and there is no excuse for killing kids like these freaks with guns in the schools, plus sending out e-mails to children with sexual content (like the US congressman that was just caught) is now claiming he was molested as a kid? I mean come on people, if everone acted on their bad childhood experiences the whole world would be in a tail spin! so are you sick of the excuses? I AM!! and it's time to bring out the punishment of all those especially in govenrment that commit crimes and have thier lame excuses!!!

reality? Polls reflect what citizens think and their are tons of polls out there. Polls also fluctuate frequently. Or would you prefer a president who does not guide and follow polls but instead follows what he/she beleives in?

the backbone of this nation is sadly not a real backbone. this is why the illegal mexican aliens and muslims are slowly working their way in. no party in this nation has any backbone, and those who do are called "extremists", or "racists", or "bigots", etc, by the "politically correct" people who have no backbones. seems like if a white/christian/american tries to stand up for himself, then the rest try to accuse him till he sits down. as far as im concerned, no one deserves reparations for Americas past. especially since the mexicans arent the first to own the land. the Spanish had it after the natives. anyone who calls himself mexican therefore instead of "native" did not own that land first. who is the real slave in America?

Would you still vote for a democrat in congress if you knew that the dems and Soros had this information on Foley for over six months?

Would do you think of people who would sit on this for over six months and wait until right before elections to release it?

People are saying Hastert should resign because he knew about this scandal, if that is the case should all of the Democrats resign as well since they knew about this six months ago?

Do you find people who sit on this kind of stuff dishonorable? Is this the kind of person you want in congress? Seems like Foley is going to do the honorable thing and resign, maybe the Dems that knew about this six months ago are dishonorable and should not be in congress leading the country.

America wants honorable people in congress. I think all dems should resign as a result of this.

It seems that one persons terrorist is anothers freedom fighter. When a country invades another isn't this state terror? The Afghans were hailed as heroes and supported by the USA against the Russians and now there terrorists! Are we just playing with words? Are there double standards and we choose to use that which suits our needs the best.

This political quiz has been circulating around the net. Apparently, even though it's very short, simple, to-the-point, it's actually supposed to be a very accurate quiz as far as classifying where you stand politically. I think some people often THINK they are conservative, when they're really not -- or THINK they are truly liberal when they're really not. Take it...what were your results? Did the results surprise you? If your results DID surprise you - would it make you reconsider who you've been supporting all these years & perhaps seek out other candidates or political parties (even 3rd-parties) whose philosophy are closer in line to yours than maybe who you've been supporting all these years?

I'm not a democrat or republican. I'm a realist. I see things the way they are. His "War on Iraq" was bullshit! He went over there saying they had "Weapons of mass destruction" Right? They didn't find anything! Yet our troops are still over there! Then he decided to change the story saying Saadam treats treats his people cruel. That's like France trying to arrest Bush because America's gas prices went up! The point is when you're the leader of a country you can do whatever you want! Just like when Bush was on vacation went the World Trade Center got bombed! I wouldn't be surprised if George Bush planned on bombing the trade center to get more votes! I remember a speech he said, "America's at war, and if you vote for me I'll get us out." Now doesn't that sound like bullshit to you? Also, America has protected air space, if a plane goes off course the government is notified to take it down. Bill Clinton got impeached for cheating. Why doesn't Bush get impeached for ******* up the country

So all my friends are going to see the Killers on Nov 27th but I couldn't get a ticket.

I decided to check on Gumtree..... Someone had tickets but they were asking £70 each... after deciding that I would remember the concert for longer than I would remember the £70 I sent him an e-mail and he sent me his bank details.

I transferred the money and he said when he got it he would post the ticket special delivery. 5 working days later, when the money should have cleared he informs me that there is no money there.... I asked him to double check the details he sent me but no response for a few days now.... the money has cleared my account and I can't get it back. Maybe he'll get back to me in a few days but I doubt it...

I have his first and surname, e-mail and bank details... what can I do? I don't fancy putting this down to experience and letting him get away with ripping me off....

Funny isn't it. What would have happened if the US had not stepped in during WW2? Russia was getting their *** kicked and Europe basically belonged to Germany. What about WW1. Maybe we should've been like "Hey that's over their in Europe not over here in America." Or lets go current. Instead of trying to police terrorism we should jus leave it alone.
For those who don't support America as a nation police I wonder is you even support your own police. You see just as every town needs a police department to keep order in town, the same is said for the world. If the U.N will do its job for once and stop backing out, then America would not have to intervene in the affairs of other countries. What about the tsunami that hit a few years ago? Maybe we should have not been a police then and help those countries that were affected. What is the job of police officers? To protect and to help innocent civilians from those who seek harm.

Mark Foley announced today that he is a gay man and an alcoholic. This may not bode well for the Republicans during the upcoming elections. Foley admitted to carrying on perversive emails while voting on legislation. He also stated he only emailed while he was drunk. The implication is he voted on issues while he was drunk.
Other reports stated the Republican leadership in the congress was well aware of Foley's behavior. Some Republican representatives stated they had reported Foley's behavior months ago and thought the situation had been handled by the leadership. The affair seems to mirror the sex scandels in the catholic church.
Do you see this event having any effect on your vote in November, or do you see it as just an isolated incident?

Though China did start to privatize because they are smart and kept morphing into what worked, it's still not based in Capitalism. It's still based in Socialism.
