Politics - 24 August 2007

Ok, you are against abortions..right? and for many of you this is a huge issue perhaps the most important of all for some of you. Ok, If studies show that there is a high correlation between poverty and abortion, would you agree that one of the ways to fight abortion is to reduce poverty? Would you agree that part of Christ's message was to help others in need? Would you agree that by fighting poverty you not only will help save lives by reducing abortions, but also get a bonus by following the teachings of christ on helping others?

Did you listen to President Bush's speech to the VFW the other day?

He made a comment about how much better off Japan is now that we talked them out of Imperialism after WWII.

I thought that was pretty ironic since trying to promote a so called American Democracy worldwide through war is in itself an Imperialistic mission!

So Imperialism is OK if it's the U.S. version?

Even if we infringe on our own laws and constitutional amendments to accomplish it?

Am I the only one who sees something wrong with that?

Do you support term limits? Why, or why not?

Who would you vote for from y/a politics to be President??
I think Rove and Brian would BOTH be excellent candidates.

Isn't it all the same. Either way, innocence is being killed.

If he did the exact same things for Gore or Kerry as he did for Bush would you complain then?

Just saw a question asking if I was going to support the 9/15/07 rally to impeach Bush. Are these people that stupid AND ignorant?

Even if I would like to see Bush impeached I do know that a rally isn't going to do anything. Democrats are NEVER going to impeach a Bush --Unless some relation of his gets eleted to President and they impeach that one.

1. Democrats don't have the votes necessary to impeach and oust Bush from the Presidency. Republicans were stupid to try and oust Clinton they didn't have the votes.

2. There isn't anything Bush has done that Democrats big guns haven't backed at one time or another.

3. If they even tried they would lose the House and Senate and possibly eliminate any chance they have for gaining the White House.

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!

If memory serves me correctly, they DID say that.
It turns out we were WRONG.
Why do some say Bush lied about Iraq having WMD??
Or did they ALL lie??

I'm referring to the recent story about General Rick Lynch:

http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20070824/ap_on_go_ca_st_pe/us_iraq

I did not and do not approve of our Idiot King's bogus "war" in Iraq, but the fact is that we *are* there (and EVERY politician who voted for it should be IMPEACHED!), and it seems to me that, even though I'd like our troops withdrawn, I only know what I read in the media.

Doesn't it seem more foolhardy to continue politicizing this, rather that let the people who actually know the "business" decide what's best for their own command?

Just wondering what others think.

It just seems from discussing the Iraq war on here, people who are against it seem to have more in-depth and logical answers than those who are for it who often answer in sentences as well as recycle the same false points over and over, what do you think?

I'm tempted to ask Why? but my question is : many of you seem to think the answer to all the world's conflicts is 'nuke 'em' .

Has anyone actually explained to you the workings of a nuclear bomb? Are you imagining that it works like a neat little bundle of death only targeting the 'bad people' and leaving the rest smelling of roses? Because I don't think it does work like that you know.

We can't just nuke the rest of the world as most of you want to.

I think we need to get nukes out of the hands of conservatives before they destroy the U.S.

It seems to me that our government(and by this I mean every administration and every congress since Nixon)has went out of its way to weaken the United States economically and somewhat militarily vis a vis China,until now,the Chinese have become our main supplier for virtually everything we import,hold at least a trillion dollars in debt,have a huge trade imbalance going against us,and is now in the process of modernizing and expanding its military,in many cases with American technology.

Why has our government-Democrats and Republicans-done this to us?

I am amazed at the stupidity and transparent racism of the NAACP. THe fact that this orginazation retains ANY credibility is beyond me...

How the can support Vick...a LAW BREAKER, is insane. The guy is SCUM.

If I'm white and commit a felony, where's MY organization to say that I should simply be given another chance, because I'm white ?

Insane.

Im trying to decide who's the bigger scumbag of the month : Robert Murray, or Mike Vick.

would you rather fight them over here?

2007-08-24 05:10:48 · 33 answers · asked by Anonymous

The Terrorists have hit London, Spain, Bali and others but because of George W. Bush's policies;

Wire Taps
Patriot Act
Cuba Prison Camps
Fighting them over there....so we don't have to fight them over here.

The terrorists have not been able to strike America on her own soil.

I've never seen the provision of free public schools questioned... when this benefits far less people than health care would.

Everyone keeps saying "why should i pay for anyone else's healthcare?" If you feel that way, then why should you pay for anyone else's kid's schooling? Why not get rid of public schools, and let parents pay for their kids own schooling?

It can't be just because it's about kids- health care involves kids too.

I'm not saying I agree with one or the other, I just wonder why no one seems to bat an eyelid about government provided schools and yet so many are terrified at the prospect of universal health. What's the big difference?
