I'm talking about individuals that actually make it to and have their names on the ballots for the New Hampshire / Iowa primaries. Everyone can pretty much predict Clinton, McCain, Vilasik (the first official candidate), and probably Kerry. Who else? Who's the favored candidate for each party?

good Questioner asked:

If Republicans are so into family values, why don't they promote changes in the law that REALLY would?

strengthen marriages
1. Bring back common law marriage - people would automatically be married after they live together a certain amount of time or if they lived together and had children
2. Make divorce more difficult
3. Increase funds going to child support enforcement instead of decreasing.


Then:

C=JD

1. You raise the incentive for people to live with another person outside of marriage for the purposes of eventually becoming married. This is not necessarily good public policy.
2.Making divorce more difficult is not necessarily a good thing. There are instances, abuse for example, where a quick divorce is important.
3. When was this "decreased"? Link please.

What C=JD is actually saying IS:



1- We armchair christians will decdide what to do with your tax dollars.

2- The straight divorce/gay marriag ban is NOT hypocritical because,well,quite frankly,

it's a christian BIRTHRIGHT to write the law in a way convenient for nominal christians.

3-we refuse to rationally acknowledge increasing child support because we will dammit.Now

go away!

4- We'll stay out of your personal lives allright,after we're DONE with you!!





Wouldnt America be a better place is people like C=JD would at least admit they want gay or unmarried couples to be second-class citizens itself of all the fanct dancing around the issue.As usual,the epublican base is on the WRONG side of history.



Like the American voters said Tuesday:"Enough transparent peity.I want accountability".

Would it possible or to the best intrest for our government and citizens to pay the people that would hold family values and morals by not divorcing and uphold values by no arrest records? After reading here I can see how some may think so.

He clearly could've contested the election results. But did NOT. Why ? He cited unnecessary cost to the tax-payers and unnessary obstructionism to an election that was not going to be turned over in a re-count.

Can we see some of that HONOR on this site from the other side of the aisle ???

I KNOW I am a Republican BUT - I think the Democrats on here did not win with dignity.
They rubbed our noses in the Republican defeat.

This was a good life lesson for me on how NOT to act when I win?

What are everyone's thoughts?

Sinn Fein have been given the go-ahead by USA to restart financial contributions to aid thier political campaigns.

Do other Northern Ireland political parties receive such U.S. funding for thier political campaigns?

Why can't such financial aid for political campaigns here in Northern Ireland be "put in the single pot" and divided equally between all political parties?

If the funds are indeed for genuine political campaigning in Northern Ireland, and allowing for such a great Irish/American community there in USA, by making sure all contributions are put into the single pot for all would reduce the chances of U.S. funding campaigns being cancelled and stopped by the authorities?

Surah At-Tahrim (Banning Prohibition) is a short chapter in the Quran. Theres no hiding the ball here guys. Link. http://cwis.usc.edu/dept/MSA/quran/066.qmt.html

Quran 66:09 YUSUFALI: O Prophet! Strive hard against the Unbelievers and the Hypocrites, and be firm against them. Their abode is Hell,- an evil refuge (indeed).

Ok, so if you read the short chapter, you see that theres no reference to unbelievers who attack Muslims. Nope, Muhammad is is to "strive hard against" them. Why? Just cause they are not Muslim, for no other reason.

Ok, so, for no other reason, other than the fact that they havent yet adopted this fledgling religion that they couldnt possibly know about yet, Allah commands Muhammad to strive hard and be firm "against them".

If you were a non-muslim in that time, and Muhammad was fighting you or is "against you" simply because you werent Muslim, would that lead you to Islam? Allah's a pretty fair God isnt he? Why not the 'honey' approach?

Yes, it is an either or scenario. Its not for debate, that captialist systems rapidly move technology forward based of free market competition. Whereas Socialist and Communist systems can only try to keep pace under a Stalinist regime (with the blood of millions) and even then, not come close to what free societies achieve.

Whats forgotten of course, is the ability of technology, in and of itself, to raise the standard of living for the poor. With great efficiency, comes cheaper means of providing the basics. Of course, to the narrow-minded leftists, its an either or proposition. Its better for all to live in a mudpit, than some living is great wealth while the rest live in an "unequal" level of modest comfort.

The Republican Party had the Presidency and controlled the House and Senate for most of the last six years. In those years, they accomplished little and there were mutliple scandals. Their biggest foreign policy initiaative, the Iraq War, is a disaster. Record budget surpluses turned to record budget deficits. Our relationships with other countries are the worst I have ever seen them. Okay, the Democrats have admittedly not come up with good plans of their own, at least not yet. But shouldn't a party that had so much opportunity and failed be replaced so that someone else has a shot?
