Politics (Politics & Government) - 12 December 2007

The leftist argument to abortion and the death penalty makes more sense.They believe that an unborn baby is not fully human and that life starts at birth and NOT at conception.Their position on the death penalty is that a person who has killed IS a human that has fulfilled the requirements of birth. They also provide the fact that some INNOCENT people have been executed for crimes they did not commit. I personally do not agree with abortion but their stance makes more sense than the rightists.The rightists belive that life starts at conception. Life begins at conception and ends at death in their eyes.OK that's fair. But how can they justify killing a person who has committed a crime? Is that person no longer human because he/she did something wrong? How do you drive with a pro-life sticker on one side of your car and a pro-death sticker on the other side? It makes no sense to me.

when terrorists attack during an Obama or Clinton presidency, how fast will our president capitulate?

Since we know they won't stand up to the terrorists (besides launching a few missiles at training camps)...

Can Ron Paul Place or Show in the Iowa or New Hamphshire Derbys?

The Media Racing Form has Huckabee sprinting past Guliani and Romney around the second turn...does Ron Paul have the legs to finish in the money?

Will Ron Paul's common sense and integrity win out over the propaganda coming from the Corporate Media's horserace favorites?

"The latest National Intelligence Estimate has been greeted by a mixture of relief and alarm. As I have been saying all along, Iran indeed poses no quantifiable imminent nuclear threat to us or her neighbors. It is with much alarm, however, that we see the administration continue to ratchet up the war rhetoric as if nothing has changed.

Indeed nothing has changed from the administration's perspective, as they have had this latest intelligence report for some time. Only this week has it been made known to the public. They want it both ways with Iran. On the one hand, they discredit the report entirely, despite it being one of the most comprehensive intelligence reports on the subject..."

Why would Citizens stoop to thinking any politician hates kids?

The pre-socialized health care bill to pay for kids up to age 24 (huh? Oh yes!) with parents making over $80,000/year was once again vetoed by George Bush.

What part of a child growing up and being able to drive at age 16... (Libs have in the past wanted to allow them the right to vote as in when they turn 16) But adults are deemed "an adult" when they reach the age of 18...

But with the vetoed bill... Stipulations identify people living with their parents and covered under the plan until they reach 24 years old...

Is really goofy.

So identifying that 24-yr-old children are not children which normally fall into the category as being under 16... Where 16-18 year olds are actually young adults (we call them teenagers) therefore not needing to milk off mommy and daddy's $80,000/year income status...

Why do people, generally liberals, find this hard to comprehend?

I'm confused. Why are the Democrats bending to Bush, when Bush absolutely refuses to compromise on ANYTHING?

Bush is vetoing popular, bipartisan legislation.

Why should the Democrats bend for Bush's budget, where essential services for the AMERICAN people are cut in favor of war and corporations? Are they truly spineless?

I say if Bush won't compromise, then don't send him anything. Am I grossly wrong on this?

Heck, remember when the Republicans lost the majority a couple years ago? He DARED the democrats: if you don't support the war, you control the money.

That was a dare. Make the idiot eat his words. Yeah, I personally think Bush is the most incompetent president to ever be elected (twice). This is a true testament to failing schools if this is the best that American voters can come up with.

How many votes would the Democrats lose if they cut the funding for the war?

If the Democrats go through on their proposed cuts for funding the war and 200,000 government and contract employees are laid off, what would be the outcome in terms of loss of votes.

Not only would it affect the 200,000, but if bases are forced to shutdown operations throught the world, millions of other jobs on the military bases would be affected.

How many of you think that the Democrats are willing to lose millions of votes?

What say you?

Do you think that Democracy should give way to socialism in US?

Or at least socialist approaches to things that we as free Americans have the resonsibility to choose to do for ourselves? This seems to be some Democrats' approach to some major political issues.....

One last question: can you love your country if you are continually bashing it with false accusations?

9-11 was an inside job
the invasion of Iraq was illegal
Bush is a liar
Bush is a criminal
the constitution is being destroyed
NSA is listening to everyone
the Patriot Act destroyed the Bill of Rights

Let's face it: if you truly believed that everything on this list were true, you would be living in a gulag!

Yet, our lives are exactly the same as they were 10 years ago. Not a single discernable change in our day-to-day lives.

So aren't liberals just lying when they claim they love their country?
How many conservatives are dumb enough to buy it?

Liberals, if you are offended by this, would you be willing to defend the honor of the country you love against these false accusations? Would you at least be willing to be skeptical enough to ask for competent evidence whenever anyone attempts to denegrate her?
