Its come to a point where if you dislike the Bush admin you are a liberal.. If you dislike anyones answer to anything they are a liberal.. What wrong with having an open mind and caring for others outside of the country you reside in..

If you love money and love death.,. are a narrow minded bigot and godless/spiritless then i will call you a conservative...

i know which one i would rather be called..

for the true meaning of liberal go to this site

If all oil was to cease millions would starve, infrastructures would crumble, governments would collapse and world chaos would ensue. Is this not worth fighting for? Just to make it clear I am against the Iraq War but do not believe we are there for that reason. Just do not agree with peope who say oil is not worth fighting for.

We're looking for specific, verifiable statements that he has made and the proof that he was wrong. If you answer with generalities, name calling or cursing, then you'll expose yourself as a lightweight on YA. OK, you're up.

Would Hillary Clinton be a good foreign affairs President and how would she deal with China? Would she be like Bush is now and lead this nation into war? Has anyone asked her any hard questions on China and has she answered them?

we hear the horror stories from Canada and England... but are there horror stories here too?

I actually know people in this position personally:

http://www.redorbit.com/news/health/613741/costly_drugs_force_lifedeath_decisions/index.html?source=r_health

and people are even going outside of the U.S., due to the costs:

http://www.forbes.com/business/2006/10/25/health-medical-tourism-biz-cx_1026oxford.html

these are things that people talk about happening in Canada... but they seem to happen here too?

http://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/76295.php

and that's not even looking at the stats of infant mortality rates or average life span:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_infant_mortality_rate
https://www.cia.gov/library/publications/the-world-factbook/rankorder/2102rank.html

I'm not impressed... and all this at a much greater cost:

Lapel pins are one thing; Since 9/11, the Bush administration has wrapped itself in the flag, as it rode roughshod over the constitution to extend it's executive power and steamroller the Dems. into submission - squeal 'unpatriotic' and it invariable gets what it wants.

Condi suffered as a child due to the loss of childhood friends in the famous Birmingham bombing. She's a partner-in-crime in the present administration and pushing for the NWO. Now SHE's accountable for loss of innocent lives. Rant all you want to..I welcome it!

I think you know the site I am talking about. The one that called a four-star general a traitor. Anyway, I tried to ask the following question:

Does (that website) help or hurt the Democratic party?

Why is it that is you believe in Global Warming you are on the left and if you deny it you're on the right?

Regardless of whether or not you think it exists, doesn't conserving energy and making the air cleaner make sense? It benefits everyone!

I don't see how some people are against this!

If Libby did not commit perjury to cover it up, would Cheney be in prison by now? Or would he have been exonerated?

I haven't heard such moral honesty from a world leader since Kofi Annan told us the Iraq war was illegal under international law.

Admittedly, if one assumes that states will generally prefer the status quo or embrace relatively benign political intentions, then nuclear balance will not exert much influence on international affairs…Three types of political relations might animate the future nuclear balance: multilateral and multipolar interactions and the conventionalization of nuclear war
