If the Iraq war is/was about oil?

Why aren't our gas prices at 80 cents?

Basic supply and demand tells us that it would be that way.

You Decide 2008 - Hilary Clinton running for president?

Although many of us, including me, knew that she was running for president, did it come as a shock to anyone? What do you think of the possibility of the first female president? There has only been one female candidate EVER in the history of US elections, and she was beaten by her male opponent. Do you think Hilary's gender will have any effect on the outcome? I hope not, but there's always that small group of people that think a woman president would ruin everything.

I forget what it's called, but has anyone even seen that show where there's a female vice president and after the president is assassinated SHE becomes presdient?

What has Hillary Rodham Clinton done for New York, that I should vote for her as persident??

I know that all will answer, but specify if you are indeed from New York. I know that Women have rights and women have come A LONG WAY, but the image of a woman as president just dosen't seem right according to what our forefathers based this country on. Being a versitle women I still submit to my husband and I respect him for the leader that he is. He is our guardian as the family leader, and he has protected us in the leadership of the family. I just can't imagine Hillary as the tough, rough pants leader of the country. Sure she can be firm in her dealings with other countries, but will they believe that she will be there to whip there butts when they try to pull another 9-11????

How much does Fox News donate to Fisher House?

Just wondering, because CNN auctions off pretty much all their vehicles at some point to Fisher House. (Fisher House is a charity who donates to wounded troops and troops who are struggling once they return home.)
For news on CNN's most recent donation to Fisher House, check out this site.

Now, what about Fox News?

Do you think that the federal government should have less power?

and let the states decide on the majority of the issues?

I.E.

drug laws
social service programs
immigration
education
and so on

I think that all of these issues should be back in the hands of the people and NOT lobbyist and people at the federal level.

If all the people in CA want illegal immigration...so be it...then it would be their problem...if none of the people in AZ want illegal immigrants then there would be STATE laws preventing it.

If the people in AL want marijuana legalized...then as a state it should be..but if the people in TN don't want it then they can vote against it.

and again so on and so forth.

Our state taxes may go up a tad to compensate for the federal funding that they might not receive...but then our fed taxes would also go down since these would be at the state level now.

I purchased one mobile phone with free mobile set and free line rental (by way of redemption).By the time of purchase they agreed to give all the line rental by 5 equal installments. For my first installment I sent my paid bills to the dealer but they rejected my request stating that I did not sent the invoice/welcome letter.It was not stated in the agreement.Any way I sent the said invoice also but no reply. I would like to know whether I can lodge a complaint to any appropriate authority or cancel my 12 month contract after five months.

What is Bush going to say about immigration on Tuesday?

Here is what FAIR thinks:

"What we will hear from President Bush on Tuesday will be a radical immigration agenda that is designed to satisfy business's demands for an endless supply of low wage labor, but one that will represent a looming disaster for the vast majority of Americans," predicted Dan Stein, president of the Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR). "For Americans who work for a living, who pay taxes, send their kids to public schools, care about the environment, or who believe that a nation is more than just a random collection of people who happen to share a piece of geography, what the president will call for will be the undermining of their hopes and aspirations."

Who is for 80% reduction in crime?

80% less muggings, burglaries and murders
80% reduction in incarcerated people
80% savings in Policing
80% savings in court proceedings

*(How did I get to this figures? It's a fact that 80% of prisoners are in jail for Drug related offenses, therefore all other 80% figures derive from this known fact.

How do we do it?... by legalizing, taxing and regulating all presently illegal drugs.
Start voicing your enlightened opinion on the subject and politicians eventually will find it convenient to support Drug Legalization. . Our national security is at stake since Terrorists main source of income is trafficking. Let's do it before it's too late.

Should we expect more political action from the Blacks who have attained true power in America?

Do they have a responsibility to elevate and educate other blacks in America? Or would you say no; we should not expect anything. Are they not the model by which all other black potential is judged by whites? White People seem to embrace Sen. OBAMA, can't the argument be made that all educated blacks have the same potential.
