I hear republicans all the time on YA! say Clinton was the worst president in the history of the USA.

So tell me, what did Clinton do, besides staining Monicas dress (which I will give you was mortifying, but at least not deadly), that makes him worse than Bush for lying to the USA, defying the UN to wage an illegal war?

Maybe I'm not getting something, but the American people want out, the Democrats want out, and even many member of the Republican party want out . Why won't Bush and his administration get us the heck out of that place? I'm sure there is alot more to the issue than what the media is telling us, but this is starting to get ridiculous.

It seems like they want to have no values whatsoever in the laws. They want almost all things to be legal or, not punishable. Drugs are ok, sexual deviances are ok, abortion is ok. It seems to me like they want to have people ruining their lives. Drugs are a problem for people, sexual assaults and molestations inflict lifelong scars on people and so does having an abortion. Why do they want to see these things available yet, they do not want to allow cigarette smoking or trans fat? Is there some kind of double standard that I don't see or understand?
Not to mention they continue to label people and segregate them instead of considering all people equal. In Illinois they are teaching children who speak Spanish, in Spanish, they are not teaching them how to speak English to keep them segregated from the rest of the population. Spanish speaking classrooms only, not integrating cultures instead, seperating them. I don't understand.

Or are you going to make up some kind of justification because you don't want to admit the reason you're not voting for him is that he's black?

Try and sell the "lack of experience" excuse to someone else. Look at the records of all of the other candidates. Giuliani was a mayor, Fred Thompson was a lobbyist and lazy Senator, Hillary has seven years as Senator under her belt, John Edwards has six as Senator.

Besides, look at someone like Cheney with decades of experience in Washington, would you vote for him?

When are people going to face the fact the 9/11 was just a conspiracy by our own government for an excuse to go to Iraq? There is no explanation for a lot of questionable things that went on that day, specifically with the President. Why were Saudi's supposedly on those planes and not Iraqi's or Iran or Syria? Why wern't planes launched to intercept the other planes that were off course. It's time to stop fooling yourselves and start asking questions that should be answered under oath by the Executive Branch (including Mr. Cheney, although he doesn't consider himself part of it). There were too many holes here. But I guess people don't like to question things anymore. They just accept what the media and the government tells them.

A Mexican Senate committee passed a measure Wednesday urging President Felipe Calderon to send a diplomatic note to the United States protesting the deportation of an illegal migrant who took refuge in a Chicago church for a year.

The committee also approved a scholarship to help her 8-year-old U.S.-born son, Saul, who is an American citizen and stayed in the United States.

Elvira Arellano, 32, became an activist and a national symbol for illegal immigrant parents by defying her deportation order and speaking out from her sanctuary in the Adalberto United Methodist Church. She announced last week that she was leaving to try to lobby U.S. lawmakers for immigration reform.

for their actions. This references politicians on both sides of the aisle. So when will the average American wake up and realize they are scamming us all and laughing at our bickering amongst each other, because when all is said and done, they have succeeded on putting us average Americans on the Titantic and they are nowhere to be found. while the politicians and corporate leaders have been working hand in hand all along, harvesting us working slobs, they have managed to have us sit here calling each other names about it.

I say we get together and realize who the enemy is here. What say you?

Is this right?

1. Bush and Cheney and Co. aren't incompetent because Clinton had an affair in the White House and therefore Bush is a great president. No matter what someone says about Bush ,just mention Clinton and his affair. That will end the argument, since Clinton's affair has everything to do with his job as president. Bonus points if you get in the phrase "cigar" or "dress".

2. Celebrities are hypocrites because they fly in jets and don't drive hybrids, therefore global warming isn't real and we don't need to reduce our consumption.

Can you give me some more?

I've read enough posts to ascertain that people hate GWB's proactive approach to terrorism...going after the terrorists and their cells wherever they may be housed on the planet...before they hit us again. I'd like to understand the benefits of a reactive approach, please explain...

I have heard of two different cases recently where a child was molested and one man got off because he did not have a interpeter and another case was for the man's guilty plea exchange for 5-yr probation. But, if someone is selling drugs that is a long-term sentence. What is wrong with this picture????

oh darn... that damn dyslexia again! Got those names and facts bass-ackwards, didn't I?

Clinton was the coward who fled our nation to evade military service that he wrote in his own words that he "loathed".

Mr. Bush flew US military jet interceptors. FACT.

I guess the question should be; has Clinton EVER renounced his treacherous, traitorous and seditious position?

After all these are the same neocons (eg: Dick Cheney, George W. Bush, Bill Kristol, Brit Hume, Fred Barnes, Rush Limbaugh, Paul Wolfowitz, Richard Perle, etc.) who proclaimed that US soldiers would be greeted as liberators, Saddam had WMDs, and that it would be a "cakewalk" to change the Iraqi government into a democracy.

Since the neocons got all of that wrong in regards to the invasion, why should we listen to their doom and gloom assessments on what will happen if we leave?

Gore distanced himself from Clinton. Kerry at least served in military although pro-Jane Fonda/anti-military later favoring many unethical and unsavory laws. Latest two "leaders", are anti-military with the most infamous lying about being turned down from enlistment as a military lawyer "because of glasses". The one making this one look centrist (who is actually Leftist) is an admitted apostate from Islam after going to their religious schools for many years, he became a Christian. His religion's followers kill people who disavow "the one true God, Allah" and become Christians.
Just stating the facts available online all over the internet.
