Question 1:



If you knew a woman who was pregnant, who had 8 kids already, three who were
deaf, two who were blind, one mentally retarded, and she had syphilis, would
you recommend that she have an abortion?

Read the next question before looking at the response for this one.


Question 2:



It is time to elect a new world leader, and only your vote counts. Here are
the facts about the three candidates.

Candidate A. Associates with crooked politicians, and consults with
astrologist. He's had two mistresses. He also chain smokes and drinks 8 to
10 martinis a day.

Candidate B. He was kicked out of office twice, sleeps until noon, used
opium in college and drinks a quart of whiskey every evening.

Candidate C He is a decorated war hero. He's a vegetarian, doesn't smoke,
drinks an occasional beer and never cheated on his wife.

Which of these candidates would be our choice? Decide first... no peeking,
then scroll down for the response.


















Candidate A is Franklin D. Roosevelt. Candidate B is Winston Churchill.
Candidate C is Adolph Hitler.




And, by the way, on your answer to the abortion question: If you said YES,
you just killed Beethoven.






Pretty interesting isn't it? Makes a person think before judging someone.
Wait till you see the end of this note! Keep reading..






Never be afraid to try something new. Remember: Amateurs...built the ark.
Professionals...built the Titanic





And Finally, can you imagine working for a company that has a little more
than 500 employees and has the following statistics:

* 29 have been accused of spousal abuse
* 7 have been arrested for fraud
* 19 have been accused of writing bad checks
* 117 have directly or indirectly bankrupted at least 2 businesses
* 3 have done time for assault
* 71 cannot get a credit card due to bad credit
* 14 have been arrested on drug-related charges
* 8 have been arrested for shoplifting
* 21 are currently defendants in lawsuits
* 84 have been arrested for drunk driving in the last year...

Can you guess which organization this is?



Give up yet?







It's the 535 members of the United States Congress. The same group that
crank out hundreds of new laws each year designed to keep the rest of us in
line.

With some logic, I can't figure, why we would have any base in all of Asia left? What for? China is the new police there, whatever reason we ever had, its obsolete I heard that the Pentagon has even some old forts against Indian Natives in Texas still operating. Do they kill bisons on the weekends?

In his farewell address, Dwight D. Eisenhower warned of the dangers of a military industrial complex:

"In the councils of government, we must guard against the acquisition of unwarranted influence, whether sought or unsought, by the militaryindustrial complex. The potential for the disastrous rise of misplaced power exists and will persist.

We must never let the weight of this combination endanger our liberties or democratic processes. We should take nothing for granted. Only an alert and knowledgeable citizenry can compel the proper meshing of the huge industrial and military machinery of defense with our peaceful methods and goals, so that security and liberty may prosper together."

Can you speak to this comment in relation to today?
How "alert and knowledgeable" is our citizenry?

The BBC documentary keeps getting deleted from youtube, but it's on the vast internet, beyond Al's control now

it shows that scientists whose names were prostituted as supporting the theory want their names removed in association with it, and they not only won't remove their names some have been threatened

copy it before Al gets it gone again

tried posting this on ABCnews blog but the lieberal ABC monitors who unquestioningly support Al's socialist garbage won't allow the truth out

I find myself crying everyday for you guys, and gals, lately. I have the deepest respect, and love for you. I was not allowed into the services, because I am disabled. (I wanted to join the Army in 1986, and was turned away.)
I want you to know how much you're loved by America, and how gateful most of us are to you for your courage, fortitude, and strength, but with the Liberals constantly protesting the war in Iraq, I am very upset by them doing that.
I want to know, how can I better help to support you guys, in your fight to protect us? What can I do for you, to show you the full force of the love I bare for you? Thank you, from the top, and the bottom of my heart for risking your precious lives, for your country! I love you, and will never stop.
Thanks!

Why does it seem that those who may have come here illegally get on this forum and are quick to point out anything bad about legal Americans or White Americans and want to pick fights with people. or even think that their race is responsible for giving us things that we had long before they were here? I know I will get all sorts of anwers I expect it just be honest and keep it clean I don't want your name calling or belittling of other races, backgrounds etc... If you don't understand what I am looking for don't answer it will be a waste of my time as well as yours. I don't have a problem with Mexicans or Latinos or anyone else who wants to be here and do it legally so don't go running off at the mouth about we are all racist. Just tell me why if you think you are allowed to be here that you can't or won't take the time to fill in the appropriate paperwork so we know who you are and allow you to enjoy ALL of the freedoms that come with being an American.

"If Bush cares about the Iraqi's so much, then why did he litter their country with DEPLETED URANIUM??
and if Bush really supports the troops why does he make them work in these radioactive areas without proper protection?"

Its just so damn funny to read if you know what depleted uranium is...

Its been what 5 plus years now and no credible evidence. There were 1000's of police and fireman crawling all over those buildings and in the general vicinity that day... and not one has suggested something other than the aircraft took those towers down.

My suggestion to YA. They need to set a limit on the number of these conspiracy questions that get posted each day. They are taking up valuable bandwidth.

Earnest T PHD provided these numbers so we can call these Corporations and demand that they no longer sponsor Al Sharpton's show.

McDonald's Corp # is 1-800-244-6227 , then push 1, then 2
Wal-Mart's Corp # is 1-800925-6278

He has a right to free speech and WE have the RIGHT to say we don't want to listen to his hate and do business with a place that sponsors it!
