If nuclear weopens are no longer a deterrant (the shield thing kills the detterant arguement ) then won't the shield actually encourage growth of nuclear weopens production by americas enemies and (current) allies to dodge the shield, in the event of a war?

If there is a nuclear war, won't america simply have thousands upon thousands more nuclear weapons shot at it, to overwhelm the sheild?

In short... is the whole shield thing worth tearing up the quiet understanding between america and other nuke nations, while destroying the deterrant aspect of nukes (which they were designed for) and creating massive political fallout and hostility in americas friends or old adversaries - whilst also actualy raising the possibility that more nukes will fall on america?

Pro-choice is what Democrats support; the right for a women to choose what she wants to do. But Democrats don't support the death penalty when someone has done something horribly wrong.
Now let's think.
They would kill an innocent baby that hasn't even been born and not have someone who went one a muder rampage killed. Yes, it does sound rather harsh, the death penatly. But that person chose what they were going to do. The baby had no choice.
Hmmmmm.

Hmmmmmmmm.

Now what do you think of Pro-choice.

I just can't believe people would rather support a baby not being alive but a criminal who's had a chance at life having that life.

:P

Sry, just had 2 say that.

"Passenger Lists
Published Passenger Lists Are Missing Hijackers
According to the official story, teams of four and five Islamic hijackers took over Flights 11, 175, 77, and 93. Yet the passenger lists published by CNN and elsewhere are free of any Arab names, much less any matching the alleged hijackers. 1 2 3 4 It has been claimed that the names of the hijackers were on the airlines' flight manifests. However, there is no public evidence of this. Researchers who have attempted to obtain this information from the airlines have been rebuffed. 5

HAMPTON, Va. - Democratic presidential hopeful Barack Obama (news, bio, voting record) said Tuesday that the Bush administration has done nothing to defuse a "quiet riot" among blacks that threatens to erupt just as riots in Los Angeles did 15 years ago.

The first-term Illinois senator said that with black people from New Orleans and the Gulf Coast still displaced 20 months after Hurricane Katrina, frustration and resentments are building explosively as they did before the 1992 riots.

"This administration was colorblind in its incompetence," Obama said at a conference of black clergy, "but the poverty and the hopelessness was there long before the hurricane.

Ive been selected for jury duty and they sent me a juror qualification questionaire. Ive heard of many excuses to get out of it. But most of these questions are pretty basic and I cant sound biased or anything by these questions. Is there a way to fill these out somehow without lieing, but still making you look like a bad asset to the jury?

Internationalize Jerusalem with UN forces so it is no longer Israel or Jordan. Ensure it’s borders and establish checkpoints to maintain security.

Allow ALL religions to practice there without question and without hostility. That way the holy sites remain holy and no nation truly owns it but all are responsible for it being peaceful.

Your thoughts…

I was recently fired from my job as a production assistant on a miniseries, supposedly because I didn't "follow through" on things. However, several people heard my boss saying he wanted to fire one of his permanent production assistants so that he could hire a part-time girl with an accent that he thought was "hot," which is the girl who replaced me. My job performance honestly didn't change at all. I worked ten weeks on this project only to be replaced four weeks before it wrapped. I was the only assistant on set from first shot until camera wrap every day. The other people on the set find the fact that I was fired ridiculous - especially when another assistant who is friends with my boss was given a raise despite the fact that we had the same position, and he was disliked by almost the whole crew. There's a lot of stuff going on with this situation, but I don't know if any of it merits legal action.

Hillary Clinton said that we are going to have to take some things away from people for the common good!! In other words, we are going to penalize those who have taken charge of their lives and earned themselves a nice lifestyle. Once again, we have a politician using the class war argument. It is truly sad that these individuals (politicans) is partially to blame for this. It is welfare that has created this condition. Why work when the government will pay you to stay home. So, here it is, the new leader or voice of the Democratic party telling the world that her party is coming for your money and the audience stood and clapped. Should it you and I that decided who we want to give our money to?

Why do they cite the fact that there hasn't been a terrorist attack since 9/11?

9/11 happened under the noses of a republican mayor, governor, congress, supreme court and president?

How much more evidence do you need that republicans are inept at handling terrorism?

Retired anchor Shaw laments effects of Fox on his beloved CNN


Calling himself "very straitlaced [and] very old-fashioned," Shaw said: "When anchors are reporting the news, they should report the news and allow the viewers at home to decide what they think about issues.

"I don't want to hear an anchor's personal opinion about anything. Just report the news.

Then he better not listen to moonbats like Andersone Cooper or Jack Cafferty.


All they have is opinion.

Rep. Robert Bauman (R-Md.), homophobic founder of Young Americans for Freedom and the American Conservative Union, and a member of the Christian Coalition, lost his House seat in 1980 after disclosures that he solicited sex with a 16-year-old gay male. Donald Lukens (R-Ohio) was sentenced to jail for having sex with a minor.
Here is a list of "family values" Republicans who committed adultery:
Rep. Henry Hyde (R-Ill.), and former Rep. Bob Barr (R-Ga.), who were leaders of the impeachment proceedings against President Bill Clinton; Sen. Bob Dole (R-Kansas); former House Speaker Newt Gingrich (R-Ga.); former Rep. Bob Livingston (R-La.), Rep. Don Sherwood (R-Pa.), who had a five-year extramarital affair with a woman 35 years his junior and who later accused him of repeated assaults; and former Rep. Helen Chenoweth (R-Idaho), who told the Spokane Spokesman-Review that God pardoned her sins.
