[quote who="Nitro Cruiser" comment="1"]Seems to me like California (one state in the worst position to be dictating anything of financial consequence) is driving this issue, why have a federal government?[/quote] Because if we don't the amount of garbage in the air would make life intolerable, Since we increased stadards for emissions the air here has gotten cleaner, more breathable, and yet we still have to have clean air days.

[quote who="JillUser" comment="1"]The Gay and Lesbian forces do not want civil rights, they want to force America to take thousands of years of tradition and flush it down the toilet so a small percentage of people can force their ideals and practices on the rest of America.What used to be "tolerance" is now - you have to agree that those alternative lifestyles are perfectly normal and should be accepted as no different than traditional families. First Bobbi says we should dig a moat the

Everyone seems to be concentrating on the problems we are having in the country lately; Illegal Immigration, Hurricane recovery in New Orleans, Alligators attacking people in Florida; Mad cow disease, our constitution, the Ten Commandments, the passing of Proposition Eight in California; etc. My Oldest sent me an e-mail and seems to have solutions to these problems, maybe Bobbi {my oldest} should run for president! She has a lot of common sense! I wonder how she would solve our econom
I am going to answer this with an off beat answer. I hope it's ok with you Donna. The answer is, "when will people remember that DEMOCRATS are the PARTY OF TAX AND SPEND"
I for some reason keep thinking of antique shops that have signs says "do not touch, if you break it, it,s yours" Well we the people helped break the country, now it's up to us to own it and fix it. I hope this makes sense.
Liberals can never ever give a conservative a point for anything, while I agree both Hannity and O'Reilly are right bent, Hannity much more than O'Reilly, Liberals cannot, will not give up the fact that CNN, MSNBC, ABC, NBC, CBS, NY Times, Washington Post, Time and Newsweek are as left of center as Fox is conservative . I read that more than a few leftwing news papers like the Seattle Post Intelligencer {hows that for an oxymoron?} is folding because the people of America can see throug
[quote who="Rightwinger" comment="18"]Someone at work today told me this joke:Senator Robert ("Sheets") Byrd (D-WV) walks up to Obama; Biden is there, chatting with the new President.Obama sticks out his hand and smiles; Byrd reaches up, pulls his lips apart and checks his teeth, then feels up his genetalia. With that, he looks at Biden, nods and says "He'll do.....give ya a hundred bucks."[/quote] OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO good one!!!!
[quote who="Nitro Cruiser" comment="2"]ID I think your despairing too much. Sure it will take a big slap in the face to wake a lot of people out of their "yes we can" trance. Unless Obama can get those check in the mail soon, that will be the first group to wake up, the next will be the ones paying for it, and finally his actions in office will jar more. A big helping of reallity can be good for the country in the long run.How the hell did Murtha get re-elected? He calls his constituents
I for one person am willing to give Obama a change and see what he does, before cheering or booing, I think everyone should thinks in the same manner.
To say the the Catholic Church did no harm to Jews is beyond ridiculous, My family were land owners on Barcelona, during the Inquisition there were give a few choices, to denounce Judaism and convert to Catholicism, to stay Jews is Spain and die, or to leave Spain with what you can carry, {most Jews converted as much as they could and converted it to diamonds and gold}. My branch of the family wandered for years till the Sultan of Turkey granted them asylum, Imagine that, thrown out by "Chris

wow! how did this article get passed me? This is a very powerful article, short, sweet and right to the heart of the matter. Very good points made here DocG, Whew! re-reading it was just as power filled as the first read.

[quote who="Rightwinger" comment="7"]On another post I made, I said how strange it seemed that there was a big peanut butter and cheese cracker recall on MLK Day, the day before the inaguration. Here they are, celebrating a black man's b-day, and swearing in a black president, and they go out and round up a bunch of crackers. Something wrong there.Also, it's such a shame how the Obamas had to wait so long to get into Blair House; even today, a black man has problems getting housing. [/qu

[quote who="JillUser" comment="4"]I hadn't heard that. Where "on the right" did it come from? I think the right tends to play with kiddie gloves compared to the left on such matters.

[quote who="Humbordt" comment="14"]Don't ask, Don't tellThere are openly gay people in the military right now, they just are not supposed to mention it to their commanders. As official policy, don't ask don't tell is silly. If a guy wants to put his life on the line for his country, then more power to him, he deserves nothing but respect for that. As a general guideline, don't ask don't tell is not a bad idea--military commanders just don't need that inform
