In your opinion, do you think that the government have the right to control drugs?

im unsure.

I think that in a way, we should have the rights to put whatever we want into our bodies.

But then legalisation of all drugs could cause disasterous consequences.

Let me know what you think.

We all know that there have been strategic mistakes along the way. Bush is a total idiot, and so is every person that is around him. So what can you expect?

But, in concept, do you think the War was a good idea? Here are some points to support this argument:

1) After we demolished Japan in WW2, we helped them rebuild, from the ground up, into a economically flourishing democracy. Could it be conceivable that the same thing would happen in Iraq?
2) Establishing a Democracy in the center of the middle east could have a positive influence on the neighboring countries of the region.

English 'pull own teeth' as dental service decays

Mon Oct 15, 7:19 AM ET



LONDON (AFP) - Falling numbers of state dentists in England has led to some people taking extreme measures, including extracting their own teeth, according to a new study released Monday.

Falling numbers of state dentists in England has led to some people taking extreme measures, including extracting their own teeth, according to a new study released Monday.

Others have used superglue to stick crowns back on, rather than stumping up for private treatment, said the study. One person spoke of carrying out 14 separate extractions on himself with pliers.

I just saw a news report where the Dems are raising campaign funds at a rate about 3 to 1 to Republican Candidates. Hillary is at 35 Million, Obama at about 32 Million. The closest Republican is Guiliani at 11 Million.

In the Spirit of being a good Socialist Dem, should they not share their good fortune with the Republican Candidates? This is completely not fair to the Repubs and this should be rectified immediately. Should we not tax the top fund raisers and redistribute those funds to the lower performing candidates? just a thought, be a good Socialist and tell me why this should not happen.

if companies nowadays no longer offer pension plans and most people do not know how to invest their 401k?

Even if you do invest, it doesn't always offer a high return.

You might say, "Well everyone needs to save their money". That is easier said then done with the high costs of living.

And Social Security will be dry by the time I will need it.

So those of you Con's who are against government "handouts," what are your plans to make ends meet when you are retired? Are you already wealthy and aren't worried about it? Do you plan on working until the day you die or will receiving government handouts then be okay?

People pulling their own teeth, gluing their own crowns back on.

This is a perfect example of what Hillary care will lead to.

According to the article, 78% of patients going to private (outside the UK's National Health Service system) dentists report that they are going to private dentists simply because they cannot find a NHS dentist.

Also, 45% of UK's dentists no longer accept NHS patients.

And 6% of patients in the survey pulled their own teeth, plus another 20% decided to just deal with the pain because of the problems in the NHS.

"A vote for Hillary is a vote for Hillary-care, because Hillary cares about you."

The motivation for the person standing for the British National Party in Dukinfield came from the hate filled Labour Councillor from the Dukinfield ward. This Councillor had a meeting with the God father of the yobs that attacked this candidates family.
So before you sad Liberals condemn this person for standing for the BNP, take a look at the conduct of this nasty Labour Councillor who is at the centre of a nasty campaign against this bnp man in the area of Dukinfield.

Why is he allowed to get away with using hundreds of id's to spread his vile BNP propaganda.

Is it because he has a lot of time on his hands as a failed MP?

Okay, I asked a question yesterday and got a little feedback and now I want to continue to look into it. I would like to know why people support Hillary Clinton. I'd like to hear maybe three policies that she has promised that you agree with. Now I don't want to hear because she's married to Bill or that she's a woman or any of the stuff I can tell with my eyes. I'd like to know the policies that you agree with her on. I don't want to debate you or anything like that, even if it is in my nature as a conservative. I just want to hear why you agree with her based on her policies. Thank you to all of you who write in.
