Just my point, it's like saying I will live near this danger because it is the Govts responsability to protect me from it, so when something happens and that danger hurts me or my family in any way, I will blame the Govt. Not that I couldn't avoid it, but it is still their fault.
Anyone with strong beliefs for or against the war in the Middle East or needs to do some reading and / or speak with some people from the region - it may change your mind in many many ways about what action is appropriate and / or profitable. Ok I get your point, but have you spoken to anyone who is in
This has NOTHIONG to do with being against the rich. It has everything to deal with fiscal responsibility of balancing the federal budget and ending the policy of allowing the federal deficit to continue to grow! The part you left out is that the real reason the deficit is where it is is because of the
If there is anyone to blame for my financial situation, I can only think of 2 answers: me and the American people. I say me, obviously, because as a family man, I am responsible for the well being on my wife, kids and myself. Just like my wife is responsible for the well being of my kids and me as well. It is up to me and her to proving the financial part of our lives so that we can live a, somewhat, normal life (normal depending on the pers
The values and strengths of America are demonstrated daily with the thousands that are clamoring to get in. You dont see that in any of the other nations mentioned. Surely not in Europe. Exactly. I am trying to do what was recomended in that trolling article where one is addicted to answering to the r
Actually there's a lot of people who want to get into Europe. They tend to get the African, Central Asian and Middle Eastern refugees. The US mostly gets the (South)East Asian and South American refugees whilst a tiny trickle makes its way to Australia and New Zealand. With 20 million refugees in the world there's plenty to go ar
Following the DNP ideals and strategies, if too much of a good thing is bad for you, wouldn't the opposite be true as well and hence wouldn't Bush be good for us in the end?
well thank you DJ for pointing out the obvious, but the truth is they CANNOT point to anaything done by the democratic party in last 2 years, hence the whining about how mean anad cruel I am. It would almost seem that they are doing to you what the DNP is doing to Bush, let's not give ideas of how to b
The truth is Davad and Steve is that you both could have easily got some points just by simply answering the question and maybe even shutting MM's mouth (keep in mind I said maybe). But instead you chose to give the run around and and throw snowballs right back. I have always found it hypocritical for someone to say " all you do is insult us" when it is exactly what you are doing. In other words you lowered yourself to the same level that you claim we
Saw your article and the last name is not a common one. Welcome to JU! Dan is a good man! Hey, you never welcomed me.
When your taxes go up to pay the interest Bush added we will see if you think it BS! But isn't that what you want anyways?
I can understand when you say that the war in Iraq is causing the deficit to raise, no one can question that. But when you say that the Govt is taking from the poor and giving to the rich, wouldn't that mean that the money is still here and that it will eventually be put back in the economy? I mean big corporations don't just make money, they also have to spend money or materials, machines and paying their employees, insurance, taxes. So part of that m
Yes the poor have been around long before Bush. What Bush is doing is shifting money from the poor and middle income Americans to the wealthy. He is CUTTING help to the poorest and driving the country into debt which will limit the resources in the future to meet our needs. The money will be going to more and more interest paymen
#102 by COL Gene Tuesday, January 24, 2006 Oh this is great stuff Col. There is no need for us to debate you and prove you wrong, you do a great job doing that all by yourself. Let me explain. Your first link, the first sentence says this: <TABLE cellpadding=8 width="95%" align=cen
That is, if the spouse has the drive, too, along with one of them taking care of the kids--by your definition. Steve, I normally don't reply to your replies because you tend to be a very inteligent person and have very good insites into politics that I lack. But Tthis one I can not let go. This is just
A bump just to give me hope that someone will actually read this. I didn't realize it was so long, lol.
The irony of life is that pain is usually part of the solution to a problem. Like when injecting a medicine like penicillin, killing cows and chicken for their meat, locking criminals in jail as punishment (not perfect but does work sometimes), spending money in order to make money, the gift of life, hard work, exercise, fighting. Sometimes pain just can't be avoided in order to solve a problem no matter how much we try. People must die in ord
Sure, I have a Pakistani room mate who has lived in the U.S. for ten years, now, I've kept in contact with a French Muslim whom I met in college who immigrated from Tehran and is here as part of the student exchange program, and if you listen to the majority of Muslim scholars and religious leaders, they continually point out the
I have read articles where some have said that the economy is not doing to good, that there are alot of unemployed poeple. What I have yet to see is all this, "millions go hungry to sleep", "millions without jobs", "millions can't afford bills". Where do you get you stories Col? I have used many different search engines and can't figure out where you get this stuff.
There are millions that go to bed hungry at night. CNN had a news article about people in Ohio in line for food for up to 5 hours Are you saying that they are all in Ohio? Did you ever care about all those thousand who went to sleep hungry before 9/11? BTW where exactly is this article you speak of cau
Minimum wage is less then 10K if you are paying payroll taxes. Even $8 per hour does not get a person to the poverty level which is about 17K. There are jobs in Florida but many do not pay enough to live. In the area I live in there are no $500 apartments. The energy bills including water are more then $100 per month and $100 for
I find it very interesting to read opinions that some people have about how the US conducts itself in the world. Like it is some kind of world police that goes around telling other countries what to do and how to do it. So think something has to be done in order to make this world a better place to live and since the US is, today, the most powerful country in the world, it is up to us to take the first steps towards that road. Others think that we have
The evil terrorist Bush, how could he do such a thing. Water is bad for Iraqis and so is freedom. What we gave them choices when voting? How dispicable. Next thing you know they'll all start getting along and no longer have hatred towards each other. Then we will really have failed in Iraq.
Most from the middle east that I have spoken to reply, with some chagrin, that the majority of people in the region favor a theocracy of some kind and are amazed at American ignorance of the fact... Could you be a bit more specific as to who you are talking about, like are they Americans or Iraqis? Just
Specially for Col. Here is a small list of links for you. Each one is a page from a newpaper website, the JOB section. The most interesting thing about it is that IT'S FULL OF JOBS. <a href="http://www.careerbuilder.com/jobseeker/jobs/jobresults.aspx?vt=&cibookmark=1&jrdid=&strCrit=QID%3dA3849700228088%3bst%3da%3buse%3dALL%3bCTY%3dMIAMI%3bSID%3dFL%3bCID%3dUS%3bENR%3dNO%3bDTP%3dDR3%3bYDI%3dYES%3bIND%3dALL%3bPDQ%3dAll%3bJN%3dAll%3bPAYL
