Republitards bash their own.

Patrick Sammon, executive vice president of the Log Cabin Republicans, a gay GOP group, said it's important to the future of the Republican Party that politicians like Koering can find support.

"If the Republicans want to be a lasting majority party in America, they can't just shut out gays and lesbians," Sammon said.

I didn't stop and give a moment of silence or fly an American Flag? Why do people keep asking if anyone will fly their American flag today? Shouldn't it fly everyday?

If an economy such as the US's is bolstered by war what is the motivation for peace? I was just thinking about all of the businesses who profit from war - not just the obvious ones like Haliburton - but others like all of those businesses who contract with the military to provide k-rations or uniforms or security gear etc.

Stories of these responders are surfacing with more frequency today and the tragic health problems associated with the efforts immedietly following the attacks to rescue possible survivors .
Many who worked to clean up this site have become ill and or incopasitated because of the efforts they made and are struggling to get the due care and consideration of a nation who was so proud of these men and women till the price is now coming due .
IS it the bottom line that really affects america and have you noticed the number of eateries and shops in airports that have a captive audience to eat and shop now that they have to spend numerous extra hours at the airports .
Profit it seems is all america is realy about .
I am saddened by our responce to the first responders and the law suites that must be filed to obtain some messure of compensation when it should be forthcoming .

South Carolina is a Red state, it's part of the Religious Belt and the age of consent for females is 14 years old. This is a big Religious based state yet it allows the age of consent to be 14 years old for females, why is that?

Okay, I’m sick of this whole “9/11 is a conspiracy” thing, or at least blaming the U.S. government for it. It seems no one ever researches this matter for themselves, they just blindly believe what some so-called documentary tells them. Now I’m no fan of Bush or republicans (to be honest I hate both parties), but lets be honest with ourselves, if the government wanted to hide this they would have done a much better job. Not to mention the U.S. had nothing to gain from this, and everything to lose.
No, if anyone besides “terrorists” had anything to do with it I believe it would be oil companies. They have gained unbelievable amounts of money from the Middle East conflicts that arose from this. So can we stop blaming the wrong people, and actually try and fix this mess.

P.S. If the U.S. wanted the oil in Iraq, they would have already reestablished it’s oil/drilling infrastructure.

Especially seing as her and her husband hold a significant amount of personal responsibility for failed to smite Al-Qaeda going all the way back to the 1993 bombing of the WTC.

And anyone who thinks that Bill and Hillary ran the presidency as a team (with Hillary leading) need not answer the question...

And you know that if she speaks she will definitely use it to put a dig in against the current Office. She is a person completely without dignity or respect.

By that I mean how are candidates for the presidency chosen, how come there are only two candidates?

How do they pass new laws? Where?

Could someone please give me a summary of it all please? I live in the UK and find it all so confusing and would really like to know so I can relate the news in the US to their political system.

Thanks

Considering the GOP and terrorists have been in cahoots for decades.

Question: how can the USA condone the formation of a America-hating, terrorist-funding political party like the GOP?

I havent heard of it as of lately, but there was talk of Racial Profiling Arabs at airports. This would cause a predictable pattern and give an opportunity to Non-Arab Terrorists to plot and attack the US.

if i randomly open up the koran, the probability that i find a hateful intolerant verse is very high...i just read "the end of faith" by sam harris and in his book he quotes hateful bullsh*t from the koran and it takes up FIVE AND A HALF FULL PAGES! and that's just single sentences, not full passages.

my point is that ISLAM IS NOT A RELIGION OF PEACE. IT IS A RELIGION OF DEATH AND INTEROLANCE AND DESTRUCTION. we would all benefit if islam (and other monotheistic religions) were eliminated from the earth.

i hope we would just go ape and take out the whole middle east and any muslim communities in europe. my implicit assumption in that statement is that any muslim is suspect in my book.

i was just watching CNN and they took a poll on who was to blame for 911...and the responses were all about WHICH ADMINISTRATION TO BLAME. this sickens me. TERRORIST MUSLIMS ARE TO BLAME FOR 9/11, NOT ANY ADMINISTRATION.

i nearly spit when i heard that. if they rephrased the question and said, "which administration handled terrorism the poorest" then i could see your point. but jeez, who is to blame for 9/11? THE PEOPLE WHO DID IT. IT'S SIMPLE. NOT AMERICAN IMPERIALISM OR THE ISRAELI STATE.
