Senator Russ Fiengold (D WI) said the president should be censured. He says, the Presidents actions and lack of action deserve it. He has not called for impeechment, just a slap on the hands for endangering troops and taking advantage of the constitution.

Great Forumites as we appraoch the 62nd rememberance of the first use of of the nuclear bomb, can we say that it will never be dropped on any soil again. Keep in mind the recent threat of Iran. Keep in mind the recent tension between presidents Bush & Puttin over the Missile Defence Shield.

America came close to using it during the recent Iraqi war with the coalition forces. War analysts believe that President Bush made a "covert" expression of that possibility when he warned serious consequences should late President Saddam and his men use biological & chemical weapon on the allied forces.

Incidentally, though the Pearl Harbour disaster that triggered off the use of "little boy" and "fat man" seems less provocating than the incident of 9 11, America did not use the nuke. Possibly because Bin Laden and his men are "army without territory" unlike Japan.

So, can we say that the stockpiles of the nuclear arsenal in the silos of the world are just there for detterence?

TEHRAN (AFP) - Iran is to launch a new crackdown Monday on slack dressing that targets both men and women whose clothing and haircuts are deemed to be unIslamic, police said.
"The police will act against those whose trousers are too short, have skin-tight coats, shirts with Western logos and Western hairstyles," said Ahmad Reza Radan, the head of Tehran's police force..................Women in Iran are obliged to cover all bodily contours and their heads but in recent years many have pushed the boundaries by showing off bare ankles and fashionably styled hair beneath their headscarves.

I thought the Diebold voting machines were all rigged so only a Republican could win, right? So why are they even trying, when the fate of the election is already known?

Or was the whole "voter fraud" thing a big joke?

His administration is a wreck. What happened?

Why doesn't he ride along on the Space Shuttle and step onto the ISS wearing a cool space suit?

Can't he do SOMETHING to get his fan base back?

(BESIDES attacking another country, that is.)

Read this article and tell me I'm imagining things. This city is basicly giving illegal immigrants citizenship despite what the law states. Giving them a Valid ID so they can go around the legal process.
They say we should feel sorry for them because they can't report a crime comitted against them because they are ILLEGAL. Well if they were legally in this country they wouldn't have to worry about that now would they?
This pisses me off to no end. Why bother having immiration laws if some dumb assed city is going to make it easy for the ILLEGALS and possibly terrorist to blend in with legal citizens?
New Haven can get away with this but other cities that pass ordinences making it illegal to rent housing to illegals are getting sued.
Ok, I'm ready for all the "Your a racist" crap. And of course we will not be able to debate this. I know there are people out there that feel the same as I do on this issue.

would it be realistic to put the human population into a standstill so that it wont grow any more? i personally think that 90% of all problems comes from the fact that there are just too many humans around. because of this, humans are no longer diginified and are not respected to the level they should. personally, homeless, murderers, thives, thugs, raperers etc.. just disgust me. they are scums of humanity. i would much rather have 5 million people running UK than 65 million. i think most of the jobs that are done by humans can also be done by robots, 5 million very well educated and trained in different areas so that everything runs well and no room for scums. liveing shouldnt be free, it should be earned.

"It would be helpful to have a person leading the country who understands how the economy works and has actually managed something," the former Massachusetts governor told reporters after a GOP fundraiser. "In the case of the three Democratic front-runners, not one of them has managed even a corner store, let alone a state or a city."

"I wanted to focus on the Democrats," he said. "By and large, the best way to further my interest is to let people know what I would do and to distinguish that from what the Democrats would do."

His prime target was Clinton.

"Hillary Clinton just gave a speech the other day about her view on the economy. She said we have been an on-your-own society. She said it's time to get rid of that and replace that with shared responsibility and we're-in-it-together society," Romney told the crowd. "That's out with Adam Smith and in with Karl Marx."

Can someone please explain, without the name calling and lib/con nonsense, why they are against the death penalty in cases where the perp so clearly deserves it? These scumbags that shot the NYC cops, between the three of them haven't lived a clean day in their miserable lives, the chick in Ohio that killed her infant by cooking her in a microwave, or the two girls who stranggled a 91 year old woman for a gold chain and some bath towels.
Again, without the name calling, can someone against the death penalty explain their rational to me in a clear intellectual explanation?
