Harper's government decided to cancel Liberal plans to open more daycare spaces and instead to give $100 per month per child under the age of 6 so PARENTS CAN RAISE THEIR KIDS. There are radio ads on the air, provided by the federal conservative government, where two mothers are talking about how they spend the $100 dollars. One of the mothers goes on to say that she spends it on a baby sitter. Why take $100 a month to hire some stranger (which does not cover a babysitter for a month) when we could have had more daycare centers with properly educated and qualified people looking after them. What do you think about this?

I'm a white American who's ancestors immigrated primarily from Germany/Prussia in the early 19th century. I often wonder what it would be like to live in Germany today.

First of all Rhode Island is about ten miles wide. Worse yet, it's not even a friggin Island. Delaware is just an annoyance you pass through to get to real states. Does anybody honestly say, "Yeah Man, Delaware is F'ING AWESOME!!!"

For me, it would be covering the feet with oil and then burning them slowly. I hear that the flesh burns away and the bones start falling out, and this happens while you are awake and you feel it.

What would be the worst kind of torture for you?

There seem to be a lot of citizens of the U.S.A. (probably the ones that support Bush and war) that use the word "liberal" in a negative way. Why? Don't they realize that "liberal" and "liberty" are connected? And why is the U.S. so far right now that someone who would've been considered a moderate conservative a few years ago is suddenly a "liberal"? How does a whole country swing so far towards Naziism in 2006?

The wages in Mexico are so low, so to them the American minimum wage is a huge blessing. It's really the corrupt Mexican government's fault that there are illegal immigrants from Mexico, for not creating decent jobs there....not to mention the greedy American businesses who hire illegals for peanuts and cheap labor, and then those sneaky Republican politicians who use "race" and immigration as an issue to get certain racist voters to vote for them, but then when they get elected they care for no one but the greedy American businesses who keep on hiring illegals... and it becomes a vicious, never ending cycle.

Check this website www.immigrationvoice.org. It takes 6-8 yrs to get a green card for a person on a visa. He/She cannot change employers, cannot get promoted etc etc.. So His/Her employer can take advantage of him. Driver's license issues what not.. People are talking about approx more than 12 million illegals. How about 500K of people who have been paying taxes, contributing to FICA & Medicare for 4 to 5 years now? Most of them paid out of state tuition to get higher education. What say? I wanna know how much percentage of general public is aware of this.

The attack in Baqouba, 35 miles northeast of Baghdad, came as a new poll by the State Department and independent researchers indicated a strong majority of Iraqis want U.S.-led military forces to withdraw immediately from the country. The poll, obtained by The Washington Post, showed, for example, that nearly three-quarters of Baghdad residents would feel safer if the U.S. and other foreign forces left Iraq with 65 percent favoring an immediate pullout. About six in 10 Iraqis say they approve of attacks on U.S.-led forces, and slightly more than that want their government to ask U.S. troops to leave within a year, according to a poll in that country.Almost four in five Iraqis say the U.S. military force in Iraq provokes more violence than it prevents.


This just seems to me to be senseless we are there if they do not want us to be. Is Bush hiding reasons we are there? What do you think? My husband is there,his 3rd tour in Iraq,do you think they will get to come home soon?

This week, America learned of a National Intelligence Estimate concluding that the war in Iraq has unequivocally increased the threat of global terrorism. The estimate represents the consensus of all sixteen federal intelligence agencies, and is a devastating repudiation of President Bush's phony arguments about the Iraq war.


Nevertheless, the Bush administration and its supporters continue to claim progress in the war on terror, even in the wake of this dramatic repudiation by the intelligence agencies.

Okay, see.......

I've talked to ordinary Iranians, and I've found that they'll shy away from ANY criticsim of the USA. Their atitude is that the USA is Paradise, and Iran is Hell. Their rulers haven't done ANYTHING right; when I mention economic indicators, they go off on a tangent. It's hard to get them to focus on any single question. The US and Cuba? Castros' a clown. The US and Iraq? Later. It's maddening. Can anyone help me understand this total devotion to the USA? I've heard of cultural cringe, but this is ridiculous!
