The headlines in the paper today say that 655,000 people have been killed so far in the Iraq war. I imagine that most of them are innocent Iraq people including many children. It makes the number killed in 9/11 look tiny. Do you still think it was right to invade Iraq?

" you can have it why not me?"; "its an internal affair" ; " we shall never be bullied again" these are some of the arguments for nuke power- house- to -be. I can't comprehend why would any country needs nuclear weapons? pride? ego? ignorence? foolishness?inferior complexity?selfishness? I don't know, but i do know if we don't regulate the number of countries having nuclear, the outlook of our children's future will not be so bright. We would be virtually living in a place filled with gigantic landmind, and it would take a wrong move to wipe out the entire human race.......its a sad state, knowing the fact that lay men like you and i can't do anything (to change it)makes it more frustrating.

Norfolk, Va. - While the results of the research are preliminary, scientists at the Diminutive Male Genitalia Disorder Research Organization have discovered a genetic link between small penis size and the being liberal. The organization recently began to tabulate data from a two-year study of men with Diminutive Male Genitalia Disorder (DMGD) and has posted the results on its Web site, DMGD.org.

The subjects of the study varied from men with a slight abnormality in penis size to men with pubis innius, a term for an inverted male pubic region. By tracing what has been identified as the "DMGD gene," an abnormality in the 21st chromosome was discovered. Researchers found that this abnormality appears to be consistently linked to two traits: abnormally small male reproductive organs and the ability to derive joy from liberal activities, which starts with acting out in school and, in isolated instances, can manifest itself in homosexual acts.

now lets get one thing strait i am not or never will be a racist!! but I'm sure I'll get called one for this question. but oh well here it goes the NAACP has started a new crusade attacking any thing that has to do with confederate. this means monuments in cemetery's or any where else. they even wanted Richmond to take down the portrait of Robert e lee even though he was champion of equal rights after the war. i was all for taking the confederate flag off the dome in SC . but this is going to far in my book most of the men that the memorials represent couldn't even afford to own slaves so why do they feel they need to remove stuff honoring the brave boys that died fighting for what they believed in AND IT WASN'T SLAVERY

The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized." - 4th amendment to the constitution

President Bush is determined to spy on us without a court order. Let's get something straight; neither I nor any other liberal I know of has any serious objection to government eavesdropping in the legitimate pursuit of criminal activity, including potential terror attacks.

Here's the problem. Bush first said that warrants were obtained for all wiretapping; that was false. Now he says that we're at war and he doesn't need a warrant. But why won't he explain his reasons to an appropriate court and get a warrant? How are we to know that he's not spying simply because he has a "gut feeling"? Or for political reasons or even for personal enrichment? Should I trust him? Should anybody? The constitution says that we don't have to; he must satisfy a court that there is probable cause to believe that the person being wire-tapped might be doing something wrong.

I don't trust the government that much - regardless of who the President is - that's why the constitution says what it says.

If a President has that kind of authority over us then the nation the founders created is dead and we are merely feudal vassals. It makes little difference to the serf whether he's enslaved by a domestic tyrant or a foreign one, the revolt will be the same.

5. He would get the gay votes.
4. His agenda would be completely different from the Conservatives and the Liberals.
3. He wouldnt have to read through his speech, he could just flip the pages.
2. He could send lewd emails to all his supporters.
1. If he made any mistakes as President, he could blame it all on being gay, alcoholic, and molested as a teen.

Dec 31 1992 Dow closes at 3301

Dec 29 2000 Dow closes at 10787.99

Now let's see shall we? 1087.99/3301=3.268

(3.268)^(1/8)=1.16 so gee that means you get a consistent return of 16% each year during the presidentcy of Bill Clinton doesn't seem to bad to me.

Then of course the Dow during Bush's presidency:
Jan 1 2001>>>dow closes 10787.99
oct 11 2006 >>> dow closes 11852.13

11852.13/10787.99=1.09864 so you made 9.864% in 5 years and 9 + months

1.09864^(1/5.75)=1.01649509698928

for a fantastic return of 1.65% per year so far during our "Bush Boom!!!"

Don't people understand that (as individuals) are all different and one cannot possibly understand someone by their political party?

If you do generalize, why do you?
