Lawyer: Roman Polanski feels depressed in jail
Sun Oct 11, 2009
- But, he's a CELEBRITY! He lost his mother to the Nazis. Doesn't that warrant a "Get out of jail free card?" Or do you have to actually do the time for your crime?
Do you want your child to hear President Obama's school speech?
Mon Sep 7, 2009
- If THIS is the "important work" being done by the President of the United States, no wonder we are in a recession!
Obama birth certificate once again declared real
Tue Jul 28, 2009
- NONE of this ever mattered. The Constitution does NOT require that you be born in the USA. It requires you to be a "natural born" citizen.
Do you think Obama's speech will improve the relationship between the United States and the Muslim world?
Thu Jun 4, 2009
- Unless we renounce any alliances with Israel and allow them to destroy that ONE functional democracy, all the talk in the world won't help.
Retired military chiefs: Time to shift from oil
Tue May 19, 2009
- No amount of oil produced directly from the US will replace ALL imported oil. We need alternative methods of developing energy. Forget Ethanol, it is a fuel that consumes as much energy as it produces, a waste of corn.

- You get only so much from conservation. Think of it this way: If you require 2000 kcal/day to stay alive and you are stranded with only 6000 kcal of food, you can live for 3 days, perhaps survive for 12, but you cannot do much else.
Some grow impatient with Obama
Mon May 18, 2009
- Americans will give Obama only so much time, then turn on him. He has taken the wrong approach. You cannot borrow your way to prosperity, nor can you take from those who have worked to earn their wealth to give to others. America is not about redistribution of income.

Since when is Israel a functioning Democracy?! First- they have a different form of gov't- more like England's- P.M., etc.- Second- look at how many governments have been formed and collapsed/resigned/etc. in Israel's history- if their government functioned better they would actually listen to the people and try to make peace. Any form of government where 2 losing groups can avoid the election box and form a "coalition" gov't- the people's right to accept this government is completely eliminated; they voted, and the person who got the most votes doesn't even get to go into a run-off- he can actually be completely shut out of the process. Do some research into Israel's history, and some of the actions their "freedom fighters" took in the 40s in trying to establish their state. The actions would be called terrorism by today's standards. They are now a legitimate, sovereign nation, but they have no right what so ever to annex land that is outside their internationally recognized borders. I am not anti- Israel- I AM pro- common sense, and all too often the Israeli government does not heed the loud calls for peace from their citizens. They are not, and should not be, immune to criticism and being held responsible for their mistakes; nor should they be exempt from a need to change attitude and course from time to time- it's called furthering one's knowledge, and it quite often causes one to re-evaluate their beliefs and values. Try it.
