Politics - 30 November 2007

Some white woman feminists believe that more women should vote for hillary clinton.
More black civil rights leaders believe that more blacks should vote for barrack obama.
Is it right to beg for people to support their group or just look at who is best for the country

The change in mood perceived by Democratic lawmakers comes as one of Congress’ most vocal war critics, Rep. John P. Murtha (D-Pa.), returned from a trip to Iraq and told reporters Thursday that “the surge is working”.

Should be pretty interesting when troops start returning just prior to the 2008 election with Republican candidates saying "We supported the troops COMPLETELY" and Democratic candidates mumbling "we supported the troops but not their mission."

If we'd have listened to this guy, we would have pulled out and Osama bin Laden would be crowing to the world that he defeated America.
Now we are winning because we "stay the course" and Al Queida is destroyed in Iraq.
Is Sen. Murtha happy we are winnig? Or is he bitter about being so very wrong about wishing for America's defeat.

you can list to them everything from illegal immigration crisis, to health care high cost lack of insurance affordability crisis, to budget and trade deficits, excessive borrowing from other countries, to hike in gas prices over the past several years, to outsourcing of jobs in such gigantic numbers, the number of high school drop outs going up, to the fact that real wages of americans have been on the decline for a few years now..... Now, clearly these are facts that can be easily verified by one who cares about the truth, but there are some people that you say this to, and they will go out of their way and say that this is all just a coincidence and that the totality of these issues is does not have a common thread, or .....they may outright deny that none of it is true, and that gas prices are really not that high, and that illegals are not really a problem, and that americans should in fact embrace this brave new world where their jobs are going to china and india.

I hear alot of talk about how Iran is planning to make an atom bomb, but It's been crossing my mind alot lately. It may take a few years for them to perfect it, but What will the U.S. and the World do if the Iranians actually do make a nuclear bomb? Will we actually do anything about it?

Right now Hillary has half of the poll votes for the primary. Obama and John Edwards less than or above 20%. However in survey polls it shows that Obama and Edwards would beat republican candidates in the same polls it shows that Hillary Clinton is trailing mccain, guiliani, huckabee, and thompson. She also has a higher disapproval rating and approval rating unlike edwards and obama.

America today is very different from America say, 50 years ago. Suddenly the Vietnam War happens, and everybody in America wimps out and we never finish a war again. Gen. G.S. Patton once said, "Americans love a winner, and will not tolerate a loser. That's why we have never and will never lose a war." That was in 1945 though. Now the majority of Americans don't care about anybody except their country, their lives, and their livlihood. Its all a competition for that promotion, that college scholorship, the team's MVP award, and its all out of spite and bragging. Why?

Is the joining of Big Government and Big Business a threat to your personal liberty? Could it be that global corporations don't need to control your religion or your speech or your guns? They don't need to send obvious signs like having thugs in big boots beat you down or having black helicopters kidnap your family members in the night. Maybe all they need to do is buy off our politicians, send our jobs overseas, force both parents to work (instead of one) at lower paying jobs, set up illegal trade policies, put only Chinese made trash in our stores, and convince us that at the end of a 10 hour work day it's whoever buys the most toys that wins?

41. George H.W. Bush- 1 term, 42.Bill Clinton- 2 terms, 43.George W. Bush- 2 terms
44. Hillary Clinton?

if Hillary Clinton wins then it would be another 4 years of this country being runned by just two families for over 20+ years.

im not an elephant or a donkey but i think this country is in need of new leadership without the name Bush or Clinton in it

I don't mean the dictionary liberals....I mean the strawman creation that the right wing talk show bozos are always going on about. Are there really so many people with real power, position and authority that 'hate America', want to raise your taxes, don't 'support' the troops and all that other jazz to actually be some kind of threat? Most people hold moderate, live and let live opinions and nobody wants to impose either socialisim or communisim on the United States. I think it's a phoney issue. The 'liberals' are anyone not fully on board with the Bush Junta! Wadda' 'ya think?

Is the game of Monopoly being played on a global geopolitical scale?
Are the wealthy using their vast resources to attain even greater wealth at a faster rate possible than the average worker? What impact does the game have on various players as the game progresses? What does the world look like after the game is fully played out?

FISA laws, torture, outing a covert agent, much we don't yet know about, etc. etc. If Bush has not been indicted by the time he leaves office, can the next Prez give him a "blanket pardon" that would cover any future convictions? Bush's father did it with some Iran-Contra figures, but they, although not yet convicted, had been indicted.

For those that know his message, (a message that is not knew) it is easy to support the view; however, often it seems to me that Paul has been seen as a kook because he brings forth ideas that are not well understood by the masses while not being charismatic enough to drive home the point.

To those that only are hearing the ideals for the first time, they see this man who is a not the best of speakers suddenly saying we should get rid of the Fed or Department of Education and just assume he is a kook.

The fact is, whether one agrees or disagrees, there is an intelligent view to his positions that when presented well makes a lot of sense as to why one would logically come to those conclusions. Paul's presentation of those positions has not been great.

Will it take a much more charismatic speaker to accomplish real change?
