In nearly every video released by terrorist cells they have their faces covered up. If they are as tough and as brave as they think they are why wouldn't they show their face and become a known enemy?

I thought you conservatives were good christians, but only when it comes to limiting the rights of others I guess. Do you think that welfare is the good life? If you paid your employees more they wouldn't have to collect it to buy food for their children. It makes me mad that you would rather take care of Exxon than a family that needs the money to survive, it's mostly people who were injured or crippled and can't work, or single mothers trying to make it, maybe she got away from an abusive partner, or maybe he left, but all you talk about is the small percentage who abuse the system

Why continue to send ground troops over there, if winning this war is so diar, then we should be pulling ground troops out and sending air troops in!!!! Bush needs to get his head out of his @$$ and quit raping and robbing and pillaging!!!! He's already made his fortune off the oil industry, why does he have to keep dragging it out?

Liberals tend to live in the moment and NOW, because they dont believe in an afterlife. Conservatives tend to drag their feet in life, thinking theres more.

then use violence to stop conservatives from speaking? It constantly happens in public forums and universities in the US. Is there a class at Columbia that teaches liberals how to use violence to suppress alternative views?

Tony Dungy and Lovie Smith were the first black head coaches to be in the Super Bowl. Dungy was the first black man to win one. Condi Rice was the first black woman to be Sec of State. Colin Powell was the first black man to be Sec of State. Blacks run businesses and have a dominance on most professional sports.

If this is not enough, what would be? When will people admit that blacks have made it to the top in every industry?

I am looking for honest answers here.

How's this for a way to recruit volunteers for Iraq?

Just plan a great big hunt in Iraq this Easter--and anyone who signs up for a tour of duty gets to join the hunt.

Only instead of eggs, you hunt for th e$12 billion in cash Bush lost. If you find it you get to keep it!

Makes as much sense as any of the GOP ideas! :)

Basically, what I mean is that a higher amount of tax is stripped away from higher money makers. The percentage stays the same for everyone, but the amount of dollar changes between people. Like lets say the Iraq War Tax is a fixed percentage at 5% for every American citizen's gross annual pay. The tax is mandatory for every American citizen. Even the president of the United States. So John Doe makes 30,000 gross each year and dishes out 5% for the mandatory war tax. Which equals to $1500. Which However, Mr. Bill Gates who probably makes 10,000,000,000 gross a year, dishes out $500,000,000. No one escapes it everyone is equal. Now I ask people to engage in this. Doesn't this seem right. Wont this help cut the gap between the rich and middle class? It may sound a little communist, but come on who doesn't want to be equal. Being better is not fair. Anyone have anything to say about this type of tax system?

America is based on our politicians making compromises, from where Washington is, to the creation of a Federal Bank and Army, to the 1964 Voting Rights Act. So why don't politicians today compromise? Is there anyway to get America back on track?

Bills weighing a total of 363 tons were loaded onto military aircraft in the largest cash shipments ever made by the Federal Reserve, said Rep. Henry Waxman, chairman of the House Committee on Oversight and Government reform.

On December 12, 2003, $1.5 billion was shipped to Iraq, initially "the largest pay out of U.S. currency in Fed history," according to an e-mail cited by committee members.
It was followed by more than $2.4 billion on June 22, 2004, and $1.6 billion three days later.

The special inspector general for Iraqi reconstruction, Stuart Bowen, said in a January 2005 report that $8.8 billion was unaccounted for after being given to the Iraqi ministries.


How much money are we going to allow to be stolen by the administration and it's "partners"? This money may have been diverted to buy the weapons that are killing our soldiers! How much is enough?
