it’s ok by me – the further they get those feet stuck in their mouths the better.

The public, and the next generation of voters, are watching.

One might say “COWARD”

Another “CHICKENSHIT”

Yet another “AKSKEEERT”

And finally “GHOUL”

Who do you think won the All American Presidential forum debate at Baltimore’s Morgan State University? —-> http://www.youpolls.com/details.asp?pid=604

Huh? Just who did they ask, when the State Dept has said they can’t investigate properly in Iraq due to security concerns or some crap?

State: “Did you shoot those Iraqis?”
Blackwater: “Uhh… no?”
State: “Good enough for me. Case closed”

Hannity, Limbaugh et al = definitely hypocrites;

their dittoheads/parrots = animals with a capacity for mimicry, and nothing more.

Yes, Nouri, they are SO eager for “unity” they’re blowing each other up about it every chance they get.

This has got to be the most ignorant statement you have ever posted here.
Sheesh

Innocent people died from Bush’s torture policy (torture is illegal by US law, and the death penalty if someone dies from torture )
I hope you stick to your principles stated and support impeachment and trial for Bush and those who implimented his policy of torture.

What am I saying? You have no principles, because you are a hypocrite.

The surge is working – give it more time 4.62 % (93)

It’s too early to tell – wait and see 0.74 % (15)

Not enough progress – begin troop withdrawal 5.86 % (118)

It’s a failure – pull the troops out now 88.78 % (1789)

Brilliant! Ballot stuffing in action.

Whoa whoa whoa. The government most certainly does NOT have the authority to stop people from eating donuts. I completely agree with ron on this one. Since when is it the gov’ts job to make sure seniors eat healthy? I own my body, I decide what to put in it. I don’t need the gov’ts input. This is the definition of freedom.

Why do you think we are having to go to other sources (countries) to finance the spending that our government is doing? Could it be that the amount being spent on this “war,” not to mention other outlays, is far more than the tax revenues brought in from working Americans?

One war, with one country, is forecast to end up costing trillions of dollars. We’ve been fighting in Iraq for 4 1/2 years with no end in sight. Should we also decide to invade Iran, you can tack on another 5 to 10 years and another several trillion dollars.

You think the debt we owe can be paid off in 11 years, at the current tax rate, before my 7 year old daughter enters the work force? When do you expect the cost of this “war” to be paid for, and how?

You think they’ll just be able to walk away from the huge national debt being created by this administration? Don’t forget, the “conservatives” got rid of the option for individuals declaring bankruptcy and getting off scot-free. It’s even more true for an entire nation.

At some point, we’re all going to suffer, either through the collapse of the economy or an inability to maintain even the basic infrastructure of the country because of this debt. Your contention is ludicrous.

Let me ask you another question:

I am making two assumption here; One, that you are married or have a live-in “Significant Other” and Two, that you are a member of NRA or a gun enthusiast.

If the above are correct, how would your “SO” react if you spent 31% of your total annual household income on guns and ammunition? And was running your household into debt and not able to afford the other basics for your family, such as insurance, medical care, proper food and education?

Would enjoy seeing your response.

The whole idea that our children will “suffer” for fiscal excess today is a false argument.

Perhaps you don’t realize the price you are paying for our debt because you have become so used to it.

In fiscal year 2006, we (the United States government) paid $406 BILLION dollars in INTEREST on our national debt. That’s an average of about $1,333 for every man, woman, and child in our country — or well over $5,000 for a family of four (on average, of course — rich pay more, poor pay less). If we didn’t have this debt, we could be spending this money on something else, or lower taxes for everyone.

Your tax burden has included this interest for so long, no wonder you don’t think you are “suffering” — you’ve gotten accustomed to it. But I sure see it. And it’s getting worse.

I don’t thank the “Lord” for anything. Sorry, but there has yet to be presented to mankind any evidence of any of the thousands upon thousands of deities mankind has attributed the turnings of the workings of the world to. None. Nada. Zip. Zilch. Sorry, but a couple of books, and some folks saying something is so absolutely does NOT make it so. The absolute arrogance in thinking that one mythology that is utterly unprovable is “right” while other, also unprovable mythologies are “wrong” is simply staggering. It is an insult to all of our ancestors who died worshipping what THEY believed in, which most assuredly differed from what WE (modern mankind) believes in. I certainly don’t thank the “Lord” for the benefit of free speech.

I do, however, thank our Founding Fathers, in their immense wisdom (yet flawed humanity as well). I thank all of the men and women who have sacrificed their precious little time, their collectively prodigious minds, and those who have spilt their lifeblood to keep the concept of free speech alive.

I thank those who work to maintain those freedoms by living up to the ideal of those freedoms, not those who roll over and give those liberties away for a little bit of (temporary) security.

I thank those who exhibit control over their fears, not those who give in to them.

I thank the brave men and women who stand up to tyranny when and where it happens, not those who cave in to authoritarians, or finally stand up only after it is too late.

I thank those who honor their oaths of office, and protect us from all enemies foreign and DOMESTIC. Those who do not honor such oaths deserve nothing but my scorn.

I do not thank the “Lord” for anything. I’ll stick to thanking those who’ve actually earned my thanks.

Sure it is. The effect of their free speech is reduced and diminished by being relocated miles away from a politician’s speech.
