Aren't all our efforts wasted in Iraq unless the Iraqi government gains the support of the people of Iraq? Are we just leading a horse to water in Iraq?

Not just Californina, but New Jersey, Kentucky and Florida are in the process of getting rid of DREs. If we can't trust Diebold and other makers of hackable machines, then undectected alterations put good elections in danger. I am glad we are going to some kind of paper backed system. We will need complete audits as well.
Good for you, California!

Lets say someone sue me for several millions of dollars. If I dont have the money, say I am a busboy earning 1500 a month, how am I going to pay? Where is the money going to come from anyway?

"The U.S. invasion of Iraq was not preemption; it was ... an avaricious, premeditated, unprovoked war against a foe who posed no immediate threat but whose defeat did offer economic advantages."

Michael Scheuer, the CIA's senior expert on al-Qaeda until he quit in disgust with the Bush administration.

Can you argue with this?

I know it's quite an ironic question to somebody, but I need to find an answer 4 this. Many capitalist leaders say that the Socialism is a dangerous threat to the freedom world, and they say that the Reds were nearly destroyed after the 1991 crisis. But now, we Socialists are still here, and the South America is nearly in the left-wing's hand. What I want to ask is, while some right-wing guys always say that we are weak and easy to be destroyed, why can't they destroy us? Ha, if anyone answer that question correctly, he(she) is my friend!
