Politics - 19 September 2006

It says in James that pure religion undefiled is to take care of the widows and the orphans while Republicans want to strip away or greatly decrease social benefits, such as Medicare. Also, Republicans are pro-Death penalty. Come on, life is either sacred or it's not.

Yes, Democrats as a whole take the stand on pro-Abortion and pro gay rights. But which is worse? Not taking care of people, shooting down people in other countries, lying, stripping us of our freedom of privacy, or saying it's okay for homosexuals to get married? I am sick of the "You can't be a democrat and a Christian" crap.

Other than military and economic power, what types of power can give countries weight in the arena of world politics and international affairs?

UN surely is the only hope for global action as a community, acting under laws. But it's impotent when USA (which refuses International Court jurisdiction) ignores it or acts unilaterally (as in Iraq invasion - although Bush enlisted UN for support when in obvious trouble). This impotence, particularly over Palestine, Rwanda, etc, coupled to regular denigration by US, according to outgoing UN Sec-Gen Kofi Annan, is now threatening future of UN. Similar unilateral white-anting destroyed League of Nations pre World War 11. Do we have to rebuild a UN without a Security Council and the veto hangover ... and how ... or is only global anarchy possible?

I've noticed that a lot of people on here take a "we must go to war instead of sitting down and talking it out with other governments" kind of stance. Hatred begats hatred, in my opinion, but I want to know the logic of those who believe war is the answer to our problems. (for real; I want to know if I am thinking about this in the wrong way so I can fix it. Or if I'm not, I want to know that too)

UN Assembly resolutions defining borders towards a "just peace", and on Israel's occupation, have never been enforced. Who blocked them and why?

I keep hearing the Democrats say that we should go after Bin Laden. Bin Laden is hiding in Pakistan. Do the Democrats think we should invade Pakistan to get Bin Laden? If Bush sent U.S. troops into Pakistan to get Bin Laden the Democrats would be crying about how Bush is violating Pakistan's sovereignty. It's almost as if the Democrats care more about politcs than national security.

I often read your bashing which leaves me woundering how you come to such a ignorant, hateful, anti-american mind set. I often read the bashing of FOX news, now you are aware that FOX news is the number one cable news program hands down. they beat CNN, MSNBC, combined in the ratings (and thats a fact look it up for yourself ) and with the final death of hate radio AIR AMERICA don't you think that maybe, just maybe you libs, and dems really don't know the facts. If you can't help but be stupid I understand, you just can't fix stupid. But I truly hope its just ignorance, because the truth can help you with that. where all americans the enemy is out there.

There are several hundred Americans, including politictions, businessmen and soldiers, including Senators McCain and Hagel, both Republicans, who have been honored by the Viet Nam government. I guess they're commies, too?

Actually, it's not a hall of fame at all. These men and women have been honored for their efforts to restore relationships with the country of Viet Nam.

Of course, the truth never stands in the way of the lies some people tell, does it?

I was trying to figure it out, Bin means "son of," but "laden"? What does that mean? is it "la deen"? As in "no religion"?
It just occured to me the other day, wouldn't it be interesting if it actually meant that?

Of course I could be completely wrong. Does anyone know for sure?
