Politics & Government - 14 July 2007

There is so much more going on behind the scenes and neither party talks about that.

Like the fact our Government has been policing the World and bombing Middle Eastern cities for almost two decades.

Selling weapons to this side then that side. Hoping they will kill off each other!

If a foreign Government was always forcing their hand in America and landed on our soil to force us into thinking a certain way and then started bombing us what would you do?

And for those deep in religion you can times that by 50%

Then when they (Middle Eastern) finally retaliate that foreign force tells their own country (America) to be scared 24/7 but go on about your regular life.

I am not sympothizing with terrorist's, I am arguing what Lobbyists and those corrrupt with this Government have done in our names!

And I have to say - it looks like people are dying over natural resources!

I don't think you can kill half a million of their population and then say your safe

Am I right

each time they fill up their gasoline tank. Also do they seem to not realize that once U.S troops pull out we have the making of WW III as Iran is strategically waiting for the collapse of Iraq so they can take over the oil sights. Am I the only one who does that sees this (you can argue all you want about the war if it was justify or not and in most cases it is not, but to say that a troop pull out will benefit the nation in the long run is absurd). A troop pull out will create so much havoc in the area that we will be put in an even worse situation then we are now. Regardless how you feel we cannot deny that our economy is depend on oil and our need for it is an absolute. If we pull out this will cause a big time problem of the price of oil and therefore our economy also to pull out without Iraq being fully equipped to protect themselves is very irresponsible. We still have bases in Japan and in Germany that exist because we help build those two nations after the WW II. How is this different?

This person never lived at my address and I haven't heard from him since he dumped me, but I receive notices from the municipal courts informing him of court dates.I called and told them that he does not live here and ask if they would fix that, but for some reason they couldn't. The first charge was trespassing and this latest one has to to with a bicycle rule. Can I file charges so that he will stop using my address?

Why do you think Mohammedans are killing Westerners as well as their own people in Iraq, England, Israel, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Lebanon, Algeria, Kenya, Palestinian territories, the U.S., Malaysia, Indonesia, Chechnya, Jordan, Darfur, Spain, France, Germany, etc.

Is this violence an inherent characteristic of Islam?

Why haven't there been mass demonstrations by Mohammedans against terror?

...of government, or a Fascist form of government? Being Hillary Clinton favors Communal style government & Rudy Giuliani favors a Fascist style of government, I need your input on this. What advantage do you see in one over the other? Which would better control you & your fellow Americans?

I am 19 years old and my dad has been out of the picture for a while...I only seen him a few times until after I turned 18 and found him myself...anyways...I was told that I can take him to court and get child support since he only paid a few times before I turned 18. I was told that I could collect child support on myself for before I turned 18. How would I do this? I know I have to go to court and all, but where do I start? Does anyone know of a website that could give me more info or tell me where to go. Also, would they just take the lawyer fee and everything out of what I would get? It was through the state, so there is really no "my/my moms word against his"...they have proof of what he paid (or didnt pay..) Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!

Clinton first delcared iraq had WMD...he also cut funds for the lower class (ie: cut finanical aid to families with independant children) i don't need to say anything about Bush that people don't know already.
Nadar has done more as a citizen for people than any handfull of presidents: including OSHA, Clean air act, nutritient labels on food, car crash testing, warning on drugs, tread wear label on tires, to name a few.
Both Democrats and Republicans give way to corporation campaign and care less about the working class.

note to democrats who think nadar is a spoiler... in 2000, bush won florida by 500 votes. Every independant candidate had more than 500 votes. get a better campaign and fulfill the libertarian and consumer issues and stop the corporate prostitution,

After the Gulf War he stated:

"I would guess if we had gone in there, I would still have forces in Baghdad today. We'd be running the country. We would not have been able to get everybody out and bring everybody home.

And the final point that I think needs to be made is this question of casualties. I don't think you could have done all of that without significant additional U.S. casualties, and while everybody was tremendously impressed with the low cost of the (1991) conflict, for the 146 Americans who were killed in action and for their families, it wasn't a cheap war.

And the question in my mind is, how many additional American casualties is Saddam (Hussein) worth? And the answer is, not that damned many. So, I think we got it right, both when we decided to expel him from Kuwait, but also when the President made the decision that we'd achieved our objectives and we were not going to go get bogged down in the problems of trying to take over and govern Iraq."

why r cons so down on "socialized" healthcare when we have "socialized" firemen, "socialized" police and "socialized" schools. what i mean is that why should we not have government-run heathcare when all those things i just mentioned are government run. insurence companies want to make a profit and not help you. in england and france they have great government run healthcare so why can't we. like insurence companies find ways to not help you. If your house was on fire would the fire dept. not put out your fire because the fire was caused by a prexisting condition on your house??? no they would put out the fire. why cant healthcare be that way???

My car was hit in my apartment parking lot and left a huge dent and paint from the other car on the bumper, unfortunately the other driver didn't leave a note. From the way my car was parked and where the dent is, there's really only one car that could have hit mine. I've gone to the building management to try to get the name of the person who rents the spot next to mine, with no luck. This person frequently parks across the divider line into my spot (so I'm pretty sure his car hit mine ... even the paint matches) I've also filed a police report (but they really won't do anything). Is there any other way I can get this guy's name? He hasn't parked in his spot during normal hours all week (I try to go out there with my camera a few times a day to see if he's also got bumper damage from hitting me). Thanks for your help.

We have gone from staunch stay the course ...you are a traitor if you dont to them even criticizing Bush strategy in Iraq, but still saying they won't support a pulllout as Democrats want.

The whole thing smells like a game to me.......as in trying to have their cake and eat it too. To seem to criticize Bush but when it comes to a vote in Congress to still give Bush the power to do as he wishes....which in essence is stay the course.

My question is ......are they fooling you???? and when it comes to election day 2008, will you remember that the Iraq war is Bush's war and that it is Bush who has kept it going and is keeping it going now as we speak with the help of republicans lawmakers?? Will you remember this? and will you seek to extract your pound of flesh from the right wingers on the next glorious day of reckoning at the voting booth?

Here's the lowdown: I have a cousin who is 17 years old and is pregnant for the second time (!) from some 20-something year old. We live in TX, where the age of consent is 17, but she was underage both of the times she was impregnated and I know the statute of limitation of such a charge is 10 years from her 18th birthday.

Is there evidence? Probably - I assume his name's on the birth certificate and they all openly admit he's the father, it's no secret.

I am SUPER concerned about this situation and this man who will not take responsibility for his actions and insists on setting up franchises with little girls. Granted, she was consenting and is equally stupid, but this guy's a criminal! Her parents are uber-yuppies and won't make a fuss by trying to bring charges against this guy, which is socially irresponsible!
