It is almost certain that democrats will have a majority in the house, and it is possible for them to gain control of the senate. If they do what do you think will be the issue that they will champion?

To get things started:
Anyone currently making under 6.85 per hour will likely get a raise to at least that amount in the next two years. There is strong support for a minimun wage increase amoung democrats.

Embryonic stem cell research, most democrats and many republicans support this issue, and it will recieve a moderate chance of getting a two-thrids majority to overturn President Bush's veto in congress.

What other issues do you think they will support? And try and find something in addition to Iraq and war on terror to discuss

it turned out that ALL the Warnings about liberals hurting OUR COUNTRY were RIGHT ?? The HATRED causes DIVISION. The HATRED HELPS the TERRORISTS...The HATRED is COUNTER-PRODUCTIVE....HATRED IS WRONG

Let me say that again... .. . .THE HATRED IS WRONG !!

HATRED has never BUILT ANYTHING.

HATRED only SERVES TO DESTROY.

And the TERRORISTS KNOW IT.. .So why don't YOU ???

9/11. More than five years ago. The "evidence" for more since then is lacking, as is any logical reason for withholding it.

Considering how deep in the muck our country is with Iraq, Afghanistan, N Korea, and all the domestic problems we are experiencing, do you really thing electing Democarats into Congresss will bring about positive change?

Do you think we should be trying to limit or decrease the world arsenal of nuclear weapons? I'm not talking about only our arsenal but the total world wide arsenal of nukes. Does this make sense or not?

Thanks.

How did you feel about saddam before bush was in office, when your liberal heros said the following?

"One way or the other, we are determined to deny Iraq the capacity to develop weapons of mass destruction and the missiles to deliver them. That is our bottom line."
President Clinton, Feb. 4, 1998.

"If Saddam rejects peace and we have to use force, our purpose is clear. We want to seriously diminish the threat posed by Iraq's weapons of mass destruction program."
President Clinton, Feb. 17, 1998.

"Iraq is a long way from [here], but what happens there matters a great deal here. For the risks that the leaders of a rogue state will use nuclear, chemical or biological weapons against us or our allies is the greatest security threat we face."
Madeline Albright, Feb 18, 1998.

"He will use those weapons of mass destruction again, as he has ten times since 1983."
Sandy Berger, Clinton National Security Adviser, Feb, 18, 1998

"[W]e urge you, after consulting with Congress, and consistent with the U.S. Constitution and laws, to take necessary actions (including, if appropriate, air and missile strikes on suspect Iraqi sites) to respond effectively to the threat posed by Iraq's refusal to end its weapons of mass destruction programs."
Letter to President Clinton, signed by Sens. Carl Levin, Tom Daschle, John Kerry, and others Oct. 9, 1998.

"Saddam Hussein has been engaged in the development of weapons of mass destruction technology which is a threat to countries in the region and he has made a mockery of the weapons inspection process."
Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D, CA), Dec. 16, 1998.

"Hussein has ... chosen to spend his money on building weapons of mass destruction and palaces for his cronies."
Madeline Albright, Clinton Secretary of State, Nov. 10, 1999.

If you remember right, the German people allowed Hitler and the Nazis to take over Germany because they promised to rid the country of Communists.

This was, later, found to be the worst mistake in German history.

Now, the Republicans, who have been infiltrated and taken over by the Nazis, keep harping on getting rid of Communism in America. This is evidenced by the Nazi techniques that the Republicans are now advocating and Bush is singning into law, such as condoning torture, building "secret" torture chamber prisons all around the world, spying on American citizens, wire-tapping of American citizens, the ability of marching American citizens off, in the middle of the night, never being heard from again.

The Nazis have always used the "Divide and Conquor" techniques.

Israel has also been infiltrated and taken over by the Nazis, as evidenced in their ruthless attack on Lebanese citizens.

Could this just be something that America and Israel will be sorry for very soon

"enemy combatants" without the media noticing?
So much for that whole liberal media bias.
Lets throw another sacrificial lamb out to be slaughtered. They probably made the whole thing up.IM records and all.

Or have been to the local recruiter to go defend this nation? Or have put your life on the line defending our way of life? Or have smelled the rank odor of death and destrution?

If you have done neither of these, yet defend this state of perpetual war we are currently in, why the heck shouldn't I, and all the rest that have served or continue to serve, not consider you stinking hypocrties?
