How do you feel about the Youth of America? Allow we to clarify something, I AM NOT making a generalization about teenagers. I UNDERSTAND AND ACKNOWLEDGE that a good amout of them are mature and responsible. I pray to God that those are the ones who will be running the country in twenty years.

I know what most of the responses will be: "Live life! Do what you want! Remember the 70s?"

However, I am touching upon drugs, the media, and sex. Girls having sex before 15 years old and smoking while doing it!

I understand the media is to blame mainly. The parents finish in a close second, however.

The main question is: How do we fix this?

Thanks in advance to all who answer my question respectfully, and a happy 2008!

Liberal System
Republicans are not eligible for this system. ALL crimes perpetuated against all non-republicans will be tried under this system using liberal judges that will give the offenders understanding and compassion. For instance if someone murders someone, the alleged suspect will be tried under this system. That way liberals will ensure that the alleged person isn’t deprived of their rights and doesn’t have to go to prison, violating their right of freedom. If the alleged person is found guilty of murder, they will be told how disappointed they have made everyone, pointed out how their behavior is unacceptable and finally freed. After all, the gun is really the guilty party and it MUST be melted down so that it won’t kill again. Rapists or child molesters, can use the defense that their childhood caused their bad behavior. After all, liberals demand liberal judges who are compassionate.

Republicans get to use a conservative court system.

I feel that law like "Violence Against Women Act" is very sexist. It basically say that women is the only victim of violent. What can we do to get rid of such law?

...base in order to have global psychological/political profiles on the people to turn over to the White House, etc.(which Yahoo has already done with our search information)? After all, they can no doubt trace our profiles to our homes and that will give them even more specifics into the minds of the people. Isn't this an invaluable tool to have in order to shape political propaganda and tell the people exactly what they want to hear in order quell the masses and get them to vote accordingly?

I recently learned that our profligate spending habits have resulted to this. Foreign reserves of U.S. dollars amount to approximately 14-17 trillion dollars. That is enough dough to buy every American company, and to have change left over! I'll have that Johnny Walker black, now, and make it straight up!Happy New Year's everyone!!!!!!!!!

#1: During this time of "war" against the terrorists, do you think it is wrong of the Govt. to "spy" on telephone calls in an attempt to obtain information???

#2: Do you realize that in case a domestic drug deal was made on one of those spied on calls, it wouldn't be admissable evidence, due the nature in which it was obtained?

#3: If you want to end terrorism, and you are a law abiding citizen, how do you justify your opposition to this metod of obtaining information?

I am not trying to envoke typo warfare here...I am a conservative, but I am curious as to the liberal's real motivation of the opposition to this....

For any of you who have seen this news from California, doesnt it seem a bit suspicious that Senate President Pro Tem Don Perata, whom has been pushing for gun control, got Carjacked in Oakland. He was stopped at an intersection in the middle of the afternoon, allegedly waiting for a red light.
A man tapped on the window with a gun, and he got out and let him take the Car. So two days later when the police recover the car, it hasn't been stripped. The 22" rims are still attached, Car is intact, and all his belongings...including the cell phone, are all still inside.

Legitimate carjacking? Or Media Publicity stunt to legitimize gun control?

Which is, who has rule & control over so-called "our money?" Why don't you understand this should be in the hands of the legal citizen majority with shared equal access! Instead of the Fascist Few explioting everyone in every possible way!!! Can you NOT think of what is in the best interest for all legal citizens of USA? Are you so far gone with "Brainwash mentality of chasing a carrot on a stick you can't find logical reasoning! i.e. " well i had to do it this way so it should be fine for everyone else!"

the rolling stones' song "jumping jack flash", seems to me to be referring to the turbulence between ireland and the crown. a "jumping jack" was also a nickname given to a "bouncing betty", an anti-personel mine.(m14-m16). also a "bouncing betty" was a nickname also given to a certain grenade round fired from a grenade launcher. grenade launchers can be used to fire tear gas cannisters for riot control. also the lyrics(maybe)refer to the queen, or the crown, as a toothless bearded hag. have a listen or look up lyrics and then see what you think. i know that the band itself says the lyrics were just words strung together, but then, someone like mick jagger who i think was knighted, wouldn't exactly say publicly that they supported the irish movement would they?

I heard on CNN the other day that the "U.S. was committed to free and fair elections in Afganistan."
In my view that is like saying the I am committed to making sure that my neighbor attends all of his children's school functions, or that he always treats his wife in a way that I feel is appropriate.
While I understand and agree fully that we should TRY to maintain amicable working relationships with other countries in our global neighborhood, I am furious with the way the U.S. ALWAYS has to butt in and try to influence EVERYTHING, EVERYWHERE!
I am against terrorism, but NOT at the expense of the elimination of our constitutionaly recognized and garanteed rights!
I am for protecting and assisting our allies, but not at the cost of robbing our own citizens and avoiding the badly needed reversal of unconstitutional activities of the U.S. government.
I can understand the UN acting this way, it is an intrusive organization, not a sovereign entity.
What are your thoughts?

I'd like them to know I stand behind the Founding Fathers of the United States of America.

Though they may not have been perfect, they are human so they cannot be, they were wanted for treason.

Some were killed, some died poor, all knew they could be killed for their behavior.

Now that is a hero.

Without these progressive treasonous people, America would not have even had a chance to be created.

I would say there are alot of people in politics have and will continue to, most not being held accountable.

We the people are the ones who elect the people who are in positions of our government, it is our "job" to remove them when they displease us.
