Politics & Government - 19 November 2007

"Let every soul be subjection to the superior authorities, for there is no authority except by God."

"Becuase the minding of the flesh means enmity with God, for it is under subjection to the law of God, for those who are in harmony witht the flesh cannot pleas God."

"for the minding of the fleash means death, but the minding of the spirit means enmity, with God."

"For through the undeserved kindness to me I tell everyone there among you not think more of himself than it is necessary to think"

"Be minded the same way toward others as to yourselfs; do not be minding lofty things, but be led along with holy things, Do not become discreet in your own eyes."

"Return evil to evil to noone. Provide fine things in the sigh of all men."

"If your enemy is hungry , feed him; if he is thirsty give him something to drink"

"Do not let yourself be conquered by evil, but keep conquering the evil with the good."

"Let the one eating not look down on the one not eating and let the one not eating not judge the one eating, for God has welcomed that one.

"One man judges one day as above another; another man judges one day as all others; let each man be fully convinced in his own mind"

"But why do you judge your brother? Or why do you also look down on your brother? For we shall all stand before the judgement seat of God"

Therefore let us not be judging one another any longer, but rather make this your decision , not to put before a brother a stumbling block or cause for tripping"

"For if because of food your brother is being grieved, you are no longer walking in accord with love"

"Let each of us pleas his neighbor in what is good for his upbuilding"

"So the land should not be sold in perpetuity because the land is mine. For you are alien residents and settlers from my standpoint"

"And in all the land of your possesion you should grant to the land the right of buying back "

Please watch the short video showing some of the questions asked by "undecided voters" and proof that these undecided voters were no such thing. They were Democrat activists or plants.

So is CNN just incompetent or is this just more proof of their bias?

If he were to loose the nomination to Hillary ( mainly, lest face it it will be because she's a woman and the name recognition that will get her a mojority of the votes. ) could he run as a 3rd party like Ralph and Ross? If he is so likeable by Dems and Repubs, could it work to his favor?

Jack sent me an email asking if it were true what people were saying about what John did to Bob. I replied and stated yes, I know for a fact that he "screwed Bob over". Jack in turn forwarded the email to John. Now John is threating to get me for libel or slander.
I know that slander is oral and he can not get me for that but what about libel? Does it matter that this was an private email and not published anywhere? Could Jack have changed the email before he forwarded it to John and therefore it is heresay and hard to prove? When I stated "screwed over" is that not my opinion of the situation? Are opinions libel? Please help. This John guy is serious and I thought I was just making an opinion on the matter. I never thought it would come to this nonsence.

I don't mean to sound selfish but I just really feel directionless right now and I want to know from those who have or are currently serving how either branch of the forces have benefitted them. Has it given you direction or motivation for other interests and career pursuits in life? I am 28. Am I considered too old to start now?

I realize that he’s the “only true Conservative” but is there anyone else left in the Republican ranks that will be able to get the job done?

Or are you gonna get behind the Libertarian candidate and “prove a point” to the American people by running the risk of allowing either Hillary or Obama the chance to take the office of the most powerful person in the World.

Don’t get me wrong, I DO want a good Conservative in the White House, BUT the way I see it, proving a point wouldn’t be so bad IF the World weren’t in the state it’s in right now. Not to sound too hasty, but I’m scared to death of the prospect of Hillary or Obama in charge AND I’m pretty sure the damage that could be done over the next 4 years is well beyond a “see, I told you so!!” vote.

Article 51 of International Law argues against preemptive strike.

Since we all know now the false inteliigence, and all the other actions taken that led us into a war on IRAQ, anyon can see there was no WMDs that would constitute a preemptive strike.
And talks of a preemptive strike against Iran are the same -- since there is no direct evidence that Iran poses a threat to U.S.

So, should Bush stand trial for violating International Law, and being responsible for the deaths of 4000 americans, 30000 wounded and hundreds of thousands of iraqis dead, wounmded and left homeless?

THERE'S "startling" and "stunning" news of a "hidden epidemic" of veteran suicides. So claimed CBS News in two reports last week.

Most of the airtime went for heart-rending interviews with wives of vets who had killed themselves. But CBS also provided statistics that it said showed that "veterans were more than twice as likely to commit suicide in 2005 than non-vets."

Problem is, we have absolutely no way of verifying the CBS data nor how the network claims it collected the info. CBS News admits to collecting the data itself, rather than relying on an independent outside party. It also concedes its rate is "much higher" than that in an uncompleted Department of Veterans Affairs study.

So somebody isn't telling the truth. And the evidence is overwhelming that it's CBS.

Iraq's government today said security statistics showed that Baghdad had "defeated the forces of darkness" after more than a year of sectarian warfare, and the United States said it was crucial that Iraqi leaders used the relative calm to get their political fighting under control.

The government released numbers indicating a major decline in violent attacks in Baghdad and the surrounding areas. Attacks such as bombings numbered 323 last month, compared with 850 in February when a U.S.-led security crackdown was launched, according to the government figures.
