Barack Obama was not born in America or on a US Military base, how can he become President of the United States when it is very clear you must be a natural born American citizen? Plus there is proven evidence that supports he was trained along side terrorist that helped in the 911 tragedy. This makes him also a supporting terrorist. Plus are you going to vote for him? Becuase I dont even want to think about what America will come to if he is elected to serve our Nation and community. I, as well as many others, think that he will put America in the trash can, if he isnt shot at inogoration. Answer my question, as well as give your opinion on the others.

In 1962, there was a plan in place to stage a false-flag operation to generate support for a war against Cuba. The plan might have succeeded if not for JFK, who reportedly scratched the plan. One of the proposed plans was:

" Firebombing and sinking an American ship at the Guantanamo Bay American military base—reminiscent of the USS Maine incident at Havana in 1898, which started the Spanish-American War—or destroy American aircraft and blame it on Cuban forces. (The document's first suggestion regarding the sinking of a U.S. ship is to blow up a manned ship and hence would result in U.S. Navy members being killed, with a secondary suggestion of possibly using an unmanned ship and fake funerals instead.)"

Thankfully, this operation was never carried out, but its now known that elements of our gov't. are willing to kill americans in order to generate support for war.

Now ask yourself this...Is it POSSIBLE that this happened on 9/11?

A question to any non Americans here- to Canadians, Europeans or British- who malkes more sense to you- the right wing Conservitives or left wing liberals in America? It seems fairly obvious to me that the liberals are the ones that hate freedom- I just want to see if the rest of the world can see the obvious, that it is the conservitives on the right that are fighting for freedom.

I think they were trying to get another pawn to control the Middle East. Israel wasn't enough for them. After all, the Middle East has lots of oppressive countries, so it's easier to get Americans on the government's side. The U.S. contains 4% of the population and consumes 25% of the world's oil, so naturally, they would want the Middle East. The government won't spend trillions of dollars just to remove a dictator and free Iraqis. There must be something more. What was it? I would say imperialism, pretty much.

Looks like if Western countries don't pull off the 'victories' the press hoped would happen in ten minutes, they decide to take it out on wounded soldiers who return in order to be operated on. In the UK, we now have such people who are being made to wait to be operated on. And if some have been killed by 'friendly fire', never mind - it is a war, not a playground bust-up. No wonder the awol amount has risen. Some moronic Member of Parliament a fortnight ago decided to tell us black soldiers were ill-prepared for fighting, but it seems to me the government doesn't like ANYONE in uniform. Would they respect soldiers more if Iraq was taken as easily as the Falklands was?

Kucinich Has a Chance to Make a Historic Move and to Stand Out as a Presidential Hopeful

So far impeachment is a verboten word among Democrats in Congress, where House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) and the party leadership have made it clear that anyone who steps out of line and submits a bill of impeachment will be punished. The leadership has even gone so far as to attempt--with considerable success--to crush grassroots efforts to introduce impeachment resolutions in state legislatures (such pressure on key Democrats killed such a measure in New Mexico, and derailed another in the state of Washington, and is being used now to attempt to block a third effort in Vermont).
Pelosi's unconscionable strong-arm tactics to keep impeachment "off the table" in the 110th Congress have even cowed House Judiciary Committee Chair John Conyers (D-MI), who in the 109th Congress had been leading calls for an investigation into impeachable crimes by the administration, and had submitted bills calling for formation of a special committee to investigate such crimes. Since Pelosi began her campaign to protect the president from impeachment, Conyers has been silent on the issue, though his discomfort has been obvious.

I know everyone has an important role, but if we're going to continue to fight I think we should beef up the infantry and combat arms a bit more. All I know is finance? YOU POGUES SUCK!!! Always pay problems!! That and you'all were always home with your families while we grunts were deployed and in the field.

For many Americans the Iraq war has been a wake up call. It is the second shot heard round the world. This time, instead of declaring our independence, we are determined to return our government to the people. Do the British feel the same way?
