Other - Politics & Government - August 2006

They just want to ask questions about how much they hate neocons, but don't offer ANY solutions for ANY of the problems in our country (welfare, the deficit, the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan...). And then their BLOGS, OMG, all about how much they hate neocons, and how much Bush sucks, and how if everyone just votes Democrat the world will suddenly be a better place. Yay, no more world hunger! No more third-world countries, or hurricanes!
Democrats, don't these people put your party to shame? I know they don't speak for ALL of you. There are many decent liberals and Democrats on this site. I see you guys. *Smile*
Republicans, don't these people make you feel REALLY smart?
Americans, don't those people make you wish that the truth would come out that they're not American at all?
Independents, don't they make you feel glad that you're not associated with EITHER party?
NO political party has all the answers. The power is in the hands of the people, not the party!

1.There are rights, (free speech, the right to bear arms, the right of a jury trial before one's peers, etc.)
2. limits on the powers of the central government.

And if we can identify the freest, can we identify the least free?
1. the most laws
2. the greatest percentage of its population in jail (like Russia, the Union of South Africa, Iraq, Iran, and Afghanistan?)

Hurricane Katrina which hit New Orleans one year ago is described as catastrophic and the costliest and deadliest natural disaster in U. S. history. The economic, political and social implications of the disaster remain felt even today. The residents who were evacuated remain scattered and have not returned to their home base yet. The measures taken by the government were awfully slow and ineffective.

Isn’t a sad and surprise situation in a country claiming to be far advanced in every thing to find the affected people still left in the darkness! Despite what it has done, the image of the present Administration in the world is one of ‘utter failure’ in handling this humanitarian issue, as it is in dealing with many others, while unduly worrying about establishing democracy in other parts of the world!
What is your take?

When Jeff Foxworthy says "if your family tree has a straight line, you might be a red neck" he was right. Republicans and inbreeding are one in the same. Lets just take a look at what Republican inbreeding does http://www.cutepiggy.com/george_w_bush.html

You know your a Republican when you have to believe government has nothing to do with providing police protection, national defense, and building roads

You know your a Republican when the only way to raise your I.Q is by standing on a chair.

You know your a Republican when you lock your family in your convertable and have to get a hanger to get them out

What do you call a Republican in an institute for higher learning? A visitor?

What do you call 20 Republicans in a freezer? Frosted Flakes

When people are taken hostage the governments always say that they won't negotiate with terrorists. A lot of people go out and die because they think they owe something to their country, yet if they get caught no one seems to do much apart from watch. If I got taken hostage and they did that I would be mightily pissed off. How about you?

Can any Hebrew or Biblical scholars out there, convince me ( or anyone else) that the 1948-creation by U.S.A and Great Britain , to wit: the Nation -State of Israel, is the "real deal"?
Is this really where GOD/Jehovah sent His Chosen People?
Or is this just some "Frankenstein Monster"?
...a stillborn, dead, aborted country, with no culture, heritage, or soul, except to feed on the United States and Britain, as a Vampire feeds?
And how violent and warlike!
As with the Egyptians, the Assyrians, the Pheoenicians and the Canaanites, etc., Isn't it always the case with THEM, that they cause Trouble, but blame that trouble on their self-created so-called 'Enemies'?

If someone asks a good question and gets a lot of responses why shouldn't they be rewarded for it? Get one point for every person answering with a multiword response.

Recently I have managed to convince about 30 per cent of the people on this site that I have put my friends hamster in a shoe filled with slushie, electricuted it and put it in a blender to give back to him. Do you think people are becoming way too gulible? And if people believe this why are we suprised when Bush is re-elected?
