I would like to know why we are preaching about democracy when a supreme court had to determine the country's current president? What is democracy for when the majority of citizens oppose the iraq war no one seems to listen to them. Isn't it time to concentrate on issues here at home.

John Doe, April 2012) ... Four years after the withdraw of American soldiers from Iraq an estimated 8.5 million Iraqi's have been murdered. 4.2 million have been children between the ages of 1 and 12. After the democrats abruptly pulled America out of Iraq and the war on terror, they are now being pleaded with by Americans and the international community to go back in and intervene to stop the worst case of genocide since the Holocaust. Although an intervention is impossible at this point because of Iran's nuclear weapons stockpile backed by threats to launch on New York City and LA ( Chicago and Washington are still completely destroyed by the first wave of nuclear strikes from unseen enemies thought to be backed by North Korea, Iran, and the ruling Al Qaeda party "RAP" in Iraq). It appears America is powerless to stop the genocide. It can hardly defend itself now because of the economic damage caused by the nuclear strikes and is in danger of being brought before the UN Security Counsel for genocide itself. The 5 perm members (Venezuela, Russia, NK, Iran, Cuba) are bringing America before the counsel to impose “blanket sanctions” on America which would entail the freezing of all American bank accounts, technology services from the Middle East, as well as the stopping of all food imports to the country. 50% of Americans are out of work and the dollar has lost virtually all of its value rendering most of America in a state of nation wide starvation. The initial nuclear attacks on America claimed 14.3 million lives and 1,000’s more are dying everyday from the nuclear fallout. 6.8 million have been reported dying from starvation as I write this letter. The future for America looks grim. Infact most experts believe America will be dead in a matter of years. A once great nation is gone. The American dream has now become getting to eat once a week. A proposal from NK and Iran have offered to lift sanctions and send much needed food and drinking water if America agrees to denounce Christianity and swear “allegiance to the Army of Islam”, agree to have all women veiled permanently as well as be impregnated by a “true Muslim”. All white and black men must be sterilized so as to speed up the process of “out breeding the American infidel.” According to our sources Hilary Clinton is entertaining the idea and should be making the decision sometime this week… Pray America. Or should we say…pray while we still allowed. God bless America…she will be missed

i have an income tax question. my boyfriend is single (of course) and lives in an apartment. he therefore has no house and owns no property for a tax write-off nor does he have any write-offs that are work related. he gets to claim his 2 kids on his taxes every other year. this year he does not get to claim them. he grosses about $35,000 per year. last year he claimed ZERO single (and got to claim his 2 kids) so he got a $4000 tax return. this year he changed his filing status to ONE single and does not get to claim his kids. If someone in his situation and income bracket claims ONE single, will they owe taxes at the end of the year?? We are hoping that he will at least break even and not owe anything...

You say liberals are responsible for the social programs that help people BUT YET you claim we hate GOD. YET republicans are the party of GOD and MORALITY and you want to cut out all social programs and just let people live on the street and fend for themselves. It's just so confussing these days. It seems everything is twisted.

Why is it that every time i post a question at least 2 or 3 liberals can not give me a straight answer or think like a concerned human being, you say i am stupid, i am an idiot, you hate my God. lol man does it ever end? I f your going to answer a question at least throw some other wording in the sentence and act like a civilized educated human being. I am not talking about all liberals, just all the numbnuts who give a short, quick bashing answer, which seems like what MOST of you know how to do. lol It doesn't bother me for someone to have a different opinion than mine, but jeez, at least give a sound non-bashing answer if thats at all possible criticism can only make me stronger and gives me a better opportunity in the future to fight back.

From the NY Times Oct 17:

“Congress had no justification for suspending the writ of habeas corpus — a core value in American law — in order to avoid judicial review that prevents government abuse,” said one leading critic, Senator Patrick J. Leahy, the Vermont Democrat who is his party’s senior member on the Senate Judiciary Committee. He called it “a sad day when the rubberstamp Congress undercuts our freedoms.”

So, I guess dictator Bush and his corrupt cronies in Congress--in the name of "The War on Terror"--has found an excuse to suspend our constitutional rights and have ANYONE HELD WITHOUT CHARGES AND WITHOUT EVER HAVING A RIGHT TO A LAWYER AND A DAY IN COURT! This can apply to ANYONE deemed by the government as a threat and GUESS WHAT? If could be anyone like you and me who dare says anything critical of the government because the burden of proof--habeus corpus--and having evidence, witnesses, and all that pertains to having a fair trial has been tossed in the garbage!

Clinton handed Bush a 4.2 rate... and it's 4.6 now?

is that something to brag about? I mean it's not "high"... but it's not improving the situation any?

I just find it odd?

Clinton was handed a 7 percent rate... and got it down to around 4... that's pretty good improvement over 8 years if you ask me...
