... why doesn't he let people speak their thoughts and beliefs during his interviews unless he knows they are off base enough on the facts that he can easily shut them down after they finsh speaking? I've seen and heard so many people get interrupted and told to "shut your mouth" when they are trying to share their valid points in a friendly and open manner. If he were such a fair host, why doesn't he shut up and wait for EVERYONE he interviews to speak their point? Now, I believe O'Reilly is the lesser evil of the conservative radio and television hosts, but he still has a venom saved for the people with honest thoughts and ideas. Being a democrat, I don't want to cut and run, I dont support terrorism, I don't hate America and I definately am not blindly followin Democratic candidates to undermind the freedom and greatness of this nation. Why does he label me so? Why does the phone screener for his radio show always hang up on me when I ask talk about about important issues?

From The UK Associated Press,
Former USA spy Ahmad Chalabi said this. "The USA should open talks with Iran. If America enhances the Iraqi army,improves it's intelligence, give Iraq and there Government more authority, amd open talks with it's neighbors such as Iran, coalition forces could begin withdrawal in less than two years." He cited the rise in American deaths and the sectarian violence in Iraq as reasons to talk with Iran about there role in the insurgency. He also criticized secret USA talks with Iraqs Sunnie Arab led insurgency. He said they would not help stabilize Iraqs fragile government or reduce violence.
By Steven R. Hurst and Qassim Abdul-Zahra for the Associated Press.
Iraqi premier is seeking more control over Army. Noruri al_Maliki demanded a video confernece with Bush. In that conference Maliki tod bush "I am a friend to the USA, but I am not Americas man in Iraq". Tony Snow confirmed that this was told to Bush. Bush was said to except Iraqs position that a renewal of the UN mandates for the US military was conditional on "swift action" to to hand full control of the Iraqi army to the Baghdad Government and the withdrawal of coalition forces when the Iraqi army is in fact ready.

And, if you've got more than $60,000 burning a hole in your pocket, he'll take $500,000 off you and let you sit at his table and bask in his presence while he eats his dinner. What a guy!

So lately I've been trying to learn more about the situation in Iraq. I want be able to evaluate possible solutions to the mess we're in. My congressman (Harold Ford Jr.) who's running for Senate proposes that we divide Iraq into three sections - Sunni, Shi'a, and Kurd - much like Bill Clinton did in Kosovo. He claims it wil ease some of the violence and undermine the insurgency. Sounds good, but I don't really know enough to realistically evaluate it. What do you think of this plan? Any ideas about how to get out of there with the least long-term damage in the smallest amount of time? What do you think Bill Clinton would propose?

Serious answers only, please. =)

Thanks in advance!!

When the U.S caused the whole mess. Seriosly the U.S generals are acting as if they are doing a huge favor for the Iraqi people and
that the Iraqi government is full of snobs who don't take care
of their country.I mean the U.S did cause the whole mess why expect the Iraqi's to take matters into their own hands?

I am a telecom installer in AT&T and Verizon central offices (read my story)Is my situation discrimination?
I worked in a central office installing telecom equipment and was reported to my company because I carry a pink toolbox and I also have a few pink tools. After working in the office, the office technician called my company and told them I could not have my toolbox or tools in the office again. I thought it was stange that I was the subject of a complaint because of the color of my tools. What is the difference between a yellow screwdriver or a pink screwdriver...they both work the same. I also cannot wear bows in my hair, have nail polish, or anything else like that. Is this discrimination? I am really mad and I feel that I have been discriminated against because of my gender! What do you think? My coworkers had red, black, and yellow tools and boxes....but I cannot have pink! What do you think???

Do you think there are enough Christians who would vote to amend the Constitution so that from now on our country could be based on Christian principals? We could teach ID in public schools and if they didin't like it, they could enroll their children in private secular schools. We could pray before a football game.
