Politics - 8 November 2007

I live in a neighborhood with many sub prime homes and in my opinion are low class people. They have moved in and the once great school system is already struggling. Now I hear the government talking about letting them stay and fixing their mistake and actually offering a better deal than people who were responsible have gotten.

Why do we reward the losers and punish the responsible people in this country?

If you could give him some examples maybe he'd change it to something more humorous.

First she has NO experience to run a country.... Has never even run a business?

She wants to bring about socialism. That is bad for America and is NOT what this country was founded on, was it?

She wants big government to control the corporate world. She wants to force small business, the back bone of this country, to provide so much free service for employees that it would literally put them out of business. Can you afford a $7.00 basic hamburger from McDonalds?

She also has no free and independent thought. Did you catch her at the last debate? Even the other Dem candidates attacked her for her inability to answer a simple question about drivers licenses for illegal immigrants. Is this not a fear to you?

And so what does she do? Throws out the gender card! Whine... you’re picking on me because I am a woman! Doesn’t that see to be childish for a World Leader?

I've been watching Ben Bernake speak to Congress on the mortgage crisis and all I have heard is that the dollar is falling because of this administrations rising of the debt and Iraq, etc, but they say we should start investing in education, healthcare and transportation and somehow that will somehow lower the debt. They never have offered any plans on how to cut back on spending that I have heard. Have you? And what is your overall opinion on the mortgage crisis.

My dad possesses a lot of wisdom. He knows more about religion and homosexuality than I do. He keeps winning the arguments/debates. But his opposition of gay marriage comes from his religious beliefs. Question is, can anyone give me a really good and valid argument that's in support of gay marriage?

If so, then you should be absolutely ashamed of yourself.
For ruining the United States of America. That's why.
For brainwashing the Christain Right. For money hawking
checks from Big Cooperations. For playing the war card,
on innocent victims and lives, for the sake of personal gain.
(OIL). For encouraging racial discord, taking finances
from public services, for making the rich even richer.
And the list goes on and on. Now if you are a Republican,
that stands for something good, and can show me what it is
about Conservatism that is so nice. I will give you the
best answer, not once but twice. Stay tuned. Best
answer wins. Are you a Republican ?

Every nation has one, every several hundred years or so....and generally, the results are healthy. This nation has never once had a single national uprising outside of the Civil War.

With Corporations, media systems, and government ever-encroaching on every aspect of our lives.....don't you all just get sick of the same crap every day?

The American dream, has been outsourced and removed from the American populace. Once, we were taught to go into business for ourselves and not only create income...but create and further on our own personal growth. Now, we're just taught to be automotons in a cubicle. Did you get the memo?

As the American empire falls, do you think this nation is going to just slowly decline? Or do you think the spirits of Americans will finally be reawakened and changes will be made?

Let's look at the facts people, unless a change is made, America will disintegrate.

Opinions? Just keep it civil, and intelligent, no propaganda please.

Maybe as a result of prior civilization's experiments, contamination, genetic engineerings. Were our mythological Chimeras actually true creations of the Atlantis Era. Was the Earth impacted sinking Atlantis, creating a flood to exterminate all Chimeras and Quasimodos? How insensible and stubborn are our world leaders! How much political-ideological dreamers are their followers today? Answer any of these questions at your will.

Careful with the links, they are of sensitive nature.

This past Tuesday, Oregon voters defeated Measure 50. This ballot inititive would have raised cigarette taxes to help pay for healthcare for poor children and would have made the state eligible for matching funds from the US Congress. However this measure was defeated.

This tax was very similiar to what Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid have been proposing for the SCHIP program and Bush vetoed twice. Many of you on YA have said Bush must hate poor children because of this veto. With that said, do citizens of Oregon hate children as well because the in effect vetoed this tax as well.

I know it is not specifically in the Constitution, but it was my understanding it was pretty much there...would that sentence be expressing a personal point of view? Or is it a fact?

Is there a way I could state this concept without it being my opinion?
