It seems to me the promise of a moral America has become a Congress out of control and out of touch with the true morality of real Americans. Regardless of religion or race is this truthfully an improvement over the Democratic party.? While our Constitution may not matter to Mr. Bush, it is what our children are told they are fighting for in Iraq, isn't it? Or is Iraq only the distraction for this administrations quest for absolute domination over any other branch of power, all the while wiping out the integrity we once owned in the world, before-"Republican Morality" took over this country. Has their "morality" saved us from anything?

Bush has alientated the US from so many countries. He backed out of the Tokyo accord, started the Iraq war, and hosted secret CIA prisons in other countries. To us, Iran and North Korea pose significant nuclear threats, but we are unable to rally former allies to our cause because Bush has scared so many of them with his hard line, shoot first, policies.
Will building bridges and mending fences be key to re-stabilizing these regions and re-gaining foreign trust, or do you believe there are other more important priorities for the next president?

At a news conference, Clark said he feared that should Saddam and the others be hanged, "catastrophic violence" would follow that would lead to "the end of civilization as we know it in the birthplace of civilization, Mesopotamia. Total, unmitigated chaos."
WHAT ARE YOUR VIEWS?

OK, we all know that the major reasons for going to war in Iraq turned out not to be true. But does anyone still think it was a good idea anyway? I'm not talking about staying now or when to withdraw; I'm talking about the original invasion... If you could turn the clock back, would you have the US do it all over again?

Do their long suppressed consciences suddenly re-emerge and all converge? Does this cause the soul to challenge what the mouth is saying, causing Freudian Slips when you realize you’re on a sinking ship?

Does the finger-pointing pave the way for reverse finger-pointing as the truth becomes known? And when the ship starts sinking why does saving the women and children and our future become less important than trying to save a reputation or two?

Why are the victims brushed aside as an afterthought while political egos collide?

The alternative minimum tax is used by the rich, when they write off most of their income. It's one way the rich get a lot richer!

What would happen if the USA raised it from 1% to 15%?

We know he knew about the e-mails that were not at all graphic. Is there evidence he knew about IM's? Or do we just make people resign without it?

People do it all the time! I just got a violation notice for it. Sorry to rant, but OMG Yahoo ticks me off sometimes.
So seriously, IS it an insult to call someone narrow-minded, or to state that their answer is insipid?
Here is the question/answer that I said it about:
http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AryLlyaJZD5kx2vPH8EnXOwjzKIX?qid=20061004094249AAsegAF
And here is what I said, exactly:
"Sure, choose the most insipid answer, just because they agree with you. OMG you are SO narrow-minded. Must be nice burying your head in the sand. You should come back here whenever you make your way to the REAL WORLD."
I know this has little to do with politics really, but this is where it happened, so I figured I'd ask this here.

I know the Dems. are just trying to get their hits in before the elections next month...Last time I checked, we have a war going on in Iraq, Iran developing nuclear weapons, North Korea testing nuclear weapons, and those Al Qaeda nuts bent on our destruction. Shouldn't they be more focused on those issues and NOT trying to associate one pervert's wet dreams with an entire political party? And this whole Hastert cover up thing has to be the most rediculous thing I've heard. If he had any idea what Foley was up to he would have told him to quietly resign. If not for the protection of the pages, than that the Republican party.

I keep hearing that George Soros sponsored blogs knew about Foley for years. If it's proven that Dems knew all along before the elections will it have any effect? Pew and Zogby report that no one they polled prior to Foley-gate has changed their votes. What do you think?

Every time I watch the little mermaid or any other disney movie I get really racist all of a sudden, because i believe white people are the only ones on the planet capable of those beautiful emotions. I get an urge to vote republican and yell "DEPORT ALL ILLEGALS!!!"

Why is this?

Question after question about me.

They have no ideas, no suggestions...but they seem to have a fetish for me. Maybe they thought I was Mark Foley!

PS-as they already know.....I'm pro-life. So as for their "baby murdering" comments.... it just shows their comments only reflect their ignorance to the world.

Or did they start blaming everyone else for the incident and the cover-up?

Do you think there will be a whole generation of school kids that won't know the difference between the words "Republican" and "Hypocrite"?

or should we name them folley conservartives, or dalay conservatives appropriately. or should we just change the party name completely to re-thug-licans.

I'm looking for a current foreign policy initiative by government. I used (http://thomas.gov) for help. I found this Act but i'm unsure whether it is a good topic. I have to pick a specific foreign policy that is currently under construction in Congress.
