. . . Wow, oh wow. Sorry dude.... you start quoting Michael Moore to support ... ANYTHING... and your credibility is shot. Then, you follow that with a conspiracy theory about the health care industry ? Again, wow. And as for the military... I never said they were efficient . Ridiculous amounts of ...

I don't like McCain's plan. The problem in this country right now IS private health insurance. We need a universal health insurance plan - everybody covered. Too expensive? No. That's health insurance company hype. Canadians are healthier than we are for a per capita cost that is less than what we ...

Voters in Riviera Beach approved the law in March. A first offense for sagging pants carries a $150 fine or community service, and habitual offenders face the possibility of jail time. I think the look is odd, but . . . I also think that everyone who voted for this law should be slapped around a bi...

I can't speak for anyone else, and he wasn't my first choice, but I'M supporting McCain because we NEED a president with a COWBOY MENTALITY for a change. GUNS, GOD, & GUTS! GOD BLESS THE UNITED STATES. Now-WHAT will Obama do that has you all wetting your panties? (Other than the fact he isn't P...

Re: Was Charlie Gibson "fair" with Gov. Sarah Pali

Was Charlie Gibson "fair" with Gov. Sarah Palin? Did you see the interview? Mr. Good Morning America has interviewed many people. Do you feel there was another Charlie Gibson behing the microphone or like Fox news, was he fair and balnaced? I don't think he was fair at all. In fact, in tw...

It seems like for decades, we've had to choose between the lesser of two evils when it comes for voting for president. When are we EVER going to get a great, smart, experienced, ass-kickin', fair, honest candidate ? I have a feeling the answer is gonna have the words "freezes over" in it....

Yes for 10 million.

I wouldn't care what people thought of me with 10 million in the bank (actually I don't care now).

Besides, in my secluded villa in the south of France, nobody would see me anyway.

Well, I guess I'd throw the ambassador out too, if his country was using its intelligence agency to foment a coup. (The CIA has a long, sordid and well-documented history of that sort of thing you know). Frankly, I don't think Chavez is too worried about the U.S. being his biggest customer for crude...

What do you mean by 'fair' in this context? I watched the interview. Although she kept trying to answer many of the questions with irrelevant sound bites (she is a politician after all - business as usual in that regard), I'm getting a slightly better idea about what views Sarah Palin holds on the i...

There are two aircraft bridges at Boston Logan, above which small American flags have been flying for close to seven years. You likely wouldn't see them from inside the passenger boarding lounges, and as a passenger you likely wouldn't notice them while taxiing past on the ramp. The gates aren't mar...

I offer this suggestion as gently as I can:

If you think this country is in a fine mess, look in the mirror not across the aisle.

If you think this country is just fine, you need to pull your head out of your ___.

Some progress - yes.

The discussion of 'First Ladies', while informative, doesn't address women running for and getting elected to, high office.

women in politics . . .

After reading the last couple of 'political' threads, it's clear to me that women still aren't taken seriously when it comes to politics. Between attacking some female politicians as feminazis because they've dared to associate the word 'feminist' with themselves, or discussing whether or not some o...

I wonder how much campaigning George will do for John? Does John even want George to 'help' him out on the campaign trail? It could be seen as a liability to have George around when John is trying to get elected. If Al thought he should avoid association with Bill during the 2000 election race (prob...

The media always manages to grab your attention with words like 'panic' and 'plunge'. There may have been some panic in the passenger cabin (understandable), but I doubt the plane 'plunged' 26,000 feet. More likely a controlled emergency descent flown entirely on autopilot (if the Ryan Air chaps tra...
