In the last 3 weeks I have traveled by air to Philadelphia, St. Louis and Denver. Nowhere did I find anyone seeking signatues on a Petition supporting impeachment of Bush. Why not? If he is the anit-Christ, Hitler clone and war criminal that the libs say he is, then WHERESTHEBEEF?? Isn't it time to put up or shut up?? Some answer that there are not sufficient votes but that is a cop out. If great people did not try to do great things against the odds we would all be a bunch of cavemen.

I recently read several news articles that mentioned Saddam's willingness to except exile as opposed to war with the US.... I never heard this brought up prior to now!!

so... what do we all think of this? should we have excepted this and not invaded? Remember this would be only saddam and not his murdering regime. (personaly i dont think war was called for to begin with).

JFK - You can't claim him. He Cut taxes and was not an appeaser.
Carter - One term. Lost 49 States in re-election bid
Clinton - Impeached & Disbarred

Meanwhile us CONS have

Reagan - 2 Terms in LANDSLIDES. Ended the Soviets.
Bush 2 - 2 Terms. Ended Saddam and Liberated Afganistan.

Is this why you cry?

I have been living in Prague for past year. Every 90 days I leave so my stay here is legal.

I have applied for the Czech visa twice, and both times been rejected. I have been told this is "payback" because the U.S. government makes it so hard for Czechs to get U.S. visas.

They couldn't find fault with my application or supporting documents. I complied meticulously with the list of requirements they sent me. This time the excuse was that the Czech Police (they give the ultimate yes or no) doubted I was a real student because of my age (47). Hmmm... 150 lessons and I'm not a "real" student? Then they said a language school does not qualify as really going to school.

Obviously, this is just B.S., and you can't fight idiot bureaucrats. Should I just hire a lawyer to push this through? (At the language school, one of the teachers used a lawyer to get the visa)

Any tips you can give?

A left wing fringe group on this site and elsewhere liken Bush to a war criminal, Hitler and "a monster". They cry out for his impeachment like bloodthirsty vampires. Then why don't their Dem leaders impeach Bush? No BAL*S?? Or, (gawd!) no impeachable offense?? Is this all bluster from the left or will they finally put their money where their mouths are?

I'll be makin my decision to enlist for the corps at the end of this month. Couple of questions for anyone who has been to Parris Island..
1) Should I go for January or during May. I know about the sand fleas and ticks, but which would be better?
2)I've "experimented" with drugs in the past. Not a hardcore user or anything, and I'm 100% clean now, but i've done my share of them.
3)Probably the most serious...is it really worth it?? I'll come back to college after Parris and MOS, and be in the reserves, but is it really worth it?? Will I be missing out on life for the next 4 years, or can I still enjoy SOME college (understanding i could be deployed)

This is something that i really want to do, and something i know i can do. What do you guys think?

I thought this is what the dept is for however why would they be using their resources on Tax Evaders. Do you think this is a waste of resources or do you support where your tax dollars are going..

This is a website that actually tries to claim that government is good and is a "vital" institution. Of course, anybody who makes arguments as absurd as these (and the person running it is a Marxist professor at Mount Holyoke of course) will inevitably make arguments so absurd that they are funny.

I don't think we need to rebut this nonsense (it is so absurd that no rational person would believe it), but it makes for a good laugh.

Before oil finishes completely_and someday it'll happen, since apparently scientists say there are more years left of potable, drinking water, than oil_, let's say that it becomes contaminated by an up till now unknown bacteria or the like; What would be the one unique thing humans would go to wars for? Especially the kinds we have now?

And why do they constantly remind us of this invisible enemy who wants to kill every American?

We don't even know who they are. Other than seeing the face of Osama bin Laden every year on video.

First of all, Osama shouldn't even be free to be making videos!

Second, we never hear who these enemy terrorists are? We are just supposed to go along with them and surrender our privacy and rights because of an enemy who for all we know, doesn't even exist?

This war can go on as long as they want and we will never know or see who these so called terrorists are that keep this war going. These so-called terrorists who keep attacking our troops in Iraq are not terrorists at all. They are Iraqi citizens who are fed up with our foreign policy and occupation! They use the weapons we gave to them when we trained them 2 years ago.

And our Government labels these Iraqi's terrorists to keep their little war going on and on and on

The war is nothing more than a total scam for war profit

Bush did not deny what happened when he gave his speech, but asked the voters to vote against. Is that more important then the truth ?
