Well I'm getting the hell off this censored Yanswers anyway. So, I'll tell you. She gives short answers to older questions. Then she reviews those questions, when they go into voting, and votes for her own answers. Try it if you don't believe me. Oh yeah, she ocassionally gives a very, apparently thoughtful, answer. But for the most part, SHE CHEATS.

Newt Gingrich, speaking at CPAC, (the same meeting where Annie the shrieking sexophobe called Edwards a name that rhymes with maggot) blamed the residents of New Orleans' 9th Ward for a "failure of citizenship," by being "so uneducated and so unprepared, they literally couldn't get out of the way of a hurricane."
And he called for a "deep investigation" into this "failure of citizenship."
Here's the full quote:
How can you have the mess we have in New Orleans, and not have had deep investigations of the federal government, the state government, the city government, and the failure of citizenship in the Ninth Ward, where 22,000 people were so uneducated and so unprepared, they literally couldn't get out of the way of a hurricane.
And some on the right want this "fine humanitarian" to be President? Fat chance.

Gitimo - Torture the CIA has been legally protected though -
An Italian court has issued an extradition order for agents who kidknapped Italians and transported them out of the country and tortured them .....The Bush administration is afraid of the truth and won't let them go -
Why is the US government advocating torture - What is the difference between you and the terrorists you claim to be fighting
Why are you protecting the guilty -
Sounds very similar to the Nazi's to me

President George Bush addresses the nation from the Oval Office, March 19, 2003, to announce the beginning of Operation Iraqi Freedom.
"The people of the United States and our friends and allies will not live at the mercy of an outlaw regime that threatens the peace with weapons of mass murder."
The Senate committee found that many of the administration's pre-war statements about Iraqi WMD were not supported by the underlying intelligence.
A white paper titled "Iraq's Continuing Programs for Weapons of Mass Destruction" was released by CIA Director George Tenet on October 4, 2002, three days after the National Intelligence Estimate (NIE) on Iraqi WMD was released

I as well as others who have compassion for a people who want to try to make better lives for themselves are often told to "GO BACK HOME TO MEXICO!" Most of you who don't side with us assume we are Mexican not even considering that if we WERE Hispanic we could come from one of MANY different countries. To me that just shows how White America thinks. You only think about yourselves & your own personal interests & what benefits you. You assume that's how all others think too. That is why you assume we are Mexican. Why is it so difficult to understand that there are people in the world who care about others of a different race, others with their own personal struggles regardless of their skin color or the language they speak? Why must we be "MEXICAN" (white translation = illegal) just because we understand why Latin Americans want to come here & because we defend them being here?

He is coming home from Iraq and I am going to try to get a security pass to meet him at the gate. I have bought a semi-fancy dress and some heels to go with it. I asked a question about the dress earlier in Fashion and mentioned what the occasion was for and some people said it was too fancy!!! Am I wrong in thinking that this is a VERY special occasion and I want to get dressed up for my husband???
This is a pretty petty question, but maybe some other wives could give their opinion or some soldiers who have come home to their wives could give an opinion. Thanks! And please be nice. :)

California Bill Would Give Newborns $500 Savings Accounts
Thursday, March 01, 2007
E-MAIL STORY PRINTER FRIENDLY VERSION
SACRAMENTO — Every child born in California would get a $500 savings account to start building a nest egg for college or down payment for a home, under a bipartisan bill introduced Wednesday in the state Senate.
The proposal would cost taxpayers about $285 million a year.
A similar program has increased savings in Great Britain since 2002, but California would be the first state in the nation to enact it, said David Lesher, California program director for the nonprofit New America Foundation, based in Washington, D.C. A national savings program has been pending in Congress since 2005.
Under the bill, every child born in California after Jan. 1, 2008, would receive the money, regardless of their parents' income or immigration status. Recipients would repay the state's initial $500 investment once they turn 18.
The money may be used for three purposes: college or continuing education, a down payment on a home or a retirement account.
"This is the essence of equal opportunity. Every child, every person ought to get a head start," said Sen. Darrell Steinberg, D-Sacramento, who introduced the bill with Sen. Bob Dutton, R-Rancho Cucamonga.

About 566,000 children are expected to be born in California next year.
If families added $50 a month to the state's initial contribution, the savings account would grow to nearly $17,500 at 5 percent interest over 18 years. Steinberg said that would promote saving money in a culture that now is carrying record levels of debt and has the lowest savings rate since the Great Depression.
"It sounds like another give-away with other people's money — 'a chicken in every pot,"' said Jim Uhler, spokesman for The National Tax Limitation Committee in Roseville, a Sacramento suburb. "With the budget in the red again ... we have other pressing issues."
Dutton said the money would be "an investment in the child's future," said his spokesman, Larry Venus. "He looks at this as a hand up, not a hand out."
Steinberg said the state's $131 billion annual budget spends taxpayers' money on far more dubious programs.
"There's no question these are significant dollars," Steinberg said. "But look, we spend so much more on things that don't have nearly as much significant value."
The bill does not address what happens to the account if a child dies before turning 18.
