If God forbid a Christmas tree is displayed in public?

Actually, today it's 89 days until Christmas. But I meant to post this question yesterday.

So, let's see all of the names of the pinko communist liberal lawyer's groups who are going to try and steal Christmas from us.

By the way, stay tuned every 10 days for my questions about saving Christmas.

I'm having a 90, 80, 70, 60, 50, 40, 30, 20, 10, 1 day countdown.

GOD BLESS AMERICA!

Holy Poo! I have to admit Dubya did a good deed.

WASHINGTON - The Bush administration imposed economic sanctions against senior officials of Myanmar on Thursday, condemning the military-run government's crackdown on protesters.

The Treasury Department announced the sanctions against 14 senior officials of Myanmar, also known as Burma.

"The world is watching the people of Burma take to the streets to demand their freedom, and the American people stand in solidarity with these brave individuals," President Bush said in a statement.

"We feel admiration and compassion for the monks and peaceful protesters calling for democracy," Bush said. "Every civilized nation has a responsibility to stand up for people suffering under a brutal military regime like the one that has ruled Burma for too long."

Why is it that they aren't getting the best possible care, without question, without delay, without concern for the cost? The military ought to be seeking them out to be sure they are getting everything they need rather than vets and their families having to wade through red tape and delays to get it. Why are soldiers families cared for in a first class fashion while they are on duty....why are they on food stamps, welfare, living in substandard housing...they ought to be very well taken care of.

Ever wondered about that? How come all the little third-world countries can get sanctioned, like Myanmar, but the United States never does?

for one thing it is a option to have it. the fact that people complain about it is totally wrong. its only there to insure you have coverage when your in an accident or sick. you pay for it, thats how it works, stop blaming the companys , they have a business to help people and on the way to make some money..if the gov't wants to make health care free then let it be. otherwise, why do people complain about health insurance companies

President Bush on Thursday signed legislation designed to make college more affordable for students from poor and middle-class families, swallowing objections to a bill that enjoyed veto-proof majorities in Congress.
The new law achieves a goal Bush shares with lawmakers: boosting aid for needy students. The action allows both the Bush administration and Congress to say they have done something to ease the burden of paying for college, a popular political priority.
"I have the honor of signing a bill that will help millions of low-income Americans earn a college-degree," Bush said in a ceremony, with lawmakers and students by his side.
The legislation boosts the maximum Pell grant, which goes to the poorest college students, from $4,310 a year to $5,400 a year by 2012.
It also cuts in half the interest rates on federally backed student loans

And explaining to them the proper procedure for neutralizing Bush vetos. He's right about the procedure... why didn't the other candidates respond to a procedural suggestion of this sort?

I realize Gravel is out there... but in this case, that was basic Law of the Land he was talking. He's suggesting Bush CAN be stopeed from vetoing every decent Bill that pops up.

Why won't the party apparachiks use their accepted procedures in this case?

Hi, would anyone know of a list or article that would show what world leaders, dignitaries, etc. have come to America to get health care, surgery or procedures? I recall a world leader coming over for care, but cant remember who it was, I think there were quite a few more too.

It seems a lot of americans harbor ill feelings towards iranians for storming our embassy and holding hostages for a long time. But why were Iranians harboring ill feelings against the USA back then?

Do you support that kind of healthcare for your moms, wives, sisters, and daughters?

Wouldn't this save the country a lot of money? And once contractors found out it didn't pay to try to cheat us maybe they would stop. Corruption in our government is horrible and costly, let's get rid of them all! You wouldn't run a business long if you were giving your friends all of your money and not paying your investors.

Surely there is some basis for this never ending crap about impeaching Bush. What law has he broken? Are low approval ratings illegal, because if so, we should just clean the entire federal government out from top to bottom.

These people had health care insurance at the onset of there problems but lost it during their care. This could happen to anyone of us. Do you think this should be a priority for our country to come up with a better idea? And do you believe everything you hear about universal health care in other countries?

I find it interesting that media people keep quoting poll numbers about Congress and no one mentions this.

People are frustrated with Congress because of their blatant disregard for their duty to hold the President accountable for his deception and not upholding the rule of law that is found in our country's constitution!!!

And the Republicans use the low ratings as a plus for their party!?

Doesn't anyone else see this?

for all that ills the nation just because they have been in control of government for quite a few years? They whine about record budget deficits, record trade deficits, record foreclosures, record influx of illegal aliens, record, record negative of the USA overseas, record dissatisfaction of the american people in their government, etc.... and blame it all on Bush and republicans. Don't they know that economies have their ups and downs and that the Great Bush economy could not last forever and that its only naturally there is a temporary hiccup? Geez, did you libs ever take any economics classes?
