Isn't what we are doing now a waste of time and money when another hurricane would just cause the same disaster all over again?

according to the dictionary:

ter·ror·ism P Pronunciation Key (tr-rzm)
n.
The unlawful use or threatened use of force or violence by a person or an organized group against people or property with the intention of intimidating or coercing societies or governments, often for ideological or political reasons.

by this token: could it be argued the illegal invasion of Iraq, was in fact an act of state terrorism, designed to instill fear in the hearts of Middle Eastern Muslims?

why or why not would such an assertion be appropriate?

if elected i will ensure that the borders of the US are enforced. immigration services will be increased so we can keep track of those who enter the US. employers will be punished for knowingly hiring illegals. we will pull out of iraq, and allow a multination force to bring peace, while the US focuses on security at home.i will institute a massive plan that will ensure the US is energy independent in 7 years.i will focus on rebuilding US infrastrucrure, jobs, schools, education and making healthcare affordable.

With the Election of the REPUBLICAN canidate Abraham Lincon the Southern states felt that drastic measures were needed in order to protect there industry and the livelyhood of the people who lived there, (all people, only 12% of whites in the south owned slaves and almost all slaves were owned by verry rich people who treated them better than they had it on there own). Even today there are black heros in the civil war that not alot of northerners pay attention to because they want to use slavery as ammo against the south. Don't belive me take a look http://www.slrc-csa.org/site/news/2004/05-21-04b-news.php . To the Union the war was about numbers and buildings and smoke. To the Confederates it was about somthing more than that , somthing deeper. The forrests, the hills, the animals, all of it was protected and free under the C.S.A.

The Question is, Given the Oppertunity would you fight for the CSA In a Second Civil war ?

PLEASE no one get all radical and call me un-American and a traitor, but does anyone else find it painful to watch him try to answer unrehearsed questions?

No matter how you feel about him, he does not exactly inspire confidence when you see him struggle to answer questions.

What do you think? Again, this is NOT about his policies, so please don't get all radical in your responses and attack me.

In the UK you are fined for dropping ciogarette ash or for putting your rubbish out on the wrong day but if you hijack a plane from Kabul at gunpoint or publicly call for the murder of infedels non muslims by bombong or whtever you are given benefits, housing and police protection. Instead of watching big brother and the X factor isnt it time the British masses finally stood up for the majority views and staged a counter-revolution to rid these isles of this minority scurges?

Iran's leaders are refusing to comply with the dates previously agreed upon for UN inspections.

Wonderfuly enough, the white house has mentioned that in a hope for diplomatic resolution, they might consider allowing them public nuclear programs (such as power plants).

Sounds like North Korea a few decades ago to me.

For me it was 1981. I was the radical left back then. In my own arrogance I thought I knew all the answers back then. I really thought that if I could sit down with President Nixon for 10 minutes he'd see my wisdom and end the war. All the wisdom of a college kid. All my old friends have changed as well...some I would have never thought would. We've experienced life and the realities...geeezz it's a little embarrassing now...but we were stupid kids then.

Why does this "country/nation" deserve that such of privilege? To make the other countries lose their sovereignity to this ONE country?

PS: That means, there will be only ONE country in this world... all united under its flag!

Ok, so I see people asking questions like "do you hate bush" etc. For all those who do or don't, can you give a reason? or is it just cool? How many people are informed about his administration, the war, terrorists, etc. Have you studied the enemy? Just wondering...
