Both sides, kids, the name calling and hate is just getting worse. Does anyone really think that by calling someone on the other side of the aisle names will convince them to vote your way? Because, honestly, isn't that what it's about? Convincing others to vote like you do so your man/woman wins? Hate and name calling just energizes the base of the other side and makes them MORE likely to vote against you. It's about numbers. Does anyone see that the name calling reinforces everything the other side thinks about you? Or is it just me?

Are Bush supporters so frail of ego that they can't take criticism of their number one guy?

This question was inspired by the countless posts from Liberals who presume that all Conservatives simply must get their beliefs from right-wing radio or FoxNews . The ideology that it must be impossible for anyone to even have Conservative beliefs without there being a culprit involved . A Limbaugh, a Drudge, an O'Reilly, a Hannity . . . .. UTTER NONSENSE .
Then, in an effort to further diminish the veracity of a Conservative view, some liberals will tread upon us personally by proclaiming that we're all NASCAR fans, or hillbillies, trailer-trash, and uneducated . BTW, on a really funny note, they also claim that Conservatives are all corporate people and have all the money, while at the same time claiming that they themselves are poor. . . . . . so how does that jive with who does and does not live in a trailer ? LOL . And how does living in a trailer translate into being either Conservative or Liberal ? LOL.

Do Liberals Understand Conservatives ?

"Buffett cited himself, the third-richest person in the world, as an example. Last year, Buffett said, he was taxed at 17.7 percent on his taxable income of more than $46 million. His receptionist was taxed at about 30 percent."

What should the GOP do to relieve more of this undue burden from the shoulders of the rich?

ALSO, what percentage did a person making $75K have to pay for 2006?

It seems to me, that it already has. Bush's poll numbers
have been rather steady at best. Due to Bhutto's
assassination, the feeling towards the war in Iraq will
get worse. And according to Ron Paul, we should try
to pull out, and get out of their affairs. Period. Of course
Hillary Clinton's bid will go even higher. She was right,
the entire time. But you GOPer's did not get that.
Saying that there is tremendous progress in Iraq, when
they are truly on the verge of a civil war. Given the
current circumstances. President Yar Adua, was shocked
and saddened by what happened. He has a failed policy
just like Bush, which means no momentum for the
Republican Party politically. Seems like all this man,
Bush, touches turns to mush, not gold. Will Bhutto's
death hurt Republicans chance for redemption ?
Or the White House ? Best answer wins. ~~~

I am emmigrating to Australia my visa has just been granted along with my girlfriends and two children, i am very sad to be leaving as i love my countries history, i have a nice house, good car and good job. However i feel i have to leave this country as i cannot stay here knowing both my grandads fought in the second world war for our culture to be destroyed by the liberal and multnationalists ivory towerists, they are using political correctness as a way of destroying are culture and taking away our freedom to be proud to be British. The only thing that makes me smile by leaving this country is this though, that the liberals will be more sorry than i ever could be when the muslims take control of this country and they have to behave as the muslims want the to then they will realise that be destroying their own country they have in fact destroyed themselves

In one instance, 30 hospitals refused to treat an 89 year old lady in Japan.

In another case, 20 hospitals refused to treat a pregnant woman.

They both died.

Is that what kind Hillary is trying to give to Americans?

As of '95, Norma McCorvey is now a staunch anti-abortionist. She was used by various lawyers and shadowy feminist groups in order to challenge a law an anti-abortion law in Texas.

What does that say about killing of pre-born babies, when one of their greatest figureheads has repented and acknowledged her part (even though she was a pawn and never had an abortion)?

The news article this morning about Americans worrying over more than just Iraq is a very liberal point of view by Yahoo. The poll actually says that more Democrats were polled than Republicans. I am a Democrat, but i sure didnt fair well under a Clinton Administration, and have done much better under a Bush Adm. I do not want a Nationalized Health Care plan. I have freinds in Canada who have Socialized Medicine and they hate it. I do not trust Hilliary, Barak or John to make my decisions about health care for me. Would you leave health care to a vote of the people? For those Americans who cannot afford health care, the taxpayors are already paying for your health care. Everyone who seeks medical attention cannot be refused. Yahoo should give both sides of an issue instead of being one sided all the time.

"Police Begin Fingerprinting on Traffic Stops"

If you're caught speeding or playing your music too loud, or other crimes for which you might receive a citation, Green Bay police officers will ask for your drivers license and your finger. You'll be fingerprinted right there on the spot. The fingerprint appears right next to the amount of the fine.

While it states you can refuse, how many will?
Is this a way to start on identifying those NOT in the felon, military, gun owners camps?

Or is it a crime to state a fact? Why was my similar question deleted? Don't you want to hear the truth? Muslims explored North America at least 300 years before the discovery of the New World by Christopher Columbus, according to many researchers. Dr. Barry Fell, a noted New Zealand archaeologist and linguist of Harvard University showed detailed existing evidence in his work, "Saga America" that Muslims were not only in the Americas before Columbus arrived, but very active there as well. Remnants of mosques found in America and today over 500 city names in America were named after the Muslims. What happened to them?
