even when i do not like him is hard to not believe him when the only thing that comes out from the anti-immigrants is pure hate .

they call babies by names , they call those with different opinions criminal suporters , compare every immigrant undocumented to a rapist or a terrorist , they ask to not allow undocumenteds medical care . i mean this is a little bit crazy .

how long will this attitude last ???

is this attitude beneficial to america ???

is this how u want the world to think about America ???

is this pure evil like schwarsenegger says ???

this bad attitude will not only destroy their personal lives but will also cost America so much . look at the intolerance of the taliban look how iraq has become and used to be . all of this because they left their hate take over .

US Army vehicle philosophy in recent years seems to be shifting from heavily armoured vehicles like the M1 tanks to woefully underarmoured vehicles like the Stryker 8x8 series and soon the Future Combat Systems manned vehicles. Both systems are supposed to rely on speed and surprise rather than armour (of which they have little) to survive, yet events in Iraq and elsewhere prove the exact opposite, that there will still be a need for heavy armour. Yet the US Army (or rather the Defense Department) seems to be pressing on with ordering more Strykers (without any improvement other than the less-than-effective slat screens), and in all likelihood the current plans for the FCS manned vehicles (which are incapable of surviving their own 105mm cannons) will be frozen as they are.

Is the shift away from heavy armour a good thing...or will we just be seeing more bodybags in future conflicts as a result of this change in vehicle philosophy?

I visited the Liberty Bell in Philadelphia, PA, this past weekend and overheard some Australian tourists mockingly discussing how most Americans can't even define the term liberty...and how it is over used in America today. So I asked myself the question, as a former political science major, if I could define liberty. It was tough, and all I could really come up with was one word... freedom. Love to hear other peoples thoughts on what liberty means in the context of our founding fathers as well as in a modern day context. Thanks much!

Iran's unyielding stance appears to be based on the calculation that Russia and China, both veto-wielding permanent members of the Security Council, will oppose sanctions.

On Monday, the Iranian government insisted a hostile U.S. attitude was to blame for the crisis.


Even if Russia does veto sanctions will that stop the US? They have never listened to the UN before. Without the UN can America impose trade sanctions on thier own? I don't think they can ....but they could just attack and go to war - Will they?

I've read the articles, visited the anti Bush web sites and listened to the propaganda but in the end all I see is another President, the same as all the rest. So why do people want to get rid of him? Do they just want a new president to harass and hate? It seems part of our culture to hate the President. Maybe it's the war? Arn't we helping the people over in Iraq establish a better country, so in the end they wont need our support, so we can for go the Charity commercials to save kids in Iraq. I don't mean to offend anyone but I just don't get. Where does all the hatred come from? Hate as never lead to anything good, not ever.

How do you think it'd work? Would we just send a few thousand busses to Tiajuana and simply send them across? Do a super cool 'air drop'. Hmmm. it'd be like WWII, thousands of parachutes opening up over the major Mexican cities.

What about turnabout? What if we offered a free one way ticket to those in our jails?

If any of this sounds unfair, now you've gained a bit of insight as to how a lot of US citizens feel about this perceived invasion. Telling us that we're racists or that it is so unfair that our country is doing so much better than yours is not an acceptable excuse.

It seems that some people hate Bush more than they love this country. When feminists attack Bush it just shows how willing people are to throw away their own values if someone they dislike is doing things that they themselves would do. I am talking about Bush sending the woman oppressing Taliban packing. I swear if Bush started supporting abortion all you pro-choicers would turn pro-life. Bush has also spent more money on welfare programs than any president in history and black people still say he hates them and does nothing for the poor, albeit the perpetually poor. (Seriously black folks, put down the government teat)So, is it true, do you hate Bush more than you love yourself and your country?
