The Bush administration has been;
Wrong about WMD's
Wrong about troop levels required in Iraq
Wrong about the costs of the war
Wrong about oil revenues paying for reconstruction
Wrong about being greeted as 'liberators'
Wrong about the level of sectarian violence

Why should anyone believe this administration now about the latest surge strategy in Iraq?

If there are any counties which offer voluntary authenasia do they offer it to the sick people only or do they offer it to someone who wants to die irrespective of weather they are sick or not. If there is such a country could you give deatails of such country.

Canada the peace loving, multicultural country has a long tradition of providing safe haven to refugees from all over the world-fleeing violence and starvation. Canada's large population of immigrants are once refugees, who left their home lands to save their lives and came to Canada in search of better life for them and for their loved ones. Now the Iraqis displaced and effected by the turmoil back home, are expected to flee their homeland and arrive at the Western countries as refugees. If U.S.A toppeled sadam's regiment and invaded Iraq with the promise of better future for Iraqis, why U.S.A exporting those Iraqis to Canada and to the other Western countries as refugees? U.S.A invaded Iraq, destroyed it and now expecting the Iraqis to seek asaylum in Canada. Do you believe that Canada is capable of having a large amount of refugees from other parts of the world and helping them with the current economy of this country?

obama has kept a low profile, but enough positive influence that not many people can say bad things about him. out of nowhere he became the democratic poster child. as a resident of illinois, im sorry to say i really have no clue as to where he came from, and what he has actually done. i've kept up on most political happenings and truely see no reason as to why this sudden boost of popularity. i give him kudos to the fact that he seems to have a great deal of self respect and respect enough for his constituents to conduct his political carreer thus far in a dignified manner, unlike many other politicians, this comming from me, a conservative. my concern is that he truly seems to have a political momentum and charisma. this makes me think that his sudden national attention could be a deeper ploy in his political agenda. i don't trust politicians that are overwhelmingly popular, one because they have the potential for too much influence and two because politicians always piss someone off

As Senator Barack Hussein Obama enjoys superstar status within the news media, a background check of the 45-year old Illinois Democrat revealed that he was a student in a Muslim madrassa in Indonesia and that he was raised by his stepfather as a Muslim.

While his defenders are calling this an attack based on fear-mongering, there are those who believe this is troubling news since Obama never mentioned this information in his book.

Some observers believe Sen. Obama himself used his revelation about drug use -- including cocaine -- as a smokescreen to hide his Islamic background.

According to Democrat Party sources, Obama spent at least four years studying at the Indonesian madrassa.

Does this make you dislike him more, less or about the same?

Would we be welcome with open arms if we were stealing jobs,commiting crimes,refusing to learn and speak the language,being a burden to a welfare system that is in dire straights and just plain screwing up another country.Lets put the shoe on the other foot and remember Im talking about mexico and not other countries where the US government has made some poor decisions and terrible choices that the average American citizen has no control over except to protest and vote.

I tell all the people, that hate America, as I do. The police just stormed intoi my home, the POLIC said that because my door wasn't locked that they had to right to. There was a marijuana pipe in my home, and even know it wasn't mine, threatened to arrest me if, if I didn't sign their ticket. And just to let the rest of the world know (since they hold us resposible--and we just want the rest of the world to SAVE US), Our driving, traffic, whatever tickets you want to call them, prohibit us from any job that isn't minimum wage. It differs state to state, on Ohio, here, $5.15/hr. (and oh so preceding to $6.85/hr.) And rent is generally $500.00 a month. You do the math. So stop bitching about Americans being ****. Because we are enslaved. SO STOP HATING US AND HELP US.
We didn't even vote for Bush, neither term! His father was the head of the CIA before becoming president. Everything has been a lie. Why don't you save Us?

It seems that way, doesn't it. The whole thing stinks of fear-mongering propaganda. People who preach about it remind me of AL Gore when he preaches about global warming or the y2k crowd. What do you think? Take a look at the links below.

Americans are the reason why democracy has flourished throughout the world. We are of every race and denomination. We seek to make the world safe. We are the reason why Japan, Germany, and Italy lost the war... yes others did thier part but who finished the Japanese and also came just in time before the fall of England. We are the first to arrive in a natural disaster. We fight the wars while others scoff. Then when we sit back and do nothing... others scoff. Its always the US's fault. Well get it together people... if not for the US... you wouldn't have freedom.
