Why do we feel the need to do away with our culture to accommodate Muslims? Why do we have to get rid of everything Christian just because some minorities are offended? We don't we tell these Muslims how UNACCEPTABLE it is for them to come into our country and try to force their culture on us? We have Christian traditions and a national identity and we should NEVER EVER EVER change them for anyone or anything! Why don't we just kick these immature, ridiculous children to the curb and tell them to hit the road?

Like for elections? It always seems like the numbers for ballot measures are so random. How are the numbers assigned?

Sometimes, you do have great idea. But nobody would even want to stop and listen.

Now, it's your great chance here. Any idea here and now? Perhaps about our weapon, our unit, our tanks, our commanding officers, anything that you could imagine to improve! Besides, who else could give their best opinions besides our own troops in the battlefields?

We all seem to hate political correctness and we complain about a lot. But, we need to take some action! What can we do? Does anyone have any suggestions?

Um...let's see:

If someone kidnapped you in broad daylight, then waterboarded you for hours on end, is it torture or is it "severe interrogation"?

If someone kidnapped you in broad daylight, then bitchslapped you 24-7--in six hour intervals; each session lasting 10 minutes--is it torture or is it "severe interrogation"?

If someone kidnapped you in broad daylight, then subjected you to extensive periods of frigid temperatures without let up--is it torture, or is "severe interrogation"?

Because last I checked, when the POLICE interrogate a suspect, they INTERROGATE the suspect.

When the government interrogates a suspect, TORTURING them isn't beyond the realm of reason.

But don't you just love the government's *definition* of torture? It's much like Bill Clinton's interprepretation of what is, *is*.

Ah...so much for American values.

Now I know why Blackwater likes their job so much.

Do the Chinese-made plastic American flags that everybody flew starting 9/11/01, that are now lying tattered and bleached in the broken glass and oil and poison ivy by the side of every highway in the US offend you at all? I have seen scores of them in ditches, and more just barely hanging onto the cars of "patriots".

What do you say? Who is the more respectful?

Technically you are obligated for 8 years in each term. Do you face the same scrutiny if you are recalled or if you decide to reenlist at some point? Or can the change your discharge to dishonorable. Really what can they do cause technically your are not but you are not out either?

It's unbelievable! They invent lies/conduct smear campaigns against Rush Limbaugh and other decent Americans. They are miserable traitors, have nothing to contribute to this country and have nothing in a campaign to offer. No one with any sense is fooled.

This is truly despicable, but it is to be expected. It's on the level of their recruiting illegal voters and standing for every sick and rotten cause imaginable.

I predict that it will backfire on them, especially if the Republicans can get a sensible, down-to-earth candidate in there.

To me, the Democrats' worm-like behavior shows that they're fearful somehow and this is a desperate act. I think that the handwriting is on the wall and they are going to lose again.

Please note that it's part of the Communist Manifesto to denigrate and slander decent people, while holding rotten and loathsome individuals in high esteem. This won't work in America, however. People will see through it.

What do you sensible people think?

People in law enforcement and the courts say there is a technical difference between killing and murder! Can this be so? Either way its the taking of a life. When the courts sentence a person the die, they are in a sense getting away with murder, legally! With that in mind, why isn't the death penalty considered murder?

Ok, well don't really know anything about the army, but if I join the army, I heard that they would pay for your college. My mom says that I should not join the army because I can die. So my question is if I join the army so that they can pay for my college, will they send we to Iraq and is it angerous to sign up for the army?

Can any of you big govenment conspiracy therorists explain what one in attempting to do when one records an "Affidavit of Truth" with the County Recorder? The one I read said to record it with the County Recorder, but not to send it to any Government Agencies. Last time I check County Recorder is a government agency. So please explain to me, is simple small words what one is trying to accomplish recording one of these things.

This is the link I found it on

I noticed that all these poor people that quit their evil Wal-Mart job and complain about the inability to pay for health insurance and hospital and doctor visits are the same people with iPods, expensive cellphones, satelite dish, 50" HD telivisions, Playstation 3, Blu-Ray players.

Why don't we socialize electronics? The government should open up a Best-Buy.

Let's take a look at this, Fascists believe in big centralized government, limiting freedom of speech, religion, and the right to bear arms. I think the answer is pretty clear here.
