What happened? Usually, the two parties have always fluctuated, through out history, going from 'radical' to 'moderate'. In the end they both push themselves in and out of the 'moderate range' of the 'political spectrum'(at least they did). Is it me or have they both fallen 'out of touch' with the American Public? Isn't there a case to be made that just short of cold-blooded killing, both parties are reaching 'extreme radical levels'? Is it so bad to say that the majority of 'party liners' have been dooped into believeing that they are as radical as their party has gotten?

I want all sides here... I'd love to hear from anyone who has a REAL ANSWER... whether you agree or disagree.

Thanks in advance.

Men not only in the Middle East, but in other countries around the world (like the US, UK) many of whom are in college. Why are these recruits mostly young men, and why are these young men willing to blow themselves (and others) up?

The insurgents are kicking the butts of the puny American soldiers and ther is nothing the USA can do about it. How can this be? The insurgents are a rag tag group of men but yet they rule!! Amazing!

From a strict American perspective:

Being Israel is such a drain on the US economy, gives us nothing in return but more headaches to solve, is in constant fear of being over run.

Why shouldn't Israel just move? I feel if the US tax payer has to fund this project of an Israeli state then why not move to a better location where there would be less of this squabbling. I have no problem with helping but when does it end? The tax payer is burdened by this and Israel does not have to pay back the majority of the money we send. Not to mention the country is not self sufficient which to me is a failed project anyways.

I would prefer to hear from pro-Israeli people. So they can explain to me what the US gets from this relationship.

(sorry if the question is blunt, but its also fair, Israel recieves more aid than Africa and we know what condition that country is in.)

Explain the difference between fiscal policy and monetary policy. Provide specific examples of how the government utilizes each type of policy in an attempt to maintain a stable, productive economy. Provide insight into why some economists believe one is more effective than the other.

Iraq has been such a hit I just thought I'd ask.

We also have 48 Million Americans with no health insurance,yet we pour about $213 Million dollars a WEEK down the drain in Iraq.Mispalced priorities?Hell no!That's the way it should be!See how immoral that really sounds?

Why is it that unless you ignore Bush's incompetence,you have "no morals and no brains" at all.

And to the off-the-wall hat-wearing conservatives,please stop with the childish,profane e-mail,unless you're man enough to say it in front of everyone,which you are usually not.

Take a break from politics for a moment with this joke.

A husband walks into Frederick's of Hollywood to purchase some sheer lingerie for his wife. He is shown several possibilities that range from $250 to $500 in price, the sheerer, the higher the price. He opts for the sheerest item, pays the $500 and takes the lingerie home. He presents it to his wife and asks her to go upstairs, put it on and model it for him.

Upstairs, the wife thinks, "I have an idea. It's so sheer that it might as well be nothing. I'll not put it on, do the modeling naked and return it the next day and get a $500 refund for myself. So she appears naked on the balcony and strikes a pose.

The husband says, "Good Lord! You'd think that for $500, they'd at least iron it!"

Funeral Services are pending

I truely believe that capital and corporal punishment should be used in many instances as a replacement for prison time. For example say a multiple rapist gets 40 years, hes never getting out is he or if he does he will be so messed up he will probably kill himself. Why not execute him in a proven painless fashion, saves tax payer money and overall the actual convict a lot of pain. The argument that we cant kill them because they MIGHT be innocent seems bizarre... You cant sentence someone to life in prison unless you are really sure can you?

The democrats have always been ardent supporters of Israel over the years. Countless Democratic senators, congressmen and the Clintons have all weathered barbs from conservatives that we provide Israel with financial assistance and spy data, including raw data that the CIA and NSA won't release to almost any US elected official. And in return we receive censored, often incomplete and frequently erroneous data. On top of which Israel has spyed against us.

However, this year, the tables have turned and the liberals, the most ardent of supporters that Israel has enjoyed over the years, are condemning their use of force to protect their borders from terrorists. Additionally, the Democrats are attacking Bush for mishandling the Israeli incursion into Lebanon and not insisting on a ceasefire and halt to all hostities. As if the President can tell Israel what they must do.

Have the Democrats decided in this election year to throw the Israeli's under the bus for the sake of a few votes?

It seems the world forgets about Palestine every time a bigger story comes along. It is also apparent that it's Arab neighbors are either afraid (except Hezbollah) or they just don't give a damn about the Palestinian's living conditions.
