I think it is because the Democrats can wave the flag, feel patriotic, and surrender all in one motion.

Opinions or ideas?

Or is it even up to them? Do African migrants in Europe call themselves Senagalese Dutchmen or Mauritanian Germans?

No matter what you think about what we should do in Iraq now, you must agree that the horror being lived by Iraqis will never be forgiven. Who will they blame ulitmately, for these things?

BAGHDAD, Iraq (CNN) -- A car bomb exploded Tuesday at a soccer field on the outskirts of Ramadi, killing 18 children, Iraqi TV reported.

The soccer field is in western Ramadi -- capital of the Sunni-dominated Anbar province. The children were playing on the field when the blast occurred, Iraqi TV reported. No other details on the attack were immediately available.

The soccer field attack followed terrorist bombings in Baghdad at a popular ice cream shop, a parking lot and a restaurant that killed eight people and wounded 24 on Tuesday....

I have my own opinions about it. I would like to hear from libertarians themselves. To me it is about individual rights and minimal government. Is there anything else I am missing?

Most soldiers support the war effort, most re-enlist, most are conservative, and most don't come from welfare.

I would imagine the dregs of society, prima donna students and welfare loosers, are the only ones throwing around the chicken hawk argument.

So, is everybody who supports the war supposed to fight?

How does it lessen pollution and help the environment if _I_ live a "carbon free life" while rich politicians buy my "carbon offset credits" and keep on driving Hummers, flying in their private 747's, riding around in stretch limos, using megawatt hours of electricity, etc.
How does that help the 'cause'?

Are you aware that NASA has detected global warming on the planet Mars? This warming strangely coincides with the current sunspot cycle. Funny how that works; the sun puts out more heat and its planetary system gets warmer.

The vice president has done that, Kreider argues, and the family tries to offset that carbon footprint by purchasing their power through the local Green Power Switch program — electricity generated through renewable resources such as solar, wind, and methane gas, which create less waste and pollution. "In addition, they are in the midst of installing solar panels on their home, which will enable them to use less power," Kreider added. "They also use compact fluorescent bulbs and other energy efficiency measures and then they purchase offsets for their carbon emissions to bring their carbon footprint down to zero."

Leahy: Can you show us in the authorization for use of military force what is the specific language you say that’s authorizing wiretapping of Americans without a warrant?

Gonzales: Sir, there is no specific language, but neither is there specific language to detain American citizens. And the Supreme Court said that the words “all necessary and appropriate force” means all activities fundamentally incident to waging war.

Leahy: Did it authorize the opening of first-class mail of U.S. citizens? That you can answer yes or no.

Gonzales: There is all kinds of wild speculation about…

Leahy: Mr. Attorney General, you’re not answering my question. I’m not asking you what the president authorized. Does this law — you’re the chief law enforcement officer of the country — does this law authorize the opening of first-class mail of U.S. citizens, yes or no, under your interpretation?

I often hear and read that Canadians would readily move in or join the States if they could. However, after having spent five years living and working in Western Canada I wonder why a Canadian would want to be an American. Their standard of living is excellent, they have free medical care, their cities are safe, their salaries are high, and they have no racial tensions as a result of the socio-economic disparities we see in the U.S. I think that the only thing that Canadians could envy from the States is the weather in the southern states.

The Venezuelan president asserts that the U.S. government is working on several plots to overthrow his socialist government. He is the one who called President Bush "the devil" before the UN assembly. Do you see the US intervening in Venezuela as likely? is it a good thing as Chavez is considered as a threat to the stability in Latin America?
