Should they have more sovereignty in their own affairs or does the Federal government reign supreme on the issue of sovereignty in your opinion? I understand the constitutional aspects of this issue, but which would you prefer?

What is your opinion on the REAL reason why Rumsfeld decided to resign?

2006-11-09 17:14:17 · 11 answers · asked by Searcher 7 in Elections

I'm just curious about this one. If you are a Republican with a family member in Iraq or other place and supported Bush in the beginning (Or just supported Bush, not necessarily Repub.), has this changed your opinion of Bush?

I am asking this because I'm curious, not because I am not a Republican. If I were, though, I really think it would have changed my mind about him if one of my loved ones had to go to war.

Recently, all 4 leading military papers called for Rumsfeld to resign or be fired. The Democrat majority won't be in until January yet they have already done so much more for our troops than the Republicans have done in the last six years - getting rid of Rumsfeld. It's obvious that if the Republicans kept the majority then he wouldn't have resigned, Bush even said that Rumsfeld wasn't going anywhere about a week ago. If this is what the Democrats can do before they are even in office, imagine what they will do when they get there! How about properly armored vehicles for our military?!

if you have a disease like cancer are you going to treated right away or wait until you are almost dead.? If you had ants invading you house are you going to wait until they reproduced or call the exterminator right away? If you have lice in your hair, are you going to wait for them to become more or get rid of them? YOU SEE IT IS TOO LATE!!!!!!! If illegal immigrants come to your country, are you going to get rid of them or let them be more? yes, you waited too long.

Clinton did absolutely nothing valuable in his presidency....obviously because he cant help but be defensive when someone confronts him. He straight-up lied on TV, and had to swallow his pride when he got caught in his nastiness. But Bush is just a good leader, whos aggressive in war, and is fighting hard to keep this country safe. Instead of sitting around in the oval office messing around with interns, Bush is making the tough decisions....yes the tough decisions that aren't easy to make. This is war, there are many things we don't understand. Let's face it, we don't know exactly what the intellegence knows. All we can do is trust, and not be so critical with a very hard war. Noone wants this, but it needed to be done. We have terrorist who HATE America. We arent weak....We are America...and we should fight hard for our freedom and safety...com'on guys!! Bush is the only person i would have trusted to be in office at this time of war...He's a true American.

This election was not won by anything the Demoncrats did right, in fact what could they have done with no plan at all.
No, it was lost because of what the GOP failed to do. This was a clear message to the GOP that they had better go through Puberty damn quick and get their balls back!
They have drifted from the foundation on which they stood. The foundation which Reagan established.
A foundation of Defense, Border Security, Family Values, Small Government, Strong Capitalism and a total disregard for Lobbyists and Special Interest.
Will they get the message?

These figures and deaths are continuing. What would satisfy victory in Iraq?

BAGHDAD, Iraq - A stunning new death count emerged Thursday, as Iraq's health minister estimated 150,000 civilians have been killed in the war — about three times previously accepted estimates.

Moderate Sunni Muslims, meanwhile, threatened to walk away from politics and pick up guns, while the Shiite-dominated government renewed pressure on the United States to unleash the Iraqi army and claimed it could crush violence in six months.

After Democrats swept to majorities in both houses of the U.S. Congress and Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld resigned, Iraqis appeared unsettled and seemed to sense the potential for an even bloodier conflict because future American policy is uncertain. As a result, positions hardened on both sides of the country's deepening sectarian divide.

How is it going to end?

How would victory in Iraq be determined?

The signing of a piece of paper, by whom!

Two years ago my town put up a memorial for all vets that are from my town. I added my dads name and where he served and what years. when they put it up we noticed that they forgot to put that he served in Vietnam. My dad was touched by the gesture, but i could tell me he was kinda sad that they forgot to add that. It was too late to add that info becase the engraved other names around his. I want to something special for him this year, something that says it all. any ideas?
