As this is a common occurance off Somalia and we can't enter their waters, Why hasn't the almighty and powerful U.N. passed any resolutions?
Or should we just go in there and jack them up?

Isn't he walking around free and under no indictment? If the charge of outing Valerie Plame isn't serious enough to warrant charges, why is it serious enough to get Libby thrown in jail?

He 'lied' to a grand jury. So did William Jefferson. He obstructed justice. So did William Jefferson. What is the difference?

I think they all are. I think Daddy started a war in 1991 that he couldn't finish. He couldn't have taken out Saddam but backed off. It is vastly reported by Desert Storm personnel that they could have taken out Saddam because we had Baghdad.

Clinton could have given the order to take out Bin Laden when we knew exactly where he was and he opted not to.

Now Baby Bush had to make up for Daddy's mistake and also for Clinton's non-action. Now we have a mess in Iraq and we are fighting shadows in Afghanistan. Failure by Clinton to act caused 9/11 and failure for Daddy Bush to act caused Iraq.

There are definitely other shady motives behind 'Operation Iraqi Freedom' but his dad is the real reason why we are in this situation in the first place.

I've read many comments from anti-illegals on here and it seems to me that there is quite a bit of animostiy and hatred toward illegals as a group and not the illegal immigration situation. Shouldn't we be mad at our government for letting the situation get out of hand? Yet I read so many racist, stereotypical comments and this doesn't reflect well on americans. We have more compassion than that! Why can't we be adult and hate the situation and not the people?? I hate smoking, but I don't hate smokers...I understand that they have an addiction however bad it may be. I don't like the illegal immigration situation but I certainly don't hate the people.

What would be the best way to start a grass roots movement to get term limits for the U.S. Senate and the House of Reps. There is no leadership in Washington and we the people need to sound the alarm and wake these people up. How can they focus if your contantly worried about posturing for the next for the next election. What happened to being a Civil SERVANT?

Apperntly, some people think it does not matter that Slick Willy cheated on his wifey! And she seems to not care! How do I tell my 17 year old daughter, and 13 year old son that only presidents are allowed to cheat on thier spouse, but you can't. If they can not keep the vows of marraige, how can they keep the vow of office?? Any idiot diehard democrat will support them, I may be a registerd Republican, but I vote for who I think is best. Republican OR democrat! Wake up America!!!!

P.S. Boycott Hersheys and head to the Mexican border with your illeagle firearms to shoot illeagle aliens! LOL.

Yes I am aware of the past mainly their staunch support of the USSR, but considering Cuba is sputtering Economically Castro is set to die in a couple of years wouldn't be time for the US to start making an influence in Cuba. The reason China did not become like Cuba was because we became involved with them and started to develop influence. With the government and its people.

MANCHESTER, N.H. (AP) - Republicans call it the Eleventh Commandment, and presidential hopeful Tom Tancredo is breaking it. Tancredo said today in New Hampshire that he will work against fellow Republicans who support an immigration bill he considers a sellout.

Republicans say 'Thou shall not speak ill against another Republicans' is their Eleventh Commandment.

Tancredo says he will use his presidential campaign to start a petition drive and volunteer network to mobilize voters against senators who support the White House-backed immigration plan. The bill provides a pathway to citizenship to the estimated 12 million illegal immigrants already in the United States. Tancredo says the bill will grant amnesty to more than 15 million illegal aliens, bankrupt Social Security and do nothing to secure the borders."

What do you think?

I've been reading over some Y! Answers that have to do with political views, and the majority of them say (in response to certain questions) as you get older and gain more knowledge typically you become more conservative. Why would that be? I would think as you acquire more knowledge and become aware of other cultures, etc. that would make you more tolerant and perhaps more liberal.

But they did not elaborate how they could reduce abortions, why is that?

Does that mean they will state abstinence should be taught in schools? or do they think more young girls should have access to birth control? Birth Control pills have been linked to an increase in breast cancer as they get older during hormonal changes.

Isn't reducing abortions the same thing as saying we need to reduce drug abuse, please stop injecting heroin or snorting cocaine and just smoke pot then maybe you will eventually stop smoking pot ?? Is this more *demmie spinning the issues*?

Rush said yesterday that todays economy is the "best economy in decades..." Yet Fed Chairman Ben Bernake says today on FOXNEWS that "our economy will rebound in months ahead..." Do all Republicans our current excellent economy needs to rebound? Or do they want it both ways again?
