Do websites work? What would need to be on the website to keep young people coming back? What other tools might we use?

You know, people always say they don't really mind being watched all the time. Or that their biometric data will be stored and kept by the government. Or that your private calls will be tapped. Well...

WHY THE HELL NOT? Please, tell me, why you think the government is perfect and worthy enough to govern your life?

And then show themselves the cowards that they are by BLOCKING a response. Does this show the spinless nature of liberalism in America today?

Here is an email sent to me by one of YA's "best".... Then he blocked a response.

Message: You have been chewing on the aluminum foil again haven't you? Your views on Terrorism are very ignorant. I think you fit perfectly into the category I mentioned in my answer.

She really scares me. I think she might have mutipul personalities, I have seen her outside punching herself in the face, yelling at nobody, breaking all her windows out of her house... the list goes on, but all of a sudden she seems to have something against me, as soon as I walk out my front door, she looks out and starts hitting walls, throwing glass around (from broken windows) and screaming "I hate you" or "throw rocks at me, and hit my cat in the face" and other crazy things. I have called the police out. They did nothing but tell her to stop. Is there anything I can do other than move. I have a baby in my house and every night I am afriad that she could go that much futher and set fire to my house or something else crazy that might cause harm to my family.

Any suggestons?

When my boyfriend goes back to Lebanon for Ramadan and to visit with his family (his father is dying of cancer) should I worry about talking on the phone or emailing him? I mean with the "new" wiretapping edict, should I be worried that big brother will think we are speaking in code or something? He is a good man, no terrorist or the like, but with all the paranoia today, you just never know what the gov't will think. He will be gone for 2-3 months; we would only be contacting each other 2-3 times a month. That is usually the case with his yearly visits.

What do you think?

First, Democrats are a bunch of poor, Middle Class surrender monkeys. Even men Democrats are easy to make fun of. Also, In a man-dominated world, a woman Democrat President is very frightening. Women tend to be more delicate, more sensitive, and more weak than men. Men tend to be physically stronger, more hardened and emotionless, and more intimidating than women. Also, terrorists hate women and they would not be afraid of Hillarious Clinton. They are more afraid of Bush than they would ever be of Hillary. Fred Thompson is a guy who could kick the crap out of terrroists and scare the hell out of them.

They made opium poppies illegal because it came against Islam's ways. The same way Islam doesn't tolerate alcool, it regards drugs as evil. In fact the Taliban had pretty much eradicated the opium production. Please keep in mind that the only, or most likely punishment was death in varieties of not very subtil ways, beheading, stoning etc... Now that we have taken control of that country, Afgn became for the first time the world main opium producer. We all recall how the CIA introduced and sold crack in the 80's in the Watts getto.CIA personnels went on live TV explaining that, every days, cargo planes full of coke were making deliveries at army bases over the nation (For more info, go to www.youtube.com/watch?V=Mwef7qeaVCU&mode=related&search= ).Part of the money was then directed to contras and others fighting the russians in Afgn. Bin Laden being only one of them.Who are we founding now? Aliburton? Who are the victims? Is there any honest way to agree or close our eyes to this???

My boss told me a bunch of things about the job that were not true when he hired me. He flat out misled me.......and after a couple weeks on the job, I confronted him. So he told me, that he knew if he had told me the truth, I never would have taken the job. He then said, he was hoping that at least when I found out the bad stuff, that by then I would have gotten used to the situation on the ground and would accept things..even though they are not perfect. He then told me that if I quit now, that it would damage my reputation and show that I am not reliable and can't stay in a job for too long.

So I am thinking whether you political people think that its moral for him to have done that...and whether people of responsibility and leaders in our society, including politicians should be allowed to get away with such chicanery.

Why is Congress allowing this administration to cause so much damage to the U.S. constitution, our position of respectability in the world, and to the liberties of the people of the United States?

White House policy is presented as untouchable and above accountability and what really drives me crazy is the condescending tone of superiority like they think we all (including members of Congress) are uneducated children who can't understand the complexities of .....well, anything really?!?!?!

They act as if only they know what's best and the rest of us should just mind our own business!!

Isn't EVERYTHING governmental in fact the people's business!?!?!

Our system is supposed to be based on transparency!!

Isn't our government supposed to be based on a system of representatives that reflect what the people want?
Isn't this every bit as much OUR country as theirs??

It means Kill New York City, folks. A principal at a New York City school, aimed at Muslim Children, sold these t-shirts. She resigned, thank God, because a lot of Americans got PO'd. Liberals appear to think having these kind of people living in America is just dandy! What say you? Is it just Dandy to allow someone to use the 9/11 attack on NYC, and America as a propaganda tactic towards children to make them believe killing Americans is spot on!????

The Taliban kills two innocent S. Korean men and because they are supposedly going to release two sick females....should they be rewarded for that?! Should the S. Korean government give them a pat on the back for being good little boys?!

When all they really do is give money to themselves, like Barbara Bush did after Katrina.

Former first lady Barbara Bush donated an undisclosed amount of money to the Bush-Clinton Katrina Fund with specific instructions that the money be spent with an educational software company owned by her son Neil.

I am so upset with the state of affairs in the U.S. right now that I absolutely have to know if I am the only person who thinks this way. Here goes:

The other day I was discussing music with someone and they brought up R. Kelly as an artist they "loved." This upset me because, as we all know, R. Kelly was caught on tape having sex with a minor AND urinating on her. He's a pedophile. Yet people still buy his albums and support him. Why?!?! I can't figure it out for the life of me. I asked this person the same question and he honestly told me "Yah, but he can sing his @ss off." Is that all it takes to be allowed to be a pedophile, to be able to sing well?

Am I the only one who thinks this guy should be boycotted and banned from all public forums?
