Other - Politics & Government - September 2006

Has it not arrived - kindergarten for politicians? What do you think Churchill would have made of Blair or Brown for that matter?

Does anyone agree that Jeremy Paxman did a fine job on exposing what an arrogant, childish imp Blair is with the ''Do you pray with Bush" question?

And what of the future? Will anyone in politics ever tell the truth about America - that England has to do as we're told or else - after all what good are our nukes if the Americans are sulking with us and won't let us use their targeting satellites?
Not much point having the codes then really is there?

And what of the English language - are we soon going to be reduced to exclaiming the meaningless expression Hey! when we we greet each other like they do? Power OUTAGE? When there is a powercut in America does the power go on it's travels somewhere?

But most important of all - will I be able to buy a BIg Mac and fries in Bagdad soon with a nice strawberry milkshake to pour on my head when I get blown up ?

and it rules with out the consent of the governed? On July 4th 1776 our founders said Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, That, whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such Principles, and organizing its Powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness...[W]hen a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object, evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security. - Valid then and valid now.

Very young children in a romote area with little access to the real world. Doesn't this remind you of the Taliban?

Is it true that the LDS(Mormon) Church has SO much power over all of you that...

You CANNOT be Mayor/Police Chief/ Fire Chief of ANY Utah city, sheriff/county commissioner of ANY Utah county, work in ANY business in Utah...

...unless you are a LDS member in good standing?...

My son says it's discrimination, I say "NO"!!!...who's right?

I just came back from Japan and I was blown away, politics, foriegn policy and crazy right wing religious nuts aside the quality of life is so much better there. Not only do they live longer they are happier, their cities are clean, employment is abundent, education standards are high and they retain a rich culture while innovating with technology and science. Not only Japan, Switzerland and France for two should be models for us.

"Of course the people don't want war. But after all, it's the leaders of the country who determine the policy, and it's always a simple matter to drag the people along whether it's a democracy, a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism, and exposing the country to greater danger."

Public Broadcasting Station, how Senator Goldwater would be appalled if he saw how the religious right has taken over the Conservative Party. Smiley referred to Goldwater as an American icon and pointed to Goldwater's views in the book written by Goldwater, 'The Conscience of a Conservative'.

Was CC Goldwater right about the strong differences between the Goldwater concept of being a conservative and the modern day Conservative Party?

Are you a conservative and are you satisfied with the direction of the Conservative Party in matters of abortion, education, civil rights, President Bush, etc.?

Your thoughts as a conservative or a liberal, remembering U.S. Senator John Kennedy and U.S. Senator Goldwater served in the U.S. Senate at the same time and were friends and knew each other very well.

yes, we all see these lame *ss questions all the time... but h*ll, I'll throw my hat into this ring of lameness... (which always has the same answer of "somewhere in between and most people don't fit exactly into any political camp")

my foremost issue is Osama and getting him and diverting all military efforts to this end, regaurdless of political repercussions... we went in Iraq for the pansy reason of "WMD" that totally destabilized their country, but we can't go after Osama who killed 3,000 on U.S. soil? Pakistan seems to be either playing both sides or couldn't do anything if it wanted too... either way, we need to step in and do the job...

my second issue health care... I'm pro-social medicine and believe that you can't put a price on good health, so it can't work in capitolism... as skyrocketing prices seem to show...

third issue... poverty... I think there should be large changes to welfare and that vocational education programs should be put into place...
