Everyone makes President Bush sound like a bad man! why? In the following link he is shown running with U.S. Army soldier Mike McNaughton. Bush visited Mike at the hospital, and told him that when he could run a mile he would go running with him. Bush called Mike every month to see if he was ready. Over a year and a half later Bush fulfills his promise when Mike felt he could run. WHY WAS THIS NEVER ON THE COMMUNIST NEWS NETWORKS?

Is there a law that says that history teachers have to teach us certain things and not just biased material? I'm from the US and my history teacher does not and refuses to teach us anything but US History and our State history. Is that illegal? (I'm from Washington.)

On a day that a new poll said Obama leads in Iowa, Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton suggested her rival has character issues.

When a reporter asked whether she is suggesting Obama has “issues of character, the New York senator said, “I’m going to let voters make that decision but it’s beginning to look a lot like that. It really is.”

Enron started out as a natural gas pipeline company, well, all the natural gas pipelines are owned by exxon.

Can you imagine that all those people worked at Enron, had their retirements in Enron stocks, and all the while Exxon and Bush knew full well that they were going to load Enron up with all Exxon's debt so when it folded Exxon would have that much less debt and had stolen everyone's retirement money to boot.

No wonder Bush was so friendly with Ken Lay, They were all silent partners in the same Exxon scam.

Recently at my mall (freehold raceway mall in freehold,NJ) the security guards follow groups of teenagers around yelling at them every time they stop, they also came up to me asking me if I'm shopping or hanging around, when i tell them I'm shopping, they yell "Don't lie to me!" I'm fed up with going to the mall to spend money and having to deal with these pain in the *ss rentacops. Another line all the security guards use is "Shop Or Go Home!" Also are their any places were i can complain and get these security guards in trouble with their employer at least, I want my voice heard.

Up until Thursday it was the war, but since Congress Murtha pulled out the rug on the Democrats by saying "the surge is working".

This week the Democrats will come out swinging saying "restoring the American dream for millions of our nation’s working families has been the central priority".

So they will use the economy as their number one priority, since they can't use the war anymore.

It seems to me that the world is now so complex (and in many ways terrifying) and there is so much incoming information that people gravitate toward leaders who do not trouble themselves with nuance or factual complexities.

In addition, there is more of a tendency to rely on commentators, such as Rush Limbaugh, to "make sense" of things, because they can't read a few news stories and compare differing perspectives.

(There should be about four sets of quotation marks around the phrase, "make sense.")
