I was wondering whether Tony Blair has ever distributed free lapel pins to the citizens of the United Kingdom for their volunteer work, their acts of good citizenship or their virtue, dignity and honour that is their birthright (or in this case accident of birth).

If he ever does it, I would suggest that you use them to play Pin the Tail on the Donkey on his aarss.

William Jefferson Clinton, despite his very human weaknesses, was the finest Jew president the United States of America has ever had.

i don't understand it. bush haters are constantly whining about how "we're in iraq for oil and so the oil businessmen can make money" ... WELL ... YOU'RE AN OIL MONGER TOO IDIOT!!! getting oil from the mideast not only benefits the businessman BUT YOU TOO. IT PROVIDES THE ELECTRICITY FOR YOU USE YOUR COMPUTER TO TYPE POINTLESS ANTI-BUSH RANTS ON. IT PROVIDES THE GAS FOR YOU TO TAKE YOUR KIDS TO SOCCER PRACTICE. IT PROVIDES THE ENERGY YOU REQUIRE TO COOL YOUR HOMES, TO REFRIDGERATE YOUR FOOD.

do you see the hypocrisy in your "anti-war/anti-oil" stance?

"It's easy ... to say that we really have no interests in who lives in this or that valley in Bosnia, or who owns a strip of brushland in the Horn of Africa, or some piece of parched earth by the Jordan River. But the true measure of our interests lies not in how small or distant these places are, or in whether we have trouble pronouncing their names. The question we must ask is, what are the consequences to our security of letting conflicts fester and spread. We cannot, indeed, we should not, do everything or be everywhere. But where our values and our interests are at stake, and where we can make a difference, we must be prepared to do so."

Brazil is one of the world's leading producer of Ethanol, a corn or even sugar cane by product used in place of gasoline.Brazil produces plenty of it,but there is a 4 cents/gallon tarrif on it,because Iwoa produces corn Ethanol.

If we eliminate this tarrif,wouldnt it become easier to use this fuel
on a wide scale to replace gasoline?

Seems as if real hard news stories investigating fraud and outright theft of government money is lacking .
WE know about the big dig and its over runs and the 20 + year New York water pipe project that has cost billions .
What we do not see is all the special intrest backed politicians and programs they spin off creating billions in work for thier friends back home at tax payer expense .
MILLIONS given to produce reports by law firms and special intrest groups to promote projects in communitys around america .
PUBLIC funds used for civic arena's in 30 of the top cities in america with building contractors makeing millions and also running and operating the hotels and services after construction .
THE land bought for pennies is then sold to developers cheap who then profit tremendously while using tax payer money .
MILLIONS wasted on the katrina trailers that will be acutioned off for pennies on the dollar and resold for a huge profit by a select few .
WE need to expose this waste .

Seems like coverage of Iraq is positive except for some obvious theft and deception by some who failed to provide what they promised .
IS this liberal reporting by the media ?.IF you pay for something and do not get it then just forget it is the conservative way .(THEY WOULD SUE ME IF I DELIVERED A 13 INCH SCREEN T.V. INSTEAD OF THE 52 INCH ONE THEY ORDERED .).
The media was over-whelmingly in favor of Israel .
They are behind corporate america .
They slamed a few people publicly for fraud in the katrina relief effort .
I do not see a media that is liberal by any means .
I do not see alot of stories about wealthy men who regularly bank rupt a company and pay them selfs millions never to repay anyone but retire in luxsury
.
THEY have quit going after ministers who collect tens of millions and live like kings across america for over 15 years now .
IS it the media is liberal if it points out fraud and theft and those who do this . I guess if I were a thief I would discredit the media.

This can be outlets from the US and the UK. I know there has been a lot of talk saying that CNN, MSNBC, the BBC, the Guardian, The Washington Post, so on and so forth - are all anti-America.

I was hoping those of you who are aware of any, non biased media sources that call it like it is, maybe you could throw em up here for all to see?

Can't be Newsmax or Freerepublic-type blogs, nor Mediamatters or Bushflash.com. Nothing that was set up with an agenda, left or right.

I want to find the most honest newsource you all use! That way, if I am missing out on something, I can try to catch up! Thanks again!

I am a republican/conservative and i don't hate them or even dislike them. I just don't think that they should be allowed to get married under religous traditions but rather under another way. This other way is provided so that gay couples can still get tax reductions and such for being married.
