Politics & Government - 18 January 2007

I found an article about what I would consider the best possible candidate the Republicans could run to counter the current liberal trend in the Republican party.

Tancredo is the representative for parts of Colorado and I'd definitely vote for him over McCain, Rudy or any of the RINOS that seem to be the only thing the Republican party is throwing out there. Tancredo to form exploratory committee for presidential run
— Colorado Republican Rep. Tom Tancredo, an outspoken opponent of illegal immigration, said Tuesday he will form an exploratory committee this week for a possible presidential campaign but does not plan to give up his House seat.
After making a weekend trip to Iowa, home to the first nominating caucus in January 2008, Tancredo said voters there told him other presidential candidates don’t share their views.

Iran warns it's ready for nuke standoff

TEHRAN, Iran - President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said Thursday that Iran was prepared for any possibility in the standoff with the West over its controversial nuclear activities.

"Today, with the grace of God, we have gone through the arduous passes and we are ready for anything in this path," state-run television quoted Ahmadinejad as saying Thursday.

Ahmadinejad also denounced critics of his nuclear diplomacy at home, saying that they will not affect his government's handling of the nuclear issue with the West.

Conservatives and reformists have in recent weeks openly challenged Ahmadinejad's hard-line nuclear diplomacy tactics, with many saying his provocative remarks are doing more harm than good.

The U.S. and its allies accuse Iran of secretly trying to develop nuclear weapons, an allegation Tehran denies.

but as a white person I have to mind my p's and q's to ensure that I do not say anything to offend them?

Why can every other race say anything they want about whites but we can't say anything about them?

Could I call a lawyer and sue? Can I call the ACLU?

Can I form a group for the rights of white people (or people without color)?

And let's not say anything ridiculous like "yeah join the KKK" this would show your intelligence and show that you are COMPLETELY missing the point.

Not being radical or inflamitory, but if the results of a CEOs crimes result in many hourly workers loosing every thing they own and causing wide spread loss of money and 401ks and forcing people in their senor years to still have to labor until death, I would say they deserve death not only as punishment but deterent.

We are `as the west` at war with those who believe we are the infidels. I know this is partly because of our awful foreign policy. However - my view is that those of us who quite like been able to say what we want, eat McDonalds, have meaningless sex and parody others in cartoons/books/films etc we should all move to another planet and let those who are left fight it out between themselves? Then at least we in the west could just argue over economics instead of declaring war with those who we don’t like. Life is just too short for the nippy terrorists - what do others think?

I strive to better myself in all ways, and what better way than to model myself after such a fine, upstanding man, the President of our country, a great fearless leader, the moral compass of our nation, a respected statesman, a great orator, a successful businessman, and now our finest president. What qualities should I develop to follow in his footsteps?

rang his office for some clarification and was told he would ring back. He did not. This happened a further 4 times + I also hand delivered a letter containing my queries. To date I have not had any kind of communication from him. Is this normal practice for solicitors or is it a case of no news is good news?

Large corporations save money by buying in bulk and giving all their business to limited suppliers. If consumers did the same, they would be able to pressure large corporations to get better deals. In turn this would help corporations to function better with less competition but of course not reduced to monoplies. They can cut costs by reducing the excessive wages of executives, not to make them puapers but just trim the fat. This co op would be through the internet and worldwide.
corporations see this as the only way to operate so why should it be any different for everyone else.
