Politics & Government - 4 March 2007

Is it time to consider term limits or possible age limits in Congress. Both sides of the aisle have had some people who are really shouldn't be there. Strom Thurman was 100 when he left the Senate. Robert Byrd is sounding more and more like someone with dementia every day.

This is not a partisan question. Both sides are guilty.

I asked a question about cops being azzholes and 9 of 13 really mistrust cops. Even in real life a lot of people reffered to the police officers as scum of the earth. I know all police officer are not rogues because we would be in trouble as a society if they were but I wonder where all this resentment comes from?

I will start. During a discussion about immigration a girl said, "the United States sovereignty is but a mere illusion".

Ha! The policy implications of that would be astounding!

Scientists have identified a reduction in the polar cap on Mars, indicating that the red planet has global warming as well. I suppose Al Gore and fellow travelers think there are SUVs on Mars as well. In any case, they are being silent on this piece of Inconvenient Truth.

I am a married father of two children, a small business owner, homeowner and taxpayer. Our combined household income puts us in a very comfortable tax bracket, and we have a very sweet investment portfolio and retirement plan(s)
Unfortunatley for us, we have seen our financial picture dwindle considerably since 2001. We have been sent to the brink of ruin at tax time every year since 2003and this year will be the worst yet. I keep seing posts from Republicans stating that Bush has cut taxes and his domestic policy has been a positive economic generator for ALL Americans.

I have to ask - are Republicans just spewing out discredited hate radio talking points about the Bush economy or is there proof somewhere I simply can't find?
I am PAINFULLY aware that large mutli Corps have been raking in the money since 2001, and I could care less about the top 1%. I want someone to PROVE to me that the Bush era was as economically positive as Clinton's 8 wonderful years of prosperity.

SB 861 is the breed specific legislation regarding "unnamed" breeds of dog who are "known" to be violent/vicious(ie: pit bulls, rottweilers, german chepherds, etc.) mandating that they HAVE to be spayed or neutered. I am not a supporter of this bill, although I understand the point, but am curious if it was passed. Thoughts and opinions also welcome...

WASHINGTON – Greg Craig, a Washington super-lawyer with close ties to the Clintons, is supporting Sen. Barack Obama for President.

Craig was a White House special counsel defending President Bill Clinton in the Senate impeachment trial. A partner in the Williams & Connolly law firm founded by the legendary Edward Bennett Williams, Craig served as an adviser to Secretary of State Madeleine Albright and Sen. Edward M. Kennedy.

In confirming to this column his Presidential preference, Craig called Obama unique and added: “I’ve never seen anyone who has made the impact on people and on me.” He said he was impressed with Obama when he first met him at the home of investment banker Vernon Jordan, an intimate friend and supporter of the Clintons
