his popularity isn't that great anymore. more and more people are starting to oppose the war. Thats all george w. Bush has been focusing on is the stupid war on terror when in fact its causing more terror.

--to come up w/ an effective way to combat an uncivilized,and cowardly enemy who shoots at us from behind their own women and children; and sneaks up to bomb or otherwise murder unarmed civillians (which includes babies and the elderly)?
Does it make much difference 'where' we fight them, as long as we use our military,and we don't jeopardize the safety of our citizens by fighting here?--Are there any countries in the middle east that don't hate "infidels" or harbor terrorists, and who will not eventually become a threat to our people or to our economic survival?
We need to get experienced troops and air bases in the middle east ,however we can, in order to confront the problems that will most surely arise there.

I’d like to know who else feels the Duke Lacrosse accuser is telling the biggest lie that not even she can keep up with??? To many times now she has changed up her story just for it to show even MORE holes than she had to begin with when she first picked out the 3 schmucks she thought she could get rich off of faster. I would place my life savings on the fact that she wasn’t sure who her baby’s daddy was so in order to make sure she could take care of him/her she thought of a get rich quick plan.

I know most of you are thinking I’m heartless but I can speak from personal experience… when someone has raped you or even tried to do it but did not succeed , you DO NOT forget a single detail of what happened. I was 10 years old and a man tried to rape me and believe me I only wish I could forget some of the details. But I can’t…I never will and instead I use it to make me stronger and more determined to protect my daughter!

How hard would it be to gain citizenship to another country? Would it be allowed in the middle east at all?

If our government was set up to be a series of checks and balances with no one branch having supreme power, than why can't Congress and the Senate impede Bush's plan to send more troops to the Iraq war? It would seem to me the presidents' powers extend into the realm of totalatarism, with his unstoppable power to wage war without his country's support.

Okay be as honest and detail as possible. None of those one word answers. What would you do if you were president. Forget the fact that Bush started the war and wether you think its right or wrong. Just give me what you would do now.

We've had either a Clinton or a Bush in the White House for almost 20 years.

Do you think that's enough???

Does the capture and execution of one ruthless dictator justify the murder of 200,000 (the number killed before Saddams capture) innocent civilians and the destruction of ancient religious sites?

I am not asking about the current mission in Iraq -instilling democracy - only the previous one - capturing Saddam and stopping his WMD programs (which have since proved nonexistant).

He said on today's MSNBC "Carlson" that Bush's speech showed that he wants to open the door for another "back door war" (without consulting Congress or the Constitution) this time with Iran.

My husband is a C-130 pilot with the Air National Guard. Does anyone have any advice about how he could become an active duty pilot with the Air Force? We are not even sure if it is possible with all the cutbacks, etc. Thanks!!

Police are pressing charges against a local psychotic/bully who assaulted me and others.. MY testimony is necessary to convict. Trial is not for a year, and while I am able to take care of myself - I am somewhat concerned that I will be focus for psycho's rage.

At the same time however, this individual has been terrorizing the neighbourhood - including several women. My testimony, therefore could be invaluable in establishing a record of violence possibly prevent harm befalling someone down the road.

what would you do?

If a member country of the EU splits into two or more independant parts, are the parts automatically members of the European Union? Examples might include Scotland, North and south Italy, the Basque country, Belgium and the Walloons etc.

Ok i got a letter from a lawyer who obtained a judgment against me 6 months ago on behalf of a corporation which i have been paying until i went to hospital and could only afford to send them half of the agreement for that month.

The letter stated that i had to bring the balance up to date by Jan 20.

It said.. "IF you don't pay so and so by Jan 20..we COULD garnish your wage at $200 a month".

But that got me thinking, isn't it up to the judge to decide how much can be garnished and not the actual lawyer?? or am i wrong?

It is kind of confusing so i want some others opinions.

i would like to see the u.s. take a much more even handed approach in the middle east. if they would quit supporting israel and it’s apartheid regime, and work towards setting a realistic peace process, and holding israel accountable for it’s wrongdoings, (i.e.-blowing up peoples homes, seizing land to set up settlements and so on). you see, many arabs see the palestinian problem as the biggest issue in the middle east. and the relentless support for israel,( which the americans are getting nothing back, other than spies i.e. jonathan pollard). second, the middle east as a whole, the u.s. needs to stay the hell out of and we DEFINITELY need to change our foreign policies. because of our policies, we are creating the extremism in the middle east towards the west, where before was in very small numbers, and now is growing due the american operations in the middle east. let us not be deceived, america is not liked in more than the middle east. latin america hates us, the asians are not exactly fond of us and the europeans think of us as nothing more than morons. after we learn what diplomacy is and truly implement it (i know this is utopian), we need to most certainly focus on our domestic issues. the first being education and the economy. the outsourcing of jobs to foreign lands is alarming. in most developing or third world countries, children learn 2-3 languages including the mother tongue from the time they enter kindergarden and yet, we have kids that are fierce in video games and retards in school work. this worries me a great deal. i worry about our lack of health system. our economy…well that is a long story in and of itself. i could go on and on about what else needs to be done…this is just a few things.
but as for our position currently, we cannot stay and if we leave iran will fill that vaccuum and that is no good either. so either way, this is a problem. bush treated iraq as if he is in new orleans. he was warned before hand by iraqis that this will not go well and he did not heed the warnings, and now our military is getting killed and innocent civilians are being killed at an alarming rate. i can this for sure. we are going to create even more extremists because of our actions. and i do not believe the insurgents are “terrorists”. if we were invaded by another country for absolutely no reason and did to me what the americans are doing to the iraqis, i would fight back too. just some thoughts….your take may be diff.
beace.
