Liberals are not the only ones that can't resist calling attention to hypocrisy. People are sick and tired of being told that ordinary and decent people are fed up in this country with being sick and tired. I’m certainly not, and I’m sick and tired of being told that I am

That 87% in favor number is obviously skewed due to the nature of the questions asked: MSNBC should be put on trial for journalistic malpractice. The question is obviously leading - "between the" clearly implies presumption of guilt. A proper question would have said that he has been accused of... I think the results of a poll should always be shown with the exact question asked so that such bullshit can be identified. The charge that he is guilty of leaking and covering up the leak of the identity of Valerie Plame Wilson is especially funny. I hope the Dems in congress try to impeach Bush. It was a horrible political move for the Repubs, and will greatly help the Repubs in the 2008 election. Go for it!

Is oil the only product for which you think a tax should be imposed in order to deal with the resultant issues related to its use? No. But right now it's the biggie, because used as fuel it cannot be recycled and creates pollution problems on a massive scale. The pricing structure does not reflect these issues. There are a number of minerals, for example, whose price does not truly reflect their importance, availability and replaceability. Stuff that many have never heard of, like tantalum, and hafnium, as well as things like chromium and cobalt. The issue of sustainability will become more and more important as China and India develop. Styrofoam cannot be recycled and creates pollution problems, junk food has societal cost burdens, owners of small airplanes with funny names impose societal cost burdens... Perhaps an alternative tax reform scheme would be to eliminate the income tax and instead impose taxes on all products depending on an evaluation of their societal cost burden. One could argue that this is already done with some products like cigarettes and alcohol.

Did you know of this ceremony: http://www.aero-news.net/news/sport.cfm?ContentBlockID=f5c8a4ca-0cb7-4ea0-85cf-9e0f6d2ac36e&Dynamic=1 There is some contention about whether Kittenger went faster than sound. My understanding is that his reported maximum speed is not higher than the speed of sound, even if it had happened at 102,000 feet.

A recount for punch cards is also possible, although some chads will supposedly fall off with each pass through the automated counters. If we really want to avoid intentional tampering, as was shown possible for the touch screen machines, then perhaps it is best to choose a system where any machines used apply the most antiquated technology, with the technology/software being removed physically from the voter. Punch cards seem to be a good method, if my rationale makes any sense. Nothing at all modern is needed to run that sort of system, probably no software updates will ever be needed.

There are still "electronics to go wrong" with the optical reader systems that are used for paper ballots in Arizona, for instance.

QuoteI wonder why we have a contract, then, if it's not in doubt. Still "Hmmm" Quote It could just be to verify the obvious for a normal machine, or perhaps tampering with those machines is suspected, or intentional tampering will be done for experiments.

YES, HELLO, WHO IS IT? I CAN'T COME TO THE DOOR NOW I'M DOING THE DISHES! We are free, and Bush is not a dictator. The answer to the original poster's question is: Impeachment, if you can't wait for the next election. Another alternative is to deny funding to the military. The Dems in congress can choose to do either. Nothing is restraining them from doing it, and it would in fact make much of their political base very happy. People are sick and tired of being told that ordinary and decent people are fed up in this country with being sick and tired. I’m certainly not, and I’m sick and tired of being told that I am

It was done before the election. The machines ability to get it right under normal conditions is not in doubt, I think. The ability to easily alter the programming has been correctly identified. It was Dems that pushed so hard to eliminate punch card systems. It just had to be done as fast as possible or even faster no matter what. Do you remember that guy during the 2000 election, in one of the lawsuits where everything was broadcast, there was a supposed expert asserting that there was a problem with the rubber that the punch bottoms out against. They claimed that it would get hard from the repeated impact of the punch! Then, I think it was a materials engineer, was called by Bush's lawyer to testify, and made Gore's expert look like exactly what he was - an expert hired to testify to a conclusion based on 'seat of the pants' uninformed speculation. Sorry for the thread drift. People are sick and tired of being told that ordinary and decent people are fed up in this country with being sick and tired.

Aside from Dubya's mother, you are the only person on the PLANET who believes he's either a great leader or worthy of a comparison to Winston Churchill. My God. I make my share of sweeping statements, but speaking for the entire world is not one I've made yet.

I don't think our intelligence services are willing to just give it a miss and ignore it. Is there a scenario that explains why they would want to trick us into thinking that the war is causing them great harm?

Actually going into Iraq has changed that.....it created more of them and made their drive stronger. attaboy indeed The words of our enemies do not tell the same story. Remember the letter that told of how they were being devastated. They have also admitted that they think Iraq is the central front in their war against the west.

However, as you explained, it was OK that our military was without adequate armor, because we would have taken the time to do planning and equipping to take care of that shortfall before invading some country. Wouldn't that be true of much more equipment for our troops? A lot of it isn't needed if they are only there, as you say, for the defense of our homeland. That policy would leave us with no credible deterrent - no stick at all. I say it is much better for our enemies to know we can strike very quickly. No, not everyone should be hit with the stick, just the right ones. Surely there will be innocent bystanders, that is the nature of war. Perhaps you would only consider a war moral if there are no innocents killed. Post WWII W. Germany and Japan were a success story, I think, because the militaristic thinking of their leadership was truly rejected by the general population. If there were factions of the Japanese or German army that still wanted to fight, they were not provided cover by the average citizen. The average person there was able to clearly see they were on the wrong side, and that their interests were now best served by accepting the military defeat and suffering the indignity of what was only going to be a temporary occupation. We didn't wait to see if this was going to be the case before declaring Victory in Europe/Japan day. So, I conclude that we have won the war in Iraq. As some opponents of the war correctly say, we haven't won the peace. Perhaps we should conclude that some cultures are incapable of living in a diverse culture, even if that diversity is only the different forms of Islam. Do you think that Their religious text (or at the very least much of their religious leadership) denies them the right to Democracy and compels them to be crusaders for Islamic domination? I contend that Al Qaeda is able to operate as they do in the Middle East because they have substantial support from the general population for their cause of worldwide Islamic domination. That quest needs to be rejected, starting from the bottom up or top down. Anwar Sadat had a true change of heart, that is what is needed by their leadership. Where is such a leader from the Arab world now? People are sick and tired of being told that ordinary and decent people are fed up in this country with being sick and tired.

That statement implies that the purpose of the war was to kill tens of thousands of innocent people. That is of course, pure bullshit. What level of innocent casualties allows a war to not be immoral? People are sick and tired of being told that ordinary and decent people are fed up in this country with being sick and tired.

And it wasn't just that he lied about getting a blowjob, the important thing is that he was asked the question because of an investigation regarding sexual misconduct with another woman. I think there was some witness tampering going on also. People are sick and tired of being told that ordinary and decent people are fed up in this country with being sick and tired.

Love to, but they get there and decide to stay. fFind me canidates that are for term limits, and they have a great shot at getting my vote. You can do it without their support. Term limits on the state level are possible in states that allow referendums. On the national level, politicians are sensitive to what the public wants, and if there was a mass effort devoted to a constitutional amendment for term limits, politicians would support it. They'll get their pensions even if they don't stay there for 30 years. People are sick and tired of being told that ordinary and decent people are fed up in this country with being sick and tired.

Gosh, if only everyone was as wise and gracious as you. Thank you so much for not only telling me what is what, but for making it clear that it is all simple and intuitive. Your position is quite logical if you don't mind the US being a paper tiger. Many would agree that the ability to 'speak softly and carry a big stick' is wise. Your position would give us 'speak softly and convince the rest of the world that we have the intention of making a big stick if we decide we need it'. And once again it fairly simple; even somewhat intuitive. People are sick and tired of being told that ordinary and decent people are fed up in this country with being sick and tired.

I wonder if it is the first point of contact that matters, or perhaps the final resting place that determines the winner. Maybe it gets divided up between the grids that were traversed.

They have sheltered and aided those that have declared war on us. They should be attacked with overwhelming force.

Many think it is bad because their sense of morals tells them it is wrong. A direct message from God isn't required. There is good reason to conclude that it is in fact not "important science". To admit that would be very embarrassing to liberals, after making such a fuss about it with Michael Fox. Do you think there is any scientific research that could be immoral?

DUDETE.. our guys were still doing plenty of driving around in Humvees and larger trucks, plenty of supply truck convoys getting hit by all kinds of weapons including RPGs.
