Politics and emotions aside please ...

Just base on their look, the way they carry themselves etc, who will you choose to be is the third, second, first runner-up and the CHAMP?

My view is:
3rd - Mr. G Brown,
not so handsome, not so stylish, look like the uncle I meet on the street who is not very friendly.

2nd - Mr. Clinton
most handsome, stylish, kiddy look but act matured, always smiles but looks very fake to me.

1st - Mr. Tony B
handsome, most gentleman, very matured look but abit too serious i.e. like not so friendly.

CHAMP - Mr GW Bush
ok ok handsome, stylish, always smiles, matured look but cute, funny and very friendly.
He is like a young chap behind a matured face.

What about you?

You all have Gordon Brown. We have Bush and the female version of Gordon Brown in Hillary Clinton. The French has, seemingly, a good leader but questionable. He and his wife both cheated but got back together in 2005. What makes him think he can be faithful to a nation? Being married to millions of citizens is far harder than just one spouse.

Even though I am not French, this is still embarrassing because it causes me to ask, what is the world coming to? Better yet, Where are the Churchhills and Kennedys? Bush is determined to take on the whole world and ignore the wishes of his citizens. He is demonic and void of a conscience. Brown is wishy washy and will sell England to the highest bidder.

Look on the bright side, at least you all do not have Bush and Hillary. We have 14 months, 1 week, and five days to go before he is gone. Then Hitlery or Killary comes to power. She knows that she is a shoe in. It is too painful for most Americans to embrace.

I hate people abusing the programs but if my taxes are going to pay for a little kids health care I don't mind one bit. Why should the kid suffer because of the parents?

Perfect reason to try and come back to complete the devils work. Pelosi could not get 'freedom of speech' modified. The Patriot Act, and the War in the Middle East, Bill Clinton campaigning with GHW-Bush for any reason, they all sleep in the same bed. Are we really looking at this candidate? I know I am. My eyes are not closed. Are yours?

. I 'm not going to say his name but here is a Liberal reply I saw>>>> ........."Redirect ALL money from the military sector to the science research and space exploration".............<<< First of all I would say how wonderful that would be to be able to do! Unfortunately its not realistic and would lead to Americas destruction .My question is : How many Liberals would agree with dismantling the US Military . I'm not taking shots at Liberals I would love to be proved wrong on this one!

It surprises me that the US would go after Iraq when there are a lot of countries that are much bigger threats to US security, such as North Korea and Iran. Saddam Hussein was just minding his own business in Iraq in 2003 when Bush decided to invade for no real reason, and yet Kimberly Jong-Il and Mahmoud Mahmasemamasamamakusanadinejad are off building nuclear weapons and the US doesn't do a thing. Not only that, the US is still allies with Saudi Arabia despite the fact that they have one of the worst human rights records on the planet. The Qur'an clearly states that there can be no compulsion in religion (Qur'an 2:256), and yet the Saudis refuse to let anyone practice any religion other than either Sunni or Shia Islam. I just don't get why the US invades countries that don't need to be invaded, doesn't invade countries that do need to be invaded, and remains allies with countries that do not uphold human rights. Can anyone shed any light on this issue?

My mother says if I went on a shooting spree and killed many people (like at school) the cops would shoot me instead of arresting me. Would they still shoot a beautiful or gorgeous girl if she did the same thing? I heard beautiful girls are treated better- I hope that's not true.

Would they welcome us with open arms? After all, there needs to be some diversity in Mexico, Peru, and Equador as well. Right? Should there be a program in place that does that?

I remember not too long ago, when George W. Bush's team tried to defend the Iraqi War and said that Abraham Lincoln also "took the United States to war as well" (the Civil War) and that Abe wasn't a very popular President during his time, like Bush, yet he is considered one of the greatest American presidents today.

Hmmm! I don't know if Honest Abe would quite agree with that - but anyway, what are your personal opinions? Does George W. Bush deserve to be compared to Abe Lincoln?

Just don't resort to name-calling or personal attacks - thank you. :)

do you think the United States will let that happen? I don' think they will for obvious reasons. Whatever is going on in the Middle east region is mainly world domination.

I called to talk my brother over the phone tonight and i asked him about the party he went to . He told me that the mother of the kid who was throwing the party not only went out and brought beer back to the house, but that she also gave it to minors. I found this to be very disturbing. If i called the police to report them could they do something about it or would they have to catch her in the act. I am afraid that one day a child is going to have too much to drink and than want to go out driving afterwards.

"Vladimir Putin boasted of developing new nuclear weapons to strengthen Russia’s military power today and warned the United States not to ignore Moscow's objections to a planned missile defence shield in Europe.

President Putin pledged to counter the shield unless the US and Europe took account of Russia's concerns. He also called on the US to set a date for withdrawal of troops from Iraq, adding that the 2003 invasion had been an attempt to secure control of its oil reserves. "

This sounds pretty serious to me.

Sure you do---you just can't admit it. You participate in global capitalism just like I do. You don't care how many chinese kids slave away to make your shoes or how many Iraqi mothers died for your tank of gas. You don't care and neither do I. If we did care, we'd do something more than babble on a computer.
Nope. We are fat lazy murderers and that's just fine by me. At least I can admit it.

Check this out people. In a county where I live, police are setting up road block to catch drunk drivers, etc....You know where I'm going. Pro-Latina groups here are up in arms because if a hispanic gets stopped and they don't have a DL, insurance, or proper visas, then they go to jail and the deportation process starts. They also do not allow bail because they do not know who these people are. These pro-illegal groups are raising hell because they think they are targeting hispanics. The police have asked them what they should do then, and the group tells them that they need to just write them a citation and let them go. Are you frickin kidding me! Let them go? Maybe if I get pulled over I can tell the police that my name is John Smith, and they will just write me a citation. UNBELIEVEABLE!!!!!! And people want to know why the average American is feed up with undocumented workers in this country.

I donno, but it is something I have noticed. Why is it that the US wants to send millions sometimes even billions to help rebuild other countries, send food to other countries, help them after natural disasters yet we still have so many poor and sick people in our country?

I mean I understand we are trying to up our Reputation for helping, but shouldn't we sorta help ourselves before trying to help others? Last time I checked and heard, our country was in debt like millions, yet we still send money to other countries. And sometimes they even ask for more then the US gives. And other times it really does nothing to help them at all!

So why do we keep doing this instead of trying to help ourselves before helping them?...

I will name a few: Seattle, Portland, California, Ann Arbor, Boulder and parts of New York City.

These places are so bad, Ann Arbor was, that I became a hardcore Republican for a few years. I'm back to political sanity again. I don't live there anymore thank god, but everytime I meet someone from Seattle or Portland, they live up to the liberal weirdo, extremist stereotype, and remind me of why I never want to be anywhere near places like that.

Remember, I vote Democrat, I don't support the Iraq War...but I hate leftist weirdos. These people are possibly the most annoying ******* sons of bitches I've ever met in my life, next to goths. Anyone share my sentiments?

The older lady across the street is bipolar. About twice a week she calles 911. Than here comes the police, EMTS and a fire truck. They come and are gone within mins. You would think by now they would know that she is calling just for them to come over. maybe she is lonley. Do the police have to keep coming over even though she is calling for no reason? and is it not illegal to call 911 if there is no emergency? thanks!
