Why does it seem like they'll respect the president no matter what unless he's a democrat?

advertise a question by a possible president runner with a politically charged question that seems (to me) nationalistic and xenophobic in a hope to gain support.

I’m all for reducing carbon dioxide emissions and using less oil, but why phase it as “USE LESS FOREIGN OIL”.

If this is the thinking of a would be president, to single out that foreign oil suppliers for the USA are bad when many counties depend on oil exports to the USA, then my question is "why would other world leaders or citizens of other worlds be interested in buying goods from America."

Further note will we see any other questions from possible president runners.

Is this what happened to the 12 billion that went missing .
Halliburton runs the supply convoys and shipments and provides all the food water and other necessities soldiers and Iraqi's need .
SO a black market for extra food and water has developed and the 12 billion went missing on purpose to help support Americans promoting free enterprise .
We are getting them hooked on money like a heroin dealer who hands out free samples .
And we are getting the money back one bottle of water and a chocolate bar at a time .

So its reported that the makers of this video is a group from a company called Blue State Digital.

This company was founded by four members of the Howard Dean 2004 campaign. Clay Johnson, Jascha Franklin-Hodge, Joe Rospars, and Ben Self.

Rospars is being hired last weekend I guess by Obama's camp as media director.

"The other day the oil companies recorded the highest profits in the history of the world. I want to take those profits. And I want to put them into a strategic energy fund that will begin to fund alternative smart energy, alternatives and technologies that will actually begin to move us in the direction of independence.

We are trying to access his closed bank accounts as he took a large sum of money with him O/S. According to the bank, only his wife, who is O/S and uncooperative, can access his accounts. Is there any way around this so we can see what he did with this large sum of money prior to leaving the country?

How do they plan to do this without raising tax rates? And, without breaking their campaign pledges not to raise taxes?
Inquiring minds would like to know.

The Soviet's spent 1 and half trillion fighting a cold war, we seem to sending nearly half of that back into China, simply in the name of cheap products, not caring what the long term conquenses shall be. Is "GREED" truely the issue that will lead to America's downfall or at least the rise of a potentially dangerous adversary?

Raise CAFE mileage to 45mpg for cars and 35 for SUVs and pickups. Raise GAS TAXES to $2 a gallon and use the tax revenue to retool Detroit for hybrid car production and to buy back all the millions of gas guzzlers on our roads. Then crush the guzzlers and use the metal for hybids production. This was an idea by a brilliant columnist and I think this idea may be our only hope.

(in australia) my sister and i had charges put on a man and we went to court for 3 years because they declared the first trial a mistrial and then the second trial ended with a deal that he pleaded guilty to my charges so my sister would drop hers (she just didnt want to go anymore)
we were underage then. i didnt claim any victims of crime because i felt guilty about my sister not being eligible because she had dropped her charges.
i read somewhere that you can apply for victims of crime until 7 years after or until the victim is 21 (i think)
my question is is there any way to claim now that it is over 7 years old and i am 22? or is there anything else i can do?

When you watch him on t.v. it's obvious that he is not quite that bright. With all those people working for him and telling him what to say, how does he continually screw it up? They must get so tired of that. I've seen much smarter people in the "Special Olympics". If they had that many people telling them what to do, they could get it right. What's the morons problem? Viva la Revolucion!

She knew that he wanted to go into the Army. Did she think he could sit behind a desk all the time?? I put 22 years in the Army. Could have gotten killed any time. Was drafted and stayed my choice. She is to me, as a veteran, like Jane Fonda, a traitor. Her American citizenship should be taken away. This is why the world loves America, we stab ourselves in the back all the time. My son is a Fireman, god bless him, he could get killed at anytime during a fire every day. I would not bad mouth the Fire dept. if something should happen to him. This is his choosen Job.

With only months under their belt, the Democratic Congress and Senate have managed to expose the Bush Adminstration for what it truly is, a manipulative web of lies,deceit and incompetence. What about the other six years? What crimes did he get away with while Republicans stood on watch?
