In the light of hard evidence(and an increasingly dumbed-down America which has virtually NO concept of real math and science), a public opinion poll is about as valid as asking Kindergardeners if they want a second run on milke and cookies.

Thank you for all those people who went into the soft-majors at schools over the past 30 years...a six-figure salary as a real engineer due to the fact of generation X,Y, Z can't read, write, or figure out a percentage in sales tax make me even more valuable in the market(and shaking my head on the Dads/Moms of these new "progressive" generations who made incredibly poor parents).

Usually in these cases there is one person who drives while the rest of the passengers fire the guns. Does the driver get a murder charge as well even though he did not physically fire any weapons?

"Who are you going to vote for in next month's election?"

I think I'm going with Kerry. I don't want Bush to get a second term.

Knights Templars posed as "the" Christians defending the christian faith. They, in fact, were heretics. They enriched themselves and when moved to Europe starting to take over governments. It was then the scheme of lending money that doesnt exist started to emerge. When the knights Templars disappeared due to persecution, other secret societies, with the same aim of world domination, emerged. The modern rulers of the West can be traced to these societies which today have various forms like tax excempt organizations, media tycoons, and so forth.

It is a fact, not conspiracy. But the Freemasons of today will tell you that you are nuts or that u smoke weed if yo believe in them. Thats their only defense (but to understand more about 9-11 terror attacks, you'd need operation northwoods as well)

I think these elite Corporate families have shared power long enough.

The Constitution is being whittled away by these groups of Lobbyist pleasing politicians
Hillary would be first to extend the war into Iran
Her voting record over the last couple of years speaks for itself

Foreign policy now comes first to America

That is what we need to change

Electing in the same circles doesn't change anything but party

Our economy will not survive under 4-8 more years of this and Hillary Clinton would be the worst choice if America wants change

This might seem disrespectful and I apologize but this question constantly enters my mind - I don't understand why people care about girls who have sex 115 times with no protection , my feeling is - If they want to destroy themselves so be it . I see this on shows I enjoy and hear about it all the time ! I honestly don't care what a girl does , its her business and if she decides to have sex with x number of people #1 Who am I to judge ? and #2 Why should I care ? This country in my opinion is obsessed with people who want to and are knowingly destroying themselves and I believe it's time to get over it .

Anyone agree or disagree ? Please post honest opinions , thank you .

to explain Mercury's motion around the sun?

Cons like to downplay the significance of the scientific concensus on the theories of evolution, the big bang, and man made global warming, because they think "theory" means hypothesis.

In addition, plenty of them think a "law" is superior to a "theory", but the fact is Einstein's (((THEORY))) of relativity supercedes Newton's "laws" of motion. Einstein's theory applies at regular speeds and speeds approaching the speed of light.

Who deserves government-subsidized health insurance?

What if I told you I drove these three cars
A Volvo SUV…

A GMC Suburban…

And a nice, big Ford F250 Pickup work truck…

And what if I told you, further, that I owned a large home and commercial property worth at least $400,000 in total–property for which I paid a total of $215,000?

And what if I told you, in addition, that I was resourceful enough to cobble together financing (through scholarships and other means) for private school education for four children?

And what if I told you that neither I nor my spouse were employed full-time–one of us working “intermittently” and the other “part-time”?

Would you consider my family “exactly the kind” and “precisely the type” of family that should benefit from S-CHIP, the government-subsidized health insurance program intended for the “working poor?”

Or will they be honest and say its all about giving everyone free healthcare not just "for the children"

Come President Bush and the Democrat led Congress.

The American people are fed up with illegal immigration and open borders.

Why won't you protect us?

Expecially in this time of terror.

Because the Dems in Congress pushes a useless and senseless resolution condemning Turkey for events that happened 90 years ago. Now, the Turks have withdrawn from diplomatic negotiations and are poised to cross the Northern Iraq border, which could mean more war. And for what?

Thanks, silly Dem Congresspersons. Once again, you prove your amateurishness in the realm of international diplomacy.
