Today is yet ANOTHER example of how IMPROVED DOMESTIC POLICY, law enforcement policy reform and increased security are what's protecting us from further terror attacks....
...NOT THE IRAQ WAR. Not even close.
How can ANYONE POSSIBLY disagree with this ?

Suppose 'some' man wants to lodge a complaint of 'some' case of bribery which happened 2 yrs back.
And this man was eye witness of that case of bribery happened 2 yrs back.
The amount of money what 'some' accused accepted from 'some' person in that case was too small to create any disproportion in his property , inside his known source of income.
There was not any criminal misconduct.
Now that accused has stopped demanding and accepting bribe from 1 year.....Means now he can't be catched RED HANDED.
Will A.C.B. deny to take this complaint ?
Is it impossible now to punish that accused for the bribery, which he demanded & accepted 2 yrs back IN SUCH CASE , in INDIA?

Because of my occupation, I consider the world to be my home. One thing I hear over and over again by Americans or on American media is how war has given Americans their freedom.
I have lived in many places on this globe and have found that those countries who are not proactive in war generally have just as much freedom. America is not the only free country and a country doesn't necessarily have to engage in war to be free.

Clearly most conservatives hate Hillary, basically because her name is Clinton. For whatever the reason, they seem to be rooting against her. However, recent polls have shown that head-to-head, Edwards has by far the biggest lead over the Republican candidates and Obama has a fairly significant lead, but Hillary only leads even Thompson and Romney by 3% (Edwards leads them by over 20%).
http://www.rasmussenreports.com/public_content/politics/clinton_leads_both_thompson_and_romney_by_three_points
On the one hand, the Republican candidates have the best chance to beat her. On the other hand, if Hillary wins the Dem nomination, there's a good chance she'll become the next US president. So my question is, should Republicans be rooting for Hillary?

If you can peg anything dealing with life on 'Pro-Life', can we peg everything that’s related to choice on 'Pro-Choice'? We could add on racism, prostitutes, pedophilia, clothes! Clothes would go over well! My God, then we'd really be FREE! Isn't that what you want!?
Oh, no, now you can't pick on conservatives with assault weapons because that’s their choice, and yup, you gotta release all those pedophile priests from prison because it's their choice to fondle little billy. Oh SNAP! He just called that black guy N***** on the radio! Too bad you can't fire him, it's his choice to say that.
Everything is a 'choice', that doesn't mean its a good idea! Me saying pedophilia should be a choice for each person to decide for themselves is just as stupid as you saying that abortion(killing innocent human life forms) should be a choice for each person to decide for themselves.

I was walking home from shopping and man, who I did not know, pulled up in a SUV and asked if I wanted a ride. Of course I said no and kept on walking. He then did a U-turn and left.
The area is a typical middle-class neighborhood without high crime, but this event was fairly creepy. In the future, should I try to avoid this part of town, or brush it off as a one time event?

It seems that George W. Bush deliberately caters to the most right-wing elements of the American public. It seems that those who call themselves Christians unconditionally support our president no matter what he has done. I truly do not believe that George W. Bush is a moral man. He seems to have utter disregard for the laws of the United States especially when it comes to the U.S. Constitution and he started the war with Iraq based on what has been revealed to be false information. Over 3000 of our young men have been killed in Iraq and it just keeps continuing with no end in sight. He willfully ignores the concerns of Congress about the war. I have to wonder what Jesus would say to George W. Bush. Today's American Christians seem less like Jesus and more like the men who killed him. What do you all think?

The Medicaid reimbursement of nursing homes is much lower that of other sources of payment. Nursing homes get paid two or three times as much for a Medicare or a private pay patient. Why wouldn't this provide an incentive for developing creative ways to get certain patients to die faster?

A letter from a National Guard Blackhawk pilot in Iraq
May 23, 2007
A tired and disgusted Iowa soldier fired off an e-mail a few days ago, telling family and friends how things are going in Iraq.
A Blackhawk helicopter pilot, Chief Warrant Officer Jim Funk has flown more than 80 combat missions since he arrived there in October.
He described his Boone-based unit's successes after 5,000 hours of flying out of LSA Anaconda, a huge American base north of Baghdad. He talked about the tragedies he and his fellow Iowans have witnessed and his worries of becoming complacent as he goes on mission after mission.
Morale?
"We're treading water," the Ames man told the people closest to him. "We continue to kick butt on missions and take care of each other, even though we know the American public and government DOES NOT stand behind us.
Ohhhh, they all say they support us, but how can you support me (the soldier) if you don't support my mission or my objectives. We watch the news over here. Every time we turn it on we see the American public and Hollywood conducting protests and rallies against our 'illegal occupation' of Iraq."
His greatest frustration? The performance of the people who deliver the news to the American people.
I'll let him say it, in his own words, in the letter, which found its way to me:
"Hello media, do you know you indirectly kill American soldiers every day? You inspire and report the enemy's objective every day. You are the enemy's greatest weapon. The enemy cannot beat us on the battlefield so all he does is try to wreak enough havoc and have you report it every day. With you and the enemy using each other, you continually break the will of the American public and American government.
"We go out daily and bust and kill the enemy, uncover and destroy huge weapons caches and continue to establish infrastructure. So daily we put a whoopin on the enemy, but all the enemy has to do is turn on the TV and get re-inspired. He gets to see his daily roadside bomb, truck bomb, suicide bomber or mortar attack. He doesn't see any accomplishments of the U.S. military (FOX, you're not exempt, you suck also).
"Let's give you an example. A couple of days ago we conducted an air assault. We lifted troops into an area for an operation. The operation went well and our ground troops killed (insurgents) and took several prisoners, freed a few hostages and uncovered a weapons cache containing munitions and chemicals that were going to be used in improvised bombs.
"The next morning I woke up and turned on AFN (Armed Forces Network) and watched the nightly news (NBC). Nothing, none of that reported. But the daily car bomb report was reported, and the file footage was not even from the event. There was a car bomb in the Sadr City area and your news report showed old car bomb footage from another part of town from some other time.
"So we really set the enemy back that night but all the enemy had to do was turn on the news and be reassured that the enemy's agenda (objective) was still going to be fed to the American public.
"We, the soldiers, keep breaking the back of the enemy. You, the media, keep rejuvenating the enemy.
"How hard would it be to contact the PAO (public affairs officer) of the 1st CAV, 36th CAB, 25th ID or the Marines and ask what did you guys accomplish today - good and bad? How about some insurgent blooper videos? Now that would be something to show on the evening news.
"Media, we know you hate the George Bush administration, but report both sides, not just your one-sided agenda. You have got to realize how you are continually motivating every extremist, jihadist and terrorist to continue their resolve to kill American soldiers."
It's a punch in the nose to the news media from Funk, 39, a full-time employee of the Iowa National Guard.
Why did he write it?
"I am just tired of busting my butt over here and coming home every night and turning on the TV (Armed Forces Network) and hearing how we are failing miserably," he told me in an e-mail.
You may agree with what Funk has to say. You may not.
Many in my business certainly won't. But Funk is a soldier, fighting a war, who has earned the right to be heard.
Chief Warrant Officer Jim Funk, an Iowa National Guard Black Hawk helicopter pilot from Ames, has been serving in Iraq since October. He wrote a letter to friends and family blasting American media coverage of the war.
