Why havn't they been able to find anything to impeach him for? If he has done so much wrong, why can't the democrats find anything concrete that would stand up in court?

It certainly isn't the lack of powerfull democrats that hate him.

Is Bush so smart that in all his illegal activities (sarcasm) he has left no trail?

airplane, oh--say flight 93. You're taken over by hi-jackers and headed to kill hundreds of innocents. You manage to get a direct line to the president. Would you tell him to shoot the plane down or would you allow hundreds more to perish with you? Remember--you're gonna die anyway.

once again i must remind you not to resort to name calling, harasment or gospeling. this is just to see what people would choose if they had the opportunity.

1. have you ever attempted to kill or seriously injure another human being: self-defence(emergency only) or other reasons?

2. if in exile would you prefer to hide in iran, colombia or south africa?

3. if someone (stranger) was leaving a bar drunk and driving, would you call the cops, offer him a ride or neither?

4. if running from the cops (murder 1 charges) would you leave town, leave the state or leave the country?

5. if a draft (for iraq) was put into affect but you had the choice to choose from, air force, navy, army or go "awoll" witch would you choose?


my answers:

1. i have and it was for "other" reasons.

2. i'd go to colombia.

3. offer the drunk a ride provided he's too drunk to try and rob me.

4. leave the country and come back in a year.

5. i'd go awoll, i don't believe in the iraq war.

In the past 10 years the Gov. made a move, a double or tripple step move. The purpose was to get everyones money, no matter what way they turn and squeeze the riches out of the baby boomers. In the end, those big houses will be worthless and mostlikey empty. Why, because phase one, was to build tons of homes and give great rates to get buyers, hell some evern bought and sold as an investment, buying new house after new house making big money in the process. Sounds fun, until you satuate the market get everyone and their mother a mortgage and inch up property taxes, decrease the value of their homes and inch up rates. What do you have then.....A TRAP!!!!....Americans are now trapped in homes they can not sell but must pay the mortgage while Uncle Sam's state side buddies bend you over and rap you with property taxes. Soon they will exceed your mortgage payment so that even the Baby boomer who has the cash to pay his 599K house off will run out of cash trying to pay taxes on it....

It doesn't. You can't yell "fire" in a crowded theater, and you can't even JOKE about assassinating the president.
Like President Bush or not, he's in until January 2009. All that talking about assassinating him will do for a person is get them arrested, hopefully for TREASON.
It's okay to disagree with the president, it really is. But freedom of speech only extends so far.

The reason I ask is I was reading an article in BBC News where an American living in London said she had run across a man who saked if she was american and when she said yes he told her he thought Americans were the poorest people in the world. Also the article said that Americans living in London were treated worse than the immigrants. Frankly I do not consider a WASP American in England an immigrate, just as an Italian-American moving to Italy would not be an immigrant. What does anyone think about this?

Both major parties, Dems & Repubs play politics with every issue; Security, Jobs, Immigration, Foreign Policy. Why cant people accept that? Bush, Cheney, Frist, Delay, & the rest of the Reublican leadership for the past 6 years have to be amongst the most extreme . They have played upon 9/11 & the fear of terrorism and put this country in a war of choice. They cherry picked intelligence. If that isnt treason i dont know what is.

Well, how am I racist if I came here from Mexico and family is Hispanic? Some people may contest that I was "not raised Hispanic" so I don't know the struggle of illegals. Let me tell you this... in terms of being raised "Hispanic" what does that mean? Eating burritos? Liking cumbia? Do you even realize how racist that in itself is?.... but if you mean speaking Spanish, etc. hell no. My mother insisted assimilation is the key to being successful in America. And guess what... she was right, being well spoken and versed in both English and Spanish opens doors and people like my relatives who insist on not learning English still do dead end jobs like yard work, food service etc. I really hate all those stubborn immigrants who only speak their native language and that is why people like me who wanna get ahead resent them for making us look bad, just like holding up Mexico flags in the protests. So what are your best reasons that I am supposedly racist? I will answer all in this page

The IRS is hiring private debt collection companies to go after people who have avoided paying taxes. The information that will be given to these companies may cause identity theft or other problems. How can I relate this to a political issue about distribution of wealth or something similar? And if not then can you list some current political issues

Do you agree that nearly every Politian, from all political parties, has become cloned. Nobody has any clear relavance, direction, ambition, or foundation.
Just like the way our high streets are becoming swamped with consumerism, our parties have no real commitment, other than please those who spend the most money...!!!

Many people say you should go back to there country to start the process of legalizing them the right way, then come back to America legally.

The problem is, the only sure way to do that is if your very wealthy because money usually talks regardless of a circumstance.

In reality, if any normal mid, to lower class person did that, they would be moving to a place were there are little to no job opportunities, so you won't make much money. You probably won't have a house, or even a car. You'll live in poverty. Job pay is very little. This is why many illegals come to America.

Also, it can take up to 15 years, or never, depending on the political circumstances to get papers legalized.

So, what would be more logical to do? Go back to their country to live a terrible life with false hopes of ever fixing papers & returning to U.S.? Or staying in the U.S. making good money, living well illegally until they make a reasonable way for the ones you love to go & become legalized?

Ok, Yahoo Answers, the news, and people in general have really pissed me off. A little about me….. I am about 4 generations deep in servicemen. Me, my dad, grandfather, great, and who knows from there. I have my wartime service ribbon from Desert Storm in 1991, where I served in the United States Army. I am very proud to have served for my country, and I am very patriotic. With that said, the continuous wave of crap that I hear on a daily basis has just gotten under my skin. Maybe the anniversary of 9-11 less than 24 hours away has something to do with it. Lets start with President Bush. I think in light of the challenges he has been faced with he has done a good job. When people say we have been at war for no reason, it just brings light to the point…. most people who do not support our president have NO clue what they are talking about. Here is a project for you, do a search of gas prices in the rest of the world and let me know what you come up with..... I am sure you will be happy to pay your $2.50 a gallon once you know what you are talkin about. “Bring the troops home. They are over there dying for no reason” This really pisses me off. Have you ever thought the troops WANT TO BE THERE! AND THEY ARE DAMN PROUD OF THE JOB THEY ARE DOING???? And to hear some people say bring them home, and dying for no reason is a huge smack in the face. Weapons of mass destruction HAVE been found on 2 separate dates, for one. Iraq is a hub for terrorist groups including Al Qieda. Also the Iraqi people deserve the same freedoms we enjoy. It is all fun and games until your loved one gets killed in the next terrorist attack on American soil. I bet you will be the first one to squeal….. how could you have let this happen Mr. President.!!!! And I will tell you how he got 2 terms as president, uneducated people like you are sittin naked on their beanbag eating cheetos on election day....THANK GOD! If the Stars and Stripes offend you, or you don't like Uncle Sam, then you should seriously consider a move to another part of this planet. (like hell?) We are happy with our country and have no desire to change, and we really don't care what you think of Iraq, President Bush, Osama, my Momma, or whatever. This is OUR COUNTRY, our land, and our lifestyle Our First Amendment gives every citizen the right to express his opinion and we will allow you every opportunity to do so! But once you are done complaining........ whining...... and griping....... about our flag....... our pledge...... our national motto........or our way of life....I highly encourage you to take advantage of one other Great American Freedom.......THE RIGHT TO LEAVE. Can I get a Hell Yea!

Many Conspiracy theorists say that Al Qaeda would never be able to carry off such attacks. Now Al Qaeda types are releasing tapes showing them training for the attacks, are they trying to convince us that we really need to fear them? Of course some say that even those tapes are bogus. If their purpose is to scare us does it frustrate them when so many don’t even believe in their capacity to attack us? I think that those theories are ludicrous but if they p!ss Osama off, well that is a silver lining in my opinion.
