I used to be a conservative. Now I am a liberal. I don't agree with everything the liberals say but some of the conservatives on here are just mean and nasty.

We all know how the Clinton adminstration downsized the military. But since the Bush administration increased military funds substantially, let's look at something more recent, relevant, and significant to United States citizens today.
The Bush administration has cut funds from everything you can imagine. Funding has been cut for hospitals, veterans' healthcare programs, pharmaceutical companies, schools, worker safety and health grants, cancer and AIDS research, public healch advocacy groups, fire prevention programs, flood prevention programs, airports, etc...
The list goes on. He has used this to fund his "War on Terrorism". Therefore, the extra funds have been wasted because he has only increased the terrorists' recruitment drive and viciousness.

I'm comparing Bush, one of our least popular presidents in American history, with Teddy Roosevelt, one of our MOST popular presidents in American history. Given that both presidents have rather forceful foreign policies and have no qualms about throwing their political girth around no matter what the public thinks, is Bush just really in the right place, but just in the wrong time? I'm imagining both presidents switching time periods, and Bush is doing a wonderful job while Roosevelt is getting lynched by an angry mob of American civilians. :P

Thoughts?

For those already signed up or who have already served, which branch did you choose and why?

I'm just curious because today one of my friends said the Marines are the best and most respected (he's in the Navy though). Does anyone agree? If not, which do you think?

I remember when Hillary asked her question, Conservatives were all rushing to attack Yahoo saying that Yahoo would never let a Republican ask a question.

Now that McCain has asked his question, is it safe to say at least one organization has been taken off the "liberal conspiracy" list?

A school child could respolve the Iraqi war issue. The solution is to LEAVE, PERIOD.

BUT, to explain what I'm ASKING, the Dem's are stalling for more time for the Republicans to do whatever it is that they set out to do in the first place. By not offering any sort of ideas as to how to exit Iraq, the Reps get to point fingers and say the Dems have no ideas so it will be business as usual. The STUPID masses will think "Hey, at least the Dem's are trying to get us out!" WHAT A JOKE.

The Dem's are stalling FOR the Republicans. They take turns doing one another's dirty wirk while YOUR CHILDREN pay with their LIVES.

I am so sick of THE STUPID MASSES who tolerate the OUT AND OUT LIES from our elected officials. THEY MAKE ME SICK TO MY STOMACH. In fact, I am beginning to wonder if most people are truly STUPID.

What do you think?

They are correct (to a point) when they mention dissent as one of the most important of our freedoms and responsibilities. That being said, the concept of Loyal Opposition means that while they are free to disagree with policies of the sitting government, to openly call for defeat goes beyond dissent. It is sedition, plain and simple. Does nobody on the left see this?

Hi! I have just now gotten back from the Greenwood Library {in Seattle} from a showing of parts of videos about the 911 conspiracy -- a sort of compilation of clips from different videos by different people. Before today, I was skeptical -- I would have gone so far as to say that Bush & co. KNEW something in advance, and decided it was in their best interest to DO NOTHING -- that's as far as I thot it reasonable to go.

NOW, however, after viewing those clips -- especially of No. 7 going down -- we have all seen, over & over, clips in the news of hi-rises going down, it's always fun to watch -- and building 7 went down EXACTLY the same way, you could see it in all the clips, over & over, from all different angles. There was NO debris on the roof; and the fires burning were such as SHOULD have been able to have been put out by sprinklers.

Furthermore, one of the people involved SAID that "they had decided to PULL the building" -- THAT IS A TECHNICAL TERM USED BY DEMOLITION PEOPLE AND IT MEANS "TO DEMOLISH"! This was after the investigation started. It was NOT, of course, picked up by any of the news media. You & I never heard that, did we? It's sensational! a confession!

BUT, wait -- there's more! In order for a building to go down in the neat manner we have all seen in numerous news clips of numerous buildings, IT TAKES EXPERTS DOING DAYS, MAYBE WEEKS OF CAREFUL WORK TO PLACE THE EXPLOSIVES JUST EXACTLY RIGHT, etc.etc. If No. 7 went down just hours after the twin towers -- THAT MEANS THE EXPLOSIVES WERE ALREADY IN PLACE DAYS BEFORE THE EVENT!!!!!!! You can imagine what THAT implies! They can't just run in there, set a few explosive charges in a couple of hours, and have the building go down in that neat, very professional way!!!!!

There is evidence that one of the entire floors of that building was used as a "command center" -- it, only one floor, was bomb-proofed, HAD ITS OWN AIR SUPPLY and its own water supply, and had glass installed that was able to withstand 160-mile-an-hour winds. Only one floor. That had a good view of the other twin towers. There are in existence the records of this work being done and paid for.

The idea was, that this building, no. 7, was used to "command" maybe drone airplanes? or supervise the whole thing anyway, and THAT WAS WHY BUILDING 7 HAD TO BE DESTROYED -- TO DESTROY INCRIMINATING EVIDENCE !

NO STEEL-FRAMED BUILDING IN THE WHOLE HISTORY OF ARCHITECTURE HAS EVER GONE DOWN FROM A FIRE!!!!!! That is impossible. Never happened before, never will happen. If it WERE possible, every office worker and hi-rise apartment dweller ought to be concerned!

Liberals and democrats alike launched a mid term election campaign based on their disgust with the war in Iraq. Some even went as far as to apologize for voting to support action against Iraq. So now what? What now democrats? WHAT'S YOUR PLAN NOW THAT YOU'VE WON THE VOTE?????

"Swept into power by voters clamoring for an end to the war in Iraq, Democrats have seen their efforts falter under a reality more complicated than they found on the campaign trail. While the public is fed up with Iraq, there is little consensus over what to do." -yahoo news http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20070226/ap_on_go_co/flailing_over_iraq
