Politics & Government - 29 March 2007

Khalid Sheik Mohammed spoke unapologetically of the terrorist acts he had committed and those he had wished to commit.

He took responsibility for killing almost 3,000 people on Sept. 11, 2001. He said he had cut off a reporter's head, held it in his hand, and had his picture taken with it. And what was the reaction of two United States senators? They were worried that we had mistreated Khalid Sheik Mohammed in captivity.

They didn't walk out of the room and say this is a frightening example of how serious our enemies are. They worried that we were dealing too harshly with the man who had just finished saying how much he wanted to brutally slaughter us.

This inability to come to grips with evil is suicidal. Does anyone believe you can win a war being 'politically correct' or by serving tea and cookies to your enemies? Is the problem that Americans never faced such danger and are now incapable of believing in the evils of our enemies?

Think about it; our economy would probably rise because we have something else bringing in employment. Less people would be on welfare because this is a career many of these people could have. I'm saying if we legalize and regulate prostitutuion, more people could have a job.

I have been watching and reading questions in various sections on here and so many people seem to be jumping onto a bandwagon, claiming their human rights are being abused, how many of them have actually looked up the Human Rights Acts to begin with, It makes me so angry when they trivialise the acts by brandishing so called abuses on here!
How many of you have actually looked them up, studied them, read them and understood them ??

For the record I have, and I currently have three cases against Spain lodged with Brussels and am preparing two more, so I do know what I am talking about!

I was watching his speech yesterday about the American people blaming Congress for him vetoing a bill that would fund the troops and set a timetable for getting out of Iraq. WTF? Is he that out of touch with reality? The majority of Americans favor a timetable for getting out of Iraq. If you don't believe me, go here: pollingreport.com....every one of the polls there favors Congress.

I live in a tiny College town with a 100% liberal population. When Liberals are talking about attacking. Is that a sign that Bush has conquered the hearts and soul of freedom???

So the growing debt the loss of good jobs the loss of american lives in war none of this has anything to do with Bush .

One function of the Iraqi time table is to let the Iraqi's know when they need to be at full functioning by.. it sets goals and helps them achieve these goals... and if these goals are achieved then the Iraqis will be able to stand against the terrorists on their own.... so with that in mind.. how does the terrorists knowing the date make any difference? if Iraq is functioning as it should the terrorists won't have a foothold to get back in.

Chavez continues to fall in the footsteps of past dictators like Saddam, Ahmadinejad, and Castro. Does he not realize he is biting the hand that feeds his country? With Citgo owned by the Venezuelan government, is it not time for Americans to stop fueling at Citgo?

Are you willing to pay taxes to help smokers stop smoking? People gripe and complain abotu smokers constantly and what they should and shouldn't do. It gets really old. I jusy wonder how many of these same people wanting to outlaw smoking are willing to pay higher taxes so that people will quit.

It is my feeling that senate democrats are the best friends the Taliban and Al Quaeda have. I wonder whether those groups paid the democrats to put this to the vote. It is obvious that those democrats who voted that way are traitors to the US
