Which 5 countries will be at the top of the world then?
As it is quite clear that Russia & USA will remain rivals for the years to come & Russia has strong ties with China. So what will be done by America to counter balance the Russia-China power house.
Will Britain have any role to play in it or will America use India for that purpose.

The cure is always 10,000x worse than the disease.

At this point we should just let the mortgage market correct itself. Will be sinking good money after bad money trying to rescue mortgages that should have never been funded in the first place.

I ask because you always hear people saying that they can't talk about what branch of the U.S. military they belonged to. I have known U.S. Army Rangers, U.S. Navy Seals and others who have been part of elite special training forces and have never encountered any who could not state their branch, company, unit and payrate to me. I wonder if their are some special services that I am not aware of who have signed something that says they can not make statements to anyone including civilians about their level of training in the U.S. military.

Hundreds of U.S. soldiers are immigrants that go to war for you, they are looking for their citizenship and many of them don't come back. Most of them are used as bait, and go to the front lines. Then Why do so many people hate them, because they are black, Mexican, Cuban, Puerto Rican?
They are defending you and they come from other parts of the world to fight your wars...
I don't get it.

If a member of the U.S. military is a trained Sniper, or Sharpshooter, can they disclose that to civilians? Or have they signed something that states they can not discuss the fact with anyone outside of the U.S. military?

What's the difference between redefining a marriage and redefining a citizen???

Bush claims that "renegade judges are redefining marriage (which is traditionally defined as a union between one man and one woman) as a way to promote gay marriage". He sees this as a bad thing. Our US Constitution, however, doesn't have an opinion on the matter either way.

BUT...When Bush signed "Connor's Law" into effect, what he did was redefine citizen to include fetuses. Our own US Constitution doesn't even do this. Fetuses are now granted rights under the Constitution. Most noticeably the right to life.

Isn't it hypocritical of our President to support one redefinition but not another???

I'm wondering what the next step is going to be. Remember how Bush wanted to amend the Constitution to ban gay marriages and that didn't go thru? I'm wondering what's going to happen next? Possibly an attempt to amend the 1st Amendment to read "Born, Naturalized, or Conceived by Citizen Parents".

Which was back in the seventies. Yet he didn't leave his position in the house of Representatives until 1997.

Why would Democrats support a man like that?

Did Foley or Haggerty get standing ovations from Republicans?

I think not.

Larry Craig's hypocrisy is nauseating, but the Dems are in no position to be smug.

What if Larry Craig said at a press conference this afternoon that he was switching parties to become a Democrat?

Would the Democrats let him join the party, or reject him because he's a gay pervert?

If they reject Craig, would Democrats then reject Barny Franks?

This would be hilarious!
