Politics - 7 November 2007

Is it the fact that the USD is reaching record lows on the international currency market and losing hegemony?
Is it the fact that the national debt has surpassed $9 trillion?
Is it the fact that personal income is being outpaced by inflation?
Is it because the financial sector is collapsing from losses in mortgage loans, which are likely to top $250 billion?
Is it because the cost of energy will reach a choke point within a few months?
Or is it the rosy data supplied by the government, low unemployment and low inflation, that proves to you that the economy is booming?
When did we start having the fox guard the hen house in the USA?

Does this make me a sexest?

Margaret Thatcher was an unflinching and principled world leader. During an uncertain and dangerous time in history, she stood strong with Ronald Reagan and together they defeated Communism. Hillary Clinton is a two-term New York senator and a former first lady who survived the scandals of her husband’s tumultuous presidency. Whenever challenged or out maneuvered, she typically plays the victim. They are two very different women, indeed.

I believe he will, but would like to see the opinions of others.

They have creative ways of bullying, such as name calling, sneering at progressive ideals, attempting to discredit the nature of liberals. When it happens, it is done in a very hateful fashion, and it is continuing to escalate at an exponential rate. Why?

if a leader makes a decision backed by a vast majority of the people he or she leads, shouldn't he or she hold them to their original decision and pursue it to its finallity?

I want to understand the reasons people like him. Debating points are: The worlds view on us. The War. Falling Dollar. To me those are all negatives, but someone please give me some positives.

Seems like the "violation" notices have been getting a bit stupid these days. If someone reports you, shouldn't you have the right to know who did it ? Or is the YA keyboard snitch system the way to go ?

If you have been UNJUSTLY violated, I say it's time to DEMAND Yahoo Answers to pony up the facts, and we all should flood the home office with email saying so ! Who is ready for the effort ?

I can see him getting onto the ballot post-hillary around 2016 or 2020. he's next in line when it comes to the Bush family. Plus, he's the governor of a heavily populated state in Florida similar to how his brother, George W, was governor of another highly populated state in Texas.

It seems to me that there is a danger people may decide that republican democracy is just not working anymore. Politics today are less partisan than they are nihilistic and fatalistic.

If this goes too far, might people embrace a charismatic sociopath bent on dismantling our constitution?

When Brian first appeared as the top contributor, he was way ahead of Beach Bum, so why wasn't he given the honor much earlier?

Was it because her viewpoints are much more in line with their own liberal ideology than the true top contributors?

Is this more evidence of their attempt to make the lib viewpoint seem more mainstream than it really is?

This, and the difference in the way they handle the violations and suspensions of cons' accounts in comparison to lib accounts?

It's time for the gloves to come off in the war on terror in Israel. It's time to think about an 'ultimate' solution to the Palestinian question. Brutal measures are needed now in the war for Israel's survival. The time has come for the extirpation of the Palestinian sub-humans.

They say its liberal media. That means Foxnews is liberal media? On one hand, they use foxnews to link their talking points, and on the other hand when even foxnews polls show 32% approval of Bush, then they say its liberal media.

You agree they are in denial that Bush and the iraq war are both highly unpopular now?
