Please tell me all the reasons you think the US invaded, and if you have some proof, backing your reasons, well, that would obviously help your case.

Many people appear to be confused on why we are there.

If we enter a reccesion and we all have no money why dont we print more money. We could solve africas problems about no money for food and treatment and we could solve homelessness and low pensions and incomes if we just print off a couple hundred billion more pounds. I dont see why we cant because then the whole world will have a bit of money if all counties chip in.

This is going to take a bit of googling since it has been used so much in the last few years. A hint, it was over 25 years ago.

Also who started using it publicly in the last 10 years?

Do you think the first person taught it to the latter?

The answer will be posted when I pick the winner tomorrow.

As of right now they are eligible to collect except for any time they spend incarcerated. Without such a law--what stops them from being unethical since the risks of getting caught are so slim and the pay-offs so attractive?

I think it's easier to detach yourself from it because it's an ocean away, so you don't actually see people dying everyday.
IF we were actually to see our brothers, sisters etc...die in front of us, how different would our perspective be?

The guy probably looked the other way when people complained about Foley. If he would have been a democrat, would you support him. So why do you now?

In case you are wondering, I'm an independant. Which means I'm capable of thinking for myself, instead of needing a party to do it for me.

I am seriously asking this as a question. I don't believe that making abortion illegal is going to magically make abortion disappear. Plenty of things are illegal but they still exist, such as drugs. If abortions were made illegal, desperate women will use desperate measures to perform abortions. I believe that we would just return to the pre-Roe v. Wade days, when women used hangers or other sharp objects and unsafe back-alley abortionists. This can cause deformity or death to both the mother and the fetus. In my opinion, making abortion illegal will not stop abortion. It will only stop safe abortion. What do you think?

This was suggested on the radio this evening. National Lottery and executions rolled into one.

Problem: lots of people want capital punishment to be reintroduced for really serious crimes.

Problem of that: there will be miscarriages of justice.

Some say, that's life, that's justice, the loss of the occasional innocent life is a price worth paying for proper justice for those who really are guilty.

The idea: a referendum. One vote: are you for, or against, the reintroduction of capital punishment? But this is no secret ballot: your vote and your name are recorded.

IF the vote comes out in favour of capital punishment, then it passes into law, and the courts can have someone executed if they feel they should.

But at any time it might be proved that someone has been executed wrongly. So, if that happens, the names of all of those who voted in favour of capital punishment are put into a hat and one is chosen to be executed in retribution.

Price worth paying?

Baghdad battle bloodier for U.S. troops. Associated Press.
BAGHDAD, Iraq - The Iraq war could be heading to its decisive moment: a battle for the capital of Baghdad that already has turned dramatically bloodier for American soldiers and carries enormous stakes for the country's future. The USA is hurting badly.


At least 13 American soldiers have been killed around Baghdad since Monday — the highest four-day U.S. toll in the capital since the 2003 invasion.

That count is likely to rise higher as the U.S.-led forces step up their campaign to root out the extremist militias, death squads and terrorist cells that have turned the city into a collection of armed, ethnically divided camps.

No longer a limited security problem while the main war was being fought out west in Anbar province, the battle of Baghdad is turning out to be "a critical point in the Iraq war," says former Pentagon analyst Anthony Cordesman.

The USA is having a very tough time making headway.

It is a hard process to become a citizen, but its not impossible. The media has played this all up for sympathies to illegals. I know plenty of LEGALS who are going about it the right way. I know whole families that are here from Columbia, Mexico, Pakistan, Afghanistan, and India. Some of them had to wait over a year to even come here. But they did it. Some of them had to sell all they had for the costs. But they did it. When it was time for renewal of their visas, of course they have fear in their heart, but they don't try to get past the laws and do things wrong. They take time to get their paperwork together months before the visas expired. The illegals and their advocates are playing on sympathies. They don't just get told no all the time. They may get told no for a reason...like bad things on their records. So then they add to their criminal past and future by coming here illegally. And that is ok because they are poor or they are wanting work? Don't fall for that!
