I found $1000 in a money bag in the street. It has no information on the bag, nor in the bag as well. Should I just give it to the police?

From all of the questions asked and comments rendered people in America just don't seem to understand or want to believe the truth concerning the Iraq War. Consequently, we will end up murdering millions of innocent people (foreigners) and we, our nation, really does not care. If by doing this our nation brings about World War III an armageddon or war to end all human life on this planet, do our people really care?

Question: Am I correct in my assumption above?

True facts:

1. It is against the law for any US President to declare war on any nation without the consent of Congress. The Bush administration got the funding for the Iraq war from congress and proceeded with the war in 1991.

2. The first Iraq War (1991) as well as the second (2003) and 11 years of sanctions against Iraq is both illegal and criminal. It is, also, unethical and murderous.

3. Our government had set Saddam up and lied about WMD to our nation and to the United Nations in order to secure resolutions,

(contd)

Have you ever looked you child in their face, REALLY looked, and said, "Thank you, Lord Jesus my child lives!"? If so, why do you think it's okay for someone else to wipe away another child's life? I don't understand that, so help me to, please? Thanks.

There lieing to themselves and the world that they truely care about the earth and prove the fact that money drives the "environment machine" that they so dearly claim to care about. This is the biggest farse I have ever seen. We are not the only country on earth and have done more to prevent greenhouse gases than anyone else. We will never fix the so called global warming problem (if there even is one) on are own, but our taxes continually go up to fix something that we have no control over in the first place. I'm tired of the liberal BS, Al Gore, Hilary Clinton and the rest of there money hungry cronies. Open your eyes people, look at the money involved and respect the fact that they don't care about you or your unborn child. Marry CHRISTMAS........OH, I ment Xmas.

The US has vowed to send its young men to fight and die for Israel so why do they not put a stake in fighting terrorism? Why as in Viet Nam does the US have to suffer with the loss of its young men? Please do not tell me we are a superpower and are responsible to be the worlds policeman.

Why is there not a place on any ballot paper indicating that you do not wish any of the candidates to be your representative? Surely the way to be a true democracy is to give voters the ability to let political parties etc. know that voters are not wanting any of those put forward to be their representative. At present in UK, and I far I know nowhere else, is there a way of going to the poll and registering this. Hence we end up with governments wanted by, at most, 15% of the voters. This we are told is a democracy!

WASHINGTON (CNN) – Former President Bill Clinton sharply questioned whether Sen. Barack Obama is experienced enough to be president during a television interview that aired Friday night.

And the husband of Obama's rival for the Democratic presidential nomination, Sen. Hillary Clinton, suggested that electing the Illinois Democrat to be commander-in-chief would be a "risk."

"If you listen to the people who are most strongly for him, they say basically, 'We have to throw away all these experienced people, because they have been through the wars of the nineties,'" Clinton said in an interview on PBS' The Charlie Rose show. "'They made enough decisions and enough calls that they made a few mistakes, and what we want is someone who started running for president a year after he became a senator because he's fresh, he's new, he's never made a mistake. And he has massive political skills, and we're willing to risk it.'"

Asked later in the interview if he thought voters would be "rolli

Little Papua New Guinea proved to be better leader than our Great United States of America. The representative from Papua New Guinea stated a quote that said "Lead or get out of the way".
He further stated "We ask for your leadership, we want your leadership, but if you are not willing to lead, get out of our way and let others lead"
"The U.S. stand had drawn loud boos and sharp rebukes — "Lead ... or get out of the way!" one delegate demanded "
It used to be in times like this the US Leadership was a given and unquestionable. What has happened to US? We have lost so much respect on so many levels and on so many issues?
For this and other instances, What is the best first step in regaining our role as the respected Leader of the Free World?

The first Woman Prime Minister in history was Mrs.Sirimavo Bandaranaike of Sri Lanka,subsequently many countries like Britain etc. followed suit.The US inspite of its lead role in "liberation" of women has never had a Woman President.There is a strong possiblity they may have a woman nominee in the forthcoming Presedential polls,its interesting to know whether the gender factor will have any bearing in the decision of the voter polls being unchartered territory.

I am talking about electoral votes which won Bush his presidency even though the overall vote totals in for instance Ohio was in favor of Kerry. Our forefathers created this system because it didn't believe that the people of the time weren't smart enough to vote for the right person due to widespread illiteracy. This time of illiteracy (not educational level) has come and gone so should we change the electoral vote process?

So I suppose all of these winter storms we are having can be attributed to Global Warming? Wait... isn't it still fall? Well that's wierd so it MUST be Global Warming, right???

If you answer is, "this can't be evidence against global warming because it is just part of a natural weather cycle and not indicative of a climate change..." Then why are similar events like Hurricane Katrina and the drought in the southeast and the excessive rain in Europe this year all blamed on Global Warming?

It just seems too convenient that when something extreme happens, it's Global Warming, but when something normal happens it's "just part of a cycle, but really Global warming is happening...}"

Yet our news and many in YA can only find fault, repeating the montra over and over of how oppressive and evil this country is in an effort to persuade us to hate our own country and life in general...are we starting to reap the results of this consent bombardment of negativity? Have the lib montra created a sociaty that is soft both physically and mentally?
Seems like the whiny babies among us have decided to lethally arm themselves and take out their post-pubescent “nobody likes me” rage on innocent people in schools, shopping malls and now . . . churches.
example:Matthew Murray, a twenty-four-year-old pathetic toad.
Murray grew up in rather harsh conditions. Yep, it seems that young Matt was living at home with his mommy and his neurosurgeon daddy in the lap of luxury in an opportunity-rich environment. Wow. Who could handle all that stress?!? That’s enough to make any of us snap.

OK this is killing me....in Baltimore, two separate incidents have happened this week where white people were severely beaten by gangs of black kids, just for being white. This is the definition of hate crime. If it were opposite, all we'd be seeing on tv were the usual race pimps (who make millions of dollars trying to dig up racism where it doesn't exist) trying to stir up hate and segregate black people even more. But i'm sure when a white person brings a gun on board a bus for self defense and shoots someone to protect themselves, and that person happens to be black, it will be all over the news and will be branded a hate crime and there will be statements said like, "he only shot him cuz he was black". My question is, to black people, I think Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson are setting black people back decades and if MLK was alive to see it, he would puke. This was not his dream, it was unity. What do you think?
