To make the question clearer: Does the United States of America wants all the other countries in the world to be scared of the USA?

Don't get me wrong, I am an American, and I love this country, but how come we're the only country who is allowed to do things like testing nukes, etc?

Just curious.

I see a lot about Mexicans, but none about anyone else, not even black. Are mexicans the replacement for black people? Do people really think only mexicans are illegal here?

As a non executive director of ABB, Rumsfeld signed off on a 200 million dollar contract to sell reactors to N. Korea in 2000. What do you think about this.

Isn't this what preemptive war is all about? Going to war on a suspicion and a whim?? why the hesitation? Surely haliburton, shell, exxon and other companies the administration is completely unrelated to could profit from- I mean... uhhh... support our freedom. I wish bush could run for a third term, maybe then the earth could finally be rid of its infection of H. sapien the most miserable disease any organism has ever experienced...

I had a friend whom worked at a dealership as a bookeeper. Well my friend happened to work at the Berwyn, IL location. As the organization decides to centralize their offices; the Berwyn office moves into another dealership being in Chicago, IL. Anyways my question is that now these two offices are together, my friend is hispanic and the other bookeeper from Chicago is white, the white girl was making 16.50 an hour when my friend was making 14.75 an hour. Now that they merged together you would think that they would give the bookeepers equal pay since their position is the same and working under the same office manager but they dont give her a raise or incentive for commuting farther now. After months of commuting like this they fire her and give her a bullshit reason for so after over 10 yrs working with them. How can she go about this, can she file a complain? If so with who? Can she go to the EEOC?

I love President George W Bush. I think he's doing a great job. President Clinton had the first world trade center bombing, the cole navy ship, offered Osama Bin Laden and refused, and cut our military budget. Clinton passed an executive order limiting the contact between the CIA and the FBI so he's to blame for the failure of intelligence NOT President Bush. When I turn 18, Im going to volunteer for military service (with my boyfriend too dont tell his mother because she's anti bush lol) and we are going to fight for our country.

is going to help the US economy because the money will eventually trickle down to the poor. Explain this to me again? How many big companys do you know that pay their employees any more than minmum wage? How exactly does this money trickle from big buisinesses? If you ask me all it does is put an even bigger division between the rich and the poor in America. I'm voting for Marshal Mathers for president next election.

From all appearances, Dean/DNC are suggesting that the 12,000,000 illegal aliens should vote, and should vote for a Dem.

Do you think any election in the US should be called before citizenship is verified on all voters?

Why do you think police officers are using their Tasers to control people so much these days. They have other choices like pepper spray, and batons. Tasers are only supposed to be used when it is not bad enough for deadly force but it is a situation that needs something stronger than pepper spray, and batons. What do you think?

N. Dakota has a popular issue to vote on in November, making ALL abortions illegal unless the mother's life is threatened by the pregnancy. They say that the Supreme Court will overturn Roe v Wade with their views deeming women unfit to make the decisions over their bodies because they are under duress at the time. And this affects the precedent how?

I disagree with them personally, and in cases of rape and incest, a woman should have the right to refuse to bear the child of her perpetrator. As if the experience its self wasn't unnerving enough, making the woman raise the bastard child may cause her to relive the traumatic experience until the day she dies. A woman deserves the right to make a choice, backed by Roe v Wade, which is backed by the Constitution of the USA.

Is that why they have no economic sense? What are they going to do when the American dollar becomes worth less than a paco because they've ruined the American economy because they're greedy middle aged penny pinching meysers? Do you think they will feel bad when their grandchildren are left with nothing?
