You can also think of this on a smaller scale -> if you had just been through or was still going through a catastrophe, what would you do?..your plan of action...

My dad is a flame spitting Republican. I do care about him but if I really let the truth out he would probably call hellfire down on me for my views. There are a few others in my family like him. They rant to all the kids and grandchildren about how bad things are and how liberals are ruining the country etc etc. Talking to them you might think the soviet union still exists and there were tanks sitting in Berlin.

In my family I can safely say that most of the younger generations have become disenchanted with the older folks who seem to be lost in some sort of time warp. Some hippies never let the sixties and the same is true for their polar opposites.

My question is in your family how many people are considered one of those 'evil liberals'? Who is spitting fire duck taping their windows for chemical imminent attacks while Rush Limbaugh thunders and Fox news flashes its colorful fear factors to the nation?

I get the sense that Cuba, Iran and Middle East are anti-American.

What about the other countries?

Article 6 of the United States Constitution states that religious affiliation may not be used as a test (qualification) for any public office.

Does McCain's claim that being a Christian should be a qualification for being president show he has the same contempt for the Constitution as Bush?

And what sort of "Christian" does he consider qualified? Ted Haggard? Senator Vitter? Or maybe Mark Foley?

Why is that? Shouldn't the Americans be afraid of USA since USA is cruel enough to use it against another country in the past? Is there something wrong with this picture? Only one country we should all be afraid of is USA cuz the history doesn't lie. So is this a Hypocrisy?

Americans think the other countries have crazy people for leaders but history has shown that only the United States has ever used a nuclear device on another. Hypocrites!

I just read this article http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20070930/ap_on_re_as/taiwan_politics
I am confused by the statement that we are obligated by law yet we condemn the constant pushes from Taiwan to declare independence. Why not change our policy and stay the hell out of it? Otherwise risk a conflict with a country with a billion people dedicated to the the idea that they are the future rulers of the world. This is a tough one. I mean, after living on the mainland for quite sometime I get this ever growing feeling that the people are just itching for an excuse to prove their ever growing military. Any thoughts???

Seriously? Whats the difference to you?

95% of Americans are happy with the level of care they get in the country. - and the millions of your citizens who fly to America every year to have surgery or get treatment of some sort appear to happy with it as well.

60% are happy with their "health plan". Which is to say that only 40% of Americans dont like what they have to pay but are still fully satisfied with the level of care.

While our system needs some tweeking, it is still the best in the world. No country comes close. But again, who cares. What we do over here has no impact on you people. Except when you consider all of the state-of-the-art medical equipment the American system has provided to the world.

You know: X Rays, MRI's, CAT Scans, telescopic surgery, etc.

Our "greedy" system was able to invent these things because our system works. Without us you wouldnt have any of this stuff. So instead of bashing our system - which to most Americans looks like nothing more

Please, no partisan bickering, I am really of two minds on this issue. On the one hand, if the wrong person is convicted and killed that is a serious problem, on the other, I really don't think my tax dollars should go to keeping a prolific serial killer alive for the next 40 years of his life.

Also to consider: the "cruel and unusual" punishment clause of the Constitution, one must also consider the circumstances under which the Founders created the law.

Finally, if allowed, in what manner should the death penalty be carried out?

I pay well over £1500 a year council tax towards a few things that I never need, one is the public library, since the invention of "The Internet" I have a library in my own home. Therefore the Library has no further use to me.

I realise some people do not have the internet and use the library for reading fiction etc (OAP's) but then in the next few years they will all have to buy a digital TV whether they like it or not so why not make it compulsory that those NEEDING the library should invest in a small PC and maybe they will learn something instead of reading Mills & Boon till the grim reaper comes along.
