A. Vote for a Democrat
B. Vote for a Republican
C. Vote for a person of another party or an independent
D. Abstain from voting
A, B, C, or D only. Obviously this is non-random and unscientific, so PLEASE don't make things more complicated.

If your answer is somethig like "I don' vote based on party, but issues," then don't answer, or simply choose a person from any party who best represents your views AT the moment and choose A, B, or C....

I get a real sense of security from Reid and Pelosi, and the rest. I was so scared after 911, every day was a living nightmare. Thankfully, the dems are in power, and now I can get a good nights sleep. Does anyone else feel this way?

I know it's not all of Iran and some people from other countries believe it too (the Holocaust never happened), but what do they think about Hitler? Did he never exist, or was he just a power obsessed man that tried to conquer Europe which resulted in WWII? Some of them probably blame WWII on the U.S.

IDue to term limits, George W. Bush cannot run again but if there were not term limits and President Bush ran for a third term, I would vote for George W. Bush again if he could run for a third term and I hope he choose his brother John Ellis "Jeb" Bush as his running mate and I hope that Bush wins a third term because after all, he is the Greatest President Ever and has great compassion and care for the American People.

when we can't solve our own right here in the U.S

*Countless numbers of homeless people
*Countless numbers of murderers and pedophiles who aren't punished properly
*Police brutality
*Numerous amounts of job openings but no one being hired for them
*Discrimination going on in the business world
*Deficit in the U.S
*Illegal Immigration
*Money being taken away from public school systems
............the list goes on and on

For those who do or did support the war........don't you think we have enough problems right here in our own country without going to solve another country's problems?

Their spouses work as registered lobbyists - how can they not be influenced by someone they spend years with.?
Is it a total non-issue? Some lobbying accomplishes things like better health care for the elderly but doesn't it give people like drug companies an unfair playing advantage?

I don't beleive It is not just a Democratic or Republican issue but I welcome opinions -

Senator Byron L. Dorgan (D-ND) - wife
Senator David Vitter (R-LA) -wife
Senator Kent Conrad (D-ND) - wife
Senator Ted Stevens (R-AK) -wife
Senator Elizabeth Dole (R-NC) -husband
Rep.Ed Perlmutter (D-CO) -wife

Is there a way someone could enlist right out of High School (Infantry) in the Marines, and while enlisted earn either an Associates OR Bachelors degree in teaching?

Like how long would it take, how much of it would have to be online, how much would the Marines pay for?

my wife she should leave me and have a real life. I can't find a job I can't run a business. I wish I had gotten the death penalty. Thats what they do in other countries: get cuaght with drugs and they put a bullet behind your ear. I wish they had just killed me it would have been more humane.

attacked us and roam fairly free along the Afghan/Pakastani borders? As Hillary Suggested today? If you disagree please be resptful, I have sent 2 of my sons to fight in the war, also 2 of my son inlaws are in active military and I served in Nam. I personally blieve that we should of sent the large force into Afghansatn and defeated and slaughtered Bin Ladden's thgs, who we trained years ago, and if asecond counrty needed invading it would have been Saudi Arabia for supplying the high jackers, and continual funding of Bin Ladden, via his families business!

Since Bush made his idiotic speech about sending more troops, violence has esculated.. over a hundred yesterday.. 35 more today...does he even have a clue. Does he not realize that in his randem act of invading Iraq to get Sadaam for daddy, all he did was start an all out civil war. The Iraqis are no better off... and about 30,000 more of them are dead. just what has he proven. I know Haliburton is happy, daddy is happy.. but what about our ppor soldiers and what about the helpless Iraqi people.. just how does he think he will ever fix this mess he created?

What do you think about this ?
Is this the correct path for the US ?

Last Wednesday, Senators Dianne Feinstein (D-CA), Larry Craig (R-ID), Ted Kennedy (D-MA), Mel Martinez (R-FL), Barbara Boxer (D-CA), and George Voinovich (R-OH) introduced the first guest worker amnesty legislation of the 110th Congress. Entitled the Agricultural Job Opportunities, Benefits and Security Act of 2007, or known by most as the "AgJobs" bill, this legislation would allow illegal aliens who have worked in the agriculture sector for a portion of the past three to five years to apply for temporary legal status and then permanent resident status, putting them on a path to citizenship. Families of the 1.5 million illegal aliens receiving guest worker status would also be eligible for legalization (and eventual citizenship) if they are already living in the country.

Seriously, what is so great about affirmative action?
I guess it's good if you're black or arab and don't feel like working hard in school som you can still get into college.
These people scream-"equality"-when aren't my equal rights being violated if someone else who does a half-job takes my job?
Thoughts on this? Don't call me a racist either, I'd just rather see the guy who deserves the job get it.
