their benchmarks?

why is that?
With no predetermined penalities or promises of reaction from The U.S. what motivation does the IRAQI government truly have to solve their own problems?

Additional Details

Look at every interview every republican has ever done, and when asked what if IRAQ doesnt meet the latest benchmarks....absolutely not one republican will give an answer.

Inmstead they say, lets just give this latest plan a try. Then thy change the subject.

Our troops deserve better then politicians who wil only pass the buck

ANSWER WITH ONLY ACTIONS OR IDEAS FOR NOT REACHING BENCHMARKS. Thats the question, answer it if you can, when no other republican politician will?

New info shows that England south of a line from the Wash to the Isle of Wight subsidises the rest of the UK to the tune of an average of £ 1,000 per head. North East England gets a subsidy of £ 2,591 per head, followed by Yorkshire and NW England. Obviously the Scots and Welsh receive massive subsidies.

I guess the population of this new Kingdom would be around 30 million and it would be by far the wealthiest major country in the EU. Without the drag of the poorer areas of the UK the new Kingdom could lower taxes and forge ahead still further. The Conservatives would have a natural majority.

In my opinion, he is the one most responsible for the Katrina aftermath. He left the city in the middle of a crisis and complained that the feds didn't get there quick enough, while his own local gov't had no plan and offered no help to their own people. And now, billions of aid from charities and the fed gov't has been lost or severly mismanged. Why is he still so popular? Am I missing some good things that he has done?

Why is it when you ask an American what makes the USA so great their main answer is that you can blow the world up if you want?

I was raised in a family of Kennedy Democrats who became disgusted with the Democratic party during the Carter years. I don't remember (or perhaps I wasn't interested in) too many political discussions. When attended college in the 80's, I went to a Ronal Reagan re-election rally, and became a Registered Republican. I also did not care for some of the politics that the peofessors were preaching. Many-not all--of my extended family are Democrats, so needless to say, we don't talk much about politics.

How about you?

The problem with our "freedom of Speech and Our Due Process of Law is that Al Jizeera Broadcasts it here with a great anti American Spin. We are not allowed to shoot unless shot at. The Insurgents ( we know because they look different than the Locals) come up to the gates with no weapons armed with news papers and faxes, they Scream at us "you go Home!', "Your Congress does not support you , go home". Then they go back and fire a few rounds in our direction.
The danger is real and now they scare the Locals that support us saying " when they go home we will cut your throats" Now the People that smiled at us and offered us prayers walk away. A lot of kids would always come by as we hand out a lot of toys. Now we are being told that when we leave any child with an American toy will be butchered! the toys we gave to smiling children a few weeks ago are ending up thrown out on the streets. Pelosi and gang are creating a mini terror on their own!

Should i go and work in india with the poor as up to 450,000 children are blind through lack of diet and teach suburban and rural farming.The plants some classfy as weeds have large amounts of viatmins to help combat blindness.I have allways been taught that you can create something from the little things that society say that are worth nothing into anything .A rock in some peoples eyes is rock inthe right hands it becomes anything and everything .1 million people lived in a city all had planter boxes and had herbs that helped combat blindness growing in the planter box it would amount to 100million plants.Its to teach everyone that playing there part no matter there social status that poverty can be wiped out with common sense .The rocket herb and other herbs grow with no help in many climates and produce millions of seeds .Plants that are fast growing high in vitamins and produce seeds can make a diffence.Teach india the past of village metallity.The village is better than the city.

I am concerned that certain celebrities (not all) use their popularity to sway voters opinions on critical potentially devistating topics.

Do you feel this could imapct your vote, just because you like the celebrity?

Personally my favorite actor could be sitting in my living room and I would listen but I do research on all the agendas and people who are on the ballet.

I go to that governments website and read the full explanation of what I am voting for. And if its people I am voting for I look up everything I can on them, what positive things they have done in the past, experience they have, etc.
No one, and I mean NO ONE, no celebrity, no bias news agency, not even my parents, are going to make my mind up for me. Be informed and make sure your voting for what you think is best for the country and world.

Agree or disagree?

Basically, the conservative mind thinks that a social program it doesn't like is socialism.

But never a complaint about corporate welfare.
