When and why did people start with the name calling instead of honestly debating the issues? You know: Dirty Liberals or Dirty Neocons, or things along those lines. And why are there so many questions with False Data and no Sources?
Do any of you think we will ever get back to Honest Debates?

U.S. and Iraqi forces say they have killed 90 al Qaeda fighters around Baghdad during one of the biggest combined offensives against the Sunni Islamist group since the invasion of Iraq in 2003. "Ding Dong the Wolf is Dead" All of a sudden with our trickle of a surge, seems like all of a sudden, lot of good things happening. Papers are full of great news, 90 killed, 30 killed, 50 killed. MMMMM...so why didnt our 156,000 troops do any good? I believe that this is all fiction to make the lousy president look good before he is practically "kicked out" of office, as only 24% of the US even want him there and more countries around the world feel the same way. "We're making headway, but whe only have 40% of Iraq under control, Bull. With the amount of our people dieing every day, nothing is under control. When I see all those crazies lined up in a row on the ground DEAD, then I will believe that whe are making headway, HOOORAH! Other then that, stories are made up daily. Chow.

On the surface it sounds good . But after looking deeper I wonder . I wonder what'll happen when your state finds a great Senator , but then must say good-bye prematurely because of a law . Or when you get a great Congressman that really does do his or her job only to say bye-bye after whatever limit is imposed .

And just how long would you have searched for a great Senator or Congressman ?.. . .. . .And how long would you have to search for another , but in the meantime suffering for years searching and knowing it was a law that you supported that got rid of a good one ?!?!
I'm very interested in reading your answers and SOLUTIONS !!
Thank you .

You Obama supporters should love this!

Excerpts:
WASHINGTON - One of the first 527 committees formed in support of a 2008 presidential candidate is Vote Hope, created by San Francisco attorney Steve Phillips, who is also the president and founder of the liberal PowerPAC.

Vote Hope bills itself as a PAC in support of Sen. Barack Obama.

The most well-known 527 was 2004's "Swift Boat Veterans for Truth," the group that targeted John Kerry and his Vietnam military record.

That all these conservative and liberal zealots are doing is making the moderate majority sick of all of their gas, and lighting a fire under them so that they will get out and force the country to be led by common sense, rather than liberal or conservative dogma?

REPUBLICANS HAVE LIED LOUD AND CLEAR THAT THEY HAVE ABSOLUTELY NOTHING TO DO WITH CONSERVATISM. Six years of total Republican contol in congress and the Presidency brought bigger government, federal budget deficits, meddling in world affairs leading to bogging down american troops for 4 years and potentially many more to come, more pork spent on the hill then any other time in American history, a falling dollar, and, record gold price increases (which stem from world instability).

And does it really matter, they probably have quite a bit of uranium stocked up by now.

We are going to give them millions of tons of fuels and then they are going to screw us again by either resuming their nuclear activities publically or privately by kicking out the inspectors.....

Who the hell thinks North Korea can be trusted?

Current even mid-size sedans do not achieve 35mpg.
A new test is coming out next year that will reduce the estimated mileage of every vehicle. The Prius will most likely be rated at 40 or 45mpg after this change.
With SUVs and trucks included in this 35mpg average do you believe it will possible without a majority of vehicles produced being very small and lightweight?

Where in the World did that silly notion come from?

Google the phrase "Dissent is the highest form of patriotism" along with the name "Thomas Jefferson" and you'll find thousands of Web pages attributing the sentiment to the third president of the United States. The main problem with this is, the quote is only about 2 years old...not 200.

It was made by Howard Zinn in an interview with TomPaine.com to justify his opposition to the War on Terror. Someone erroneously attributed the quote to Jefferson.

Howard Zinn, for those who aren't aware, is an out-and-out unrepentant Communist. Yep. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Howard_Zinn
http://www.frontpagemag.com/Articles/ReadArticle.asp?ID=8145

Rudimentary fact-checking plainly reveals this whole "dissent is patriotic" nonsense to be an utter crock of complete B.S.

Thomas Jefferson never said that, it was some USA-hating commie b@stard!

Democrat Politicians have committed treason to the United States as " adhering to (our) enemies, giving them aid and comfort. Harry Reid, Nancy Polosi, Dick Durbin, and John Murtha, amongst others, are gulity of exactly that. When a government official stands on the floor of congress and declares the war lost; or travels to Syria, a state-sponsor of terror, and meets with the leadership that is funneling insurgents into Iraq to kill Americans soldiers; or, publicly compares our military men and women to Nazis, it's just not the Democrats that have betrayed our men and women in uniform, it's also many on the left. the best ally that Al Qaeda has these days is the Democrat Party leadership. It's reprehensible.
