How low does an IQ have to be for it to be considered "FAULTY"?

I asked this question earlier today and I got about 25 people all quote their bumper stickers "Teach a man to fish, and he'll eat forever". That answer is extremely inadequate. FYI, nobody is offering to teach these people anything that point is meaningless.

QUESTION: Where do we draw the line with helping the needy (sick and poor)? I hear many people say life is sacred and is the most important. With that said, how can we judge dying people for decisions they’ve made in their life?……all legal decision by the way, no laws were broken. Are we letting people die because of greed? I think so.

The big argument I hear is that we shouldn’t be forced to help these people. Many people in my previous question said the govt., according to Jesus(which is totally irrelevant by the way), has no business in helping the people. The people must help themselves first.

In America we have 200 different breakfast cereals and only 2 political parties. In Europe they have dozens of political parties and only 2 breakfast cereals; mueslix with nuts and mueslix without nuts. WTF is wrong with America?

Do you think Mengele got the worst deal of all the prominant Nazis? He got it worse than anyone, having to look over his shoulder all the time. I think that is just punishment. Poor guy. What do you think?

I know in 1980, for example, an american consumer was able to buy a car that was capable of 45 miles per gallon on the express way. Here we are nearly 30 years later, and think about all the new technology that has come about.....and it looks like we have made no progress in the gas mileage arena. Think about it........its really fascinationg how that can be. If we could get 45 miles per gallon in 1980, we should definitely be at 100 by now or perhaps gasoline free.

What are the political reasons for this lack of advancement?

Please spare the lame rhetoric "Until victory is achieved" and all of the other empty slogans that won't fit on a ribbon.

This is with the understanding that the military (since these are war zones) has the power to allow or not allow civilians to do or not do certain things.

Also, would you approve of Iranian mullahs being allowed temporary visas to come to USA to do missionary work?

Thank you in advance for your thoughtful answers.

Independent conservative radio talk show host Michael Savage is under fire by the fascists in San Fransicko.

He made comments about illegal immigration that were taken out of context.

And now, a supervisor from the city is contemplating whether to sure Savage or not. He also wants him removed from radio.

The reason why I'm asking all political parties to defend him is because this is for the good of the country. (U.S.A.) By defending Savage, you're defending freedom of speech and the Constitution.

Savage is just the bait.

So come on, what do you say?

If you say no, you're going along with the fascists.

Be an American.

GOD BLESS AMERICA!

mideast countries (Iraq, Iran, Afganistan, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, etc.) were all located just south of the border where Mexico is? Would this change our views on the war? Would this change our views on national security? Would this change our views on immigration?

"Because if we'd gone to Baghdad we would have been all alone. There wouldn't have been anybody else with us. There would have been a U.S. occupation of Iraq. None of the Arab forces that were willing to fight with us in Kuwait were willing to invade Iraq.

Once you got to Iraq and took it over, took down Saddam Hussein's government, then what are you going to put in its place? That's a very volatile part of the world, and if you take down the central government of Iraq, you could very easily end up seeing pieces of Iraq fly off: part of it, the Syrians would like to have to the west, part of it -- eastern Iraq -- the Iranians would like to claim, they fought over it for eight years. In the north you've got the Kurds, and if the Kurds spin loose and join with the Kurds in Turkey, then you threaten the territorial integrity of Turkey.

It's a quagmire if you go that far and try to take over Iraq."

A check of the facts shows that Western forces have been killing civilians at a faster rate than the insurgents.

The U.S. and NATO say they don't have civilian casualty figures, but The Associated Press has been keeping count based on figures from Afghan and international officials. Tracking civilian deaths is a difficult task because they often occur in remote and dangerous areas that are difficult to reach and verify.

As of Aug. 1, the AP count shows that while militants killed 231 civilians in attacks in 2007, Western forces killed 286. Another 20 were killed in crossfire that can't be attributed to one party.

Afghan President Hamid Karzai expressed his concern about the civilian deaths during a meeting last week with President Bush.

Just mentioning the word is enough to make people's jaws drop. Considering that most other Western countries are socialist, why is it so alarming?

Is it the high taxes they have? Is it our phenomenal health care system we just couldn't go without? Is it the 1 month vacations they get that we are appalled by?

I don't want to live in a socialist country personally. Had to add that in there, though I know many people will be typing their response before reading that and will say "then move". But I don't see it being THAT much worse. In some ways it is better, some ways worse. But I don't think it warrants the gut reaction it gets in the U.S.

As Americans, we have been conditioned to have a knee jerk reaction to the idea of Socialism. I think it's a left over from the cold war mostly, and not much based on logic.
