Are you in Iraq? If not, why?

I have no political experience. This is a crazy question, I know. But how can I run for senator? Or House of Reprasentatives? Hell... I'll settle for mayor.

Remember, the Democrats are not in power because of Rahm Emanuel's godlike powers of fundraising, regardless of what you might hear in the media. The Democrats are in power because they promised to end the Iraq war.

And yet this is how they treat their colleagues who are actually proposing to do that. Does this bode well for American democracy?

I think a LOT of people here on Yahoo don't actually know what those terms REALLY mean. I have a feeling that most answers to my question will be a LOT of name-calling and a bunch of you thumping your chests... but NOT actually answering this question directly. Prove me wrong... oh, and its okay to use a dictionary (I think a lot of you might need it for this).

GO BY WHAT I WROTE @ http://www.sorryaboutourpresident.com/ BELOW:

It's sad for me to say, but as of now, i'm not all that proud to be an American... and i'm certainly not proud of our president.

When BUSH was brought into office I was just becoming a teenager (I am 19 now).

I was carefree and innocent, unaffected by the reality of everything that was happening around me. My mind was devoid of the truths of this world and the injustice within it. It wasn't until 9/11 that I began to wake up and notice the world around me.

As I grew older, I realized the true nature of my country and it's president.

Not only my country, but the state of OUR world.

I am one person.

One person in a world of nearly 7 billion (7,000,000,000) living human beings. I didn't choose which country, city or town to be born in, and neither did anyone else.

9/11 was terrible, indeed... but in the grand scheme of things, it was small in scale compared to things America itself had done before. 200,000 people have died as a result of the Hiroshima bombing, though that is besides the point.

The main things that are halting our progress as a civilization right now are:

1. The widespread intolerance of each others religions, and the mixing of these view points into the realm of politics.

2. The boundaries we have set between each other- country borders, religion, race, generalizations and ignorance. No one is worthless, everyone whether they realize it or not, has attributes that allow them to be useful in certain fields.

3. Greed, hate, lack of effort and care.

I think i'm getting a little too passionate with this, i'll just lay down my main concern:

The demand for food on this planet greatly outweighs the supply. We need to figure out ways to up the production of food, and somehow fairly regulate the population of the world...
I'm afraid it's too early for these things... hardly possible now. For this to work, we would need a true sense of worldwide fellowship of which I hope to see within my lifetime.

We need to break our boundaries and realize we are all human... to leave our archaic methods of running this world behind, and move on to much more intelligent and humanitarian based structures.

I know it's far off, but here's a tip of advice for our current world leaders-

The "War on Drugs" is a sad facade for an organized business of many, many greedy individuals.

Summon the courage to make the world a better place. All drugs should be legalized... free will is key.

If one wants to do harm to their own body, let it be done. As long as one does not interfere with the free will of another, then all is fine: that is the way of the future.

The trillions, and trillions of dollars saved from this can be used to begin a TRUE start to the bettering of the lives of unfortunate people around the world.

I have hope for the future, and if you do too, than anything is possible.

and if you are going to cite it, could you remember that the 'downing street memo's" were "destroyed" by the reporter that claims to have retyped the memo.

Is that really enough evidence of a lie? Or do you have something real?

(I also know most of you have never heard of the downing street memo's, even though that is the basis of your entire opinion on Bush. If that is the case, one word: Pathetic!)

Empires have always invaded and occupied oil/ mineral rich lands under the label of "freedom". All the way back to ancient greece, Alexander the Great 'liberated' persia for its riches too.
What the problem?

1. We have now studied three departments of government—the legislative, the executive, and the judicial. Show how each, at times, acts as a check upon the others.

2. Read Articles Four and Six of the Constitution of the United States and show how each provision has helped to "insure domestic Tranquility."

3. Turn to the Constitution and read Article Six carefully. What is the "Supreme Law of the Land"? How has this provision of the Constitution helped unite the states?

4. Why is it important that executive officers, both of the United States and of the several states, be bound by oath or
affirmation to support the Constitution of the United States?

5. What provision found in Article Six of the Constitution helped establish the credit of the United States? How has this provision benefited the United States?

6. Try to learn the amount of the Federal debt. To whom is this debt owed?

I work at a law office and am looking to make some extra money. One of the girls in the office told me to become a legal guardian for people. How do I get started on doing that? I know there is a class that I have to take but I am not sure where to take it and anything else that I would have to do and also how would I build up my clients.

The United States is the only nation that has ever used nuclear weapons to kill civilians. Should we remember our sins, repent, and ask for forgiveness? That is the question.

2007-03-21 06:44:06 · 15 answers · asked by Ray Eston Smith Jr 6 in Politics

We've been hearing for years that if someone has nothing to hide, they shouldn't be at all concerned with warrantless wiretaps of their phone conversations, or random searches of their bags or of police entering their home without a warrant.

So the question is, if Bush has nothing to hide why can't Rove and Miers testify under oath? Aren't they just public servants who work for the people? Or does Bush consider himself and his people above the law? And if that's true, wouldn't a Democratic president also be above the law?

Seems awfully inconsistent to me.
