I ask one this morning ( He had a I support the troops decal on his vehicle ) I said "If you support the war then please go and join". He looked at me as if he had crap in his mouth. He said "I only support the war if other people fight it for me. I have a good job. I'm making good money so no way will I join the military. No way!" Then he told me to mind my own business. I then stole his decal off his vehicle. That now makes 9 decals I now have. I didn't want him to continue a lie. Was I right to do that?

Bosh said there were nuclear weapons in Iraq and that was the reason for invading Iraq, later he said no signs of such a thing!! Do you American think it was fair to invade a country based on falls assumptions? Was it worth it? How many innocents Americans and Iraqis died? How many mothers suffered the lost of their beloved?
Why cant' Bosh leave the world alone until he is asked for help?.
He said Iraqis will welcome him and the army with roses and celebrations, look what is happing now for the American solders there. How long American people will continue to listen to his lies?.
Just few years ago, American people were friends around the world; Bosh made people hate the Americans and try to destroy them where and whenever there is a chance.
In my country I was raised to have respect for American and look up to them as being ahead in technology, I have always respected your freedom of choice ,your freedom of speech. We still like the American as citizens and as human beings ,but we don't like your government and that is why extremists do terrorist actions to you all over the world ,because they can not reach you government. We don't agree of such a thing and we thing you are victims of your government's policies, and we feel sorry for you.
Let's put our hands together and bring the world to peace, lets forget the governments, citizens are the majority and they can do a lot. Let's have ways to communicate to each other and spell our fears and find solutions for them.

A friend of mind asked me to help him to get a cell phone couples of years ago. Due to his bad credit, he couldn't get one on his own at the time. Being a good friend, I did the favour for him. And It seemed no problem until last two months. He got a job offer out side of Canada and was ready to leave the country for a long time. I did mentioned to him about his last phone bill, $500. He promised to return to me as soon as possible. But he didn't, and left the country with a word to me. Later on, a middle friend of ours showed up with this guy's personal check and his threaten about whether I dare to try to cash the check. No surprise, the check bounced last week... And I counldn't get hold of him every since. what can I do now? should i take it to the court? Where should I start with? He is in HongKong right now, and his families are trying to sell the house and move to there as well...

The State Dept. confirmed that Rice did receive a CIA briefing about terror threats two months before the Sept. 11 attacks,

Bob Woodward in his new book describes the White House meeting as an emergency wake up call that Rice simply brushed off.

Yet, CIA Director Tenet and the county'ss top counterterror officer state that the session stood out in their minds as the "starkest warning they had ever given the White House" on an al-Qaida threat.

Rice was national security adviser at the time and her support for an preemptive attack on Iraq through spreading lies about their being a nuclear threat to the American public got her promoted to the top diplomatic job last year.

Although, both the State Department and the National Security Council indicated on Sunday that such a meeting had taken place, Rice continued to lie about it on Monday night saying that she would have remembered the sort of forceful warning the book claims.

Can any leader ever believe anything she says?

Right after 9/11, the world showered us with support and praise. Now, from all reports, the rest of the world (excepting Israel and a handful of European nations) looks at America in disgust. How did this all happen in a few short years???

I think so because my questioned get deleted that correlate latinos with illegals. They are jjust two things you can't seperate. The latinos are the ones that call racism because they know that over 80% of illegals are latinos. They are paranoid and bring the race card on themselves. There is nothing racist about associating latinos with illegals aliens..it is just a fact that they are the majority. The latino leftist rhetoric is the primary voice in immigration rallies...which by the way is a racist voice for the most part

How long has he known about this Foley scandal? How low is it if he's known about this for so long and simply waited until an election time to put his book out? Kinda self serving, making money off pedophilia claims and serving one's political agenda... Was he not concerned that Foley was going after other kids?

The idea that the GOP side of the House of Representatives is a bunch of perverts hitting on [congressional] pages is absurd! It is the Democrats who have condoned that kind of behavior in the past. It's the Democrats who don't find that behavior repugnant in any way, shape, matter or form. This is not about protecting the children as far as they're concerned: this is a strategic attack, timed during an election and the Republicans don't have to sit there and take it!

The Dems have a looooong history of worse abuse which is not to say one should use wrong behavior to justify other wrong behavior but it is the Democrats who have condoned that kind of behavior in the past. It's the Democrats who don't find that behavior repugnant in any way, shape, manner or form.

Barney Frank & Jerry Studds? This is not about protecting the children as far as they're concerned: this is a strategic attack, timed during an election and the Republicans don't have to sit there and take it!

I mean, not everyone's a terrorist, but when the U.S. is attacked by terrorists, it's not just the terrorists who celebrate. It's all the libs of the world. They're the terrorists' fans. Shouldn't they be called "terrorists' fans" instead of "libs"?

Fed up U tell her to go to her room & no tv/net coming out of room (other than school/eating/snacks) 4 two days. She gives U the silent treatment for those days & continues now after the punishment. U say __pls pass the salt to her & U r ignored. She encourages her brothers to do same. It works a bit. They are icy 2 U now. Dad's OK w/all this says (she'll come around). Tells boys 14/16 that they “HAVE 2 help her w/her homework since she's not talking to" me (?!). It all seems sick & dysfunctional. Your input?

a friend of mine got pulled over by a cop at about 11 pm for a cracked windshield. (small crack) and my friend got arrested for drugs and paraphenalia, etc in the car. the two girls he was with were let go. they towed the car and took him to jail. now his pub. def. filed for a motion to dismiss because he was stopped on bogus charges and they wouldn't let him get his id from his wallet under the seat. they searched the car and found drugs . the DA has postponed the prelim 3 times so far. i think he is trying to build a case against my friend and needs more time to gather evidence or something. why else would he keep postponing it? i don't really know much calif law, but something seems fishy to me? what do you think?

In response to President Bush's statement that Democrats are not fit to run congress. We need good people in office to check the balances of a deficit spending President.The Republican majority has not been good for this country. We have a war that over 60% of the population doesn't agree with and the government is using fuel prices to control the state of our economy. We need big changes across the country......

And if all those people were not necessarily terrorists now, could they eventually become terrorists later? They are Muslim, come from the Middle East and hate America with a passion.
Isn't it true that it's not all that hard for a Muslim who fits this description to become a terrorist?
