views, that 100% is highly unlikely.

What do you think? Are the majority of the party members sheep in reference to the bulk of the issues?

Why has Israel not been nuked yet? Why is there no major effort to defeat them? The arabs (you know the ones) want Israel off the face of the planet, right? They hate them will all their hearts. They say nothing would be better or please Allah more than the destruction of Israel. So why don't they try?

Are the scared of retalitaion or US intervention? But this should be irrelevant since it goes back to dieing for the cause and getting their great rewards in the after-life. Yes Israel is a tough country militarily, but it would seem a coordianted effort could take them out.

So what's the deal? I by no means want Israel destroyed, nor do I want an escalation of war, but I gotta ask, do they only talk the talk and don't walk the walk? What is really stopping them from trying to destroy Israel?

Do the leaders, deep down, not believe the rhetoric they preach? Is the extremeist views just used by the leadership to control people and keep them in power and wealth?

I recently took a polygraph test for a position in the law enforcement field (dispatcher). I listed everything embarrassing that happened in my life that I could remember including things I did when I was a teenager. I admitted taking Valium and Skelaxin w/o a prescription and also told the times I almost went out on my husband. Here is the kicker, I still showed a big response to the questions "Have you ever taken any illegal drugs other than the ones we discussed?" and "Have I ommitted or falsified anything on the application?" and had responses to these questions. I was very nervous taking this, so nervous I shook all over in the chair I was sitting in. I mean, I disclosed alot of things to the tester, why would I be ashamed to tell him other things. Now the company probably won't hire me. I don't know what else to do.

I find myself in the middle politically because there are many issues I am on the right and many other issues I am on the left. It listen/watch/read a lot of politics and being somewhat independent allows me to see an unreal amount of hypocritical things that both parties hold to.

I am interested in hearing some of what you think either party says and/or does that is immensely hypocritical.

Black leaders were outraged at his use of the term, which dates to the 19th century Uncle Remus stories, referring to a doll made of tar that traps Br'er Rabbit. It has come to be known as a way of describing a sticky mess, and has been used as a derogatory term for a black person.
