what is there to back money up? how did money get so valuable? i understand that it's kind of like bartering but just a more organized way, but why doesn't the government just make a bunch of money and give it to poor people?

George W Bush told victims trapped in flooded and devastated New Orleans that he would remember them long after his one-day visit to areas battered by hurricane Katrina.

"I'm going to fly out of here in a minute, but I want you to know that I'm not going to forget what I've seen. I understand the devastation requires more than one day's attention," Mr Bush said.

"It's going to require the attention of this country for a long period of time. This is one of the worst natural disasters we have faced, with national consequences and therefore, there will be a national response."

Has he forgotten? Have we all forgotten?

meanwhile because of him the threat of terrorism in the Middle East has reached new heights, surpassing the wildest imaginations of Al-Qaeda and others.
Careless errors, incompetence, and utter failure need to be recognized...and so people should NOT be proud of him for the wars. He is a doing a pathetic job!

Heck, for the fun of it go to Google and type in "failure" and click on the button "I'm feeling lucky" and tell me what you get.

I would really like to hear I'm wrong about this, but I fear it's the truth.

Bolton fights for our country and is no big fan of the UN.
These are the reasons most dems want him gone-no surprise there, but shouldn't Bush at least make them(dems) filibuster his continued posting as Ambassador?

Why do they still send out their secret KGB cells to go and kill ex agents, does this not show they still are very much communists at heart clinging to old "Russian" ways of doing things and can never change ? Just put some radioactive plutonium or whatever on an umbrella or something and jab the ex agent in Britain or poison a Government opposition party offical, that will sort it out !

According to Philip Johnston's article in today's Telegraph, most people will have no choice about having their personal details entered in the national ID database because it will happen automatically when we apply for a passport. This could be extended to driving licence renewals. As he says, not having a passport or driving licence is not a realistic option for most people.

Later on in his article, he claims that there will be hundreds of thousands of ID refuseniks who will refuse to have an ID card.

Johnston doubts that the government would really be able to track down these hundreds of thousands of refuseniks.

Is it possible to have one's details entered on the register but then to refuse to have an ID card?

If the government does need to track anyone down, surely this would be relatively easy if their details are on the database?
