In any sort of election, have you ever found yourself voting for one candidate, just because you think the other person isn't nearly up to par, but you don't really have faith in either candidates?

How often have you found yourself doing that? How often do you think that happens in today's society? Do you think a third party could help alleviate that?

"Several years ago, I asked for and received forgiveness from God and my wife in confession and marriage counseling. Out of respect for my family, I will keep my discussion of the matter there — with God and them. But I certainly offer my deep and sincere apologies to all I have disappointed and let down in any way."...yeah, that's the ticket

He went crazy. I was watching as it happened and my jaw dropped. I don't agree with everything he says, but it took some courage to say what he did and I can't hate him for practicing free speech.

as an Englishman who is currently working in the the USA, i feel i must ask this.
The other day whilst getting drunk in my hotel i asked room service to "bring me some lager NOW" to which they rudely replied "You have already had 3 drinks, it is our policy not to serve you any more"
At this point i walked down to the lobby and punched the hotel manager, who very kindly changed his mind and offered me free drinks for life.

I really think right wing thinking eats away at a person's beauty.
Yes, I'm totally biased, and it's my opinion, so it's not scientific, but I think it should be studied. So much hate, antipathy, and bigotry can't make someone prettier, can it?

im about to go to court for drink driving. the alcohol measure in my blood was so high, it was over 3 times the legal limit. I have been driving for 2 years and have never had any points on my license. I stayed with a friend one night for a few drinks, we ended up having an argument and told me to get off her property, i got in my car and tried to sleep it off in the passenger seat until the morning, but she made me get off her property. I was so drunk I FELT I had no choice and about 5 minutes down the road I crashed several times and my car was a write off
I have never had any criminal or motoring offenses before and am struggling to know what to do next. Idont tell me what i did was wrong i know that, and i know nothing excuses what i did. I am here for advice from people who have been through the same thing.. not for a lecture off peopel who think they are better cause they have never done anything wrong
thanks

Suppose Pres. Bush orders a nuclear war, will you obey his orders and explode those nuclear bombs? The President is the commander-in-chief for war. Americans are the actual fighters.

Enoch Powell is most remembered for his “Rivers of Blood” speech, which is often used by the far right anti-immigrationists and anti-multiculturalists as justification for discrimination and bigotry. As a result, he has been vilified and demonised by many on the left as bigot and a racist himself.

And yet Powell was a strong proponent of social justice, a stance that often set him at loggerheads with his own party. He supported the abolition of the death penalty, and on numerous occasions voted against its return. He was in favour of homosexual law reform, supporting the legalisation of homosexuality and fairer treatment of homosexuals.

I wonder if the younger generation knows that we've been imposing stricter regulations on industry since the 70's . Yes , 70's my younger friends . The manufacturing industry has spent Billions in an effort to reduce greenhouse gas . Many of you never saw or experienced just how much carbon emissions there was prior to then .
So , I'm going to be LIBERAL for a little bit and demand CHANGE . This 'surge' in tighter restrictions has gone on long enough . We've given this effort 30 years to show results and what do we have to show for it ? Well , according to the scientists that my liberal friends always like to quote , it's much worse today than 30 years ago . And in my temporary status as a progressive liberal , I not only want change , I demand change . We need to bring or green movement 'troops' home . Back to their families . The rest of the world hates us for leading the way for the past 30 years , and all we're doing is creating more hatred .

Out of space.. . . . continued

I must have missed that part

For the last half century, Canada and the European nations nationalized their medical industries and ever since have been struggling to live up to their promise of “health insurance and quality health care” for all. Huge waiting lists for care and visitations with specialists, a lack of sophisticated medical equipment, rising costs (which must be met by rising taxes), and a general increase in dissatisfaction with government-run health care are typical in all countries where the government, literally, calls the shots

I'm sure that if the Founding Fathers had intended to place "free healthcare" in the Constitution, they certainly would have done so

It is the responsibility of each and every American to provide for his own medical needs, by contracting for such services on the free and open market. The only effective role Congress or the President can play in any debate about health care is to admit that socialist medicine has always been a failure
