Politics & Government - 25 January 2007

I've noticed that Obama has become very popular in a realtively short time after he became Sen. Many Americans, including myself would like to see him be the next US President.

But when I saw the poll conducted by the Opinion Research Corporation, I saw that Hillary Clinton would be the candidate that the majority of Democrats would likely to support.

My questions are-

1. Would you like to Obama to be Hillary's running mate for Vice Pres?

2. Or, should Obama try to campaign for Pres? Who knows, in two years, he might have the majority od Democrats wanting to vote for him.

We as a people accept lies as common place today . Our leaders lie and play word games like using the word " Is " or redefining what sexual relations are .
Columbus brought death to the Americas and colonization killed millions of native inhabitants . We teach that the Indians where savage like beasts who killed and ate the flesh of the white man . While Columbus killed and fed natives to his dogs .
We have spent the better part of civilization killing others and defining them as evil . When will this stop . When will we accept that all of us are not the same . When will the lies end . I suppose we will never change because we do not like change or the truth .

will vote for her, always say something like, I don't know much about politics, or put the emphasis on the fact she is a woman? If you take away the fact that she's a woman, is there any reason to vote for her?

I have to tell you, like many Americans, I was starting to have my doubts about our President. But his, audacious, eloquent, and thoughtful speech TOTALLY WON me back. I am proud I voted for him, once again. Don't you guys agree. Didn't his speech kick some serious ***?

Here it is:

Question: Based on your own family's experience, what do you think we should do to improve health care in America?


Deleted Answer: I think we should stay as far away as possible from government takeover attempts like the one you tried in secret when your husband was president. Make no mistake. We are very well aware that this was your attempt to lead us further towards new world order by giving government huge controls over our individual freedoms. Your "concern" for our well being is laughable. We're on to you.

"Community Guidelines Violation" doesn't tell me a lot. What do you think this means?

By trying to promote thier beliefs to the masses they have committed crimes against their fellow man in the name of their supreme being!
None have definable or tangible proof of what comes after this life.
It's all speculation and "faith".
To commit murder and other atrocities in it's name makes it hypocritical and corrupt!
Is this what your supreme being really wants of you?
Or is this man's way to justify control over their fellow man?

We are winning this war, right? We don't need another plan do we? Bush has it handled doesn't he? His plan (whatever it is) is all he needs to win his war. Don't worry about what dems think...he sure doesn't.

We had this discussion in my college Government class and the consensus is that, yes, it's brainwashing but "everybodies doing it so why shouldn't we".
Any links or info?

From a Yahoo News story:

"Millions of Americans who earn the minimum wage have been waiting a decade for a much-deserved raise," said Rep. Rahm Emanuel (news, bio, voting record), an Illinois Democrat. "Incredibly, Senate Republicans would have them wait even longer."

Fewer than 500,000 people make minimum wage, according to the same story. And most of those are high school kids working part-time.

Why do Dems act like they are helping the poor out with this? It is such a PR bill it's not even funny.

Yes, some infants do survive them. Apparently, the US Congress overwhelmingly thought these infants should receive treatment, but support for the proposition is not unanimous:

Karzai claims the drugs are funding the Taliban, so why wont he eradicate all the crops? Could it be that Karzai is making so much money off the drugs he doesn't want to stop them?
