When this all started North Korea agreed to trade out their graphite-moderated reactors with light-water reactor, and the us would provide them with an annual 500,000 tons of fuel to help meet the deficit until the plant was completed. They renigged on that agreement just a couple years after ground breaking, and reopened their old plants and waste and began enrichnig uranium for warheads.

considering that the country has comepletey disregarded all their commitments agreed upon at all the completed six (and three) party talks, which resulted in them increasingly strengthening their nuclear arms program, how do we trust these people?

If the US agrees to their demands, it would not only leave their neighbors open to attack (and environmental contamination), but they would carry on their devious way with full nuclear capabilities and no way of stupping them short of war.

So what do you think?

Assuming I am someone who does not vote (which I'm not, I vote every election) If you were trying to change my mind away from the party I was going to vote for to yours what would you say to change my vote?

I used to be "labeled", though I really thought I was more moderate, as a Republican. But lately the republicans have become so...Stupid.
We used to be about lowering taxes, against nation building, fighting corruption, minimizing the red tape, pretty much saving money anyway we could.
Now it seems we have lost our way. Almost a billion tax payers dollars are blown every day on some sh1th0le country that has done nothing thus far to help our economic situation. The taxes have actually increased, cost of living has gone up, we are building two countries right now, corruption is rampant with Cheney and Haliburton, and frivilous government spending is at an all time peak with inadequet programs, FEMA, Homeland Security, sending soldiers to the border with Mexico!
Not to mention the fact that govt has gotten bigger, deciding who gets married, wire-tappings, and such.
What is worse is the Democrats suck worse. We need Ross Perot back.

Is there something seriously wrong with the education system in the South? Or is their drinking water some how contaminated with mind altering drugs?

Just what do working class people get out of siding with the party that backs big business, big money, and cares nothing for the rights of the individual?

Or do you think it's a hopeless cause that you can't have any affect on? Seems to me there is a lot of complaining, but nobody does anything to initiate change. I, for one, am trying to get the word out to anyone and everyone about a third party I believe strongly in - the Constitution Party - since both the right and left wing have pissed me off too many times. May not seem like much, but at least I'm trying.

I personally don't. Mostly because I know it's just being thrown out by someone who's probably at least as far left as they are trying to claim you may be right. Not to mention, it seems to me there is no clear definition of what a NEOCON is and it appears to be a made-up term to be used as an insult. Why don't they start using "cootie-head" instead? It would be about as mature.

Incidentally, is it a requirement or something to always write it in CAPS? I rarely see it otherwise.

And for everyone who is going to run to wikipedia, I've already got it and this line sticks out to me the most:

The term "neocon", while increasingly popular in recent years, is somewhat controversial and is rejected by many to whom the label is applied, who claim it lacks a coherent definition.

The price for living has increased quite a bit since then. Please give me a reasonable response. I hate the upper one percent as much as the next man, but let's get specific.

I heard that the poet laureate of New Jersey was asked to step down because he asserted that there was some conspiracy. Weird.

I really think that Liberals have only recently learned how to deal with mean-spirited behavior and underhanded tactics? Liberals want to think the best of all people but enough was enough after the 2nd time Georgie stole the election? Do you think we are learning how to give tit for tat and they don't like it?

I have been participating for about 5 days and have noticed that the questions have gotten way off base and out of hand. Maybe there is a tool among us.

Some guy asked bout liberals hating Bush and all these neocons come on there answering with things like... cuz they have no brain cells, cuz they are morons, cuz they can't think, ....

Absolutely hilarious when you consider the fact the Republican party used CLINTON HATING to take control of the house and senate in the 90s.
Then they continued this HATE-Clinton voting method by painting it on GORE.. using it to get BUSH elected in 2000. Shoot some of them STILL bring up Clinton.

90s through 2001, every political conversation evolved around hating Clinton.. just like they accuse us of doing about Bush now. LOL

Republican brain 'it's ok for me but when they do what I do, they are morons'. LOLOL
