Politics & Government - 22 December 2006

Why is it every time I'm driving on the road those guys in their gardener trucks pull along side me and stare and whistle? Also, why is it that when there is a teenager or woman walking down the street they all break their necks to turn and whistle as well. No matter how the woman looks. I'm so uncomfortable around these men, they disgust me. They should be arrested for whistling at these young girls, then deported.

That was a funny movie, and it rips on the Libs. It actually makes some good points about terrorism.

It seems like he is the only candidate who really have the balls to stop illegal immigration. Did you know that his father was a nazi soldier? i think he must really hate mexicans and that's something really good to stop the immigration from our south border. What do you think?

I am a democrat, a Christian, and everyone I know are as well. The Bible says "judge not least you be judged" Does it not? I believe in the American people, not just the rich.

You've said that the best way to gain peace in the Middle East is to nuke the area and annihilate the whole mess. But doesn't that just put you on the same level as Bin Laden, etal?

How can the west call itself "enlightened" when it's people use such spurious and undisciplined arguments?

Who are the dictators lusting for power now? And, after all, turning the area into glass and fallout hell for thousands of years is a sign of ultimate power, isn't it?

Look where it ranks in important categories like healthcare and education. Not so hot. Aren't countries like Canada and Switzerland just as good if not better? Is having the highest GNP enough?

The Democratic Party's color is blue. The Republican Party's color is red (very funny if you consider how ultraconservative they are and what the party colors were for the Soviet Union). The Green Party's color is probably green. What, if anything, is the recognized color of the Libertarian Party? I suggest orange in honor of President Yushchenko of the Ukraine.

Will the area ultimately have to revert to being governed (or at least overseen) by the United Nations, just to prevent the mass genocide that the conflicts seem to be leading up to?

What obligations do we, as concerned world citizens have to the people caught between opposing political views?

It's hard to give an honest opinion of dissent when you fear the consequences. I'm honestly paranoid thanks to the lack of personal privacy now. I have broken no laws. I have simply voiced my opposition to GWs politics. I fear my government. speaking out on the internet is a liability. The wider your audience, the greater the threat you are to changing the sleeping person's point of view to agree with your own.

On the Pine Ridge Reservation in South Dakota the Native Americans have the highest rate of unemployment in the nation, close to 80%. Yet, the Bureau of Native American Affairs continues to lease land to oil companies, coal companies and other energy companies that refuse to hire the Native Americans on whose land they are using. Pennsylvania Coal pays a Native American man $1 per ton that they shovel by hand, while an illegal alien using a skip-loader to load a truck gets $24 per hour and the U.S. government is doing nothing to stop these practices except stealing the monies that were supposed to accrue since they were placed on reservations in the first place.

Why has this case been around so long when there is no evidence of a crime and DNA has disproven the allegation? Is this a reverse hate crime, that is the players were charged because of their race?

We disagreed on money owed (by a friend who broke her neck-I was picking something up for her) & I started to leave, he said he would call the police, I said go ahead & walked out, pretty peeved, got in my car, looked onto the street for on-coming traffic, put it in reverse, stepped on the gas to back out and get on the road(I was parked against a curb), then out pops the guy from the back of my car, he was crouched down with a pen& paper taking down my license plate number-I couldn't see him until he jumped out. The car didn't touch him but the complaint was that I tried to run him over. I left & returned to my friend's house. She said she spoke to him & he said that due to his mental anguish of almost being run-over by me, he filed a commplaint for his "mental injuries". He also said he would drop all charges but it would cost me $400.00. I called him to tell him I'd be glad to pay him what was owed ($5.00 was all) and he said about the same as he said to my friend... that he would drop all charges BUT it would cost me $400. A detective called me today and got my side of what happened.
I would love to see everyone's comments on whether you think the case will go to trial or should I sue him and the place of business where he works and where this happened for slander and extortion.
