Should we be giving tax breaks to a business who is shipping their jobs overseas, or a business making billions in profit?

Being that they have a strong economy, a stronger dollar than the US, and a foreign policy that leaves them as one of the more likeable nations (no one ones to attack Canada), would it make sense to adapt their foreign policy?

I'm puzzled by this phrase. It always seems to refer to a sort of phantom, wishy-washy, self-hating, unpatriotic, grubby little troll that I have never actually met in my life, whereas 'liberal' actually has a quite specific meaning in UK political history and a different meaning again in the history of globalisation.

I for one am way to the left of 'liberal', and will be grateful if I'm not tarred with that brush. I'm a proud, upstanding, left-wing anarchist, further left even than your average communist party member. Where do I fit into the average American neo-con picture of the world?

China is doing the same thing with it's economic grow that America has done for years. America is just now opening it's eyes! Maybe the best thing America can do is help China with experience and not be critical!

if that's not unconstitutional, i don't know what is.

even the world net daily describes the act as giving him "near dictatorial powers" in the event of a national catastrophe.
http://www.wnd.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=55824
to sum it up, if some major event occured, the president would be allowed to label it a national catastrophe. if the election were near, the elections would be scrapped, and bush would continue to be president. congress would also be scrapped, bush and a few others would have complete power. also take note how the president is the only one who can declare the event a national catastrophe.

not only that, but if the constitution is scrapped, whose to say bush won't also take away all of our rights, maybe even declare martial law? who knows, maybe he'll even use wiretaps to root out those deemed unloyal. sorry if i sound paranoid, i'm just brainstorming

i really don't think this is a partisan issue, it's unconstitutional no matter what way you look at it.

They simply say "I have an extra $XX per month". Factor in the devalued dollar and the interest on US debt, then you really lose far more than you gain. Too bad neo-cons can't see past the smoke and mirrors.

Is there something I am missing here?

Who support Bush ? The "christian right"

What is their history besides burning people alive and advovating for the whipping of mentally ill slaves who wanted to run away ?

What have this love group of Jesus got in mind for us next other than the blind suport of Bush who is actually likely to bring an end to mankind

But don't worry - this brings the magical jesus back and so you see if you ignore the conflict of interest and the need for meds the christian support of Bush makes sense - to some


But other than Bush what have they in mind for mankind next ?

the last twenty eight years? If our values and morals are going down the tubes wouldn't it be reasonable to say it's from republican leadership? Where is the rule of law? Where is the personal accountability? Where is the fiscal responsibility?

on terror? Over a hundred billion a year on war to stop terrorism, while six full years after nine-eleven anyone can still walk across our borders. What's wrong with this picture?

Does this explain why neo-conservative fiscal policies have always been a dismal failure? Their priorities are 180 out of sync with reality.

clearly, it's only "disgusting" when liberals are doing it... hahaha

and did you notice all the questions that are asking about "what if we applied the liberal ideas to the wildfire on here"... wonder where they got that idea for the question?

just one (AND CITE YOUR SOURCE). i've never seen any liberal say that. it truly seems to be just another fabricated lie. if the right truly is the party of values, if they can't come up with any source, will they apologize for the lie? i guess we'll see

p.s. no "they've never said it, but they've implied it by . . . [being against the iraq war] [wanting the troops home] [not wanting to bomb any country we can] etc.". i'm not looking for implications. how would you feel if i called you a war lover because you support the iraq war? i'm sure you wouldn't like it. no implications. it's not reliable, and the implication is subjectively judged. ONLY FACTS
