Politics & Government - 13 September 2006

I can't believe anyone would sit there and complain that the government is bad and has too much control over their life, yet they want to make the government do more to censor television. They want the government to socialize healthcare and make laws presiding over the use of it. We've seen what the government does when given too much control over something-- look at our taxes. Do you really want to give that same body control over the rest of our lives? Do you want to see cencorship on the level of that of China?

President Bush asked congress to amend the War Crimes Act so that him and other officials are protected from criminal prosecution and civil suits arising from war crimes, retroactively. Is this an implied confession that they have commited war crimes?

the 2nd amendment states "a well regulated militia", so my question was, do you belong to a well regulated militia? Why did it get erased? Stupid Republicans.

I cannot understand why crimes of violence here in the u.k are not treated more seriously, because to me if you are going to carry a knife it is the same as carrying a gun both can, and do kill,should we increase the maximum term of imprisonment from five years and follow the american system of say, five to twenty five,that way the offender will have to prove they are sorry, and what restitution should the criminal give to the victim and/or family.
This crime really is on the increase here and needs to be sorted out give them five years mandatory just for being in possession, please tell me your views.

If you take a close look how kissy kissy face cozy the Bush family is with the Saudis it's beyond disturbing.
Does anyone know what it's like in Saudi Arabia? What they put people to death for?

And what does this all have to do with oil and
the that we are at peak production of this limited resource?

Police discover 65 bodies across Iraq BAGHDAD, Iraq - Police found the bodies of 65 men who had been tortured, shot and dumped, most around Baghdad, while car bombs, mortar attacks and shootings killed at least 30 people around Iraq and injured dozens more.


Two U.S. soldiers were killed, one by an attack in restive Anbar province Monday, and the other Tuesday by a roadside bomb south of Baghdad, the U.S. military command said.

Police said 60 of the bodies were found overnight around Baghdad, with the majority dumped in predominantly Sunni Arab neighborhoods, police said. Another five were found floating down the Tigris river in Suwayrah, 25 miles south of the capital.

The bodies were bound, bore signs of kidnapping and shootings. The Iraqi people are tired of the killings and want to know why the USA is powerless to stop the violence. George Bush should never have said "Bring it On". The Iraqi people pay everyday for that remark.

She came to my home 2 weeks ago because she said my 13 and 11 year olds teachers complained about their coming to school with their shirt untucked, sometimes their hair doesn't LOOK like they(my daughter 11 yr old) brushed it. I would not let her in my house because she was nosy, rude, and obnoxious.Now, Monday, Sept.11, she called the DFAC's office(Department of Family and Children Services) and reported to them that my kids come to school dirty, smelling, they don't do their homework, she said that we don't have any food, washing powder, soap, shampoo,etc. She also said our house was falling down, holes in the walls, filthy...this besides the fact that she has never BEEN in my house, and we have a brand new 2006 mobile home with 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms when we moved here 3 months ago....I let the Dfac's worker in, and she said my house was beautiful, and she acted irritated because she could not figure out was she was even called!

I record local history and take photos of buildings etc. The police give me no problem but these security people are a real problem. If I am on public property what can they do? If private property can they only ask you to leave? Taking the camera must be theft and asault if they use force. What is police opinion of these security staff?
