Politics & Government - 22 July 2007

Anyone ever have this happen: you see a question from some ultra-conservative (let's just say Nazi, since these people really come closer to this, and I'm not trying to insult conservatives right now), you answer the question and then are blocked? What gives? O, is it kind of like the person who doesn't want to hear any opinions if they're different from his own?
Anyone experience that on here? Do tell.

Two middle school boys ran down a hall in school swatting girls on their butts. Boys will boys! Both were arrested and given 5 days in jail.

Some claim it's horseplay. Is it still horseplay if I, an adult man, run down a sidewalk and swat ladies on their butts?

Today i went out to get my mail, and i live in an apartment complex. And i had a letter from the sheriff's department stating that there was a self offender living in complex. This man was convicted of RAPE!!I feel unsafe in this place, and if my boyfriend is away i shouldn't have to worry about my safety. My question is..does the apartment complex have to move this man in, and do i have a right to get out of my lease for feeling unsafe??Would i have a valid argument??

Recent talks have suggested to win this war on Terror we need to dishearten these militant islamics. It has been suggested to do high altitude bombings over Al-quida positons. Unfortunatly they hide behind civilians which would mean civilians will be killed. But this would keep in place the troops we have thier already without sending in anymore. It would also send a message to Al-Quida.
During WWII, one night of bombing over Hamburg (for instance) resulted in over 3,000 civilian deaths but it sped up the defeat of nazi held Germany. In times of war civilians do get killed, thats a plain fact. What our your views on this proposed plan?

I do not want to hear the Liberal point of view (we know your answer)

We've all seen the lines of people waiting for days to be the first to purchase Harry Potter and the rest of the items mentioned .
Why would anyone 'feel' they 'need' them so badly on day-one ?
What's wrong with getting them tomorrow or next week or whenever ?
Personally I think it's GREED and SELFISHNESS . We're all guilty in one way or another . Many will devote all those hours for a game or a book , or even spend 3 hours watching a football game , yet are too 'busy' or 'inconvienenced' to go to church for ONE hour !!
This troubles me about our American society and I'm just wondering how many people see this as clearly as they probably should ?
I'll consider all respectful answers .
Thank you .

What are they hiding? These are Americans who need our protection.

Excerpted from:

Mark Steyn: Look who's holding hostages again

How do you feel about the American hostages in Iran?

No, not the guys back in the Seventies, the ones being held right now.

What? You haven't heard about them?

Odd that, isn't it? But they're there. For example, for two months now, Haleh Esfandiari has been detained in Evin prison in Tehran. Unfortunately, the mullahs say it's an obvious cover for a Bush spy.

Among the other Zionist-neocon agents currently held in Iranian jails are an American journalist, an American sociologist for a George Soros-funded leftie group, and an American peace activist from Irvine, Ali Shakeri, whose capture became known shortly after the United States and Iran held their first direct talks since the original hostage crisis.

Last week, the Iranians paraded their U.S. hostages all over TV as they confessed to engaging in espionage. . . Steyn

Overpopulation, Islamic terrorism, floods, the military crisis in Iraq and a dependency on fossil fuels! The future doesn´t look too bright.

This article on the impending fuel crisis is very interesting: http://environment.independent.co.uk/climate_change/article2790960.ece

The Brown government´s current spat with Russia doesn´t look to clever now - though of course it is designed as a smokescreen to divert attention away from the issues surrounding Britain surrendering her sovereignty to the EU.

Anyway, I recommend you read the article, but here´s an extract:

´Humanity is approaching an unprecedented crisis when not enough oil and gas will be produced to keep industrial civilisation running, the world's top oilmen warned last week.´

Russia´s in a very strong position here, with around 12% of the world´s known oil reserves and 56% of the world´s natural gas...Brown might do well to remember this.

I would like to find out what is the process that one must go through to become a special agent in federal govt, without having to go through general state police work. Is there such a way? and what degree is most likely to get you there? In Australia.

Just after 4 a.m. Wednesday morning, a drowsy Hillary Rodham Clinton stood in the Senate chamber during the all-night debate on Iraq and declared matter-of-factly: "I have called for the strategic redeployment of U.S. forces out of Iraq for several years." That surprised anti-war activists camped out near the Capitol, listening to the speech on the radio. Clinton, they knew, had supported withdrawal from Iraq for less than two years, 20 months to be exact.

When I was hanging out at my local gay strip club last night, I noticed almost every car or truck in the parking lot had a "W" bumper sticker on them. Who woulda thunk it, huh?

i am so tired of politicians who have infected me with this horrible disease and i know there is no relief in site, months to go until the elections for it to grow and expand. it is almost as bad as the cancer i have.

is there no politician or elected leader that honestly thinks of the good of the cournty rather than their own agenda and just trying to prove how the current administration has failed us?

the surge was deemed a failure before it started yet i hear no suggestions for a valid solution. i am sick of hearing about all the problems and sick of never hearing of a solution to our sad state of affairs.

i am sick because i see no heroes on the horizon and it should scare us all because we really are at war and the world has a vested interest in the outcome.

I mean, let's face it immigration is the cause of all the other problems in Beautiful Britain from crime, failed NHS, bad football, bad food, bad comedy, useless Public Transportation and overwhelmed Public Services (even stupid ignorant questions on YA) - so why hasn't the bad weather been blamed on immigrants from outside the golden shores of these Sceptred Iles too?

The statute provides for Voting by the legislators & Memebers of Parliament-- Peoples' Reps.
People sent in their sentiments for Dr Kalam to have a second term.
Nearly all political groups opposed it. Does it amount to acting against PUBLIC WISH?
If yes, have the peoples' Reps lost their mandate to represent their electorate?
If yes, to what effect?
