BYGONE ARE THE DAYS WHEN PEOPLE CHOSE POLITICS TO SERVE A NATION. BUT POLITICS MEANS SERVICE TO NATION. TODAY'S POLITICIANS JUMP INTO THE FRAY NOT TO SERVE BUT TO MAKE MONEY. THE STUPIDEST PART IS THAT WE ELECT THEM. CAN'T WE HAVE A SYSTEM WHERE CERTAIN BASIC QUALIFICATIONS BE MADE MANDATORY TO ENTER POLITICS. BUT AGAIN, THESE DECISIONS NEED TO BE TAKEN BY THESE VERY POLITICIANS. WHERE DO WE AS PUBLIC STAND? I THINK THAT WE NEED TO REALLY PONDER ON THIS ISSUE. WE THINK THAT THE NEWER GENERATION OF POLITICIANS WILL BE DIFFERENT. BUT I DOUBT THEY ARE. WHAT CAN WE DO? ARE WE HELPLESS?

Does the fact that calling a spade a spade and being brutally honest is constantly being frowned apon in the UK , making people afraid to speak their mind and their opinions for fear of being racsist, homophobic etc. Is Political correctness the new form of Fascism developed to keep indigenous people of UK quiet while other nations , races get carte blanche treatment . I for one am proud to be British and all that it stands for . (No doubt some will take offence at this and report me , which will only prove my point lol)

Notice lately, Bush, Rumsfeld, Snow, etc STOPPED using the word "terrorists" and rephrased it? There is a reason for this.

As an independent candidate for attorney general in one of the 37 states in which the AG is elected, I'm up against majority-party candidates financed by wealthy corporations and their controlling shareholders. The election is November 7, and I have only 68 days to create one or more VIRAL marketing programs to have my candidacy and ideas communicated to the voting public. I don't have the financing to pay for newspaper, radio, television, cable, outdoor, direct-mail or other advertising. I need to have voters in my State, out of their major self interest in having me elected, communicate with others about my candidacy, and get these others to do the same. Please THINK OUT OF THE BOX. I (and you, as a voter or resident) need some creative thinking in how to overcome the odds of the stacked political deck. I plan to decentralize the awsome power of the Attorney General and appoint a little AG in each town and village, to enforce the rights of residents & small business at gov't expense.

Major corporations have bought elections and are taking away the rights of Americans. The cost for any one of us to go into court to enforce our RIGHTS has soared to $500,000 or more in many instances. Government rarely enforces your RIGHTS or mine. Instead, at our expense state and federal prosecutors enforce our DUTIES, often resulting in the wrongful taking of our life, liberty and property. Our country should be spending as much in enforcing the RIGHTS of Americans (such as the right to a job, the right to engage in business without illegal monopolies as competitors, the right to healthcare, the right to non-fraudulent elections, the right to non-gouging gas prices, for example) as governments spend in enforcing our DUTIES. The Office of the Attorney General in your state (if one of the 37 states in which the AG is elected) is more powerful than your Governor, if occupied by the right person. What can I do in my State to inform voters about my candidacy? I NEED YOUR IDEAS NOW!

Why was Bush voted back in power when he is so controversial. Tony as well. Would America or Britain lose anything if they change these leaders? Are there no better candidates. In most 3rd world countries leaders rule (and wreck) for life because of a poor democratic system. Is that what America and Britain, the so-called champions of democracy want?

i know by saying what i'm about to, i'm just as rediculous as everyone else who comes here to degradingly state their opinion, but i have to say it.
i'm a liberal myself, and i'm really tired of the comments toward people who feel the same why i do. "grow some b.al.l.s and learn to fight"? i wonder how many people who say that are willing to go into this war themselves? instead they bash people who want peace. or they agree with us for wanting it, then say we need to fight for it in war. does anyone really think about it? how often do you find an organized group of people who believe in this war, out in the public, showing support?? not often. but you'll always find people who don't want war out showing what it means to them. i'd say, if you want people to know how you feel, maybe you need to grow ba.ll.s. and show it instead of bashing us for doing what we do. we dont support terrorism, we just dont think you need a war to bring peace. a bit of an oxy moron isnt it?

The Democrats should thank bush for diverting the hurricane away from New Orleans. Will they demand that he acknowledge he is responsible for saving the Gulf Coast?

Let’s impeach the president for lying
And leading our country into war
Abusing all the power that we gave him
And shipping all our money out the door
He’s the man who hired all the criminals
The White House shadows who hide behind closed doors
And bend the facts to fit with their new stories
Of why we have to send our men to war
Let’s impeach the president for spying
On citizens inside their own homes
Breaking every law in the country
By tapping our computers and telephones
What if Al Qaeda blew up the levees
Would New Orleans have been safer that way
Sheltered by our government’s protection
Or was someone just not home that day?
Let’s impeach the president
For hijacking our religion and using it to get elected
Dividing our country into colors
And still leaving black (and poor) people neglected
Thank god he’s racking down on steroids
Since he sold his old baseball team
There’s lot of people looking at big trouble
But of course the President is clean.
THANK GOD

It never fails that when a Far Left Wing ACLU Adoring Liberal Democrat is confronted with a legitimate question they almost ALWAYS respond with, "personal character attacks", "name-calling"; they cite past wrong behavior by Republicans to justify equally wrong or worse behavior by Liberal Democrats?

Why?

Why are Far Left Wing ACLU Adoring Liberal Democrats complete and utter Partisan IDEOLOGS and think only in those terms, refusing to work together with "whatever group or individual"
is in power for the greater good of America?

Why is ALL their anger directed at George Bush instead of the common enemy that faces us all, Islamic Terror?

Why are Far Left Wing Liberal Democrats perceived as having NO different or better policy re: National Security or the War on Terror or the future of Irac except to Bash Bush 24-7 to the point where they never mention the beheadings and other atrocities occuring but are constantly all ablaze about ther Rights of terrorists being held by us
