I was in a car accident while driving a company auto. X-boss was sued and had to pay the other party because car had no insurance. Now, he wants me to pay him. He threat me to take me and my husband to court. Can he really do that? I paid the fine for the accident, but it was his car with no insurance.

Gonzales resigned as Attorney General and Bush said he wants to replace him with Michael Chertoff who was the director of FEMA during the Katrina crisis. Is there no end to Bush's stupidity?

Seriously folks, the economy's benchmarks under Bush are at the peak of the interest rate cycle what they were under Clinton at the trough of the interest rate cycle - - - - and I thought we all agreed, economic performance under Clinton was pretty good.

Is Iraq THAT bad that we overlook the strong economy? And why do people refer to Iraq in the plural - - "failures" - - - even if Iraq is a failure, it's ONE failure.

My friend showed me this article: http://www.oldamericancentury.org/14pts.htm

It says some things, like America becoming fascist. Its so chilling and it just might be true. Lousy Democrats cant inspire anything, voter apathy, GOP takes over the government, might end up as worst as the worst of Communist China.

If this does happen, im moving to Europe. It may be a socialism there, but at least they respect people.

What will remind Americans of democracy, voting, and having a voice in government? We have a lot of media, especially online. Perhaps if more people vote, even if the opposition to the GOP is horrible, we might not have a facist goverment.

Rightists are so mean, and leftists aren't too smart...

Israel has suffered more terrorist attacks than any other modern day country . And after years of intensifying their security and informing their people , they now live with less terrorist attacks than before . In fact , their own government credits the people themselves as the 'Frontline on Terror' . Vigilance . Reporting suspicious behavior , etc .

Have they been successful because their people or media diminished the threat ? (laughable)

Do U.S. Republicans diminish the threat ?-- Nahhh , I don't think so .

So Who Does Diminish The Threat ? Hmmm .
And WHY ?

Why Would Any Responsible American Diminish The Threat From Terrorist Radical Islam ?

Ya know , as a side note , I can recall numerous liberal posts and politicians who not only dismiss the threat as 'small' , 'few' , and 'more likely to get killed in a tornado'. Does that help ?
Did Israelis say those things ?

And how many times have we seen a liberal say that we should learn based upon what 'other' countries did ?

People are protesting a ferry that runs between Hawaiian islands for this reason:

"The protesters and environmentalists argue that the ferry's plan to ply 400 miles of Hawaii waters each day endangers whales, threatens to spread invasive species and will worsen traffic and pollution."

Here are the questions:
1. Which party supports these ideas?
2. Is this group hostile toward human beings?
3. If you are a human, why would you vote for the party that houses this group's agenda?

I'm not a liberal or conservative,but what troubles me is that this president has turned republican against republican and given the democrats the upper hand,the danger in all this is that it might turn into a one party system that eventually turn into dictatorship,especially with persons like Ted Kennedy in power.

Lying to congress, and in a State of the Union address to congress, about the presence of WMDs in Iraq is an objective, federal crime, not a subjective crime, AN OBJECTIVE, FEDERAL CRIME.

Outing a covert CIA operative, or shielding those that out such an operative, is an objective, federal crime, not a subjective crime, AN OBJECTIVE, FEDERAL CRIME.

Stop saying that Bush and Cheney have not broken any laws. These are the two broken laws that we know about, but they are objectively the law of the land, and these two criminals have broken them before the entire nation and the entire world.

They will bring the Republican party down with them (a good thing, actually) if they are not brought to the congressional court of impeachment.

A stubborn, imperial president also ignores Republican congressmen and Senators.

He is also ignoring the public's need to get our troops out of Iraq's civil war.

And impeachment just means that they are accused of their crimes, not found guilty.

When you consider that the attorney-general is probably the most important and powerfull cabinet officer (domestic matters, anyway), doesn't it seem strange that there is almost a custome of Presidents appointing AGs who are personally close to them? I understand that William Rogers was a close, personal friend of Richard Nixon's. John Mitchell was his campaign manager. And, of course, John Kennedy appointed his own brother. Alberto Gonzales goes back a long way with George Bush.
I've never heard it said that the President must be above politics, though it would be nice. But surely we expect the head of the Justice Dept. to be above this.
Would it be a good idea if the Senate turned down nominees on the grounds that they are too close? I see no reason why they couldn't.

they have the right to go around the world "correcting" the cultures of everyone else? Why do you think you have the right to tell everyone else what laws they should have, what customs they should follow? Europeans and their descendants, the Americans, have been trying to spread Christianity and western style gov't for centuries at the pint of a gun. The people of the America's, Africa and the ME had been doing just fine for 1000's of years, before the West invaded. Now they have nation states, artificial boarders, armies, wars, poverty, starvation, disease, a life out of balance with the natural world ...with their overlords, the West, telling them what kind of gov't and religion they can have, what customs they can follow, food they eat, clothes they wear, when they can sneeze. I may not like some of what they do, but their culture is a 1000 years older than mine, and 1000's of miles away , it's not my place to tell them who they can be, and what they can believe.
