why do you support him? what views of his do you share? dont you think that as America will be dealing with foreign countries alot now, that we should have a president that at least keeps up on current events? huckabee said 2 weeks after the emergency in Pakistan ended that the first priority should be too remove the emergency. he also issued a proven to be false statement that Pakistanis are sneaking across the border more than all other races. what do you think of this?

A war where we're winning and where we're always winning. It's never actually won but always in the process of being won.

We are always making progress. Never quite enough progress to end the war but always just enough progress to keep the war going.

Also, either the enemy or the objective always changes and then that's always been the enemy or the objective, and the previous enemy or objective was never the goal.

Abortion will be totally accepted along with same sex marriages. The world will then have no increase in population and the human race dies out. But I guess they can blame that on Bush also.
What do you think.

WHY?
THE ASSASSINATIONS
JFK, MLK, RFK and Malcolm X
"The cumulative effect of these assassinations is quite clear. They resulted in the death of the old Democratic Party and the birth of the new Jimmy Carter-Bill Clinton-Al Gore Democratic Party. ....
"Imagine if you can, that if in the mid-1980s, at the height of the GOP Revolution, Ronald Reagan, Pat Robertson, Newt Gingrich, and George Bush Sr., had all been assassinated in the space of five years. Would the Republicans and the media not suspect something more than coincidence or happenstance? Would their party and their causes be able to sustain the loss? Would Dan Quayle and Bob Dole have been able to pick up the baton? Would history not have been quite different? Certainly, the Democrats were not able to sustain the loss. Nothing comparable filled the gap, nothing even came close. So the constellation fell from the sky and without any pressure from the left, our public debate shifted slowly, inexorably to the right."

What would you say to someone who says The Constitution is not really relevant in 2008?

(This comment was made while in the middle of a discussion on the consistent loss of liberties since 2001.)

A town council meets. The unemployment rate is the same as the national average. It's a somewhat small town (pop<10000) and the economy is stable, though not milk and honey. I'm not sure if this is exactly how it happens, but play along.

A large retail chain wishes to build a store in the town. Doing so will ruin many local small businesses (Walmart vs Wilma's apparel). Some will have to shut down and others will have to fire workers. But, the new store will offer slightly more jobs than those fired.

Should they be allowed to do so? At the cost of local culture?

This is using the DOD's own numbers.

3901 Brave American Troops have died in Iraq as of today. "12 -29-07"
898 Brave American Troops have died in Iraq this year. The year is not over but we have set the record for troop deaths in a year. We have 3 days left so according to averages it will be 900 Brave Men and Women dead this year in Iraq.
Civilian deaths have gone from 8.5 per day in 2006 to 14 a day 2007 from IED's

So my question is... The Surge is working?

Does that make me a racist against blacks too?
According to a CERTAIN someone's arguement in here.. all us southerners vote Republican because we are racists.
I wonder why Im black, Conservative...and I dont buy that line of BS for a second.
Could It be I vote for the Candidate... and not for the Party?
and why dont many more blacks think as I do and vote for the MAN.... not the party?... I could care less if he is Dem or Republican... if he is the BEST man for the job overall.... he has my vote.
I think Dems do not EARN my vote....THEY EXPECT IT!
Of course.. it could be because Im not on welfare popping out babies, or playing race baiting games with OTHER ethnic groups to get a hand out for free in exchange for a VOTE!
Whats your take on this issue?

and why the yankee northeast and black people vote Democrat today?

It was obviously the complete opposite in the past.

Apparently, the Southern Strategy explanation that even the former Chairmen of the Republican Party, Ken Mehlen, admitted to, is not true.

Then what is?

Did all the Lincoln Republicans and their offspring move down South because it was too cold, and all the racist Democrats and their offspring move up north because it was too hot?

Explain the elections of 1948 and 1964. Why did southerners form their Dixiecrat Party in 1948 and why did they vote Republican in 1964?

During a recent discussion, a Friend suggested adding a 3rd House to Congress, consisting of Members elected by the Populace at-large. Admittedly, Whoever serves as President (or Vice-President) sort of tends to play this role in an informal way. However, is it time to formalize this role in American politics? if so, what should this Chamber be called? How would/should the number of Members in this new House effect Presidential (and Vice-Presidential) elections?
