So I was just watching the news and I did not realize that all of those lazy New Orleans people in houston who didn't bother to go look for jobs are cut off now. As of today their rent will no longer be paid for. Did anyone else know this?

I am expecting to see my apartment complex clear out, my apartments are pretty expensive there is no way these people can afford them.

Lets say 12 days before Christmas an atomic bomb goes of in a major city like Miami, LA, NY, Colorado etc. Not a big one, maybe half the power of the Hiroshima bomb, suggesting it was a suitcase nuke with a mytrdom bomber. 12 hours go by and no one claims responsibility. No Hamas, no Al Qaeda, no one. Who would Bush slate to get nuked for some pay back? And would he use the attack as a pretext to nuke one of the many nations that are a torn in his side(if there were evidence or not)and who would they be?

Will Democrats succeed in overturning Republican rule in Congress, or will Republicans be vindicated by voters?

The m. east is very big place that cannot be populated on every inch of space to think of overpopulation letterly. In my opinion can take more people, communities and cultures. Saudi Arabia is very big with large empty expanse of land, same goes for Iraq, Syria, Jordan, & many others in the region. This region and people also lay claim to one of the best civilisations and peaceful religion- Islam, religion of peace and tranquility with ability to help te needy without limitations/ hesitation. Knowing this to be tenets upon which culture and religion of the people is based, I cannot understand therefore why the whole countries in that region always fight with Isreal over a land strip that is not up to 1/50th of Saudi Arabia alone!!! With ability to assist others inbedded in the beliefs, why can't Isreal be accepted as a multicultural openess policy and accomodate Palestinians whom identifiy more with unicode of the region in other areas, showcasing peaceful Islam to the whole world?

Bush maybe the WORST communicator to ever hold Public Office BUT when you talk about "Foot in Mouth Disease" you are talking about "Howard Dean" !!!

Why did Dems make him their DNC "leader" instead of their mascot the position now held by 100 Proof Ted Kennedy!

Why would they do such a self defeating self efacing thing?

He is a liability, an embarrasment, inept and quite frankly his mental stabilty has come into question many times?

The last great towering Democrats went the way of FDR, Jack and Bobby Kennedy. Now all they have 'left' (no pun intended) are Howard and Ted...not very inspiring.

No policies, no plans, no specifics, just Liberal Left ideology and Blind Bush Bashing and Blame America First rants 24-7!

Saudis are ruled by kings and not elected presidents. Is it because saudis are american puppets? The saudis are intolerant of any other religion,cast,culture and mis-treat foreigners who are employed there. Why force other middle east countries into democracy when the main player in the region is a dictatership? Why double standards? saudis are the main financiers of wars in the region from behind the scenes. Americans with all there sofisticated intelligence network must surely know this? It is known fact that they finance groups labelled as terrorist organisations. So why is nothing being done about this?They are definately not a moderate islamic nation because they follow none of the islamic principles.

I can only surmise it's a because of a lack of intelligent argument. I have NEVER insulted those that I disagree with politically with personal insults (even if they've deserved it!), yet they call me vile and ugly things. Why?

To have answers we must ask questions.Who creates wars without care about what a war brings? Which politician has sent their children to war, while justifying it for all sorts of reasons.What should the electorate do when the people we elect to represent us , dont but work for different agendas...like fame, money, popularity and more...what do we do..its a universal question for the whole world.Hitler didnt care people were dying including his soldiers like Lyndon Johnson in Vietnam.Both say they were winning-but the body bags dont lie..isnt there another way?

Does anyone know of an organization or group, that I can become involved in, that is about trying to change local government or at the federal level, for that matter. I live in orange county california, and thing's here now go far beyond logic or common sense! I truly believe that a organization need's to be created to watchdog government. Although I also believe, thing's may be so far gone, as far as polititian's having a strong foothold, that thing's will never improve for the better of the american people. Is there anything I can do to contribute, besides voting. I allready do that. It really does very little good. Remember I said very little good, not no good at all. Concerned American.
