Man, they keep a-yelling and a-swearing at me. It's just plain scary! They think I'm hateful and mean and Godless but I'm a loving, Catholic kind and caring person. I just don't get these guys. Do I hear an amen? Do these HYPOCRITES scare anyone else?

I have heard many opposite and conflicting views. I am confused as to what they believe, or what exactly is their position on this issue?

Believe it or not this is a genuine question and I am just seeking to understand your position better (Hard to believe on YA sometimes, I know)

By environmental problems, I don't neccesarily mean global warming, per se. I don't want this to devolve into a global warming debate.

Rather, I am speaking more about polluted rivers and irresponsible industries polluting the air. There is firm science backing up that pollution is harmful to your health. Alot of conservatives support the second ammendment and enjoy hunting. It seems like some sort of environmentalism would be neccesary to make sure that your grandchildren will be able to enjoy hunting as well.

I'm seeking mature responses so that I can better understand your position.

with hillary, obama, edwards all saying they can't promise to remove troops in the next FIVE and a half years and all the republicans except ron paul being pro war, also.

ron paul has 47,000 volunteers. the most ever for a presidential candidate.
ron paul has 50% of ALL military campaign contributions.
ron paul has earned over 1,000,000 in the last 6 days from donations to close out the 3rd quarter.

if you are anti war, you need to look at ron paul.
support our military by getting them out of this unwinnable religious war.

You know, leaning so far right they have a back ache? Really conservative? How could someone be that way?
I don't know about you, but I can't stand it. I wouldn't go so far as to say I HATE them, but I strongly disagree with their views haha.

Being a good Catholic and liking it, but having Liberal or Democratic views? Is that really possible? What do you think?

Does anyone think that the whole american involvement in Iraq might be more about what we've not been told? The WMD in Iraq and 9/11 were the key in the ignition (so to speak) Liberation of a repressed people was given as a reason to stay, Stabilization was given as a reason to stay longer... but perhaps there are more reasons to stick around. Like having a base of operations to kept Iran in check. Also if you look at the geography of the middle east, and where most threats are comming from, Iraq and afganistan are statigic places from where to control the region. Perhaps there is more going on than what is just on the surface. Like when the US and USSR were at odds. we started to strategically place bases in Eurpoe and Asia to place pressure on The USSR.

My second question is, what will be said when Iraq is a stable, democratic society (i realize if this happens) well the left find other reasons to dislike the outcome? Can a leftist give me an idea what will be said if this happens

It gets rather old seeing all the childish taunts, rants, and name-calling that goes on here. Politics is not the Rams vs the Steelers or bad guy vs other bad guy.

Our country is falling apart right before our eyes and instead of seeking positive answers and direction and writing SERIOUS Q & A about how to change life for future generations, this wonderful medium called "The Internet" becomes a format for pissing contests.

Would some of you be willing to ask some thought-provoking political questions for the rest of the night?

AP News says:

"Congressional Democrats have chosen an unlikely source to pay for the bulk of their proposed $35 billion increase in children's health coverage: people with relatively little money and education."

What does this say about the Dems' ability to think something through?

Seemingly, Republicanism fails to thrive in an atmosphere of diversity. Can it exist only on it's own terms or is it able to be healthfully responsive to other beliefs, cultures and philosophies?

Is not just that people view us as war-mongerors. The worst part is, as soon as we get a Democrat elected, the world will forget that America used to be a country that stood by freedom. Even if Europeans made fun of us for "loving our freedom", I'm damn proud of it. I'm proud that we sent Britain packing from this magnificant land.

Our reputation for loving freedom, even if misunderstood by Subjects of Europe, is slipping away and that is an awful thing.
