At present times what is more sensible choice one can take from following

CORRUPTION :( To remain silent and comply with corrupt and unjust action of a powerful and get work done effortlessly but end up self ashamed.

or

HONESTY :) To protest and refuse to comply with powerful and face delay, bear costs and might get hurt in the process but gain pride and self respect.

Hillary Clinton/Barrack Obama Ticket in 08? Not that I'm the biggest Hillary fan and not that I don't like her either.....but these two individuals represent and appeal to 2 of the biggest pools of non-voters in the U.S.
African Americans and Single Females are the 2 biggest pools of non-voters (and no, I am not ripping on either). If the last election was 51%-49% in the Republicans favor, Will the Republicans stand a chance running against these two in 08 with the potential of having these two pools of "non-voters" draining there votes into their ticket?

Don't let your personal beliefs answer this question for you. Think about it, non-voters that have a "reason" to come out and vote will determine the out come in 08. Is their another combo. that will appeal more to the non-voter and get them out and change the election?

OK, since he knew he would get caught, 17 years later he pays parking tickets. So, since he knows most Amercians find it a vile, disgusting, sickening habit only for the weak, he vows on 60 Minutes to quit smoking. What is next? How much more will come out (I mean other than his drug dazed undergraduate years he admited in his book.)

Limbaugh has criticized two things in trying to debunk global warming. Concensus, and, climate modeling.

Sometimes in science it is nearly impossible to "prove", with 100% certainty, an accepted idea, or theory. For example, many scientists by the 15th century felt the earth was round, but, with 100% certainty, went unproven until space flight allowed images of a round earth to be taken. It was a consensus of scientists that believed the earth was round prior to certainty being provided.

In such a case, it is usually that science hasn't developed the tools to measure a postulation with absolute certainty.

With global warming, there is no doubt among scientists that CO2 levels are at astronomical highs, and, the only question is, how much harm will be done to the earth if left unchecked.

The only way to handle the problem is with a climate model, an attempt to project into the future different outcomes. For now, there is little else science can do, people.

A young woman was about to finish her first year of college. Like so
many others her age, she considered herself to be a liberal Democrat,
and among other liberal ideals, was in favor of higher taxes
to support more government programs, in other words, redistribution of
wealth.

She was ashamed that her father was a rather staunch Republican,
a feeling she openly expressed. Based on the lectures that she had
participated in, and the occasional chat with a professor, she felt
that her father had for years harbored an evil, selfish desire to keep
what he thought should be his.

One day she was challenging her father on his opposition to higher
taxes on the rich and the need for more government programs. The
self-professed objectivity proclaimed by her professors had to be the
truth of course, and, that is what all the media said too, so it must
be true and she indicated so to her father.

He responded by asking how she was doing in school.

Taken aback, she answered rather haughtily that she had a 4.0 GPA, and
let him know that it was tough to maintain, insisting that she was
taking a very difficult course load and was constantly studying, which
left her no time to go out and party like other people she knew. She
didn't even have time for a boyfriend, and didn't really have many
college friends
because she spent all her time studying.

Her father listened and then asked, "How is your friend Audrey doing ?"
She replied, "Audrey is barely getting by. All she takes are easy
classes, she never studies, and she barely has a 2.0 GPA, even though
she gets other people to help her all the time. She is so popular on
campus; college for her is a blast. She's always invited to
all the parties, and lots of times she doesn't even show up for classes
because she's too hung over."

Her wise father asked his daughter, "Why don't you go to the Dean's
office and ask him to deduct a 1.0 off your GPA and give it to your
friend who only has a 2.0. That way you will both have a 3.0 GPA and
certainly that would be a fair and equal distribution of GPA."

The daughter, visibly shocked by her father's suggestion, angrily fired
back, "That's a crazy idea, how would that be fair! I've worked really
hard for my grades! I've invested a lot of time, and a lot of hard
work! Audrey has done next to nothing toward her degree. She played
while I worked my tail off!"

The father slowly smiled, winked and said gently,

"Welcome to the Republican party."

I am a military spouse. I had joined a fairly large military support yahoo group. But all they seemed to do was judge the newbies to the Military lifestyle. So after finally having enough of all they complaining & judgement back and forth I left the group and started my own. My question is, do the military spouses really need another support group out there? I mean really, there is such a flux of information out there what could one more group possibly offer?

The reality of asymetric warfare is that the enemy is free to use any means necessary to win while conventional armies are restricted. Why does the US agree to these rules? How can they win with both hands tied? No war has really been effectively waged since WW2. I agree that those laws prevent some of the most awful attrocities that have happened in the past but the fact of the matter is, war is hell but when you go to war, you should go to win.
