I'm bored with the grassy knoll, faked moon landing, alternative 9-11 scenarios, masons, illuminati, hamburger group, etc. etc.
Is there anything new in the pipeline? How about Paris Hilton is actually a defective fembot, or something of that nature.

I drank for about 25 years and am pretty good at spotting the symptoms of alcohol abuse. Bush seems to be showing many of the physical signs of an alcoholic. Red face, over "puffy" eyes, etc. He speach patterns are randomly interrupted with an inability to focus on a thought long enough to complete a sentence and repeating the same phrase during a conversation.

I think he's laid down his coke spoon for some JD. What's your opinion?

2006-12-13 16:19:16 · 12 answers · asked by Anonymous

specifically his choice of words pertaining to the war,like when he says "We cant leave the job before its done" its like he's trying to appeal to some blue collar american work ethic. Like hes thiunkin we'll be like "yea, That wouldnt be right to leave the job before its done, thats not american!" But what i want to know is what is "the job" that has to be done?Bush?

He also says the enemy is not yet defeated. Who is the ******* enemy!!!!

Or am i an idiot. Maybe i just havent been paying enough attention fill in his blanks and read between the lines.

Please comment.

In American government we were assigned by the teacher to write a letter to someone in office (the president, senators, congress, etc). We are to tell them of a political concern and how we propose to remedy it. Ex) I think that law XYZ is flawed, and I think that we should do ABC.

Anyone want to help me out with ideas? It would be appreciated.
Preferably nothing about the war in Iraq.
And thanks.

needy? We can't even provide medical care for all of our citizens, and can't seem to provide decent medical care even for our veterans. Why are we sending our money to other countries?

hate to have to switch to republican just because we don't have any canidates worthy of voting for. Hillary or Obama? No, our country is not ready for that yet and I will NOT vote for tht, and by the way, I am a female. I would never vote for a female though, because I know what PMS is. And Obama? FORGET IT!!! SO, anyone decent worth voting for?

How can the greatest country in the world maintain that status if it is not competitive with its education? yet in this country, college costs are skyrocketing, public funding is decreasing, students required to pass a stupid test, and real learning is barely emphasized. My question is why dont we care more, and how can we justify taking money away from education, and never putting more in.

to do? Do they just follow blindly because they never had to think for themselves? Have their parents always paid someone to think for them or what?

If you could interview any 1 political figure, living or dead, in the entire world from 1901 to 2001, who would it be and why? The rules for this interview would be simple, they would have to be completely honest, allow any question, and no time limit.
For me this is an easy question, I would love to interview Richard M. Nixon. Not because I think he was a great President, but because of the stories he could tell. The political intrigue, the scandals, the CIA, FBI, the people he knew like Herbert Hoover and Richard Helms etc. At the zenith of his power, in 1972, there was nobody, and I mean nobody who knew more about the United States and it’s “hidden secrets” than him. Nixon was a very complicated and controlling individual by all accounts. None of Nixon’s people did anything without his approval, either written or verbal, which of course was his undoing in the Watergate fiasco. I just think he would be a thoroughly fascinating person to speak with. Henry A. Kissinger & Robert S. McNamara would be my 2nd and 3rd choices. How about you? What’s your choice?

Did the FBI rush out the list of 19 hijackers on 9/11 and perhaps make a mistake?

Some people say they did, including 9 of the 19 accused hijackers who are still alive. It's true.

Here's the proof:

http://www.welfarestate.com/911/
http://911review.org/Wiki/HijackersAliveAndWell.shtml

All 9 men deny flying a plane into the towers at 500MPH and want the FBI to take them off the terrorist list & upgrade them from dead to alive.

The BBC actually interviewed some of them and they were pretty convincing. They seem to have a pretty strong case to prove they didn't slam a jet into the towers and burn up in jet fuel.

Will the FBI believe them and admit its error? Especially now the FBI have quietly admitted that Osama Bin Laden probably didn't carry out 9/11:

http://www.twf.org/News/Y2006/0608-BinLaden.html

Serious though. At least 9 of the accused are actually alive and were not in the US on 9/11. The FBI know, but keep it out of the media.
