Here is a prediction. Muslim extremist will go after the vatican in repsonse to Pope Benedicts comments. The pope might be killed. When this happens Catholics around the world will repond with such vengence of which the world has not seen in a long time.
Then there will be a war they extends to every country and this war will be a actual holy war. Let us see in a few years if I am right.

Its one thing to have a difference of opinions. Good people disagree all the time but I dont understand why the so called "peace" lovers are trying to spread so much hate? Seriously, I had a friend that almost hung up on me just because I mentioned that I am a conservative. I have different ideas than her so- so what? I wasnt argumentative or hostile, just have a different view.....I wish we could all unite against our real enemy- the terrorists and stop fighting with each other.

How many honest politicans can you name? And what is the odds that any politician is being honest all the time?

I just read a post saying Bush has never lied? I mean seriously, what are the odds of that happening? NEVER? Isn't that a bit naive?

but regaurdless of the party... isn't it naive?

"71% of the population want America to cut its financial contribution to the UN. A majority from every geographic, demographic, attitudinal and political subgroup wants to see reductions in American funding.

The rejection of the UN is bipartisan. Democrats expressed negative evaluations of the UN performance only slightly below the national average, while Republicans were slightly above."

Really...Lets sit around like idiots with our heads up the Democrat's asses and let the enemy strike first just to keep everybody happy and not hurt anyone's feelings. Am I the only one who sees that Iraq WAS a threat to us that needed to be dealt with? Or would everyone be happier being blown up with nukes?


hint: There were weapons of mass destruction. What do you think the terrorists moved in the underground tunnel system? Weapons of mass destruction? Well gee, that kinda makes sense.

I know I am going to get a whole herd of George Bush haters on this one but I know he is not the anticrist so get over him already. Seriously,....who do you think it is? The Bible says he will be attractive, and very well liked when he is introduced. He will be a Peace promoter and a humanitarian on the surface....Hmm.....I have my own idea of who I think it is and he posesses all of these qualities. So,....what do you think?

Fear alone can force the politicians, bureaucrats and anyone else to stay away from corruption. Fear alone can bring discipline, order and accountability in public administartion. We have to invent a transparency mechanism so that all transactions are available for public scrutiny.

I read so many conservative questions and it's all just hate, no facts, no reason... only "liberals are the scum of the earth and love terrorists..." on and on...

what is the point of doing this over and over with no facts or reasons for even what you believe?

NONE OF YOU EVEN DEFINE A LIBERAL... and you all have different ideas of what a liberal is...

I mean... it seems like the hate questions on the liberal side get a few responses... but not much... and it seems to often be about bush... a REAL PERSON... with REAL BELIEFS... and some of his ideas aren't the greatest and may need discussion...

but a hate question on the conservative side is just like 20 answers of pure hate in like 5 mins with no facts or logic about a group that poorly defined?

how does that make conservatives look... I mean really?

it gets out of hand on both sides sometimes, but it just seems to be so intense for fellow Americans on the conservative side...

I'll give you mine:
1)Iraq- Whether we win or lose, it will affect this nation as well as the rest of the world.
2)Economy-People really care about the economy and what is happening. People will not be happy about the war and certain political parties if the economy is bad. A good economy will favor the political party in power.
3)Iran's nuclear ambitions-We must deal with this problem now sooner than later. If Iran is allowed to have nukes, then the U.S. and its allies are in great danger.
4)Illegal immigration-I am not against immigration; it's just that illegal immigration cannot continue. These people are breaking our laws and if this continue, it will have great consequences for America and Mexico. For America, the southern border states will be dominated by these people and eventually taken. For Mexico, their economy would fall because most of their work force will be in the U.S. I'd write more but i'm running out of space.

First, I'd like to point out that I am hard-core left wing and atheist. I'm probably not capable of thinking a single conserative thought!

I am a post-degree Education student. I work in the Education library at my university. The other day the library did an orientation sesson for incoming students. Currently, the students are studying "Responding to Diversity". As part of the orientation session, the library staff (my bosses) played a video clip from The Colbert Report, which emphasized the inaccuracies of Wikipedia. The clip also contained materials insulting Bob Jones University (and in my opinion, insulting Conservative Christians). Everyone in the orientation sesson laughed.

It seems odd to me that mocking a Christian university would be part of the "Responding to Diversity" orientation. I can't help but wonder if any of the students in that session were offended or made uncomfortable by the video. It seems highly inappropriate to me. What should I do / have done?

I read a recent article that stated the next presidential campaigns will run up to 500 million dollars. The American people say they want someone like them who can relate to them, well someone who has that much money can not relate to us. I know alot of it is donated but those donors are very wealthy as well.

So what does a person do who wants to run for president do and they definatley donot have that kind of money.\
BTW spell check is not working,lol

NOW before you get your panties in a bunch just listen.

I watched the path to 9/11. Im on the middle of the fence on this but several times when someone tried to do something against a middle easterner who might have posed a threat, someone stepped and said STOP! WE can't its racial profiling, we'll get sued. At least 3 times in the movie that I can recall this was referenced. ( im not saying I believe all of the 9/11 commission report so lets just act like its fact for sake of argument )

So do you think the way we handle poiltical correctness is more important than making sure a group of people who are only interesting in landing and or just flying a plane is more important to save face, ignore that and see what happens?
Please be adult about the answer, Im just curious to see if people would think that saving face is more important then us being safe
