What happened to honest conversations? I invite you to respond without using any cliches, sound bites or talking points from wither side of the aisle. And no name calling either.

Most of us don't see a brain there at all. I don't know if it because they don't have one or is it because it is abnormal?

as they did in 2000 and 2004? If the Diebold "election" results again are far skewed from the exit polls - is it time to take our country back from the tyrannical GOP by force? Should we start stockpiling guns preparing for the Civil War II? I know the GOP lost the first Civil War, yet they stuck around and took advantage of America's freedoms while leeching off of our country. This time should they be kicked out of the country? Revoking US citizenship would be a start. LMAO

I am very disturbed by what is going on. If I was Lebonese, I would be fighting too. I love america, and right or wrong, I will defend her borders. I can't blame Isreal either, the whole thing is really F'd up. I beleive that these things were set into place by a higher power anyway, does that me we are obligated to step in?? Are we apart of a the overall solution or are we the problem...? The US has a vested interest in this region and we need to protect those who can't protect themselves. How can we let Isreal destroy a soveriegn nation just because of terrorism. That is not right either? Who's got the answer for this one??

Most people would agree that most US citizens are Christians and as such share similar morals and views. Should those morals and views be incorporated into the creation and ongoing changes of the laws of the country? Why? Should they play a role in our interactions with other countries? Why?

Did U hear? In Centerville, UT, they are building a $65 million facility to be completed in September?
It will consist of 10 dome-like structures made of steel frames covered with a nylon-based materal. Each dome will house 200 beds for a total of 2,000 beds to hold illegals for deportation.

The government is working to end the "catch and release" policy that has recently resulted in the deportation of thousands of illegals.

This contract was secured by a local company who received it from ICE less than a month ago. They began contstruction the end of June...

While the facility may look like tents, they are very secure. Two fences of razor wire protect the project, ....the illegals will be held there, processed and deported with an estimated holding time of 2-4 weeks.


ISN'T THIS GREAT.... the plan is to build these holding camps all over the nation....

Now, let the deportation begin!

America belongs to Americans!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Goodbye MEXICO!!!!!

Muslims are people just like everyone else. I imagine parents would like to see their children grow, marry, have children, just as the rest of us do. So what is the motivation of their fight? What do they hope to accomplish? Do they wish to convert as many to their religion and kill off the rest? Do they fear that Christians and Jews want to do the same to them, so for them this is a defense? I guess what I am really asking is "Would there be anything for them to receive or any arrangement that would encourage them to lay down their arms and live with the rest of the world in peace?"

Please, serious answers only, and no "Muslim-hatred". I work for a large company where Muslims, Christians, Hindus, and Jews all work in peace. I know not all Muslims are evil and I want to learn why this can't work in the rest of the world.

Thanks!

i mean come on you think your army is the greatest in the world, its not, how do you know it is? it has never been in war against canada or mexico (im talking about the present and venezuelas army, well that army is way better than ours they just purchased those high tech fighter jets and stuff from russia. Anyways, mexico's army is just as powerfull, dont underestimate what you dont know, and for the people who keep saying " oh texas kicked mexico's a-s-s blah blah blah.." it didn't and if you'd open a damn history book you'd know that the mexican army had weakend and beaten the american forces, the only thing that made the american army was a suprise attack on mexican soldiers. The mexican army was asleep when the americans decided to attack and capture the mexican flag as a sign of victory< this act was not allowed thats why the americans paid money after the war. Either way, you gringos would never want to go to war with mexico, you lost 2 vietnam a poor country what about that!

I'm a little sickened by some(but not all) of the so-called "pro-lifers" on this site.I have seen them bemoaning the legality of abortion,and yet some of them call for murdering doctors who perform it and people who want to keep it legal.

This is what I'm talking about:
"Liberals are declaring war on babies.It's high time we bomb them too"-Mr_Scorpio_Rules,July 31,2006.
"Liberals do discard babies like garbage"-Irishhapist.

What a mess they are.

My reasoning is this:
1-To reduce abortions,start by keeping it in sterile,safe clinics.
2-This will make women more receptive to alternatives to abortion in the first place.
3-Regular normal Americans of all political stripes are not hung up on abortion.Most people avoid any lengthy discussion on it.
4-If some conservtaives went so deeply opposed to premartial sex in the first place before the sexual revolution,maybe the left's "reaction" with promiscuity,abortion,and pornography wouldn't be so flamboyant.Tit for tat,as history goes.

Many gays are gun owners. What do you think of this? Is it OK with you? Some of us carry guns to protect us from homophobes. If Matthew Shepherd had had a gun the night he was killed, don't you think it's likely that he would be alive today?

Has the world gone crazy? How can there be ppl supporting the Israeli crimes?
Israel in turn is killing women and children. I understand that hizbullah is a thereat and the latter SHOULD be eliminated. my point though is that, is it ok for israel to bomb a bldg with tons of civilians in it because of one or 2 hizbulla are in it? the question is not whether the terorist was in it or no, it is if its ok to bomb the bldg for that.
Israel has all the right to defend itself, but for Heaven's sake, this is not the way to do so. bombing anything that comes to the face is not self defense. killing women and children is TERORIRSM. just like hizbulla is labeled terorist, so should israel. just like civilians in nazi germany were convinced and brainwahsed to kill poor defensless jews, so are the israelis and americans that are fine with the fact that it is ok for israel to kill defenselss chilren. WAKE UP ppl, the world has gone mad, and we are doing the same mistake as in the nazi times :(
