Politics - 2 July 2007

[Selected]: All categories Politics & Government Politics

Do you equate your country with its government, or do you consider your country more or less its people?

Regardless of whether the majorities of the two agreed, which would you put first in situations of, for example, external or internal war - the people or the government? Keep in mind that a government can be reconstituted from the people.

I have seen that liberal individuals have a more 'the country is the people' mindset, whereas I'm not sure about what some conservatives believe about this.

Please keep to polite discourse - I think my question is reasonable enough.

He was impeached, all that means is charges were brought. He was never indicted on charges and never removed from office.

Libby however was CONVICTED by a jury of his peers and sentanced by a federal judge. 3 other judges UPHELD the sentence. Bush has spit in the face of judiciary, and he should pay the price.

Suppose some thousands of millions of dollars, convinient that weapons of mass destruction have "been found" which gives americans the perfect excuse to go into iraq and retrieve this big fortune. Also Iraq was the strongest arabic country, quite developped, now it's not so. Alot of people have been turned off muslims, hmm i wander how bush feels about them.

Every liberal who has had an abortion feels compelled to defend abortion for all women; every Air America listener who can’t stand the USA feels the need to defend Saddam ; and every Democrat who voted for Bill Clinton feels the need to defend duplicity, adultery, lying about adultery, sexual harassment, rape, perjury, draft dodging, obstruction of justice, kicking the can of global Islamo-fascism down the road for eight years and so on.

Seriously! Clinton's been out of office for nearly a decade now and Carter's been out for almost 30 years. Give it a rest already!

after everything he's done pardoning Libby is the icing on the cake. i think he's the worst leader this country has ever seen and one of the worst leaders the world has ever seen.

What would you think about starting a campaign to get both the Republicans and Democrats to denounce the terms "conservative" and "liberal" and then really debate the issues. Why can't we be for stem cell research and against abortion; why can't we be for legalizing the immigrants that are already here and stopping more from coming in; why can't we have universal health care and lower taxes by taking away all the lifetime privileges of politicians?

Middle-of-the-roaders unite! Please.

* Insert all appropriate expletives here!

The pardon of the FELON, Scooter Libby, should come as no surprise to all who have recognized GW Bush as the THIEF he's proven himself to be since before he first occupied our STOLEN White House. This is par for the course -- but it's also the straw that broke the camel's back, as I see it.

To wit --

Thanksgiving, 2000 -- ABC-TV News documents with video the importation by bus of THUGS to intimidate the Palm Beach County vote-counters.

December, 2000 -- Dishonest CRONIES of Bush on the US Supreme Court ensure that Bush can STEAL the White House.

Bush has since proven himself to be a murderous war criminal, as the worst mass-murderer the world has experienced since Pol Pot. Over 3,300 lives of our own troops WASTED, and around 100,000 innocent Iraqis MURDERED.

And NOW he has just DESTROYED all credibility that the US Justice System still had. How many of you, like me, will NEVER again accord it ANY credibility whatsoever?
