Other - Politics & Government - November 2006

immigration, abortion, stem cell research, major environmental issues, tax issues, whether or not to pull out of the war, etc. they could have 2-4 votes per year on major issues and let the people decide...i really think the power needs to come back to the people not left entirely up to the government (no matter who is in power). too long have we had to sit back and watch the politicians make decisions that affect our lives without us having any say at all. it seems only the special interests groups with the most money have their say. this nation is supposes to be a government for the people and by the people, when did we lose that right? how do we get it back and when? personally i want my say back now !

I love it. I think it is either the following day after Thanksgiving or on that Saturday. I believe it is sponsored by adbusters.com. Down with mindless consumerism. Make life about ideas rather than things.

Wasn't it already starting to crumble by the mid 70's when punk came out, a full three years before Thatcher came to power.

Why do you think that small & medium size business bosses who HAVE to obey EU laws concerning employment (such as those who are members of UKIP) try to convince the rest of of us Brits that the EU is a bad place to be? Maybe they have a hidden agenda... back to the days before a minimum wage, sweat-shops and no guaranteeed minimum 20 paid holidays per year? Your views please.

I know he acted stupid now by writing a book ,which is now cancelled probably just to make extra few Millions,But hardly we ever realise that 2 people were murdered and LA police has not done any thing to find the real killer.Judge Ito was a very weak Judge ,he should have called FBI to investigate Mark Furman when he took the fifth amendment.I do not belive OJ killed his Wife because of following reasons.
1 Who bought the ice cream,why he was not broght into court the kids know his identity?
2.Nicole was on telephone with her Mom when OJ was already in the Plane.Why it was kept secret[The Telephone record]
3 Why the Hispanic Maid was harrased and she had to flee from America?
4.Why Mark Furman Who was off duty at the time sprang into action at this late in the evening and collected evidence .Probably he was the one to plant it.
5.Why were not the kids Interveied they knew who was fighting with their Mom.
I think it was a delibrate attemt to divide White and Black Americans.

Syria & Iran is why we must win in Iraq. both these countries want to make that whole regian a Islamic state like them self. Their goal is to push all western influince out of the region so the Muslims have absolute power. This will really cause a problem with the rest of the world. We can not allow this to happen We WILL have world war 3 then Also their goal is to wipe Israil off the map. No other nation is as close to Israil as we are If we cut & run now & let Iran & Syria have their way We will REALLY have a globel problem . If we think things are bad now , What will happen then?

Will the Democrats do more than Republicans about keeping criminals and illegals out? I mean not all who come here are criminals, because our ancestors came here, what should we do?

In 1641, the Dutch governor of Manhattan offered the first scalp bounty; a
common practice in many European countries. This was broadened by the
Puritans to include a bounty for Natives fit to be sold for slavery. The
Dutch and Puritans joined forces to exterminate all Natives from New
England, and village after village fell. Following an especially successful raid against the Pequot in what is now Stamford, Connecticut, the churches of
Manhattan announced a day of "thanksgiving" to celebrate victory over the
heathen savages. This was the 2nd Thanksgiving. During the feasting, the
hacked off heads of Natives were kicked through the streets of Manhattan
like soccer balls.

The killing took on a frenzy, with days of thanksgiving being held after
each successful massacre. Even the friendly Wampanoag did not escape.
Their chief was beheaded, and his head placed on a pole in Plymouth,
Massachusetts
