...stage for a 'police state" run by the United State?

GENEVA - Unrelenting violence and insecurity in Iraq could cause as many as 1 million Iraqis to flee their homes this year, the world's migration body said Friday.
"The numbers of people that are being displaced are increasing every day," said Jemini Pandayar of the International Organization for Migration. "The security situation is not improving. It's not changing."
Washington announced it will allow about 7,000 Iraqis into the United States this year — up from 202 in 2006 — and will pay more to help Iraq's neighbors cope with the surge of refugees.

And so, now we have created still another problem for millions of innocent people. By now we all know that Bush does not plan to leave Iraq anytime soon. It appears that by the time he leaves office, we'll be so deeply entranched in 'occupation" there will be no immediate way out..

Would you allow potentially thousands more refugees into the U.S.?

Gee, that makes a lot of sense. I'm sure Bush had nothing to do with this timely video showing up? Gee, no way did he have anything to do with that, right?

In concerns of an disaster relief program towards individuals in several states so that individuals are not left homeless and without medical attention and without food instead of the government only relying on the Fema program . although, individuals will have to pay certain monthly or possible yearly taxes in these states!!!!!!!!!!!

I will be unemployed with a week. I've talked to several people who are on unemployment, they've told me that the unemployment checks are no where near what my regular pay checks were.
My question is why not, i've been paying taxes for all these and now that I need help from my government this is the kind of help I get; a small check that won't even pay for gas for my car for the month. And I have to take taxes out my self. I have to pay tax on my tax. I wish MY government would help out more. Politicians don't have any worries; after they retire they get their regular salaries, what kind of crap is that while I'm getting screwed over by them. This may offend many people but guess what they're most likley still employed. It's not fun trying to find a job in a jobless state(Michigan).

If the government is now so green & environmental, why are they taxing people for using things they have promoted, such as Motorway widening and Airport runway extensions.

and where & what exactly is the money raised being spent on?

Chinese Communist government and its Peoples Liberation Army reportedly killed at least 1400 students and civilians for democracy during the PLA bloody crackdown in the Tiananmen Square in 1989. However, the exact number of the massacre is still unknown.

How many people were killed precisely? Why Cinese Communist Party is still hiding the facts? Deng Xiaoping said, "One million is a small number."

Please watch these videos of the Tianmen Square Massacre!

The production of Food and Medicine is under a direct threat if oil jumped due to Iranian or Iraqi or any other true threat to it's free flow throughout the worlds free markets. Cheap oil assures cheap prices and surpluses of food and Medicine which is the main Staple of survival for most of the worlds Poor. Alternative fuels are an option but would ensure the death of a Billion poor before it was an efficiant replacement. The wars civil, economisc and International would kill untold millions. Free market economies would be overthrown by starving masses a super war would ensue. The US and it's Allies are trying to be proactive and ensure stabilization. It is however not in the interest of many rogue nations and many politicos bent on the destruction of the west. make a mental list of how you would cope if oil was at $300 per barrel. Would you call for WAR then?

Seriously. Please, just for a moment consider "what if." Consider what if you are wrong and the other 71% of the USA that believes Bush is a HORRIBLE, EVIL person is right about him? What if there is some dark sinister force behind all the PHYSICAL EVIDENCE that says Bush is bad and that there is a secret society that is controlling every thing we eat, read, see, hear, do, etc?

What If?

America is aand is concerned with the Worlds FREE Market Economy. The free Flow of Commodities IS a premier Function to assure the Stability of these Free market economies. When a madman like Saddam controls TOO much of that commodity he can force prices to rise crushing the poor and creating instability in the countries of the world causing revolutions and civil wars. We As a Country with vast interest in keeping stability and Free Flow of world trade along with 30+ nations with similar concerns acting under the Authority of the UN took action. All war has been fought for Land or goods. This was and Is a Leagal war. Our Congress is making a great mistake today.

I heard ealier today that if a petition was signed by enough people, we could force a general election. Apparently the number of signatures needed is less than the amount of signatures on the road tax petition. Does anyone know any more about this?

We had a bunch of UN resolutions that forced the situation and we did not act Unilatterally. Our Jets were attacked in the UN mandated "No Fly Zone" We Know it was not because of 9/11 and WMDs was a SMALL part of the reason. Protection of the Kurds ( like when Clinton went to protect the Bosnians) was a large part of it as the UN tends to look down on ethnic Cleansing. So Please stop posting the BS that Iraq had nothing to do with 9/11 WE KNOW ALREADY!

George Galloway apparently mentioned it on his radio show the other night.

Is it because thousands of scots are moving south for a better standard of living, or are there other reasons?

If top officials in the Iranian Govt are approving attacks on US Soldiers in Iraq...WHY then WOULD THEY? It doesn't make any sense that Iran would risk war with the USA knowing we could BLOW THEM OFF THE MAP if we wanted. Why would they only kill a few of our soldiers in a random manner (roadside bombs) risking war with the SUPER POWERED US OF A?

The answer is simple; they wouldn't. You can bet your life that this Iranian's in Iraq bombing bull is cooked up BushCo, Inc. war mongering politics. The Iranians would be risking death on a massive scale to only kill very few of our soldiers in Iraq. Hell, our soldiers are not even on their soil. This Iran involvement stuff is a lie people.

That's my opinion. What's yours?
