Whatever we think of our leaders and politicians, is it acceptable to use the C-word or any other form of swearing in public debates?

As far as world Empires go Rome came and went and it's influence is still felt today (the calender etc) The British Empire was one of the most influential and mile for mile I would guess the absolute biggest - it kind of pulled back after the second war and now it's the US that is the world super power - the world Empire as such.

Was the world better or safer when the UK was running the world stage ? Is the US doing a better job than other comparible nations in a similar position etc?

Lets just tell them that Indian women have a right to rip all the female unborn fetuses out they want right? What say you, libs?

WTF is the nobel peace prize if Ghandi never won it, and Stalin was nominated twice "for his efforts in WW2." BTW Stalin killed more people than hitler during his tenure as Secretary General of the Soviet Union.

Do you hate people who are born with hormone imbalances or are born with anomalous sex chromosomes, or people who are hermaphroditic? Do you hate all people who are medically intersexual? Do you hate them when they do not fit the category of male or female gender? Will you refuse to allow them to live their lives in peace? Or is your God sorry that He made people who were different from "male and female He created them"?

Having said that, not all "gays" and everyone in between are born that way, many are abused psychologically, or have emotional problems, or have been influenced by peer pressure or drugs, and not all gays live happy lives... many are depressed, addicted to lewd behavior, and are suicidal.

I think that children should be raised in homes with a husband and wife, so they have strong male and female role models. I am against gay adoption, but otherwise fully support equality for everyone, regardless of sexuality or orientation. Is that a compromise you can live with?

In 2000 military voters were denied their right to vote, 2004 minorities in Ohio and Florida were striped of thier right to vote. How will we prevent the actions of the past, and even if we can will it be worth it?

I would first like to start out by saying I do not claim to be liberal or conservative. I just noticed everyone in here seems to be so concerned about everyone else’s political party. Now, I know this room is called politics but...why can't we just share our views and not get into arguments over ridiculous things ALL the time? Is it that big of a deal if someone doesn't agree with you? It seems to me conservatives have crap on the liberal party. And the liberals have just the same amount of crap on the conservatives. It might be lies it might be the truth…does anyone really know 100%? Don't you notice that if we don't all come to a common agreement to agree to disagree we won't get anywhere? It just seems to go round and round. I'm not trying to start an argument...but isn't that what America is supposed to be about freedom, especially freedom of speech? Is it that enjoyable to bicker back and forth? What is arguing doing for anyone? It isn’t stopping the war. It isn’t making anyone believe in the war. It isn’t making anyone love Bush or Clinton. Do we argue just for the sake of it? If you do believe it is getting us somewhere by arguing…why do you believe that?

Former Israeli Foreign Minister Shlomo Ben-Ami said that Israel was born in sin like all other nations were born throughout history.
He Said: “Israel, as a society, suppressed the memory of its war against the local Palestinians, because it couldn't really come to terms with the fact that it expelled Arabs, committed atrocities against them, dispossessed them. This was like admitting that the noble Jewish dream of statehood was stained forever by a major injustice committed against the Palestinians and that the Jewish state was born in sin.”
Do you agree?

It is so unbelieveable that these so called "Americans" can get away with bashing the only President since Reagan who has an ounce of guts. Tell me libs, name one thing Clinton did to fight terrorism, just one thing. You libs are discusting. You pieces of **** completely forget 9-11 and how THOUSANDS of innocent AMERICANS were brutally murdered on that day. All you commies can say is "Bush is evil" "Bush is stupid". You liberal pieces of **** don't deserve to live in this great country. We finally have a president with some guts to standup to these terrorists and all you libs have to say is "terrorists are not being treated well at Guantanamo" or "9-11 was an inside job". It is true that liberals are as great a threat to the United States as terrorism. Ann Coulter said Liberals are Godless and damn if she isn't right. Liberals are the most evil, hateful, vicious piece's of crap on the planet, and they hide behind this fantasy of being kind,compassionate, and oh so tolerant.

My idea is that after a 6 to 8 year length of service, military personel get a hefty raise, and a government guarenteed retirement plan, that they invest in themselves, such as the Thrift Savings Plan. They could invest up to 50% of their pay. Also, not have a mandatory retirement time in service, but mandatory age 60 for anyone under E-7, under O-4, and WO's with no required retirement. For those with service connected disability, a Tri-Care plan and Veterans Administration Health Plan, and Tri-Care/ any military medical facility, at age 60 (Tri-care to include full Medical, Dental, and Vission, Veterans Administration for Service connected).
