Its people like you who are going to screw america up when it comes november 2008 .. your voting for who everyone else likes, not whos better for the job.

Me, i like to support whos better and whos right for the job. Isn't that what we're supposed to focus on?
I'll be behind Gravel until the end .. if he's not on the ballot i'm writting him in. I'm not going to just jump on some band wagon ....

I'm voting FOR THE BEST .. NOT WHO HAS MORE $$ AND WHO'S MORE POPULAR but who's the right man for the job.

I wish more people were like this. Not "oh hillary is front runner, i'll vote for her"

You wanna know the truth!!? SHE'S REALLY NOT FRONT RUNNER.
You honestly don't think theres people who work around the clock taking those damn polls, voting for those stupid top 3 Dem's (hillary, barack and edwards) .. why do you think this is? Theres a reason they want these people in office.

These small candidates DO have a chance if people open their eyes. Why much u say they dont?

A 4-Star Army General who has won nearly every single award and honor offered by his peers and superiors? The General was confirmed by the US Senate 81-0, THAT'S EIGHTY ONE TO NOTHING for his position, but now that his report is expected to indicate that we're finally on the right track in Iraq, the two biggest stooges in the United States Senate, Dirty Harry Reid, the land swindle king of Nevada, and "Dick" Durbin, a product of the Chicago/Dailey political machine (which is somewhat worse than the old Tammany Hall Group in 19th Century New York City) are going to pre-empt the report of an acclaimed military specialist and preach to the few pathetic souls who will actually listen to them, that Petraeus is either a fool or a liar. They wonder why all of America is rejecting the Democratic Party? Here's a good example of their sickening partisan politics and their monumental disengenuousness. These two charlitans should be tarred & feathered, and run out of town on a rail.

Everytime our boys get bin Laden cornered, our whitehouse occupants tell them to stand down. Now bin Laden releases a tape with a political messsage slamming... democrats!

Seems to me, just about everytime Lil 'w' needs a boogeyman, Osama bin Laden provides him with tape. This tape was even pre-announced! It appears, bin Laden has a great publicity department and now he's even got Ronald Reagan's old make-up artist working for him. Or is it just me?

I am in the process of moving and I am currently on Unemployment. My question is: I recently recieved a letter from EDD saying that I send in my claim form late, and they are schedualling and interview with me on Sept. 13 between 10:00 am and 12:00pm. The reason I sent in my form late, almost 2 weeks late is because I am in the process of moving and all of my personal belongings I have boxed and I could not find my claim form that was suppose to be sent out. After going through all of my moving boxes I found the claim form and mailed it immediatley on Sept 2, 2007. The claim form was due on August 19th 2007. EDD wants an interview with me, via telephone, to discuss if I am determined eligible for my benefits. Can someone help me with this. What should I do?

People try to point out the militia, as a defining feature that means you can take guns away from people.
The PEOPLE, as stated in the amendment, which ALSO seems to be ignored, ARE the militia for a Time of emergency, the power of the second amendment allows the Entire nation to stand against any threat on their own Soil. And the Most strict gun laws, of all laws, no matter where they are, have the highest crime rates. it's a fact that everybody having guns translates to less crime. A gun does not drive a man to kill, Only a mad man can kill, and he will kill with or without a gun.

My son is in week three of Navy Boot camp. The first week he was there I rec'd an information letter. I was given an address to mail letters and that is the address I have been using. However, I rec'd a letter (my first) from my son today. He did not mention anything about receiving any of the many letters I or my family have mailed him. The return address he wrote on the envelope is different than the address I was given to send him mail. The division is the same, but the ship number is different. Does anyone out there know if the address I was given to use is a centralized mail processing address, or if maybe my son was moved to a different ship? Which address should I use? Thanks in advance for a quick response.

How ridiculous is this? It just goes to show the mindset of American's double standard today.

The world will be a scary place if America actually have enough power to enforce favorable laws and ruling for its own people but denied non-US citizens of the same rights.

How about reparations for Slavery, Agent Orange, Nagasaki and Hiroshima, the Native Americans, and countless of civilians death led by US led invasion?

People in other part of the world feel the same loss when their parent died too. No wonder people hates America. Americans only think for themselve and doesn't give a **** about the world and then preach democracy and freedom.

Given that the Koran is very clear in its aims of subduing the world to Islam. This is preached inevery Mosque in the world to their young people. They have already begun the war....but they didn't tell us. In Sydney , Melbourne and Brisbane, the moslems that occupy our lands were dancing in the parks with joy on Sept 11th at the news of the attack on the twin towers. The news papers had photos of them .
Just how long will it be before there is all out war in every city in the world.

One Racist Committee member
Two College Professors
FIVE ELECTED US OFFICIALS

This is their Agenda, they are open about it.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=msc719IKjIo

Watch this video, See the names and positions held.

Then come back and answer the questions.

Are we in a war?
Are we being invaded?
Should we begin to fight back, with force if they won’t leave on their own?

Joe Bacca, US Senator: “The Latinos are coming….Our Agenda is to increase our numbers…We CAN”T go back, we are in a civil WAR….United Latinos will win.”

Armondo Navarro, Professor-UC Riverside: “…so we can wage a war against those racists that are trying to continue to discriminate…”

Jose Angel Gutierrez, Professor—U of Texas, Arlington
Antonio Villaraigosa—Mayor of Las Angeles
Fabian Nunez—Speaker of CA. State Assembly
Herman Bacca—Chicano Committee on Civil Rights
Art Torres—Chairman-CA Democratic Party

Are these people using their positions to destroy America?
Are we being invaded?
Should we use force to make them leave?
Are we in a war?

HR 1940 would end the practice of granting automatic citizenship to the U.S.-born children of illegal aliens. Nearly every other country, including all members of the European Union, requires that at least one parent be a citizen or permanent resident for a child to automatically become a citizen.
The Birthright Citizenship Act of 2007, by Rep. Nathan Deal (R-GA), would amend the Immigration and Nationality Act to eliminate birthright citizenship.
Our current policy results in over 300,000 additional citizens from anchor babies each year. The demographic impact is far greater because their families stay and bring in additional relatives. Anchor babies are eligible to sponsor their illegal alien parents and other relatives when they turn 21. Moreover, taxpayers pick up the tab for the medical costs and subsequent welfare outlays because of the child's citizenship status.
The 14th Amendment, passed to guarantee the citizenship of freed slaves, grants citizenship to anyone born here and "subject to the jurisdiction" of the United States. HR 1940 acknowledges the right of birthright citizenship established by the 14th amendment to the Constitution, but says a person born in the United States is considered "subject to the jurisdiction" of the United States only if one of the parents is a citizen, an alien lawfully admitted for permanent, or an alien performing active service in the armed forces.

George W. Bush hadn't:

Backed off Clinton administration's anti-terrorism efforts.
Shelved the Hart-Rudman report.

Appointed new anti-terrorism task force under Dick Cheney. The group did not even meet before 9/11.

Called for cuts in anti-terrorism efforts by the Department of Defense.

Gave no priority to anti-terrorism efforts by Justice Department.

Ignored warnings from Louis Freeh, George Tennant, Paul Bremer, and Richard Clarke about the urgency of terrorist threats.

Halted Predator drone tracking of Osama bin Laden.

Did nothing in wake of August 6 C.I.A. report to president saying Al Qaeda attack by hijack of an airliner almost certain.

Failed to order any coordination of intelligence data, missed opportunity to stop the 9/11 plot.

Fox reported that "Al Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden will soon address the American people regarding the sixth anniversary of the September 11 attacks, terror monitoring groups have said.The SITE Intelligence Group said an internet announcement included a photo of Bin Laden from the upcoming video which showed his beard..."

Does anyone here agrees with me that this is something the government sends out routinely and deliberately prior to the coming 9/11 to scare and indoctrinate the American people, as they have done for the past 40 years?

Of course I'm talking about the questions from Republicans coyly asking if Democrats are happy about the support from bin Laden and Castro.

Maybe the Democrats have better common sense. I continue to be amazed by the tendency of Republicans to hang on every word uttered by terrorists like bin Laden or dictators like Castro. They speak and the Republicans jump. Do the Republicans think so much of these guys that they value their opinion so highly? I'd hate to think that's true. I'll just continue to believe the obvious. That they will use anything, even the opinions of terrorists and dictators, to throw mud at their fellow Americans. That's bad enough without imagining they actually hold bin Laden's or Castro's opinion in high regard.

Does anyone else find this not only annoying, but shameful?
I'm not even a Democrat and I think it's just sad.
