The disgausting dispicable KKK and neo-nazi mob call blacks sub-human and backward. How do black culture respond? Rap videos with rappers throwing money at strippers and dragging women around on dog leads.

Look at someone like Barak Obama, he is the embodyment of respectability: honest, down to earth, sucessful and well spoken. Doesnt the black community need to promote him as a role model. instead of the idiot rappers or demogogue preachers?

Yesterday, the U.S. House of Representatives passed an energy bill that included a $21 billion tax on domestic energy producers. The Senate is now considering the same bill!
RAISE ENERGY PRICES, INCLUDING
HOME HEATING OIL AND GASOLINE
Taxes on energy production actually work against energy security and increase imports, as domestically produced energy becomes more expensive than imported supplies. Policies that act as disincentives for oil and natural gas production will ultimately hurt businesses and consumers by driving supply down and prices up.
DECREASE DOMESTIC ENERGY PRODUCTION
Increasing taxes on U.S. companies will effectively ensure that they will have less money available to reinvest in exploration, new technology and refining improvements that will help to meet more of our present and future energy needs with domestic energy supplies.
GRANT A SUBSIDY TO FOREIGN ENERGY PRODUCERS
If Congress places additional taxes on domestically-produced energy, the net effect will be the creation of a subsidy for foreign competitors. Congress should be taking steps to help make American businesses more viable in the world market ? not less.

Do people understand that they are sending US money/resources over to china with a big red bow on it? Are people aware of the US trade deficit? How can people pretend to love their country and then sell it out by shopping at walmart?

At what point would you stand up and do something about it? When the top 1% controls 90% of the wealth and you make 3 dollars an hour? The income inequality has been growing for decades. How bad does it have to get and what will you do?

A new analysis by WorldPublicOpinion.org of 11 recent international polls conducted around the world shows widespread and growing concern about climate change. Large majorities believe that human activity causes climate change and favor policies designed to reduce emissions.

In most countries, majorities see an urgent need for significant action. For example, a recent poll for the BBC by GlobeScan and the Program for International Policy Attitudes (PIPA) found that majorities in 15 out of 21 countries felt that it was necessary to take “major steps, starting very soon” to address climate change. In the other six countries polled, opinion was divided over whether “major” or “modest steps” were needed. Only small minorities thought no steps were necessary.

Do you agree that we need to increase our efforts, or are you in the small minority that feel no steps are necessary, and why?

Ahmadinejad: rock star in rural Iran
http://news.yahoo.com/s/csm/20071207/ts_csm/opopulist

My words:

Prior to the Iraq invasion, 80% of Iranians were totally against Ahmadinejad. Now, he draws standing room only supporters to his appearances.

Is this a direct result of Bush's foreign policy?

Would you vote for an atheist for President?
If you agreed with him on other issues? What if the choice were a white atheist Republican who opposed abortion vs. a pro-choice, african-american Christian Dem?

He's too young now but after watching both High School Musicals, he seems to be one to keep his head in the game which is very important in a post 9/11 world, and he also says we can bet on him being the type of guy to means what he says. He also got Vanessa Hudgens to send him dirty pictures of herself. If this doesn't speak to his diplomatic skills, I don't know what will.

With warlords all over the world massacring people who don't agree with them, why did the US parade into Iraq and pretend that the purpose was to give "freedom" to Iraqis? Is anyone still pretending that this had anything to do with morality and if so why are they still so incredibly ignorant?

very often the first answers to any question which tend to expose the corrupt nature of the current administration are meant to degrade the question and/or it's message !! also i noticed that they are supposedly kind of new on YA or they are back to YA with a different name in order to play dirty psychological game! afterall what else should we expect from these groups of people who support the present corrupt administration? that is a true representation!

No, the real reason, not what CNN is telling us. Maybe not even what Senator Kennedy is telling us, cover up... Because they didn't even show them to any of the committees (Senate Committees) designed to oversee what the CIA does in OUR name.
"We the People" are responsible for what's done in our names, by our country. We have to keep America Free.

forums? ...Just wondering. I would think it'd be sort of like Fox News to many liberal minded people; they just don't watch it or visit the website b/c of believing in the conservative bias.

But I constantly see posters on here writing about how liberal Yahoo is...

A lot of the troubles in the Middle-East have their roots as far back as the Eisenhower administration and beyond. The USA emerged as a world leader after WWII. That gives the US about 60 years of experience in shaping world affairs.
Isn't that enough experience to be able to design foreign policy that doesn't blow up in the next generation's face?
