When you read this quote by Oliver Cromwell that was made to parliament, what is the first person that comes to mind?

“you have been sat to long here for any good you have been doing. Depart, i say, and let us have done with you. In the name of god, go!.”

The constitution guarantees the right to bear arms correct?

which is nothing more than the right to protect oneself, wouldn't it be implied that we also have the right to not protect oneself....whether it be by guns, knives or any other device that by using it would protect ourselves. so then why is it by law we have to buckle our seatbelts or we get a ticket. isn't that against our constitutional rights to opt not to protect ourselves?

Bush communtes Libby's jail term calling it "excessive." Libby gets $250,000 fine and probation.

Do you honestly believe that Libby deserves jail time?

Richard Armitage who could hardly be called a pro bush Supporter gave Plames name to Novak.

This should be enough for most people to go oh ok..why is he not being tried?

answer politics. Democrats wanted a bigger fish to fry and that was in the whitehouse. Now heres whats developing, Democrats want to make a big deal out of nothing. The law that was suposedly broken wasnt really even broken, the person who wrote the law even believed that it was a stretch to try someone in this particular instance. Then in true political fashion, instead of being able to get someone for the "Crime" you get them for something else. This was Libby's fall he couldnt recall a meeting that had at the time happend months ago. There were notes of it that a reporter had so bam got him for Perjury. Perjury of what ..lying about something to do with a NON crime? Even the prosecuter doesnt have anything to charge someone for the "crime" so there,,

The independent investigation did not turn up violations of FISA law, but did uncover perjury committed to obstruct justice in discovering who revealed state secrets to punish whistleblowers.

Is forgiving Libby better or worse than a $60 million Whitewater investigation leading to impeachment proceedings over a dress stain?

Whitewater ended up with a dress stain because despite all the splashing, there were never any real fish there. Just the little minnow. The Plame pond, however, was filled with bloated carp but all that ended up in the net was Scooter. The giant Rove carp still lurks. Which was worse?

The lie-berals and dems have set a new record in lowest ratings for congress. There has not been a lower rating since the birth of our wonderful country.

Can anyone counter this fact ?

Just before the 2006 elections, the president knew that if he didn't get rid of Rumsfeld, the republicans would probably lose seats in the house and senate. Lo and behold, the democrats took control of both, by a few seats. He immediately replaced Rumsfeld and said I guess we got a good thumpin. Now the democratic congress has an approval rate of 17%, they haven't got us out of Iraq, which they said they would, they can't cut off funds or a lot of them would lose their jobs in the next election, the Illegal immigration bill didn't pass, and Bush can sit back as a lame duck president, with all the blame going to the democrats, and watch them self destruct. Kudos George. My hats off to you.

My little brother is in basic training in Ft. Sill, OK. It's very hard for him and his battalion to be cut off from the outside world, so I am trying to get as many people as possible to drop him a line, a postcard, a greeting card, a one-liner, anything through email for me to print out and send, because snail mail is all they can receive!

Shoot me an email at lindsayseitz@hotmail.com or lindsay.seitz@yahoo.com and I will print it out and send it to him.

After a while, I'm going to get the name of some guys there who aren't receiving any letters from anyone at home and I will start collecting letters and words of encouragement for them too!

Thank you ahead of time for all your support!

I know someone who "hurt" themselves while in basic. He is now in the hospital, and I was just wondering what usually goes on with that. Do they send them home and thats it or is there a medical discharge?

This has been the most corrupt administration I have seen and read about in history. Libby should have served his sentence. If it were anyone else, they would have paid the price. Lil' Bush says he can go. Let us not forget Iraq's invasion. Consider Bush's unorthodox actions in the past years and tell me if you think he should be impeached, as well as Cheney.

If you saw the news today. The black nasty cop who shot the hispanic soldier who was in Irak fighting for this country. was not guilty. Acording to the video used in the court, shows another story, because we can see clearly than the black guy was trying to kill the hispanic man. The cop ( I believe was in Riverside County in California) ordered the man to stand up and then he started shooting at him. The question is: How about if the family, since the court couldn't make justice, take the justice in their own hands? It seems like the system every time more and more is pushing the society to take justice by their own. That's because when unjustice is clear, they don't punishe the criminals, we now know even cops are criminals, we've seen them commiting crimes. What do you think? Should they (The Family) do whatever it takes to make justice?
