If so many people hate Bush and the Iraq War, Why is Guiliani so popular? Guiliani has said many times that ending the war in Iraq is not a good idea. The Iraq war has an approval rating of 37%. So why does Guiliani have a 46% approval rating. Other than crime reduction in NYC and looking good in the face of 9/11, can anyone tell me what he has done that makes him so great. Did i mention he supports tourture prisons.

Would you rather be rich or poor. Before I go any further, may i say that i am not accusing any of you of being bad people. i am not passing judgment as to whether you are good people. I am not attempting to make you look bad. I could be considered rich myself. Many of you claim to be religious. Is it not more difficult for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God than a camel to go through the eye of a needle. Mark 10:25 Are the rich not to weep and groan as in Hebrews 4. Please answer, if it is only an advisor posing as one of you.

Being a person who is extremely fed up with "current" republicans, I was definitely going to vote Democrat in 2008 just for the sake of choosing the less of two evils. Except when I have seen Ron Paul's "unpopular" stance and restoring the republic. What a huge unmistakable breath of fresh air. I think the most admirable thing is the fact that his views are so unaccepted. A run of the mill candidate would not dream of going against the political grain. For them it is all about leaning on whatever they can to get elected, everything else is second priority. Who else agree's with the new Ron Paul era?

Because everyone knows that national health insurance isn't socialized medicine. Yet all of the GOP presidential hopefuls are repeating that "scare term" over and over. The conclusion is that they are pinning their hopes on the Party-proven notion that the American public is an easily frightened constituency, and they intend to repeat scary words and phrases over and over, to beat people into becoming faceless, mindless ballots.

It is painfully clear that each candidate is bought and paid for, and simply reading the cue cards for the health insurance and pharmaceutical industries. I believe, however, that Americans have grown wise to such typical GOP scare tactics, that they will refuse to be pushed around once again by false fears and rather, they will seek out and investigate the TRUTH about what's going on with health care in America.

American folks?

I really don't care if something about not taking sides is serious or not. It's funny how every show, every topic, every debate, they all favor democratic candidates. Yahoo feels comfortable with a democrat, they assume if they picked a republican, everyone would bash them and boycott yahoo answers. Shouldn't yahoo know that Obama is inexperienced in foreign policy? That was the most uneducated debate I ever seen from last month. They can do much better than that. Pick a good Republican like Frank Thompson or Rudy Guiliani. Make politics FAIR and do the right thing.

Do you believe Romney Paul will be a good GOP ticket in 2008?
Is it true the G boys Rudy and Newt are running on the Green Party ticket?

House shifts $16 billion toward renewable energy!
Republicans called it a "no-energy bill" because it lacks new drilling incentives, and they derided the new emphasis on renewables as "green pork." The White House threatened to veto the bill on concerns that it could boost energy prices.

Didn't Bush say that the USA is addicted to oil and needs to find alternate energy sources? Or was he just refering to ethanol?

If a candidate raises 40 -100 million dollars , won't that candidate owe their position to those who paid to put them there?

If so, what are average working class citizens suppose to do for leadership in their behalf?

I saw the ABC debate this morning and I a very GWB impression - even though he was trying NOT to be like him. I could be wrong, I still got this impression with his political idelogy and his strong religious beliefs. He didn't speak well either. Do voters, Republicans, and people in general like this? If I am wrong, describe how he's different.

How would he do in the debate concerning issues like the economy or Homeland security?
Would the debate end there on stage or out in the parking lot?
Would he have the other candidates mics turn off when he don't agree with them?

Because everytime President Bush opens his mouth and says something the rest of the world shakes with fear and disbelief in equal measures, should the rest of the world have some say in who the US people elect??

Dear Mr. Howard,

I work hard and pay my taxes, so does my wife. We have no children (not by choice) so no child support benifit to us.

We don't have a mortgage so no tax break there.

We pay for private health care $320 per month and all we get back there is 30% rebate paid after July 1 and we also pay for medicare with is 1% of our salaries, - we don't go to a bulk billing practice so we are $35 out of pocket for each doctors visit.

I do have to buy over $200 worth of medicine per month to keep alive, so I have to spend over $1000 to start getting cheaper PBS medicines, so I'm still paying for medicines,
so I don't become a burden on society.

We are what most people are Middle class, not rich but OK -

What incentive is there for us to vote for your party ?

I am sick and tires of people acting as though because you are under 30 you are stupid enough to follow anything a politician tells you. One of the guys here said that if Hillary signed up her daughter she would get the youth vote. Why on the world would the youth blindly follow Hilllary simply if Chelsea works for her campaign? its the dumbest thing Ive ever heard.

Or Rock the vote. These people clearly dont understand the purpose of Rock music, which is as an expression AGAINST politics. Simply because some musician or actor says vote for a certain person all the youth in America are supposed to blindly vote for that person.

Is it any wonder the youth overwhelmingly dont vote?? Why the heck should we vote for any of these people who act like we are complete and utter morons?
