Is it maybe Iran with their current nuclear programme, or Iraq, or Israel, or North Korea, or maybe even a bit closer to home?

It seems like the republicans’ voters are easily convinced by their leaders. And they seem to have blind faith that their leadership is looking out for their best intertest. The democratic voters seem to question ideas and the courses that the government wants to take.

My stepsister od'd on recreational drugs a few years back, and it was ruled an accident. I don't question that ruling, because she had a history of drug use, but are testimonies from friends or families taken into consideration, regarding the person's mental state or lifestyle?

Like in the Anna Nicole Smith case, how would they come up with it being an accidental death, rather than a suicide? Or how do they determine no one else could have either enticed her to take the drugs, or physically given them to her without her knowledge?

I know, the second part of that, it being a homicide, is pushing it. Suicide or accident, though?

I know what my beliefs are on the topic of gay marriage. I would like to know what you think about it.

If you are for it, say so and explain the reasoning.

If you are against, say so and explain the reasoning.

Are your reasons for either way based on morals, ethics, religion, politics, etc.? Please explain as much as possible. If you are neutral but understand reasons for both sides of the argument, feel free to answer as well.

I'm working on a paper for one of my classes and want to get current "data" if you will. Please, understand when you are answering and reading other people's responses that all are entitled to their beliefs and please respect that. Name calling and ridiculing someone else's response because they don't agree with your own is silly and immature.

I really appreciate your time with this. I'm also working with other topics and will be posting similar questions if you would like to answer them as well. Thanks!!

Obviously, they have a history of being very slippery with facts.
Do we need to change the oath they take as more and more are questioned? Tighten things up and give them less "wiggle room"?

wouldn't it make more sense for these women so concerned with their health NOT TO HAVE UNPROTECTED SEX and avoid an unwanted pregnancy (and whatever DISEASES they may contract)? I have no objections with terminating a pregnancy when the mother's life is at risk (as long as every attempt to save the child is made too.) But making this a 'health issue' is beyond reason to me.

I just watched CNN with Wolf Blizer (at 7:00 pm ET). Wolf (host) asked Dr. Helen Morrison, a self-claimed forensic psychiatrist, “Could school bullying turn Cho into such a mass killer?”

“No. Absolute not! School bullying cannot turn Cho into a mass killer.”
Wow! That is indeed a new analysis. I was really amazed by her assertiveness when she was saying it. So, school bullies, you can all go on with your bullying. American Dr. Helen Morrison just gave you a certification/ green light to keep bullying the week.

No other ethnic group goes to such extremes - in such high proportions - to hide and change their natural appearance to fit in with the stereotypes of other ethnic groups. Women say things like 'too hard to manage' 'looks better', 'men prefer it', etc., But isn't the idea that straight hair is better than natural hair, the most successful act of self-delusion ever perpetrated by black women and men, on an almost universal scale? Can we not love ourselves in our natural state the way God/Nature created us? Can anything beat the crowning glory, or turn as many heads, as a proud black woman with locs, Afro, crew cut, plaits or any other natural style you can imagine? Are we so lost?

The simple fact is that, for the first time in decades, the plurality of the American people associate themselves with the Republican party. Liberals in the country are losing clout not because they lack a clear vision, or the guts to “stand up” to the President, but because their policies of the last decade have been an abject failure. They hitched their wagon to political correctness, expansion of entitlements, and appeasement of lunatic regimes, all of which have proven to be nags in a political climate searching for thoroughbreds. Democrats have failed not because they moved too far to the right, but because they moved too far to the left. Emboldened by American guilt over the civil rights movement, Vietnam, and the excesses of the 1980’s, they pushed forth an increasingly left-wing agenda that was no longer a reflection of the will of the people, but a pseudo-socialist vision of benevolent government taking care of its constituents.
