When you read the platforms, they seem to be pretty much identical? When did the Democrat Party merge with the Socialists and why was it not mentioned in the media?

ANTI-WAR (Iraq) - Socialist Party USA They cynically expect that you will put your morals aside and let war crimes be committed in your name. They think you're scared and ignorant enough to go along with anti-Arab racism. They think you can be hoodwinked into giving up your Constitutional rights for the illusion of security. Prove them wrong. Join us in resisting the war. http://sp-usa.org/statements/20020921-iraq.html

Republicans and Democrats are all rich, yet the republicans live in fancy neighborhoods and send their kids to private schools, and make no bones about it... Democrats do the same, but tout bills to bring minorites that cause racial tension into middle class neighborhoods, Democrats are all about helping the poor, yet they don't have to live with them or send their kids to school with them. They push the poor on the middle class. They say they, try to help middle class, but all they do is cause trouble. They are hypocrates. At least the Republicans tell it like it is! Comments?

What; Oh What is it going to take for President Bush to realize that Democrats in Congress are not doing what they want to do but what WE ELECTED THEM TO DO!!!!!? In Nov. 06, a majority of Americans sent a VERY CLEAR message to Washington. So, What part of: We've had enough of this war don't Bush understand. Mr. Bush; Please STOP blaming the Democrats for doing the job we sent them there to do. If you want to blame someone; BLAME US, the voters!!!

The second amendment states that "A well regulated MILITIA being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the PEOPLE to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed."

Is this saying that only MILITIA are able to bear arms or the PEOPLE (any regular citizen) can? I'm confused because militia ARE citizens/the people....
Basically--according to this second amendment--who can keep and bear arms? The people or the militia?

In a recent Q she asked: "Is Camp Delta in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba an American Concentration Camp where POWs are tortured?" Follow up comments: "Camp Delta at Guantanamo Bay is an American concentration camp where "enemy combatants" have no justice and no humanity, they are tortured, live in appallaing conditions, in violation of the Geneva Convention. Look it up!" ROTFLOL! She offers no proof-just opinion. Do you think she's actually been there? Where does she come up with this stuff?

Who's butt has he crawled up hoping for a VP spot? He was really positioning himself last year for a top spot run but now--I've not heard much from the nut. I'm guessing he is sucking up to Hillary and Obama .......big time. Edwards, not so much. Edwards is far enough left he doesn't need another radical on his ticket. Hillary is my likely bet. I don't think she will move any further left than she has so she'll need a hefty lefty to 'balance her out' in the eyes of them Dem party. That's my guess......anyone else care to speculate?

I am somewhat confused.
My council tax bill states that my bill is from April 2007 until March 2008 and that I can pay monthly by installments over 10 months, ergo, PAYING IN ADVANCE FOR SERVICES NOT YET RECEIVED!!!!!!
If I fall behind with these payments, can I legally be prosecuted / have bailiffs banging on my door / go to prison for NOT paying for services I have not yet received??
How can I be in arrears for something I have not yet had ie, how can I be prosecuted this year for not paying for my February 2008 bin collection?
Is this a breach of my human rights?
Do you know of anything else that this applies to?

Though I think it is pretty useless to talk about Ahmaidinjad misquote with you. But with regard to the most of answers I have got from you saying Ahmaidnejad said Israel should be wiped off the map , I have say that this is not that what Ahhmadinejad said . What he did say was that this occupying regime of Jerusalem ( not the country but the regime) should be vanished of the pages of the time( nnot earth) , the interesting part is that Israeli government has wished for the annihilation of Islamic regime of Iran even before Ahmadinejad ‘ famous statement . I am not defending Ahmadinejad since so many of my people think he who has cheated in election is in fact a traitor that with his words are giving the American government enough reasons for justification of another war against Iran . I do not if this fact make any difference in your mind but yes Iran in middle east is getting stronger and the might threaten the position of American allies in Middle east . Besides , there are many Mullahs who do not give a damn to their people , they are ready to sacrifice anything for money . Some not . Iran government is complicated and for sure their enmity with Israel is more like a friendship to me . The make it really easy forI Israelis to have America attack Iran and they would both benefit from this war . You have been told that they are Islamic and that is the reason of the Mullahs enmity against countries like America but I as an Iranian know that is lie . They are the ones who banned us not to drink alcohol beverage ,yet they are their sellers and contributor . Police in Iran is easily get bribes if they caught several kid drinking and that is all about it , It is all about money . Every thing in Iran is possible from having sex and drinking , smoking best substances with just spending a little money . You do not nothing that most Iranians do not believe in god anymore and for them all of the bullshit west says about Islam and that they want to blow for the sake of their prophet is simply ridicules . I think your government and mine know how to play with us with the difference that we Iranians know we are getting played but you Americans so far away to realized this fact .
Now you can call me a liar or whatever but this is just my personal opinion
my question , Do you think this war against middle eastern countries is just another Crusade or it might have another reasons ?
By the way Iran is not match for America even with a nuclear bomb this is not the reason that American wants to attack Iran , bring me another reason that could convince me you Americans .Tell me why my country should be bombed

To you Bush Supporters: In case you are so gung ho to think Bush is a good moral man when he and Cheney are both involved in Oil businesses, think again! Add up the facts and see if it doesn't add up to Bush being selfish and uncaring toward Americans!

1. Bush/Cheney are both oil biz owners on the side along with their many many rich oil buddies. So why would he care to lower the price, logically speaking.

2. Yes, you Bush supporters kept saying he can't do anything about oil prices. Baloney! Oil prices are based on speculations so when Clinton threatened OPEC to use our own oil reserve, the price of the oil went down right away!

3. Bush never ever threatened the OPEC anything like that! Why? Cuz he's in the business? Duhhhh.

4. Bush lowered income taxes for the wealthy when we have such enormouse deficit due to IRAQ war and how are we paying for it??? Hmm comes back to spike in oil prices doesn't it. How convenient!
