Politics & Government - 14 June 2007

Here is the list or reasons that I have collected from Yahoo Answers:

A. Bush lied.
B. Bush was lied to.
C. To remove Saddam because we love Iraq and it’s people so much.
D. Iraq wanted to take our freedom
E. Economical reasons – oil, etc.
F. Strategic reasons – we want to advance and create bases in Middle East.
G. War on terror.
H. Because G W Bush is a Satan, he rigged 9/11 just so he can start the War.


And the list goes on forever. What is your opinion?

Right now on paper, Gaza and the West Bank are the same entity. In light of the fact that Hamas controls Gaza and Fatah controls the West Bank, would it make more sense to split the entity into 2...kinda like what was done between Pakistan and Bangladesh in the 1970s? (After all, in both cases, the 2 areas are separated geographically.)

Does someone who earns 30K or less a year even pay enough taxes to fix the roads they use, let alone pay for welfare? I read questions from young people who are just starting out in jobs...complaining about paying for welfare recipients, and I was wondering what the tax bracket for 'breaking even' is? How many rich people also pay OUR fair share of taxes? Should we make everyone pay equally? Or just welfare recipients?

Each one is aware that the other is there. So they both attack. What strategy would you use if you were in the PT-76? What about the Sheridon? If this scenario was repeated 100 times, how many times would the Sheridan win? How many times would the PT-76 win? Explain your reasoning.

I know it's wishful thinking to expect the Great Pimp to do the right thing but I figured I'd ask anyway.

I ask because so many people seem to think that we Dems get together and pool together all the tax money and then deposit it into our personal checking accounts.

So I'm curious... where do you think your tax money goes?

From the Wall Street Journal. Remember, my socialist friends, contrary to your beliefs incentives matter and productive people will not accept nonsense such as this. All you will get is more pain, suffering and death.

A couple weeks ago it was Halliburton had not built the 22 Police Stations that the 23,000 Surgers would live in.

Then the no back ground check thing on the Iraqi Police came out. Seems at least 25% of the police were actually foreigh fighters.

Now we are hearing September is too soon. and the Blue Voice is saying "See I told you so"

It's always the troops that suffer with this political garbage.

He was a tobacco farmer. He was a fairly wealthy landowner. He was a slave owner. Although not an evangelical, he did believe in a Christian God. He was an imperialist. He believed in the innate superiority of the white race over both the blacks and the indians. He was a firm believer in a small federal government and strong state governments.

Which of these traits do the lefties claim to be "liberal"?

Appart from the obvious joke about his reading age, George H W Bush wrote a book about why he didnt launch a full invasion of Iraq in 1991. You'll never guess what his reasons were.....bitter factional fighting........Iraq is not cut out for democracy.........no plausable replacement for Saddam...........not enough international consensus or UN mandate............would evolve into a nationa building quagmire. Net result= Bush is an complete bafoon.

Is it the threat to the holders of wealth, or is it the fear of liberalisms want to spread it around? You have the resourses to convey this message to poor people and now even some of those folks share this fear. How is that? Please no answers about freedom, it's not about that...or religion. Money talks and I just want to hear what it has to say... I mean, if gorvernment is so limited then who gets to pull the strings?

Now Bush plain lied,
Blair had a misguided policy of backing the US to the hilt, (I believe, sincerely), despite suspecting the Bush administration Lied,
The Iraqi people welcomed the removal of a psychopathic despot but were under prepared for the mismanagement and the chaos that would bring.....

Now who has benefited from this chaos?

It sounds like the Limbaugh Hannity Coulter axis of propaganda dismisses anything but their own beliefs as beholden to "liberalism" decaying America. Anyone remember the McCarthy era?

2007-06-14 04:15:09 · 14 answers · asked by Anonymous in Politics

This is for MY argument only. I listen to Sean Hannity and see what he has done for the troops in Iraq (my brother in law has seen what he has done). I don't know what Franken has done.
Since I'm on the subject, how can I hear Air America in Phoenix, Arizona so I can get a true "balance" on my opinion of the Demcrats?

Seriously! I have seen some conservatives here call liberals both fascists and Communists in one sentence! Apparently these folks don't know much about history, because if they did, they would know that the fascists were vehemently against the Communists and vice versa.

More poison toothpaste entered the country. This time from Africa.
Could poison products be a new terrorist tactic? Wouldn't this be a way to get biological agents into the country as well? What safeguards do we have in place, if any?

Do you even care about the record low approval rating for congress? Aren't you supposed to be a leader? Do any other congress members care that their constituents think they are such lowlifes? When will someone step up to the plate, provide the leadership, cut the pork, put some restrictions on the family member employee mess, and hold congress to some type of professional standard?

It is in Canada, but I would imagine their legal system isn't that different from the US. What do you all think about this? I guess the judge thought that if he went to jail, he would for sure be someone's girlfriend. And do you think that alternative sentences like this one could do more harm or more good?
