Bush says that he will let the Generals in the military decide how best to proceed in Iraq. Does that mean that he would prefer a military dicatorship in foriegn affairs? I thought the President was the Commander in cheif, and that the Generals are supposed to follow the course set by civilian leadership.
It looks like Bush is revealing the true nature of what's going on in the White House. He's depending on someone else to tell him what to do on every issue he's called on to decide.

I would have thought that a muslim would be happy to staying their own lands. After all, Islam, they say is a peaceful and perfect religion. So why do we see thousands of them want to populate Europe, America, Canada, Australia...and other western countries.... is there a reason for this ?

Do not buy into the lie that only 12 million illegals are in the United States; the math does not add up. The hispanic community has grown by 75 to 80%. This is not 12 million; we are not studpid! Our liberal government will not dare tell the truth behind the numbers.

Also, Do not buy into the lie that it is impossible to deport such a number. That's a blantant lie!! That is a strategy used by politicians, hispanic and self interest groups. If thousands are being deported on a daily basis, the number will dwindle in a few years.

We have millions of buses, planes, vans, cars, and utility vehicles that are goverment owned. They do not want to use them for transporting for political reasons.

The most important thing right now is for you to STOP quoting the lies you hear. Do not buy into the lies!

When in fact he has nothing to do with the trade center attack. the attack was an inside job with Bush and oil companies as the main suspects. The invasion of iraq was to look for WMD's but none found and we are still there, why?Vietnam is fine now and we left Vietnam so iraq will do fine without our democracy at gun point. why is no body going after the war criminal Bush, who has murdered the leader of iraq and installed a US puppet of Iraqi renegades born in the US. The mass killings that Bush has done in iraq are so obvious and why nobody is doing anything about it.?????.More then 4000 US members of the militar have been killed in the name of oil and nobody is doing anything, why???.

I do not like to share my opinions before I get answers , but honestly it kinda makes me mad.

Especialy the people who live here! I mean I am not very patriotic or very red blooded, infact my parents are both imigrants, but I grew up here and it has been my home for all my life.And I it will be a part of me wherever I go...

I understand America has done alot of bad things but so have other countries. We are only as good as our leaders and people are starting to realize that our leaders are not doing such a great job (Isnt Bushes rating down to like 43%?). Again I am not your "average" American (I am pro gun control, against abortion(In a way, I feel that since it is still in your body you can do with it as you wish but it is still murder and wrong) and I disliked Bush and the war since the start.

So how do you feel about people who say this and why do they say it?

I understand disliking Bush, but why HATE anyone

Please do not let my opinion alter your answer I wnat to hear why people say these things

Everyone remember your early education about the American Government? One of the first things they cover in a Civics class is the idea of Rights and Responsibilities. Most rights have corresponding responsibilities, IE. you have the right to life, thus you can't murder someone as that is violating their right to life.

Understanding these simple principles, how is the current state of abortion law acceptable when it comes to MEN? I am not talking about a woman's rights here, I am talking about the double standard that men are placed in when it comes to rights vs. responsibilities. A man has no RIGHT to that child, and can't force a woman to carry his child to term. So how can it possibly be Constitutional to charge him 18 years of child support if the situation is reversed?

Legally, it's taxation without representation, and the last time that happened we fought a war over it. I don't want to get bogged down in moral arguments, I am asking if you think it is legally justifiable.

the "govt leaders growing fat on corruption" are our leaders. 2 oil men in office attacking and taking control of a country that "happens" to be rich in oil. and then when they have control and give a no bid contract to haliburton (cheneys old company)to sale oil to us here in the states, it goes up to ridiculous record shattering all time highs. who do you think that money is going to? it is blindly irresposible for us to give a pass to our politicians getting fat off the american people because theyre "wiping out terrorism." what a joke, the bush families and the bin laden families have been business partners in numerous oil ventures over the generations. we need to wake up and call bullshit on our govts true intentions in iraq.

United we stand divided we fall? It's a grim thought but it's sick enough to fit in with the new 'bending of integrity'. It seems like that would be a strategy so citizens would find it hard to mobilize if ever need be.

Ministers insisted that British secret agents would only be allowed to pass intelligence to the CIA to help it capture Osama bin Laden if the agency promised he would not be tortured, it has emerged.
MI6 believed it was close to finding the al-Qaida leader in Afghanistan in 1998, and again the next year. The plan was for MI6 to hand the CIA vital information about Bin Laden. Ministers including Robin Cook, the then foreign secretary, gave their approval on condition that the CIA gave assurances he would be treated humanely. The plot is revealed in a 75-page report by parliament's intelligence and security committee on rendition, the practice of flying detainees to places where they may be tortured.
