Politics & Government - 15 October 2006

There is a certain masculinity that I have noticed about the way some conservative females deal with political issues.

I just wonder if they take their lead from that scrawny man with long blond hair dressed as a woman. You know who I mean..

The American people are failing to recognize two vitally important issues: Saddam Hussein IS a Terrorist & the Iraq war was an extension of the first Gulf War.

After 9/11 President Bush said: If you harbor a terrorist or sponsor a terrorist, you are a terrorist! The American people applauded that concept. Saddam paid Palistinians to go bomb Israel

The liberals have gotten away with conveying that President Bush went to war in Iraq under false pretences: that Saddam had WMD's. Ignoring the fact that the world intelligence and leaders all agreed Saddam had them. The fact is, this was an extension of the first Gulf war because Saddam Hussein refused to comply to 15 U.N. resolutions pertaining to the first Gulf War.

It seems to me these two perceptions influence a lot of people's opinions of the war. This along with the realization that Iran is perpetuating the violence in Iraq and wants the destruction of Israel would make people know why Iraq is a stategic spot in the war.

This is a very serious true situation so please only accurate advise.

Say person A accuses person B of commiting a crime, and person B confesses, but person A no longer wishes to press charges against person A. Is there a way for person A to refuse to testify against person B, or to retract their testimony even after person B confessed?

Ok, if you answer a question on here and then the person uses your advice but it is wrong, can the asker sue the answerer for damages or in legal terms is the person answering libel?

In order to stay the course and be able to truly say "mission accomplished" and not have it be some PR spin. How many lives, how many years, and how much money are you willing to have the nation spend to say those words and have some meaning behind it? For example, if it took 8 more years, 5,400 more dead soldiers, 54,000 more maimed soldiers, and 14 trillion more dollars if that would be worth it. Or what numbers work for you?

In WWII or Vietnam, the death of a couple of hundred of soldiers in a battle was not considered a major casualty. Usually the reaction is "Damn, that's bad news." Now the death of 2 or 3 soldiers gets nationwide attention.

Why has the value of human life gone up so significantly?

I'm curious how many of you think that the world is messed up because it's run by men. Please minimize kneejerk responses motivated by past experiences with a bad boyfriend. I'm curious what you actually think. If I read pop culture right, then men in general are thought of as being basically as worthy of praise as Homer Simpson. But pop culture is often on the surface of society and not necessarily an indication of what's really on people's minds. I know there are a lot of false things that pop culture indicates about what I as a man apparently think and so I offer this survey in hopes to get insight into what you think.

I now avoid any Republican who is not discerning enough to identify the truth that is patently clear.

Political affiliations should not make one blind to the truth. Right?

Are Liberals lying when they say that Bush lied about WMDs.

Nancy Pelosi, Hillary Clinton, and Bill Clinton ALL believed that Saddam Hussein had WMDs in 1998. This was 3 years before Bush came to office.

Here are quotes of them saying so:

When a foreign national is arrested in the U.S., is the arresting officer required to contact the arrestee’s consulate/embassy if they so request?
Or perhaps it would be easier to think of it this way: If the police did not contact the embassy/consulate after the foreign national had requested it, would they be legally liable after the arrestee is released?

I watched a Fox News broadcast where military and political analysts rated Iraq to be far less of a threat than North Korea and Iran. Why is George W. Bush the last person to get the message? We made a mistake. We are in a civil war. It is time to get our troops out and put them in places that make strategic sense, such as South Korea, or just bring them home and try diplomacy for a change.

I live in Indiana and I am 18 years old. I have a great job where I
make plenty of money to support myself. I have a friend that is going
to let me rent for really cheap. I am ready to move out. The only
thing stopping me is that my school says that you cannot move out of your
parent's house unless they give permission since I am still in high
school. They said that I must be emancipated. I told them that I was 18
and they said that it did not matter. Parents still must give
permission. It is about 7 1/2 more months until graduation and I am ready to
move out now. Things are not going right at home and even though it is
not too terribly bad, it is bad enough that I need to get away from the
stress. My parents are very strict and will not let me leave. If I
did leave I am afraid they will find a way to make me move back in since
the school said I cannot move out. I thought in Indiana you could move
out when you were 18 since you were a legal adult no matter if you were
still in high school or not.

Please help me.

Respectfully,
Concerned
