Other - Politics & Government - May 2007

Last I heard Bush's approval ratings were about 28% and another survey of political awareness showed only 72% of American's knew the name of the vice-president.
What do you think of the link between the same percentage of American's not even knowing the name of the president also feeling Bush is doing a good job?

Now, with tax cuts, where would we find money to keep up caring for the wounded soldiers over the years and years? And where would we find the money to feed all the public school students with the healthier and more expensive nutritious school meals that parents demand? Guess more borrowing from foreign nations despite the accumulative interest rates on the heavy debt remaining unpaid?

We will definitely not travel like we have the last few summers! I have decided that this is the first practical way that our family can impact the usage of gas. We will stay much closer to home, use public transportation when we are in big cities and consider local air or long distance rail service. If all of us did this we could likely reduce consumption by a percentage that would make an impact. Of course, Congress or the President (yeah, that's likely) capping the price would certainly help -- except for the gas lines that would develope.

A search of news articles have essentially nothing linking the communist party, the socialist party and the democratic party. Yet a search of the blogosphere shows literally hundreds of articles with conclusive proof that the democratic party is run by the communists.

Why does the MSM not report on this? If the repubs ever joined up with anything extremist group (kkk, neo-nazis) it would be on the news on TV 24 hours a day, there would be demands for hearings and prosecutions and resignations, it would be non-stop.

Yet the communists takeover the Democratic Party and nothing is said. Why is that?

Do you believe the democrats in AMerica know about the democratic party and it being controlled by the communists?

Do you believe the democrats would bail if they knew the truth?
Why do the "dems" on Y!A get so nasty when you talk about the truth, that the dems are really communists, does the light of truth hurt them, what are they afraid of?

Bin Laden has stated that the reason he started his "Jihad" or "holy war" against the US was because of tens of 1000s of US troops residing on Saudi soil during the 1st Gulf war which ultimately led to his attack on the US on 9/11.

So was Ron Paul right?

Illegal aliens are not required to have insurance or a drivers license and when police pull them over and they can't speak English the cops just let them go. This is commonly accepted and we have talked directly to police who have admitted the fact that they are ordered to release illegal aliens. It's one law for American citizens and another for the precious illegals.

Illegal aliens can now cash checks, get credit cards and open bank accounts without a social security number or any other documentation besides an easily obtained card from the government of a different country, yet American citizens are shunned if they don't have all their papers in order. Organizations like Bank of America reward criminals for entering the country illegally and give them a clear incentive to stay.

Why are illegal aliens who have already broken the law and are criminals lavished and coddled by the government and large corporations, while American citizens - be they white, black, or hispanic, are pushed around, surveilled and lectured by Big Brother?

dont you adopt an illegal and pay for all their food, shelter, healthcare and whatever else their hearts desire!! Leave the government out of it and do a good thing for the illegals you so love. Take them on as your own and the government will get back to helping out Americans and legal citizens? Sounds like an idea? OH you all are not that compassionate right I almost forgot!!!!!!!!!!!

Why is it that so many things people don't believe and so they say "if it were true, it would be all over news!" ARE TRUE and AREN'T all over the news?

I mean can you really count on the media to bring you the news that Americans might want to know about?

Is the attitude that "if its important, it would be all over the news" an intelligent outlook to adopt???

My Question is why does America have an embargo on Cuba?
And I know the answer cannot be because Cuba is a Communist government, because we do major trading with China which is Communist.
