Politics - 31 August 2006

Just having viewed a clip of the broadcast in relation to this question, i couldn't help but wonder, how such crap is being fed to the American Public.

'Yes, let’s do a war with Iran! But only if the US Fox News staff is in the first wave of the invasion forces, cleaning minefields by hand, with a toothpick as only tool.'

I guess Bush is a child of God. So, anyone who says anything against him is automatically thrown into a lake of fire.

Have you seen this question?
Is this really how conservatives think?

lead to their downfall? If you look at most energy producing companies, they are led and supported by the right of the republican party. If global warming is indeed the biggest threat to our exsistence on earth ( 20/20 said so last night) major cutbacks would be forced on these companies, and a new energy source ( hydrogen, solar energy) would take over. This energy source would be cheap as sirt and work well, so everyone would use it, leading to bankruptcy and closures of the old energy companies, hurting the right wing base. Do you think they are holding back becasuse t's their own little fight for survival in the world of business and politics

I think it is adequately done.
Red (Republican): represents anger, justice, and power
Blue (Democrat): represents serenity, peace, courage
Green (Independant/Moderate): represents intelligence

Anyone else agree?

The leftist and anti Amercian president of Venezuela has been on a campain promoting the hate and destruction of the United States around the globe and is standing tall with Cuba, Syria, Iran, North Korea, etc. Back in the 50's he be dead already, why do we let these ******* continue to threaten our country and interests around the world, this is another oil rich country lead by another fanatic and hater of freedom, if it was not for the U.S. tecnologies these countries would not even know how to extract oil in the first place. Should this guy be taken out the picture?

We get no accountability from the people who spend our money.
Ted Stevens, the most senior Republican in the Senate, don't want you to see the wasteful mess that he and his party have made of the federal budget.
From Iraq to our own Gulf Coast, dollars that could be saving lives are being held up, misspent, or wasted. Troops don't have the body armor they need, small businesses in New Orleans haven't received support, and across the country 45 million people go without health insurance.
Republicans have created the most expensive government in history through their corruption and out-of-control spending, but at the same time they've either refused or failed to meet the challenges of governing, like adequately preparing for disasters like Hurricane Katrina.
We've seen the damage that Republican secrets and lies can do to our country, and enough is enough, right?

I would NEVER look down on a soldier for refusing to fight for Iraq. In fact, I'd call him a hero.

Anyone who refuses to go to Iraq is more loyal to the values of our country than all the republicans I know.

It seems more like the yahoo message boards with stupid people posting really stupid hateful posts. Would it not be nice to have a reasoned question, one that you could intellectually debate?

If Hillary comes out in support of the war to try and get the moderates to vote for and to look strong on defense do you think the left wing wacos like Al Gore & John Kerry will turn on like they did to Joesph Lieberman?

A person posted a question about this story, what surprised me was that most people said that he got what he deserved for molesting a child. I've read the whole story and I haven't found anything that says that the supposed child molester indeed molested the child in question, only the childs testemony. The father of the child acted on anger and killed the man, but besided what the girl told her mom, no other evidence was found to suggest or pin the man with molesting the child, so why would people assume he did and say things like he got what he deserved. He wasn't a registered sex offender and didn't have anything connecting him with sex crimes against minors on his record besides a DUI, no evidence was presented to support the childs allegations, so how did he get what he deserved?

Enron, Cisco, etc. One could make a connection that the over-inflated stock market, scandelous companies were part of the "oh so great" economy under Clinton. If many major co.'s stocks are over valued, they were probably hiring more people, therefore indicating a lower unemployment rate as well as driving up the stock market. All fabricated & unrealistic & so like Democrats!! Wouldn't you rather live in a moderate economy than one that's a bubble that iminantly has to burst!!

Were's the Chinese council so we can start adopting communism into our way of life? Or the French council so we can become a Republic? Do we not already have a Democratic country which has councilors voted into Parliment by the people who live here? Im just being sceptical - and also bemused!.

I never had the full scope of what a liberal was/is until I came to this website. You conservatives are probably undercover libs. But you act as though politics is the same as sports: STICK WITH YOUR TEAM no matter what.

So do you realize that our foreign policy has been dictated by oil for the last god knows how many years? We negotiated with the taliban to build an oil pipeline through their country and when that fell through we went to war with them. Saudi Arabia is running out of oil!! Iraqs oil fields are largely untapped and we need them. Saddam Hussein was working on getting his sanctions lifted before we invaded, he would have sold oil rights to Russia, China and France! All countries that opposed the war.This would have crippled our economy making the dollar worthless.If you knew this was the reason for the war would you have supported it? If our government was honest with us would that have changed your mind about the war? If they didnt lie to us and tell us it was to fight terrorism?
