Even if you agree with Bush I think it is still pretty enlightening.

In this dream my daughter was talking to Bush about an exit plan for Iraq. She was showing him maps and such on how best to do this. At one point he told her, "But I will feel like a failure." She told him, "Sorry, but that is too bad. This has to be done and you must do it." Then she continued to show him the way to go about it, with the least amount of death, etc.

Even though she has heard us talk this seems a bit more than just us.

are we using it? If not, why not? Forgive my ignorance on this topic. I know nothing about the gasoline issues except that the prices are high. I am now trying to learn about it. Please help me.

Is it the oil that make the gas for our fuel? And does our land have oil? Are we using it for gasoline? why do we have to buy it from other countries? Do other countries buy it from us ever? Who is in charge of the oil and gas prices? Any info to all my questions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Whether he was or not I think it's amusing to hear him being accused of this by members of the U.S. Senate. Being truthful with the public certainly hasn 't been part of their job requirement...

Are liberals more like socialists or communists?

It seems to me they aren't in favor of our government or what it stands for.

If Mr. Al Gore was really concerned then why does he use on average $1200 a month for his electricity? Why does he fly every where he goes? I'm sorry I think that it is like Hillary when she says it takes a community. For Hillary, it takes a family, and to Gore it takes not just talking the talk, but walking the walk.

It occurs to me that people who were in their mid 20's in the latter 1960's in USA, are now about mid 60's and conservative as all get out. (Of course it is easy to be in favor of a war when you are not the one going to get shot, but that is another question). How did the hippies of the 1960's become the hardcore conservatives of the 2000's?

Almost 3,000 Americans died that day because of a sensless and murderous ideology. Why would any presidential candidate essentially ignore this tragedy? Will you vote for someone who doesn't even have the decency to at least mention it?

Remember the Live 8 concerts of 2 years ago? Remember the leaders of 8 countries promised to cut the debt of countries in Africa and other such promises designed to get them out of poverty?

Did they keep their promises? Has it done any good?

Why is Israel allowed to take part in the Eurovision song contest, and the European football championships? Do the organisers not know geography, or would exclusion be termed anti-semitism?

Truthfully, you must be CRAZY if you do! I'll tell you why....Hillary is like my mother, now would you send your mother out to war? This is a BIG war this country is involved in, despite how it may seem, looks can be decieving! Its gonna' be 2008, and the rest of the world LITERALLY still view women as the lesser power. To me, they are EQUAL! And if a hair on her head get as much as frizzed, because the men she will have to deal with, trust my word, the U.S. will be vacated, and everyone back to thier respected countries, and prepare for the END. See, the majority of the world is still stuck in the past, and were so far beyond that, EverBeyond, but still a part, its gonna' take basically A Military Commander Like person to restore order, and Im all for Mom to lead...But not now, wait till the world is a little more friendly. If she becomes president, the global polarity will be in shock, and the balance of forces Feminine to Masculine will collide, on all levels, not just with people.

Is that why he so, apparently, farcically bungles, with apparent criminal incompetence, any and all issues of immigration to drive membership and support up massively?

I refer to my previous question about John Reid's department supplying a known terrorist with 9 passports and acknowledging supplying 10,000 to fraudulent applicants.

How very clever- perhaps as he believes, like BNP supporters, that the UK requires tough immigration laws to protects it's indigenous inhabitants' rights first and foremost?
Not to mention native insdustry, job protection, conservation, small business, agriculture and the environment.

And all the while I thought him an atypical Socialist buffoon.

from:
http://www.telegraphindia.com/1070321/asp/nation/story_7545712.asp
"London, March 20 (PTI): Dhiren Barot, an Indian-origin man who plotted to use a radioactive “dirty bomb” here, was issued nine British passports, home secretary John Reid admitted today.
Seven of these were issued in his own name.
Thirty-four-year-old Barot from Kingsbury, north-west London, was convicted last year of conspiring to murder civilians in the city by blowing up gas cylinders and detonating a dirty bomb.
He is now serving a 40-year sentence.
The home office was recently forced to admit that up to 10,000 people had managed to obtain British passports by deception last year."

What possible excuse can there be for John Reid's criminal incompetence this time?

Or is John Read cunningly assisting the BNP membership as he believes, like BNP supporters, that the UK requires tough immigration laws to protects it's inhabitants rights first and foremost?

My question pertained to whether slavery was to blame for the number of police complaints by black offenders to have been substianted only 8 times out of 713- 1.13% substantiated.
from the Government statistics found here:
http://www.blink.org.uk/subcat.asp?key=199&grp=55

Furthermore, black activist Ken Barnes stated that, "..."This even affects the way black people today perceive themselves. Ask people what it is to be black. Black is associated with rap music, with being lazy and uninterested in society. These are traceable back to the racism of slavery." from below.
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/6456765.stm

Therefore, the question was to generate debate on whether slavery can be a justifiable reason for lying to the police.
What are your views?
