Politics - 31 October 2007

I always thought Dean would have been great.

Sadly, the fickle dems turned away from after his infamous 'scream'. The they went the route of the party establishment and chose a boring nominee in the form of Kerry.

If Dean were in it now, would you choose him over H. Clinton?

You can't argue about the profound effect Christianity has on this world...and the effect has been for the GOOD.
Schools, missions, charity work, etc...

What have atheists done except screw up a good thing?

She's so far above her fellow democrats. Even is she runs into a few problems, she's still double digits ahead of Obama and Edwards.

Can anything stop her?

I am an atheist. I don't believe that there is a (big G) God or a (little g) god or a goddess or a flying spaghetti monster for that matter. Yet I live in a country that has adopted "In God WE trust" as MY national motto.

The first amendment to the Constitution - the primary specific right granted in the bill of rights - promises me that my Congress shall pass no law establishing a national religion, yet they violated this promise to make the idea that all Americans trust in one and the same God the central thematic idea of our shared rallying cry.

The truth is, however, I don't trust in God. Neither do the Hindus who live here or the neo-pagans or the Buddhists or Seiks or Shintus or native Americans who practice the old religions. So I'm wondering, would Christians be offended if a majority of Americans decided to change to a secular motto such as "In reason we trust, because there may not be a God?" Wouldn't this be in keeping with our first amendment rights?
Just wondering.

I am so tired of reading about Obama's blackness. We can just look at him and see he is bi-racial, so why is it that YAHOO's (Yahoo's Presidential Campaign Obama" first sentence about him will be that he is "the son of a black father from Kenya and a white woman?" What in the world does that have to do with his campaign? Am I the only one that finds this rascist?

The long-term consequences of the Viet Nam war are virtually negligable. Most Americans today couldn't find Viet Nam on the map.

OTOH, the long-term consequences of the Iraq war will be substantial and will likely last for generations because of Iraq's enourmous oil reserves and it's location in the middle east.

Do you think Bush fully apreciated the delicate complexity of what he was doing when he ordered the invasion and subsequent occupation of Iraq?

not think it's ok to work together to provide health care for all of us together? We doing other stuff together, like schools, police, fire depts., roads, mass transit, public universities like the UC system or the UNC system, national/state parks, etc., etc. What's the big deal about being so hyper-individualistic?

I applauded the verdict. It is a shame that you have this. It is also funny that I saw on here were "Liberals" hate Soldiers, then I see this...

The tree stumps are about 7000 years old, how is mankind's use of fossil fuels and power plants responsible for weather warm enough for these trees to grow in the first place?
Doesn't that pretty well convince you that Al Gore is an idiot?
