I'm a male. I'm 19 ys old, and I'm a 1st generation Irish American. Both my parents r from Ireland & r both ethnically Irish. I love only one country though & that country is America. I have no political or national loyalty 2 Ireland only 2 America. I understand that Americans intermarry w/people of different ethnic origins (like German, Polish, & English 4 example) & races (Asian, Black, Hispanic etc.), but since I have pure origins I don't want 2 break that apart (and people don't tell me about how the Irish are made up of Celts, Danes, Anglo-Saxon etc. because i know and thats what makes the Irish irish---those combinations made what we know as the Irish so there is such a thing as being pure Irish). Like I said though i won't break that up. I will only marry and produce someone who is of 100% Irish origin . I'm an American only but I want to carry on this Irish ethnic pureness. R there any pure Irish-Americans out there or other pure ethnic Americans who wish to do the same thing?

Like most Americans I’m a little conservative on some issues, a little liberal on others. And llike most Americans, I’m pretty moderate. If we’re such a great democracy why the hell do we elect right wing or left wing nutcases who don't really speak for us, don’t really represent the majority of us? Can’t we do better than choosing between extremes?

Why do we keep putting wolves in charge of the hen house, so to speak? Can't we do better than this?

My opinion is this. i'm no fan of police brutality, nor do i like the idea of police state or whatever conspirators are cooking up nowaday. but hey, lets not throw violent words at each other, espacially you guys who are anti-cops. from what i notice, people are increasingly getting anti-cop, and are saying really nasty stuff about them. not all cops are bad, and can't really blame them for what they do. blame the system. cops are human too. they serve the public. yet unfortunately, humans get currupted, and whenever cops see disturbance, they think what they do is nessesary, like tasering disturbing people. look at UF student for questioning john kerry, and other places. yet however we may think it is bad, we cannot argue back with mindless ranting and such. without cops, this country will go down. look at martin luther king jr. God rest his soul, and his use of love and peace to fight hate. do you think it was a failure? NO! i think we should use the same method against the currupt.

I don't think Liberals really care about a Soldiers life. I think death of anything that says Republican is their dream. If I am wrong, explain the why, and the how, please. My experience on this forum, watching News, and life, say this is TRUE. I think Libs have a lot of explaining to do! Here is your format. Go ahead?

I ,as a Veteran from 1969 to 1975, brought an Islamic beliving man into my American Legion. This man is a decent hard working man. You'd think I had a disease the way everyone looked at me. Why would they get upset over me bring in a law abiding decent person into the legion?

My husband is joining the Army NG or the Reserves. He is excited & ready to go to war if that occurs he is either choosing Computer Programming or Visual Information Operator. I am so afraid of him going to war and being apart for so long. We have a 5 month old little girl and I don't want her to loose her bond with her dad. Based on his chosen MOS will the probability for him to be sent to war high or low?

Being with all the illegal immigration and crime, and the president/government not doing nothing about it. Do you think Americans will become so overwhelmed with anger as to what is going on and rebel?

A total loser? he is anti America, anti Military and says American soliders are criminals. Yet he chooses to live & prosper under the blanket of freedom that our military has provided for us all. Jungone do me a favor, If you hate this country and thoes who protect it, leave Ann Arbor and America. I dont think we would be losing much.

Anyways, I am only 13 years old, and is reallllllly interested in joining the army. The only problem is that I am a permanent resident (came to California when i was 5.) , but my parents won't become a U.S. citizen. If i become a U.S citizen at age 18, can i still enlist in the Army? Thank You all for answering.

When does a human autopsy law apply to a person?
Does you county have to ask for permission from the deceased’s family to have an autopsy to be performed? I ask because I read from a newspaper of a woman who died from a fatal car accident and you would figure the cause of her death would be from the accident but the county cut her open for no reason.

Versus:

Yellowcake purchase attempts
Aluminium tubes for uranium enrichment
Mobile chem labs
And being involved with 9/11

The Bush admin DID LIE about all of the above and only their inner circle and the CIA had proof that they were lying.

without being criticized for your opinions? I like to ask questions about Bush because I'm curious to see how people respond, yet lately I've been getting attacked for it. Why is that? I don't go around attacking people who don't like Hillary Clinton just because I DO like her....everyone has a right to express their feelings and ask other people about theirs. If I don't have a genuine answer to a question, I ignore it and move on.

Does anyone else find it frustrating that they're attacked for their opinions instead of getting answers to their actual questions?

Yeah, I'm sure that if Prince was going to choose, he would choose Clinton over Bush. Luckily, he doesn't have to choose either the Democratic head or Republican head of the Lobbyist monster that we call the two party system.

Even though I think Bush/Cheney and gang have been a disaster, I want to read something that you think is balanced, and covers the Iraq war and this administration's interpretation of the Constition as it applies to suspected terrorists.

What is Iran ? What is his history ? Why did Egypt (christian-muslim nation) defend itself against Israeli invasion in the 60ies ?

Why Almaninedjad did underline he has no homosexual rights problems to consider because their values incist on heterosexuality and he nearly has no gay people in Iran ?


Must be to underline he feels more authoritarian & different on many aspects to Euro-American Nations ....

I know that much of a political candidates campaign money comes from donations, mostly from major corporations. However, this always seems to be a major hush hush aspect that the candidates never seem to talk about. I was wondering if their was a web page (or something) that I can go to that would list all of the major financial contributors to each of the candidates?
