Politics & Government - 4 April 2007

It's amazing for me to see Nancy Pelosi in a burkha. She really respects those that cater to terrorists while not finding any problem with the total denigration that Arab nations have toward their women. It's amazing. I'm sure liberals would have negotiated with a madman like Hitler.

Notice how quickly Iran capitulated when faced with the no-nonsense talk from President Bush?

CAMP DAVID, Maryland (Reuters) - President Bush said on Saturday that Iran's detention of 15 British sailors was "inexcusable" and that Tehran must release them immediately.

Please tell me why you are proud to be an American. I for one would like to say how thankful and proud I am of every soldier fighting, for every family who sent them, for every heart that prays for them, for those in Congress who will support them. May God bless our leaders! May God bless America!

I believe that Gonzales has lied to Congress and to the American people. He must go!

It takes just 30 seconds, but can truly make a difference. We are trying to reach 40,000 signatures - please sign here: http://www.thepetitionsite.com/takeaction/518783964

I have real problems with this - to me, it is a symbol of bigotry, of the subjugation of women. But in some countries it is considered a sign of respect.

The US may be seen as "prudish" by other nations. But by definition we work to avoid discrimination. So it's hard for me to think of a parallel. Obviously, decades ago, a black person would probably face more racism and official indignities in the US than, say, Canada.

But the practice of seeing American women don veils while in the Middle East frankly makes me mad. Part of me wants to snidely suggest that WE institute a custom of forcing men from countries that subjugate women to wear dunce caps while in the US. But that's obviously childish.

So what do we do - when a sign of respect in one country is a sign of extreme DISrespect (to women) in another?

Am I taking the veil too seriously? I understand the rule of "when in Rome." And I am NOT seeking to denigrate other cultures. But we should be able to discuss.

CONSERVATIVE?

And that Pelosi was not the first congressmen/women to visit Syria?

================
"It's interesting because three of our colleagues, who are all Republicans, were in Syria yesterday and I didn't hear the White House speaking out about that," Pelosi said Monday, referring to the Sunday meeting of Reps. Frank Wolf, Joe Pitts and Robert Aderholt with Assad in Damascus.

It seems to me, as an ignorant foreigner, that you can only be a Republican (fascist), or Democrat (fence-straddler, that has to please everyone - which obviously can't be done).
Who represents the working-classes? Do you Americans feel it's appauling that poorer people on your own doorstep are treated so badly?

Democrats claim to be intelligent. Democrats cast aspersions upon Republicans, ( which seems like the envious hatred of losers), and yet Bush has been elected twice to Office and the next President will also be a Republican.

I mean the best the Democrats can come up with is a coke head and more regurgitations of Clinton clan bile.

How is it that a Democrat lays claim to being intelligent but is too stupid to effectively communicate with those it calls stupid?

What should be done with Iran, now that Russia has helped it gain enough nuclear centrofuges to make a nuclear bomb by 2009 and wipe out Isreal. They have already said killing millions of them (iranians) would only make them martars and they don't care. Be specific and stay away from meaningless touchy feeling things.

Recently I posted an answer to a question that gave the source of the Have-Nots population of the U.S. Also I pointed out that the Rich British subjects of the American Colonies were the creators of the Decalaration and the Constitution for their own benefit. The have-nots were dupted into commiting suicide to protect the assets of those Rich Rebels. Nothing has changed.The NCLB program was created by the HAVES to educate the offspring of the Have-nots for the same purpose To produce and protect the assets of the Haves. Namely, to be enabled to function within the confines of The Military/Industrial complex; This is all accomplished minus any shred of ability to critically Think. Removed from today's curriculum is the wherewithal to question or compare what was good government, to what is being asked of our youth to adhere to today. With Gov. in the Education business, the product can only be Pro-Government. IMO, this is what's wrong with the NCLB program.
