The Republicans use the war on terror and terrorism, but the Democrats use global warming, do they not both create fear?

It seems politicians have found that they can get votes just by creating an issue or concentrating on an issue, that gives people a cause to fight for.

The Republicans seem to be concentrating on terrorism, while giving little attention to global warming. The opposite seems to be true of the Democrats. They are concentrating on global warming and reducing the number of troops fighting terrorist.

In my opinion, terrorism is a much larger and more obvious problem right now. Which frightens you more, the average temperature going up some 2-3 degrees over the past 100 years or Islamic extremists carrying signs proclaiming that Muslims will dominate the world, and England’s 9/11 is on the way, while protesting in the middle of London?

IF IT HAD TO BE ONE GROUP, WHICH WOULD IT BE?

Back in 1979, the Communist Worker's Party of America was having an anti-racism rally. The American Nazi Party and KKK joined forces and massacred 5 unarmed communists and injured several more. This was called the Greensboro Massacre. None of the perpetrators were punished.

The five killed were:
- Sandy Smith, a nurse and civil rights activist;
- Dr. James Waller, president of a local textile workers union who gave up his medical practice to defend workers;
- Bill Sampson, a Harvard University graduate in the school of divinity;
- Cesar Cause, an immigrant from Cuba who graduated magna *** laude from Duke University;
and
- Dr. Michael Nathan, chief of pediatrics at Lincoln Community Health Center in Durham, NC, a clinic that helped children from low-income families.

This is one I saw on TV and it seems like a "no brainier"
Most illegal aliens who have had children within the last 5 to 10 years are more than likely born on American soil making the children immediate American citizens.
So if you deport the parents, why do the children have to leave since they are citizens.
But who should take care of the children and why separate them from their parents if they are well taken care of?

Dick Cheney has been a malevolent force on the checks and balances of American government for over six years. He has subverted government processes to lead us into this tragedy in Iraq, and is now seeking to do the same with Iran. Two countries, mind you, he did business with while CEO of Halliburton.

We are at an important moment in American history. For if we don't take action in light of the High Crimes and Misdemeanors committed by one Richard Cheney, we might as well throw the word away. Because there will never be a time when it is more justified.

14 representatives already support H. Res 333, the articles of Impeachment against Dick Cheney.

Television has had a considerable influence on society. Some people accept the news they read in newspapers and watch on television as the gospel truth. Is such trust in our mass media justified? Do you really know who's telling you what to think and why? Today's media radio, television, movies, books, magazines, newspapers, and the internet shape our perception of reality. But how accurate is that perception? Is it true? Sometimes media moguls would like us to believe that our perception (a perception they carefully craft and provide), is reality.

the American people have become enslaved and have been down trodden so long that they accept alost any thing any more , they have no pride in their country nor them selves, and for good reason , our gov, has taken away their pride and made them nothing but property (slaves) the same thing happened in germany, then Hitler came on the scene and gave the people back their pride in being German, and look what happened, so when and if a strong man comes along with the finness some one like David Duke who was to early for his time will the people folow him and things end up the same way they did in Germany? I can see where so many people have just given up because our gov, has became so crooked and do not represent the people as they should , and the people are really looking for some one to lead them, and give them pride in their country and self, our gov, had better take notice and make the neccessary changes in their policys.

Every liberal who has had an abortion feels compelled to defend abortion for all women; every Air America listener who can’t stand the USA feels the need to defend Saddam ; and every Democrat who voted for Bill Clinton feels the need to defend duplicity, adultery, lying about adultery, sexual harassment, rape, perjury, draft dodging, obstruction of justice, kicking the can of global Islamo-fascism down the road for eight years and so on.

Usually the nonsense liberals spout is kind of cute, but in wartime their instinctive idiocy is life-threatening.

American Knights of the Ku Klux Klan:
In Their Own Words:

"Enemies from within are destroying the United States of America. An unholy coalition of anti-White, anti-Christian liberals, socialists, feminists, homosexuals, jews [sic] and militant blacks have managed to seize control of our government and mass media. This gang of criminals and degenerates has declared war on the hard working, tax paying, White citizens … The American Knights of the Ku Klux Klan plan to change things for the better. We shall liberate our nation from these savage criminals and restore law and order to America."

Many Guatamalans are crossing into mexico for a better life and to do the jobs mexicans wont do. I don't understand why they aren't given mexican citizenship,educational and job opportunities. If they are caught illegally in mexico they are treated horribly. Since 1974, foreign immigrants in Mexico illegally have been subject to prison sentences of two years, plus a fine. Immigrants who are caught reentering Mexico after deportation face 10-year prison sentences, compared to two years here. I hear many of them are actually even killed. Why are they being so discriminated against?
