I was watching the former PM on TV last night - he is selling his new book - I have his first book I am not sure I will buy the second one or not -

But I was really glad that he did not commit troops to Iraq - Look at the mess

What about other Cdn's still glad about that ?

It looks like GW vetoed the defense budget to protect the interests of corporate contractors at the expense of U.S. troops.

Why does Rudy get a free pass on all his mistakes on 9/11 and all the lives those mistakes cost us?

The fire fighters haven't forgiven him for the faulty radios and lack of organization... The politicians haven't forgiven him for putting his "emergency bunker" in WTC7 or for wandering the streets aimlessly with camera crew in tow... and the citizens of New York haven't forgiven him for using their dead brothers, sisters, fathers, mothers, and children as a platform to try to hide his failures by making them look like successes or stopping the search for bodies once the armored trucks full of gold were done rolling out...

So why does the rest of the country think he's so great when the people he was responsible to protect and govern hate his guts with such passion?

If so, then don't they really run the USA? Isn't this considered to be a Zionist Occupational Government? Isn't this what the 'crazies' were telling us 30+ years ago about the Zionists?

No question laws needed changing, horrific and terrible injustices were commonplace before 1970....

Now that the laws have long been changed, civil rights leaders like Sharpton and Jackson consistently and aggresively pervert Dr King's message- "to unite the races, to forgive, to heal wounds"; Dr King's message is God's message. I won't argue King, the man, wasn't flawed, it's his message that we honor; that's what it is all about.

The laws have long been changed and it's time to cease inciting racial conflict. Sure, racisim exists and needs to end but race baiters prolong the conflict, instead of healing.

Wouldn't it be a tribute to Dr King to proclaim Sharpton, Jackson and all other opportunists to be silenced and politicaly excommunicated on the forthcoming Dr King holiday?

And why does everyone forget Reagan's 1986 amnesty bill ended up granting more than 2.5 million illegal immigrants amnesty? "Ultimately, some 2.7 million people were granted amnesty, and many who were not stayed anyway, forming the nucleus of today's unauthorized population" (http://www.nytimes.com/2006/05/24/opinion/24meese.html ).

Smog is bad. How can anyone visit L.A. in July and not see that we are doing some horrible stuff to the earth? Litter is bad. There is a floating island of trash in the Pacific Ocean the size of Texas. For real.
Conservatives get red in the face yelling about "environmental whackos" and how it's their right to drive a Hummer just for the sake of thumbing their nose at liberals. You can pay some sceintists off with oil money and convince them to say that global warming isn't real, but you can't ignore the facts: pollution is bad, and there is no denying it is real. Why not make an effort to cut down on it?

If we did not go to war with the taliban, and later with Hussein, more american civilians lives would be lost, correct? Probably a larger number than the troops that have died so far. So why are we complaining? I am not downplaying the value of the soldiers lives, I think it is a terrible thing when you have to lay down your life in the face of someones hatred. But Which is the better alternative, massive attacks on our soil or theirs?

Many say that because of Barack Obama's inexperience, he will be less likely to win. Don't you think that his "inexperience" makes him a "regular guy" that we can all relate to, so that he maybe will understand more what this country needs?

When I was a kid, all the talk was about the hole in the ozone layer and how we had to outlaw hairspray and freon air conditioners in cars. Now that those worshipping at the altar of the Church Of Gore say that we've pumped all these thick gasses into the air, will that be what finally fixes that awful ozone hole?
