Messy Buu, And you aren't speaking from your opinion? What hard evidence do you mean? You mean picking and choosing certain traits from other countries and comparing them with selective traits from the US? Okay you can double talk all you want, and backtrack. I respect that but please tell

Okay it's Friday. I got to wake to "Gay marriages nullified". Look I have nothing against Homosexuals and what they do in the privacy in their homes, but come on! How long is this battle going to last. Before it was legal in (I won't name which state, to protect the innocent) to have two Gay people tie the knot; now it isn't. This is what the Homosexuals and the

Greywar, Is there any chance that we could give peace a chance? yes I am sure the Kurds would have loved for us to give peace another chance so Saddam could have whacked the remainder of their population. Nice to see non-interventionism is alive and well out there. I hope that the same attitude applies when you or so

Texas Wahine I'm just curious as to what the purpose of this blog is . . . You are not willing to have an open discussion with others, so why even allow comments? Of course I am! If you don't read the blog thoroughly and asked a question that's already been answered...well what's the point? P

Madine, I'm sure if our cops didn't carry guns, they would get shot at. Canada's "free" healthcare also brings along higher taxes and longer waits for medical care. Singapore has some of the strictest laws in the world. Do you support the death penalty for drug trafficking? Do you know why our

Madine, My point was, there haven't been single attacks conducted by criminal organizations that killed 3k people on the same day. The difference between the Nazis and Al Qaeda is that the Nazis could be held accountable for their actions and removed from power in ways Al Qaeda cannot. Firs

Messy Buu, Really? It's robotic to compare one country to another country in their entireties, but not to compare the best traits of many countries to the worst traits of one? See you're not doing that, what you are doing is overlooking the hard evidence...and you are speaking from YOUR opinion

Today, today. Well folks it's Thursday...I sit here typing, I just got done replying to some people about yesterday's blog. I must say I thought I would run into some mindless ramblings, but to my surprise there are some intelligent people out there, if not a little naive. We live in a world of lies, we grow up on the principle that "What we don't know, won't hurt

Madine We weren't spendng a great deal of money preventing airplane hijackings prior to 9/11. The government did not consider the hijacking of domestic flights or the use of commerical airliners as suicide weapons to be serious threats. One of the main reasons for the Dept of Homeland Security is to identify such threats

Messy Buu, I never realized that if a nation has one trait better than the US, it's a better country. One would think to compare the whole of a nation to the whole of another nation and not just the best trait of one to the worst traits of another. Oh I could go on and on, but why? Do realize

Thank you Daiwa, One question: Do you have any information contrary? Solid concrete evidence? Then if you do not, then what you are saying is your opinion; and though they are your opinions, I fear you are misguided in your patriotic duty to stand up for the biggest terrorist organization: which is the White House. Daiwa, I hope you take no offense- but I would hope that you shed your idealisms, and face reality: The United

Thank you Greywar, If the US is such a terible nation in comaprison to other nations of the world then leave. If you think there is a better nation that is... No? Why is that? Oh? Because there isn't one? Ah i see... This is not about who's who of nations. Yes there are better nations out the

Thank you again Madine, The terror alert level has to do with how much money government agencies spend on security based on how likely we consider an attack to be You see all the money in world did not prevent the 9/11 hijackings did they? And as far as "...how likely we consider an attac

Once again our gracious government has issued that "Terrorist's may strike America at any time now", threat level "Paranoid" has just moved up to threat level "Too much Propaganda". As an American I really would like to know if the "Homeland Defense Circus Team" has really thought this out. There's orange, red, yellow, and so on. Next thing you know our leaders wil

It has been months since the now-infamous photographs from Abu Ghraib revealed that American soldiers tortured Iraqi prisoners-yet the Bush administration has failed to get to the bottom of the abuses.

In reality Miss, if my head is in my rear end then yours is nowhere to be found. The physical killings are incredibly inhumane, but I must say there are other ways to torture people. The United States is known to put sanctions on countries virtually starving innocent people to death, the United States cut off Japans oil, forcing the Japanese to attack Pearl Harbor. Gee I wonder if someone cut off our oil what would we do...Oh yeah we would go into t

In regards to your blog, I feel that we are just scratching the surface of how the U.S. military is run. Things like this go on everyday, its just that now it's in the spotlight. I believe atrocities in Vietnam by U.S. servicemen is a clear picture that things like this have been happening, and will continue to happen; it has been going on for centuries. When people say "War is Hell", they mean it. I don't think that Lynndie England was misguided,

Thank you for your comments Chickenman1. First off I really need to point out that the "Muslim Onslaught" is not the problem, it is the policing action taken on by the United States that sets off radicals. My point is, war in the Middle East has nothing to do with the United States. The U.S. needs to address the social needs in its own country first, before trying to address those in other countries. Second, the U.S. isn't going to be "De
