I hear people constantly say "I've never heard any Muslim speak out against 9-11"... but I've heard several?

maybe they should try looking? or change where they get their news...

here may be a good place to start if you've never heard any condemnations...

Apparently the utilities were once planned out payments. They have since increased enormously. Are there any Government plans that help out seniors?

So R's are supposed to be the ones who will protect us? Pat Roberts and Peter Hoekstra, two Rep. lawmakers pressured the Administration to post captured Iraqi documents on a web portal w/out fully vetting them and known risks. Clearly, we have some of the most retarded people running this country since they posted some very sensitive material purely for political gain w/out regard for national security. These idiots should be removed from office. Any other person who breached security of this sort would be-- and likely prosecuted as well.

The republican government has no interest in reducing pollution. Why? Do they care more about money and big business than the health of the people and the planet?

Afterall, "TAX cuts for the wealthy" are THESE people who benefit most. To RAISE taxes on the "RICH" would mean to do it to these people, who are accountants, small town lawyers, plumbers, or basically anybody who shows $100,000 in REVENUE a year.

So why do the DEMOCRATS want to RAISE taxes on THESE people? They're obviously not RICH?

Or has their "TAX CUTS FOR THE WEALTHY" rhetoric just tricked the sheeple into paroting their party line?

And why are they now trying to pretend they never said any such thing?

There is no doubt that... Saddam Hussein has reinvigorated his weapons programs. Reports indicate that biological, chemical and nuclear programs continue apace and may be back to pre-Gulf War status. In addition, Saddam continues to redefine delivery systems and is doubtless using the cover of a licit missile program to develop longer-range missiles that will threaten the United States and our allies.
Letter to President Bush, Signed by Sen. Bob Graham (D, FL,) and others, Dec, 5, 2001.

We begin with the common belief that Saddam Hussein is a tyrant and a threat to the peace and stability of the region. He has ignored the mandate of the United Nations and is building weapons of mass destruction and the means of delivering them.
Sen. Carl Levin (d, MI), Sept. 19, 2002.

We know that he has stored secret supplies of biological and chemical weapons throughout his country.
Al Gore, Sept. 23, 2002.

I just came back from the US (I'm in the UK). There was all this nonsense about Kerry saying some bad joke that suggested possible critiscm of the army. So what?! In the UK all areas are open for critical discussion-the army, the prime minister, foreign policy, the royal family, religion etc ALL get there fair share of criticsm - its how democracy works. But my impression of the US is of a lack of free speech where certain areas are way off limits- can't criticize the army, can't criticize religion, can't criticize. can't criticize the president in 'war time'.
The Thought police are in full effect. Its very undemocratic and very depressing to witness. Can anyone really justify the gagging of peoples views on these subjects. Small things like Ahbu Graib, thousands of civilian deaths etc did happen. Surely the army needs critical examination.

This is the war that never ends
And it goes on and on, my friend
President Bush started it not knowing what it was,
And it will continue on forever, and ever just because—
(repeat)

Vote Tuesday for change and solutions.

Currently only natural born US citizens can run for president. Should those who immigrate to the US be allowed to run for president? Or is it too much of a risk?

I think for my mind that the situation between United States and Iran is very critical and most of troubles hav'nt solved especialy about the atomic file So if United States the super power in the world decided to launch this invasion will loose many things as the world will be unstability and sure iran will launch diferent rockets as shehab3,4,5 against Israel and most of american bases in Iraq and terorism will started in most of world reigons Thus I think its better to try to solve all these crises in order to avoid the world this worst war and to achieve peace especialy all population of the world hate the war and all of us know that the war does't solve any problems Realy I hope that President Bush try to think more over to avoid us this worst war dr wagih

"Andrew Sullivan, the conservative writer who was once a key media supporter for the Iraq war, denounced the latest Bush statement on CNN on Wednesday night, stating that the president is so delusional, "This is not an election anymore, it's an intervention."
