Politics & Government - 18 December 2007

I just watched the movie Bobby. The essence of RFK's message seemed similar to Ron Paul's message today. Does anyone else see this? What do you think?

ISRAEL IS ANGRY BECAUSE NOBODY CARE ABOUT IRAN PLAN TO ACQUIRE NUCLEAR WEAPONS.

SO, ISRAEL HAS NO CHOISE BUT TO BOMB IRAN
ANYTIME NOW.

SO, WHAT WILL HAPPEN TO THOSE 160,000 AMERICAN SOLDIERS IN IRAQ?

WILL THEY ALL BECOME PRISONERS OF WAR.

BRITISH HAVE LEFT IRAQ AND AL QAEDA IS CELEBRATING.

PENTAGON MUST MAKE EMERGENCE PLAN TO TAKE OUT ALL AMERICAN SOLDIERS OUT OF IRAQ.

MAYBE FOR THE FIRST TIME IN WORLD HISTORY NEUTRON BOMBS COULD BE USE AGAINST IRAN BY AMERICA.

The new EU health care directive will allow Britons trapped in endless queues to get into our filthy hospitals with their fatal infections to gain quick access to the excellent European facilities such as those of Germany, France and Holland. The fact that the dreadful Frank Dobson and other Labour hacks are against the idea is the best argument for its immediate implimentation. At last, we will have a reformed public service - the ultimate British oxymoron.

give tickets/ fault to people making left turns when an accident happens? Because I was in a car accident today...it was already after sunset around 5:15 and everyone on the road had their headlights on except this lady...I was making a left turn and didn't see her because she didn't have her headlights on. Usually after a certain point in a day, people tend to focus on lights...inside of trying to make out shapes of cars. But I still got the ticket. Kind of makes me a little mad.

The EU are talking about allowing europeans to be treated where ever they like within europe, with their own government picking up to bill.

Good bye NHS - Hello private hospitals.

I'm a citizen of the United States. I value our Constitution and the history of this great country and the 50 states which comprise it. Currently I live in Texas, but I've lived in Illinois, Colorado, New Mexico and Michigan, and have strong ties to Wyoming.

I have seen one of the original copies of the Magna Carta and was in awe of this very old document. I see it as one of the first steps taken by those being ruled to limit the powers of the rulers.

It stands as one of Britain's brightest contributions to mankind, in my view. How do you regard this incredible document?

Someone asked me if Canada has a registry with the military that is mandatory to sign up with at a certain age, similar to the U.S. Selective Service. I have researched what i can, but have found nothing regarding the regulations in Canada.
Seriously, if you don't know for 100%, don't respond to the question.
Cite your sources, please. Example: If your are a Canadian and you have signed up with such "draft" or "selective service" or whatever it is called in Canada (without actually signing up with the military) please say so and I will consider that a great answer, as it is first hand knowledge. Thank you!

The Democratic candidates for President seem to be united in their intent to impose more taxes on the wealthy. I offer three questions, one for your opinion, and two for data. With respect to the 10% earning the highest income in the US:
- What percentage of the total income tax revenue do you think they should pay?
- What percentage of the total income tax revenue do you think that they are actually paying now?
- What percentage of the total income tax revenue were they paying before the Bush tax cuts?

Have fun!

If Mike Huckabee becomes President, will he be in clear Violation of the First Amendment?

The first Amendment clearly states the separation church and state; which states that Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof…

If Huckabee is elected President; he being a Baptist minister any laws created will carry the under tones of his religious beliefs, essentially affect the chance of a clear non partisan objective.

What’s your opinion, Should Congress Prosecute him or Pardon him?

n to enjoy life as it is? The government is what man made it. It can't be changed unless voters stop voting and we get together to boycott filing income tax returns until the voters are listened to. Our taxes that we pay are being used friliously and not what they were intended to be used for. If we all refuse to file an income tax return what's the government gonna do. We as people of America need to start standing up for our rights and stop the government from giving our tax money to clothe, shelter, and employ illegal Americans. Our tax money also they want to use to give them free health care, I'm born and raised American and I don't get the goodies that the government that we give money to wants to give to the wet backs that don't even deserve to live here. A lot of them are convicted felons in Mexico and they flee here to hide. Our government feed them and shelters them. I've got a life long story of how I don't qualify to get the freebies and I bet you do too. Boycot USA.

In India no cow can be slaughtered b coz Hindus consider the animal to be their mother by faith. A Muslim or Christian or a Jew cannot slaughter one's own cow neither in slaughter house nor in one's own house i.e., one cannot use one's own belonging according to one's own wishes. Is not it a rule of slavery ? If someone does so at public places it may hurt their sentiments. But when a cow herself stops giving milks , the owners themselves leave it on the roads to become stray animal for decades dirtying open spaces. west Bengal state people smuggle 30,000 such cows per day towards Bangladesh for good return as price. Samething people of Barmer & Jodhpur district do towards Pakistan. In both countries those smuggled ones are slaughtered. Is it not hippocricy ? Even in disputed territory like Kashmir states's part under Indian control since 1947, whose fate is yet to be decided by public, cows of people are not allowed to be cut by India. How can it be justified ? Is it true freedom ?

My fiance and I are planning on getting married when he returns from Iraq in April. When we get married will we receive the BAH w/ dependents rate or w/o dependents rate? We don't have any children but I have seen some people say that just getting married gets you the extra money.
