Government - August 2006

It was 11 on tuesday! Now it's 9?

Thursday Headline's: UK police free 1 bomb plot suspect, hold 8!?

So on and so forth.

Does this slow leakage of innocent suspected bombers, surprise you?

Does anybody else find this rather ammusing?

The Patriot ACT, fake terrorists attacks ie..... (9/11,Oklahomia City bombing, etc...) video cameras, illeagel wire tapping, and so on. The war on terror, the war on drugs, the war in Iraq, constitutional amendmennts bannig same sex marriages, and so on, seem to be to ground work to controlling every aspect our lives, the way we think, the way we act, and the way we live. It's the way the Romans, Hilter, and other dictators began.

He cares so much about the lives of unaware blobs of tissue that he won't allow research that could save millions of lives, but he'll eagerly send thousands of troops over to Iraq to be slaughtered and/or slaughter innocent civilians. Are the lives of the troops and civilians worth less than that of the blobs? Troops and civilians often have lives ahead of them, and families who depend on them. Embryos in utero are essentially parasites (they feed off their mothers and then **** inside of them), but they're worth far more than millions if not billions of people.

The zionist Jews in 1948 migrated and gathered from all over the world to Palestine and began their campaign to take the land from its original owners by force claiming they have religious and historical rights in these lands......Do you think they were right and the western countries should have helped them?

There are a couple of sides to this....Do you think that it should be banned...stay as it is.....or have the process sped up....

I think that if you are found quilty and sentenced to dealth, you should get one appeal....heard by a court that only handles appeals for capital cases, then, if the sentence stands you should be walked out of the court house takes to the chair, or injection table....what ever you state uses and get it over with....my tax money should have to pay for another 10 years of food, just so the state can kill you.

One of the pieces of evidence linking John Karr to the death of Jon Benet Ramsey was the government's intervention/viewing of e mails.

We all know how certain words will trigger of an investigation regarding crimes and terrorism. And perhaps, considering the consequences and intent, the government must do all it can to win the war on terror and apprehand criminals.

With the President of the United States in charge of the Internet, is our personal/national security and Constitutional freedoms being properly handled ?

Do you have any thoughts on the matter ?

Does it bother you to know the government may be viewing your e mails ?

If the CIA hired Blaine to walk through the smaller towns in the undereducated Islamic countries and do magic tricks perhaps he could trick the people into thinking he is the next coming of mohammad (much like in India the undereducated are swindled by local magicians who claim they can levitate).

If Blaine can get the support of the Clerics he might be able to take control of Islam and correct its non-peaceful ways.

Would this work? Would Blaine be down?

If 3000 people died in the 9/11 attacks, how many people should die in response? We have almost reached that number if you only count the 2,595 dead US soldiers from the war in Iraq. Should we count the dead Iraqis? There are reports of over 100,000 dead by the end of 2005! If you say yes to the original question, do you consider the US government to be a more severe terrorist than Al-Qaeda?

If Women can rule or run other countries, why can't we have a female president? Don't respond if you watch commander in cheif because that is a show, this question is about what would it be like in real life. Girls, do you really want a guy to tell you what you can and can not do for the rest of your natural lives?

"Make no mistake: The United States will hunt down and punish those responsible for these cowardly acts."

-George W. Bush, September 11, 2001


It seems to me like hijacking four airplanes and jamming three of them into buildings, killing 3000 people is a pretty gutsy thing to do. I don't understand what he meant by cowardly.

Dictionary says:
cowardly
adj : lacking courage; ignobly timid and faint-hearted;

What are people's thoughts?

If our government were allowed to fund one, and only one, of the following social programs, which should it be and why?

(1) Free public education for all US citizens, starting at kindergarten up through Associates Degree (or comparable professional certification).
(2) Free health-care (medical and dental) for all US citizens for life.
(3) Food stamps that can only be used to buy food for children who are US citizens, but that would be enough to eliminate child hunger nationwide.
(4) Retirement pay (social security) for all US citizens who worked at least 20 years in the US, starting at age 65.
(5) Disability pay for all US citizens who are unable to work because of physical disability, injury or illness.
(6) None of the above. Give the money back to the taxpayers.

If the government could only fund one of these programs, which would you pick, and why.
