If a person does not pay taxes in America, why should he or she be able to draw on SS, especially since SS is in danger of not existing for current working, tax paying Americans?

Politics, Power & Energy

In the early 19th century powered machines such as boats, trains etc… were powered by charcoal energy. Later, petroleum had been discovered as a new source of energy and used much more widely. Since then petrol became a symbol, of power and wealth. Therefore the western countries occupied productive countries in the Middle East, North Africa, and so on to get more energy for their growing industries.

After a while and under the population’s resistance to occupation, the occupants were forced to retrieve. But they left corrupted governments, on small states that they divided, to rule on their behalf and to look after their interests. Until now, those governments have western support and protection.

Everyone says Bush has lied about Saddam having WMDs, and therefore should be impeached. So, why then, under Clinton, did the queen of liberalism herself state the following:

"As a member of the House Intelligence Committee, I am keenly aware that the proliferation of chemical and biological weapons is an issue of grave importance to all nations. Saddam Hussein has been engaged in the development of weapons of mass destruction technology which is a threat to countries in the region and he has made a mockery of the weapons inspection process. "

It is a felony, punishable by 5 years in jail to threaten the president of the United States, in earnest or in jest.

Really don't do it.

. Violating the United Nations Charter by launching an illegal "War of Aggression" against Iraq without cause, using fraud to sell the war to Congress and the public, misusing government funds to begin bombing without Congressional authorization, and subjecting our military personnel to unnecessary harm, debilitating injuries, and deaths.

2. Violating U.S. and international law by authorizing the torture of thousands of captives, resulting in dozens of deaths, and keeping prisoners hidden from the International Committee of the Red Cross.

3. Violating the Constitution by arbitrarily detaining Americans, legal residents, and non-Americans, without due process, without charge, and without access to counsel.

4. Violating the Geneva Conventions by targeting civilians, journalists, hospitals, and ambulances, and using illegal weapons, including white phosphorous, depleted uranium, and a new type of napalm.

8. Violating U.S. law by using paid propaganda and disinformation, selectively and misleadingly leaking classified information, and exposing the identity of a covert CIA operative working on sensitive WMD proliferation for political retribution.

9. Subverting the Constitution and abusing Presidential power by asserting a "Unitary Executive Theory" giving unlimited powers to the President, by obstructing efforts by Congress and the Courts to review and restrict Presidential actions, and by promoting and signing legislation negating the Bill of Rights and the Writ of Habeas Corpus.

They hold candle light vigils and piss and moan outside of the prison of a person that is going to die YET on flip side of their diseased coin they would not bat an eye when it's time to murder an unborn baby. They are the true baby killers.
Pro Choice - is that pro choice for the unborn too ? See pro choice is just an fancy name for the people who hate the word
murder in my humble opinion.

What did he do wrong? Saddam Hussein WAS trying to get WMDs, so invading Iraq was probably a good thing. He tortured terrorists, which is good. So what has he done wrong? So whatever he has done wrong, shouldn't we rally to support him instead of defeating him at home and doing the terrorists' job?
