"Ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country".Did you think it was funny during the debate it seemed as if they where trying to see who could give the most "free" stuff?

to me its pretty simple.....we have immensely powerful weapon, nukes, that we don't want other radical countries to have....if talks and sanctions go nowhere....why not just bomb them before they get the nukes?
comments to hippies:
yes, i know other countries like russia, china, india have nukes too but they also have something to lose (which is their country, economy, population etc)....iran on the other hand is radical and controlled not by a system but rather few radical leaders who can do any thing to black mail other countries if they have nukes.
i am not too concerned about Iran using the nukes (if they acquire it) but just the idea of Iran threating Israel, Iraq and other countries to get what they want.
its pretty simple....like the game of poker....if the losing person has few chips, he/she wouldn't hesitate to go 'all in' compared to a person who is on the top of the board.
why let iran have the bomb...lets bomb it before we worsen the situation by electing hippies for 09.

They already have their own government and lifestyle just not the official name. If they are independent from China by name, I believe they will be a pretty major world power and people around the world will actually know what country Taiwan is! What do you guys think?

Las Vegas
go to CNN and you can download the debate. If you have comments ?
But really if there was a LEGAL stand, legs on this to Impeach
Cheney & Bush bring it on! Clinton was STUPID enough to lie to a nation. DO your research.
Q- How do you feel about the debate? Does how they speak here affect your vote? Thank you.

DEUTSCH: You said -- your exact words were, "Jews need to be perfected." Those are the words out of your mouth.
COULTER: No, I'm saying that's what a Christian is.
DEUTSCH: But that's what you said -- don't you see how hateful, how anti-Semitic --
COULTER: No!
DEUTSCH: How do you not see? You're an educated woman. How do you not see that?
COULTER: That isn't hateful at all.

I listen to these candidates say Universal Health Care...Yeah...I listen to persons in Nevada who are fighting over water rights because of drought. They are aware of the problems in farming because of climate change. I have candidates who are beating Iraq to death with promises.... and so.... what about energy ... Nevada wants to build coal minds yet some say solar energy as they fight over water and the realization that jobs need to be sacrificed in order to restructure and adapt to the changes for survival. I have not heard one candidate even suggest we need to evaluate and reconstruct farm land maybe even change where we grow food. Who will do this work? Immigrants? The ones the government ignores and hopes will go back to where they belong or put in jail. What about Freedom Corp? Can they assist in training and identification of illegals so as they can be an asset to growing food to benefit everyone? Anyone hear about a candidate and any government programs that will assist ?

Hillary Clinton kept saying she has experience. The irony is that she never says what kind of experience she has. If you happen to attend a democratic debate, can you ask her to explain to the American people what kind of experience she is talking about? What kind of experience does she realy have? Being a first or being senator without getting anything done?

I felt some should know, as he was a standard some of us tried to copy.
His answers were always thoughtful and thought provoking. He will be missed.
I will post this each day for the next several days so all are informed.

Rest in Peace, C.

This is the most evil guy that the Republicans are going to find. Wrong on every issue. Heartless. Souless. Not a shred of human decency. And real dumb to boot! I can't for the life of me figure out why the Republicans haven't already fallen in line behind this guy. He's the CLEAR successor to Shrub...

Let's say for argument's sake that man made global warming is fact. It's coming if we continue our evil capitalist ways.

To prevent it will cost trillions. Is it worth it?

I mean if we are spending trillions to prevent it, wouldn't those trillions be better spent on things like making sure poor countries have clean water, advanced farming techniques, information technology, good sanitation and medical care and more reliable energy?

Seems to me a whole lot more people would benefit in the long run, and also as those nations become more prosperous, each would be able to deal with the effects of global warming easier.

Maybe the best solution is not to grind our economies to a halt, but to invest the money into making more of the world prosperous and better able to take care of themselves for any eventuality.

I'm a 16 year old male that work's at Taco John's. I live in Wisconsin and attend high school as a junior. My current graduation date is 2009. I have been employed at Taco John's for about 3 and a half months. I average about 40 hours every 2 weeks. The pay period is also every two weeks. I am currently getting paid only $6.10 per hour. It's a little bit harder because it is also 20 miles away, but whatever.

I'm just a little curious as to whether or not I'm getting ripped off with how much they're paying me. I'm not even completely sure what the minimum wage is in Wisconsin. I've told several people how much I'm getting paid, and they've all said that I should check into it. They don't think I'm getting paid right.

So I'm asking if someone could do a little bit of research and shed some light on this situation. Am I getting ripped off, or is this normal for a 16 year old?

The evidence is so far from that notion. The majority of the founding fathers were diest and there is numerous evidence to support that. They were very concerned with no government sponsored religion, and although they came from Christian backgrounds and principles, there intent was to keep America from mixing government and religion.

I'm going to tell you who didn't. Our great ally Israel. In fact, here is what then leader of Israel had to say about the attacks on 9/11:

"It's very good. Well, not very good, but it will generate immediate sympathy [for Israel].''

Benjamin Netanyahu, former prime minister of Israel

So, which country was it?
