Reid denied the Republicans any chance at amending the resolution denouncing the troop build up, but then accused the GOP of being obstructionists for not voting for the blantantly partisan legislation.

Is he truly that delusional or is he just off his meds?

As an australian i am sick of the american culture slowly slithering onto australian shores infecting the people and country with graffiti gang mentality and watch america murder on tv which gives people the wrong train of thought .Australia is a place for the family a place that gives people the train of thought to be happy and prosper and i do not get this same feeling from america.Because of outside interfearance the australian culture needs to be reinsured into the australian population as american TV shows in my opinion is wrecking australia and the australia government should ban certain media outlets from allowing the rubbish that comes from america ? Australia was born from an educated european nation england .Priminster John Howard has the right to comment about OBama which reminds me of Osama--- bin laden every time people mention Obama ?pulling troops out of iraq will only strengthen the thought that murder is just ,do americans believe in freedom and liberty?

Global warming in this country is largely the fault of the north east and they are freezing right now whereas in Washinton state we are having georgeous weather in the 60's mid feb. I left my car on all night just to add that little bit of CO2 to the atmosphere.

I have some friends that think that if we leave Iraq and Afganistan right now that it will stop future terrorist attacks.
When I asked why, they said it would show that we want a peaceful end to things.

Considering the following attacks, along with the September 11th attacks that killed 3,000 -
I'm wondering how many people really, and truly think that if we leave, that it will all stop?

I'm not trying to start an argument, I just really am interested in knowing how many people think it will end, and why?

In 1983, the suicide attack on the Marine barracks in Beirut killed 241 American soldiers
In 1993 the first World Trade Center bombing killed 6 and injured over a thousand
The Khobar Towers bombing in Saudi Arabia killed 20 people
The Kenya embassy bombing killed 213 people and injured 5,000
The Tanzania embassy bombing killed 11 people
The USS Cole bombing killed 17 people

Take those into account, along with the 9/11 attack when considering your answer.
Thanks

Will these morons actually get anything DONE or will it be back to the future with lots of smoke and mirrors but little being accomplished except for somewhat higher taxes, growing bureaucracies, handouts to teachers' unions, trial lawyers, and enviros and all the rest we've seen before?

What about war, health care, immigration, the coming entitlement / baby boomer collision, global warming, and all the rest. Knowing these losers have no moral courage can we expect them to even address these issues head-on so the country can move forward instead of continually staying stuck in the same place?

"Answers" with nothing but raving about how terrible the opponents of Little Nancy and Ho-Hum Harry are WILL BE REPORTED so, if you've nothing to say, keep it to yourself!

I knew they would lose the war on terror just like they lost Nam. I guess we might as well go buy our turbans and burkas.

Can some liberal nut explain the point of the non-binding resolution? If you seriously believe the war is wrong why not debate funding, etc.? You want points politically for going against Bush, but you don't have the balls to stand for something and take that heat from the American people! Thank you for giving aid and comfort to the enemy and showing our troops how supportive you really are.

in 03 she was a pro-war hawk, then she was on the fence, last week she was the anti-war candidate that said she would bring the troops home ASAP if she won in 08, then she purposely misses the non-binding resolution on the war, so what exactly is going to be her position on this thing for the election? is she really confused, or is just unsure of her position because she is unsure of what the result of the war will be?

Will the unprecedented rise of anti-Americanism in the United Kingdom lead to a new, “special relationship,” between the United States and Australia? Will America and The UK part ways and gravitate toward new allies?

It seems we are moving in that direction.

And if given the chance again like she did at the "Hanoi Hilton" would she betray US soldiers causing them to be tortured? I'm just curious if she has ever apologized to the US soldiers she caused to be tortured by exposing the notes the soldiers tried to slip to her so their families would know they were alive. Just in case we end up with any soldiers captured and held alive so we know not to let her visit.

OK, we brought you the statue of Liberty and French fries, but is that enough a reason to worship our country and people? I live partly in the US, and I feel sometimes embarrassed to see the amazement on the face of people when I tell them: "I'm French".

Prime example of course is Nancy Pelosi who wants severely high tax rates on the actual working americans so she can further support wasteful social spending,yet I notice she wasn't trying so hard to give of her millions as she made them. She wants severe restrictions on the use of Fossil Fuels but was she pushing for those restrictions as she made millions off of stock in oil companies. She wants to push for increase in minimum wage ( God Help me I Agree With Her on That One) but doesn't want to increase it in American controlled Somoa which helps Tuna companies that just happen to be headquartered in her district. Does this woman ever follow the rules she wants for all of us? Thinki about that the next time she flies around in a private jet getting 30 gallons to the mile while she demands we drive around in cars so small as to insure the death of our whole family in the event of a major collision.
