That President George Walker Bush, is a President in name only and doesn't deserve the Honor, Respect and Support his office commands?

Some people say he is the worst President EVER, I find it hard to argue with them.

Oh boy, it would be so convenient for him to do so since he did in fact sign PD51 to make himself der Führer.

That would be for our safety of course.

Not just folks like Blackwater and Haliburton, but also the privitization of the industries surrounding the Iraq war, such as services for the troops like food, and the privitization of the Iraqi oil wealth. Do you think it is a good thing, a neccessary evil, or a corrupt racket?

In the past the reporting and debate has been almost exclusively about who did or didn't break the law, who leaked first, would anyone be indicted, tried, serve jail time or be pardoned, etc. But very little coverage or debate on the act itself-i.e., the outing of a covert (covert when outed by the way) agent working on WMD issues, specifically Iraq. No where near enough effort has been directed toward recognition that those involved (Cheney, Rove and Libby at the least, and possibly Bush, himself) commited acts, possibly treasonous, that compromised our national security and that they did so purely for political vendetta reasons.

Well what can I say? The government putting millions of us at risk of Identity theft= I cannot get over how they could have 'lost' all this financial information while apparently sending it internally to another office. Now they are blaiming an Junior for it. What about how rubbish the whole system is since Gordon Brown took over from Blair. How will they protect us now? it makes me mad what do you think?

Seeing that politicians will do almost anything to get elected including lying, cheating, stealing, backstabbing, blackmailing, etc... & then once elected they'll do all the same things to stay in office are Americans who vote really smarter/better than those Americans who actually know the true nature of politicians and don't vote?

Which ones? we're occuping bout 130 plus countries. We've been in Korea for 50 plus yrs. WE ARE NEVER LEAVING IRAQ - that was ALWAYS the plan.

DECLARE WAR (like the Constitution states) against a COUNTRY and i'll support the troops. No mumbo jumbo UN resolution grap.

Like the 'war of drugs' it's a NEVER ENDING money making operation.

I am curious to know from anyone despite their political affiliation. To me... I was shocked at the approval rating mainly because the Democrats ran a pretty good campaign in 2006.
But still I would like to know from your perspective.

Disclaimer: I am no friend of the Democratic Party

We hear endlessly about carbon emissions and our 'carbon footprint' and I even hear there are plans to link carbon emmissions with the London Congestion Charge and yet they are pushing to expand Heathrow airport with a new runway and terminal that will handle 'hundreds of thousands of extra flights'. The hypocrisy of it all! As much as I think reducing carbon emmissions is something we should strive to do, I cannot take the government seriously.

It seems that Pakistan tribal leaders are hiding and protecting them and their government isn't doing anything from stopping them to cross the border into Afganistan.

the House yesterday said President Clinton failed to act in "the national interest" earlier this year when he gave permission for a Chinese satellite launch to a U.S. aerospace firm with close Democratic ties, and moved to block him from approving similar exports.
But yesterday's House votes, all on amendments to the annual defense authorization bill, made plain that Democrats, too, have concerns. By 364 to 54, lawmakers adopted Rep. Duncan Hunter's (R-Calif.) proposal for a flat ban on the export or re-export of satellites to China.

Why would some Liberals also vote to do this? Why are some liberals supporting Rep Duncan Hunter proposal anyway?
How will this move effect us now and why is not highly advertised? How come Duncan Hunter is not getting enough
media attention since he appears to be looking after Americas best interest?

Partition of the ancestral property between brothers ( A and B )executed during 1959. In the partion deed the son's name of 'A' was included as one of the party. At that time the daughter of 'A' was in the mother's womb.. whether 'A' s daughter will also get equal share of the partitioned property along with her brother and father because she was in the womb (though her name is not included in the partition deed ). The son claims that his sister will not be eligible for any share as her name is not appearing in the partion deed. He also claims that he , in addition to his own share in the partioned property , is eligible to half of his father's property even during the lifetime of his father

and introduce the following reforms to stop rewarding those who don't positively contribute to our society?

Put in place a procedure whereby those who claim unemployment benefit for longer than 3 months in any 12-month period are either:

a) forced to subscribe to a properly-supervised (stricter than that which currently exists) community-based programme before receiving further benefits.

OR

b) given the opportunity to join a military-style boot-camp with a view to becoming a full-time member of our armed forces.

Also, ask those who claim disability allowance to undertake regular medical procedures to ensure they are unsuitable for ANY type of work.

This would help reignite a difficult relationship that all political parties currently have with a very-disillusioned British public, who, for the most, are being subjected to very inefficient tax-and-spend policies and seeing comparitively little in return.

'Foreign Fighters in Iraq Are Tied to Allies of U.S.

BAGHDAD — Saudi Arabia and Libya, both considered allies by the United States in its fight against terrorism, were the source of about 60 percent of the foreign fighters who came to Iraq in the past year to serve as suicide bombers or to facilitate other attacks, according to senior American military officials. (New York Times)'
