I know some of your remember that I mentioned how I supported Bush and the war. I made my user name based on that. I am so sad and I regre every day for spporting and trusting Bush. We all got fooled and I am so sorry for ever voting for Bush.

I lost my brother in Iraq over 2 years ago. I hope none of you ever experience what I have gone through. Please I beg you all to save the lives of your loved ones and bring them home. You can support them only when they are alive.

It is so sad and I fal into tears when I think of my brave and proud brother. PLeae do no let your loved ones get seriosly injured or worse. I too spported all of it. Now I regret it and know my brother died in vain for this lie of a war. Please for he love of your family and friends keep them safe before it's too late.

You can't support them when they are gone.

I am so sorry.

If a man lives in, cleans, works on the yard, etc. he's pitching in, he's a caretaker, he could reasonably expect a salary, etc.
If a woman does it for any one else but a husband she's a bum. Can't expect to get paid or even be considered pitching in because women are expected to do free housework whereever they go. But if a man does it, it's actual work. See what I'm saying? Have you ever come across that. What do you think? what's the solution for a single woman in that position?

For the record, I'm a Democrat. I'm not trying to be sarcastic either.

After watching Ron Paul get bullied by Gulianni it makes me wonder, what would his explanation for 9/11 be(naturally he didnt offer a response to Paul's)? If you had to be completely honest with yourself what would your explanation for 9/11 be?I admit Ron Paul did put himself into an awkward position but i think its a position we are going to have to face whether we like ir or not.

My husband deployes in Sept. and I wasn't all that concerned until just recently when I looked at he calendar. I have been to some FRG meetings but I'm not sure if they would actually give me the support that I need. I'm not living near the Army Base that he is stationed at. Are there any outside resource that are available? This is his first deployment and he will be going to afgan. I don't hear that much about afgan on the news and don't know why which makes me worried.

The White House Reports says that on 9-11 that President Bush claimed he was watching TV in his limousine when he saw the first plane hit the Twin Towers.

If true, this was an amazing statement, because there is no record of that event being broadcast over TV.

Why should it have been?

There was no reason for a TV camera to be focused on the Twin Towers before the plane crash. How could the President see what didn't exist?

No way! W did something I am proud of. I almost can't believe it....

The new rules, which take effect in 30 days, say that, under some circumstances, employers will be required to fire employees with non-matching Social Security numbers or face legal sanctions.

A liberal society is characterized by freedom of thought for individuals, limitations on power, the rule of law, the free exchange of ideas, a market economy, free private enterprise, and a transparent system of government in which the rights of all citizens are protected. In the 21st century, this usually means liberal democracy with open and fair elections, where all citizens have equal rights by law. This from wikipedia...

They allowed this to continue solely because the torturers were Black,and perhaps it was part of their "Culture" to torture little girls>

NOW these same Social Workers have allowed a 17 month old little boy to be tortured to death solely because the torturers were from "a large family of "Travellers".
TRAVELLERS: The latest in a long line of Minorities who can do whatever they want.
Have no fear!

The case is simple. I hold a licence in a stupid state and it is revoked. I really need a licence in order to get around. Please tell me if you know of any state that will allow you to get a licence in that state. In the wave of technology... I think they all are connected. Please refrain from judgements or smart comments... I just need to know yes or know.

The judge told him that he could plead or we could have it adjourned so that he could prepare for trial.. he decided to prepare for trial ( even though isnt it contemp of court to not go to anger managemnet since he was ordered to).. anyway no i think he will try to bring back my charge since his did not go away.. i was wondering if that is possible?

Isn't Hillary Clinton similar to Kerry? Aren't both flip floppers.

Isn't Obama like Dean back in 2004. Both were against the war from the start.

Edwards just looks pretty no matter what.

Who will play the part of George W. Bush?

A few Libs can get a Republican's account suspended in part because so many Libs have plenty of time to spend on YA.

A person's post should be given credit by YA if it gets a handful of "thumbs up." Those thumbs up should be taken into consideration before accepting a "warning" as anything other than politically motivated.

Why are a few people who get upset because someone points out a weakness in their party allowed to get someone's account suspended?

At times, it seems like the DNC has paid workers sitting on YA just to get rid of Republican YA acounts. I'm sure that's not the case. But, it's a weakness of YA.

YA would be far more credible and balanced if it reworked its rules in a way that would allow more Republicans to not become "top contributors".

Why would anyone respect a site that who's "tops" are so biased to one political side in numbers?

If you for one minute don't think this is true, check the source below!

A conversation between a Customer and Bank of America:

Bank:This is the Bank of America, can I help you?

Customer: Yes, I want to cancel my account. I don't want to do business with you any longer.

Bank: Why?

Customer: You're giving credit to illegal immigrants and don't think it's right. I'm taking my business elsewhere.

Bank : Well, Mr. Customer, we don't want to see you do that, but we can't stop you. I'll help you close the account.

What is your account number?

Customer: (gives account number)

Bank: For security purposes and for your protection, can you please give me the last four digits of your Social Security number?

Customer: No.

Bank: Mr. Customer, I need to verify your information, but in order to help you, I'll need verification of who you are.

Customer: Why should I give you my social security number? The reason I'm closing my account is that your bank is issuing credit cards to illegal immigrants who don't have social security numbers. You are targeting that audience and want their business. Let's say I'm an illegal immigrant and you've given me a credit card. I have a question about it and call for assistance.

You wouldn't be asking me for a Social Security number, would you?

Bank: No sir, I wouldn't.

Customer: Why not?

Bank: Because you would have pressed '2' to speak in Spanish. We don't ask for that information when calling in on the Spanish line.

CHECK THIS OUT ON SNOPES! IT'S TRUE ! And it's outrageous.

Although CONS won't admit it they are absolutly crushed that Karl Rove was forced out. As we all know, he's become a liability.

My question is "Do the bitter tears of CONS bring joy to your heart ?"
