Norway's Moose Population in Trouble for Belching
The poor old Scandinavian moose is now being blamed for climate change, with researchers in Norway claiming that a grown moose can produce 2,100 kilos of carbon dioxide a year -- equivalent to the CO2 output resulting from a 13,000 kilometer car journey.

Leftist governmental elites promote Marxist policies because they honestly think they know better than us and can take care of us. They are the elitists Lenin referenced.

Do you frequently observe this elitism and general superior attitude that conservatives just a bunch of stupid construction workers and rednecks from liberals/progressives on their “news sites” and blogs and here at YA? (Lenin referred to these as “Useful Idiots”)

What would happen in every US city if the police and army were disbanded?

Remember the civil disorder and looting in New Orleans after Katrina removed police intervention?

Black females abort 3 times as often as whites.

Is that because in general blacks have access to abortion that costs them less money --- because of different insurance or government programs ? Or do whites and blacks in general pay the same out of pocket costs for abortions?

Bush is responsible for everything bad in the world and in our lives. He is amazingly stupid yet able to pull off the largest most complex conspiracies the world has seen at the same time. He is responsible for every terrorist attack. He is just exactly like Hitler. He killed our children with lead on Chinese made toys. In fact he hates all children and won't give them health care. He has started wars for no reason at all and for every wrong reason at the same time. Everyone on the internet understands geopolitical events with 20/20 insight besides him. He is actually just a pawn of the Isarelis, well except he is also just a pawn to oil companies.

Anything else?

"President Bush's two-day summit with the leaders of Canada and Mexico, beginning today in nearby Montebello, is raising fears among some conservatives that the three governments are planning a European Union-style super-government."
"America is finished."

"Mexico and Canada are gone too.

"In their place: One massive country, the North American Union (NAU), bordered by the Bering Sea to the north and Guatemala to the south, the Atlantic to the east and the Pacific to the west.
"NAU citizens no longer spend dollars or salute Old Glory. They spend 'ameros,' and the flag that waves over its capitals shows the entire Western Hemisphere.
"The national borders of the United States have been forever erased. While that scenario may sound far-fetched, critics of the Security and Prosperity Partnership (SPP) warn that future could be here sooner than anyone realizes."

I am an independent. I often wonder where people get there information regarding political issues, candidates, foreign policy, etc. Many people on Y!A's seem to feel very passionate about one candidate, issue, policy, etc. or completely against another. Many people state that our President lied about many things, how do they know? Were they there in Iraq, were they there working in the field for the CIA? Were they in the Pentagon? Are you aware that many things regarding national security will never be revealed, even if it could prove that someone did not lie? Please don't say you get your information from the "media" (CNN, FOX, NY Times) because if you actually stated this, then nothing you say is credible. It is a proven fact that the media is biased and lies repeatedly to promote their own agenda. It is very interesting that when these questions are brought up, those people who feel they know everything, have nothing to say that is worth listening too. Where do you get your info?

If we leave then they can fight it out and we can keep our kids safe. Staying there only creates more hostility on their end. and we've already dumped every person's future chance at social security by spending way too much already. Why would leaving be so bad?

I always see Conservatives attacking Liberals and vice versa. Why can't people on other sides of the political fence ever agree to disagree or at the very least have intelligent and diplomatic debates on opposing issues! It's very seldom that I hear either side making a good point without attacking the other sides credibility, sanity, or motives. Give me a break people! Grow up!

1. Who was the Democratic Vice Presidential Candidate in 1984

2. Who won Survivor 1

My guess is probably 80-100% will get 1 right, and maybe 50-70 will get number 2.

Iraq’s prime minister lashed out Wednesday at U.S. criticism, saying no one has the right to impose timetables on his elected government and that his country “can find friends elsewhere.”

Bush on Tuesday said he was frustrated with Iraqi leaders’ inability to bridge political divisions. But he added that only the Iraqi people can decide whether to sideline al-Maliki.

“No one has the right to place timetables on the Iraq government. It was elected by its people,” he said at a news conference in Damascus at the end of the three-day visit to Syria.

“Those who make such statements are bothered by our visit to Syria. We will pay no attention. We care for our people and our constitution and can find friends elsewhere,” al-Maliki said
