Politics & Government - 10 September 2007

I am a Voter... I appreciate my rights and take advantage of them.
I want to know. Why do people/americans actually complain about what is going on in our Goverment but they dont take the time or energy to vote for what they believe in?

If we pull out, The terrorists will cut off our foreign oil supply. Gas prices will soar. And has anyone thought about the soldiers. I mean, ask then what they think? Because the people at home are not the ones fighting in a war.

I Do... I always vote... Even if there is not a canidate that I soley agree with. I feel that I am using my rights. I find the canidate that I agree with most and vote for them.
I do not understand people that , do not vote, b/c they disagree with one or two things about a runner....
I also do not understand someone complaining about problems with the goverment when they havent even bothered to take 30 mins out of their day and vote for someone that they agree with....

...that British Police said not so long ago that :

"When a child has been missing for more than 48 hours it is unlikely that the child will be found alive (...) child normally killed within 48 hrs of abduction !"

Yet everyone was very surprised when, 3 months after Madeleine disappeared, the Portuguese police said that Madeleine is "probably dead" ! ???

I honestly don't remember where I read that but I did read it.

Anyone else remember it ??

Slandering a 4-star United States General by calling him General "Betraeus" demonstrates to moderate swing voters just how incredibly radical these people are whom Hillary Rodham and Barack Half-Black Obama are beholden to.

One of my best friends is leaving in 2 hours to go to Oklahoma for BCT and AIT training. What is that, and will he be ok? Nothing bad happens during training does it?

Each time he releases a video, neocons go crazy, comparing bin Laden's words to those of "liberal Democrats." The man is a terrorist; is it so much of a stretch to think that he's a liar, that he's not saying anything he believes, but that he's just trying to cause conflict and controversy in this country?

Sounds like he's succeeding...

No one thought that was even possible and yet democrats are still screaming that we are less safe now. What is that assertion based on? Like Bush or hate Bush don't we still have to give the man kudos for 6 years terror free?

Honestly, this weapon was first developed when the Nintendo first came out.

Now there are Xbox 360s and super-advanced computers, and this bird hasn't fired a shot in anger yet.

Is this thing pork or something? The F-35 seems to be moving along steadily, why not this POS?

I bet a remote-controlled airplane from Wal-Mart could shoot an F-22 down by now, it's so old...

In his new speech he talks about "no blood for oil," global warming, and he praises liberal hero Noam Chomsky. Maybe the better question is why are the liberals using the same talking points as Osama bin Laden? This feels like the twilight zone.

Does anyone else find it alarming that a major political party in the U.S. appears to be closer aligned with Bin Laden than our own president and our country? You people can go ahead and bash me and call me names all you want, but Bin Laden's speech speaks for itself. Here is full unedited transcript of his speech.

If you read this, how can anyone deny that he sounds like a liberal democrat.

I see people often get angry at people who say undocumented and say that they are PC for saying it. I don't think that is reasonable because saying undocumented is accurate so I don't care.

Does it bother you?

p.s. I say illegals but that is just me and most people know my honest views about illegal immigration. You can see my questions and answers or just ask me if you want to know.

IF YOU CAN REFUTE ANY OF THE FACTS, PLEASE PROVIDE LINKS. OTHERWISE, PLEASE DO NOT JUST SPEW RIGHTWING RAGE AT REALITY.

General Petraeus is a military man constantly at war with the facts. In 2004, just before the election, he said there was “tangible progress“ in Iraq and that “Iraqi leaders are stepping forward.”
