Reply to OIL SHALE, What is America waiting for? in Consumer Issues JoeUser Forums

First off wikipedia is a site that anyone can say anything for a definition for any word, not a good source, Period, for anyone.

No, terrorists should be held and tried by the miliary only. Do you seriously want an islamic terrorist to have access to our civil courts? The Constitution does not apply to foreign terrorists. i am not the one who is saying that. The supreme court did and declared the Kangaroo court set up for them

Please, do tell and remember to link proof. Sure MM. Here is what Wikipedia say (i am sure anyone can go there and read it: "Between 1945 and 1948, new laboratories were constructed near Pittsburgh. A synthetic ammonia plant Louisiana, Missouri (Missouri Ordnance Works) was transferred from the Army to the program in 1945. The plant was converted into a coal hydrogenation test facility. By 1949 the plant could produce 200 barrels of oil a

There is no dictatorship at "home", not even close. If this is stuff you actually believe, well then.... tell that to the most conservative GOP supporter, the one i rarely agree with except in his stand against the creeping authoritarian presidency ..... William Safire.

they have already upset their left loony base. you would be more accurate saying "their far-left loony base". and i would agree with you 100%. as danielost said, the loonies are not a Dem monopoly. they are everywhere. leave them alone, they have their own loony world. Doesnt that prove

They believe terrorists should have full rights and access to our civil court system as a citizen does. So you just take people and say they are terrorists and that is it? if they are really terrorists, what is the problem of proving that in a REAL court? and isn't that what the constitution say, as lo

Quite simply, the oil companies and the government are waiting for the oil supplies in other nations to dry up before drilling our own supplies. I am glad that the word is getting out about that. People said i was crazy when i said that long time ago. The question is why didnt we continue the e

but democrats and their weakness on terrorism and their social views make them "more bad" to me. How exactly are they weak on terrorism? Because they say the terror base was and still is in Afghanistan and not in Iraq? Because they say terrorism shouldnt make us lose our rights and priva

The Democrats are not less bad, they both suck equally You know MM, that is exactly the genius of the GOP strategists. They get most voters to believe that. then they turn around and say we are better on defense. People really buy that. All the facts and history provide ample evidence to the contrary.

The truth is, you and others on the left have wrongly castigated the GOP for blocking Civil Rights, when it was your OWN party that stood in the schoolhouse door.

The FACTS are that the Democratic party was DEEPLY split over the Act. Doesnt that prove my point? The WH worked to get it passed. they got enought votes from BOTH parites to get it done.
