Government - July 2006

The U.S. is being told by everyone to go home and leave the Middle East. They say what happens there isn't our business. I believe that is why we are there. Because, every body else is fine with ignoring the atrocities taking place on the people in other countries. We have laws against ignoring a crime in this state. If you are at a murder scene and you don't do anything to stop it, you can be found guilty of complicity in the commitance of the crime. If you happen upon a car wreck and you have the ability to rescue the person without harm to yourself and you do nothing, you can be convicted of willing neglect leading to the eventual death of the victim. Why do should the ideals we have stop at our borders. I would be disgusted with my country if we didn't at least try. If the military would of had me, I would of volunteered for service. I want to be a hero also. I know we are responsible for the deaths of innocent civilians. That is the nature of war and why it should be a last resort

Bush and his Gang at 35%
There never has been in American history a more incompetant, useless bunch of people and that includes those sycophant Generals operating in Iraq. Those " Generals" must be more frightning to the soldiers than the insurgents.

I know it's really scary to think that our leader could have gotten his thoughts confused but do you think he meant what he said?

Apparently Putin is pondering the offer from Bush but I saw on the news this morning that the pundits are thinking that Putin will decline Bush's offer.

What do you think? Do you think Putin will take Bush up on it and start turning the party apparatus towards an Iraqi style of democracy? I know it's the marvel the world over but still, I'm a bit pessimistic.

I hear all the time that the war in Iraq is illegal, I have not heard why it is illegal. Is it because the UN said we shouldn't go? If thats the case do you think the UN would have agreed for us to go fight the Germans? I'd say no. But I have not heard one good shred of fact for them to say it was "illegal". Can anyone answer that for me?

i mean look at it, alot of people say that there would be chaos and stealing and all that but if there wouldnt be laws and if they couldnt keep us under control, there would be no reason to do any of that. u could have anything u want without have to say give me that or i will kill you, u could have it with no problem and it would all together create a system of happiness, what do u think.

"BROTHER RAY DOES IT AGAIN!"

(and, just keeps on doing it!)


"GO'HED'ON, BROTHER!"

Do you remember New Orleans 'Katrina mayor, Ray Nagin'?

The one that tried to teach 1,200 buses to swim while his citizen's drowned? Once again, he has demonstrated his ability to deal with hard realities. According to 'The New Orleans Times Picayune ' there were 50,000 vehicles ruined in Katrina and abandoned by their owners.

The largest auto crusher east of the Rockies, 'K&L Auto Crushers of Tyler, Texas' offered to pay the City of New Orleans $100.00 per vehicle, .... an estimated "$5 million net to the city." They agreed to bring in 5 to 10 portable crushers, work 6 days per week, and complete the job in 15 weeks. Of course, mayor Nagin knew better how to do the job, and refused the offer saying the city would do the job themselves. It seems that now it will cost the City $23 million to complete the job. The vehicles are still there today instead of being cleaned out 5 Months ago.

Now, lets see if I have this correct. By doing it K&L's way the City of New Orleans would net $5 million. Doing it mayor Nagin's way costs the city $23 million for a net cost to the City of New Orleans of $28,000,000. This is the same mayor that wants 'the United States Taxpayers' to give $50 billion to New Orleans and let him rebuild a "Chocolate City" his way
WITHOUT any oversight or any control. Did you read this correctly, ladies and gentlemen? .... he wants $50 BILLION of your money to rebuild the City of New Orleans .... HIS CHOCOLATE WAY!!! http://www.snopes.com/katrina/politics/carcrush.asp

Ok Republicans, I want to know why you still think it's ok to be in Iraq, why bush continues to lie about not knowing who leaked the CIA official on retaliation, not doing anything about the Katrina situation when it was evident he knew and didn't care, and giving the top 5% tax breaks?

Or would you create your own? Feel free to support your government type with reasons why you chose it. The answer which is closest to my own, or which sways my opinion the most gets "best answer".
