I think Illuminati and One World Government is a treasonous act toward the U.S. Constition and I think that members of this secret society should be banned from holding a political seat of any kind (president, mayor, senator, congressman, etc.).

http://www.ipetitions.com/petition/ban234

Is anyone interested in signing? I think freemasoners and other secret societies that do not disclose thier iniciations and policies should aslo be included in the ban, but i did not include them on this petition. It's not about conspiracy theories, it's about the conservation of the U.S. constitution. How can anyone agree to One world government without demeaning or removing the U.S. government? that act alone is treasonry.

It has zero basis in fact.
Read this. I don't care what urban legend, rotten information emails you got from your possum-hunting redneck uncles, or pregnant at 13 cheerleader drop-out aunts, Barack Obama is not a Muslim.

Rice gets backing for Iraq plan
Saudi Arabian leaders have told Condoleeza Rice, the US secretary of state, that Arab countries are ready to back the new US strategy to stabilise Iraq.
Rice is expected to meet several of her Middle Eastern counterparts on Tuesday to discuss the plan which involves sending thousands more US soldiers to the country
"We agree fully with the goals set by the new strategy, which in our view are the goals that - if implemented - would solve the problems that face Iraq," Prince Saud al-Faisal, the Saudi Arabian foreign minister, said at a joint news conference with Rice in Riyadh.
But he also insisted that only the Iraqis could ensure that the plan succeeded.
"Implementation also requires a [positive] response by the Iraqis themselves to these goals ... Other countries can help but the main responsibility in taking decisions rests on the Iraqis," al-Faisal added.

WW2 was against the axis forces who had taken over Europe. Uniformed soldiers who had invaded and attacked countries all over the continent. Clear enemies with tanks and planes and infrastructure we could attack. They used familiar tactics and fought according Uniforms we could recognize we'd know which side was which.

The war in Iraq consists of the United States occupying one country, which WE invaded while guerilla warfare happens all around us. The country is in civil war, coming apart at the seams. There are no uniformed soldiers. No conventional warfare, it's a war of attrition with the lines blurred between civilians and fighters. Terrorism is the weapon of choice. Hit and run attacks etc. You can't tell who is the enemy and who is a harmless civilian.

That SHOULD remind you of a famous war from America's
past----BUT IT AIN'T WW2.

I know the Bush apologists are tempted to associate Iraq with an honorable and romantic struggle against evil like WW2, but it's just not honest

For all of those who support our troops. Do you think the outcome of this current conflict would be different if wed didnt have to follow the Geneva Convention. I just think its unfair. Kind of like me and you fighting but you get to use a knife and I dont. Unfair right?

Let’s say someone I know ends up in a life threatening situation, and I am the only one around, but I do not help, and this person dies. Would I be in any legal trouble?

It seems to me there are some good parrallels now with the 70's
An illegal unpopular war Iraq then Vietnam
A young hero to save the world Barack Obama then Robert F. Kennedy.
Not know what either one stands for Obama then Kennedy.
Being infatuated by a new face Obama Kennedy
Lying arrogant Secretary of State Rice Then Kissinger
A vice-president that thinks he is better then any one else Cheney then Agnew.

Has anyone else noticed this? Are there any you can add?

Think about it, everyone is getting pissed off at everyone else for one reason or another because they agree or disagree with the Iraq conflict. Now everyone is very pissed because we have just lost our 3,000th person. Well we've lost 3,000 in FIVE YEARS, and we only lost 60,000 in vietnam, and vietnam was 14 years, if this was at a constant rate, we could be in Iraq for another 95 years to lose a total of 60,000

Does this bug the crap out of anyone else?
How does this make you feel about both conflicts?
Why are so many people still trying to empeach Bush?
We had hippies/protesters then and now, whats different?
Why does everyone still have problems with Bush?
Are you a Left-wing or Right-wing?(to undestand your other answers)
