Politics & Government - 11 October 2006

The slogan, “Jobs Americans won’t do,” has now emerged as the presidential mantra for importing more foreign labor. The leader of the free world offers an assurance that Americans have graduated to a better life....

In fact, Americans do these jobs. Americans do these jobs with pride. Americans have thrived on these jobs over the centuries. The Americans doing these jobs don’t look any different. They wear the face of America. They do not shrink from work. Americans just resist enslaved wages and indecent working conditions. The soul of America is still found in our commitment to a work ethic. A presidential slogan to the contrary offends the soul of America.

All I hear and see now in politics is he said she said bullsh*t. They need to realize they work for US!! The people who voted for them. In their ads all thery do is attack one another and try to steal votes showing no respect. If they truly wanted what is best for this country they would put differences aside and work together to make it better. How long has the government been like this? I will never again vote for someone who used their money and not their brain to get where they are and I urge you all to do the same. If anyone agrees we should show them we mean business by not giving the Democrats or Republicans a single vote in the next election. Maybe we would get some real leaders with real American values, our values, and not the parties values in office.

Republicans, how does it hurt you if another person chooses to be homosexual? Why the hatred? This does not apply to all Republicans, for some are tolerant, but there are many on here, which show ignorance to the gay community. They have feelings and needs just like you. I bet if you came face to face with a homosexual, you would never spew the hatred towards them like you do on here. Or would you?

I am against nuclear weapons but it bothers me to think the USA thinks it is reasonable to have nuclear weapons and to expect other nations not to have them.Is it logical to have a dirty back yard of your own and at the same time to complain about your neighbors back yard?

Should they (at the very least) lose their non-profit status for sending edited e-mails to the FBI and therefore sitting on criminal activity until it was politically advantageous to the Democrats?

The link is a common thing from Liberals, yet do you ever hear about Republicans acting like this when Michael Moore or any other Liberal is speaking? Why is freedom to express yourself respected by Republicans, but not by a lot of Liberals?

Diplomacy: Former President Carter claims his brilliant peacemaking had it all solved in North Korea until George W. Bush's warmongering ruined it. He's forgetting a decade's worth of communist cheating.

Our 39th president, during whose tenure the Soviets invaded Afghanistan and Islamofascists came to power in Iran, was preaching on foreign policy Wednesday from the pulpit of the op-ed page of the New York Times.

According to Carter, "it is unlikely that the North Koreans will back down (from their nuclear weapons program) unless the United States meets this basic demand" — a declaration that we have no hostile intent toward North Korea.

The U.S. giving in to bloodthirsty tyrants: For Carter and congressional Democrats, that's always the answer that will bring us world peace. Carter now wants President Bush to go back on his pledge not to have direct talks, and secretly send someone like former Secretary of State James Baker to sit down with Kim Jong Il.

Our country owes 8.5 Trillion dollars, they both Dems/Rep spend money like it's free (because it is to them). Every bill that go up's is full of pork-barrell spending...I remember a bill to help rebuild and renovate school and 123 attachments of pay-offs to campaign contributors.

Then they both play the finger pointing game and blame each other.

We have these muliti-million dollar lawyers who are playing games with us all and draining this
country for their own selfish needs.

These people have no values, they believe in nothing except for themselves...they divide us with issues they don't really care about and tell us the enemy is the other party.

Tell me where I'm wrong........

What is meant by coercive date rape?
I was reading about date rape and found this definition "If a person says no and is still coerced or forced into having sex, then a rape has occurred." I understand what it means to be forced but in the case of date rape what do they mean by coerced? Can anyone explain or give me an example of what a coerced date rape is?
