Yes gas prices did come down but wait till after the election. These fascist republicans have scam the people in the last 2 elections and are attemping to do it again. No I don't think we should change or do away with the electoral college it was working well untill these fascist republicans started scaming and cheating the system. What we do need to change is these republicans who are ruining the United States. They hate people for the love of money. In November vote but not for any of these perverted evil-doer republicans. They all deserve a good A....kicking and jail time.
AN ODE TO
DEMOCRATS AND REPUBLICANS
The love of money is the root of all evil so I am told;
so goes the politician god bless his soul;
power, fame, and fortune they seek till their old;
never quite getting there and left out in the cold;
the democrats and republicans are so bold;
the people who places them there never do scold;
they make excuses, fuss, and frett without a goal;
they all seem to be just inclined to be a mold;
and they all seem to think this is their better roll;
I would rather think that they have to pay a toll;
for the things in life that forever seem to unfold;
the democrats and republicans I just really don't know.

Why is the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) relying on the food producers to police themselves? The contamination of the nation’s food supply which has led to disease outbreaks that have killed 3 people and sickened hundreds is a shame. It seems the FDA is incapable of protecting the safety of the food supply and this Bush administration isn’t doing anything but blowing hot air and smirking at the American people and doing very little to stem this outrage. They contend there is nothing that can be done about the problem.
There is a problem in California with hogs that have eaten feed laced with Melamine an industrial chemical that resulted in the deaths of some pets. The FDA have not yet determined if this is a threat to humans. There has been a recall of over 100 different brands of pet food. These outbreaks should prompt the FDA to change it’s way of doing business in a way that will insure the nation’s food supply. This Bush administration and many of
the sinister Republicans are sure dropping the ball here, and it seems like they are just passing the buck, and even claiming the problem is just to big to handle.
The House Energy and Commerce subcommitte is planning to have hearing on these flood of recalls of pet feed. The Bush administration and the Republicans do not want any more regulations, and not inclined to spent the money. This administration’s hostility towards the government is going to hinder the FDA getting a handle on this problem. The Congress should bring forth legislation to account for the FDA’s accountability as well as this badly led administration role in this matter.
The FDA inspectors who checks into these types of problems allowed the companies who produce the pet feed to refuse them documents they were seeking, and the FDA inspectors just up and left and never followed-up. This is a shame and very dangerous to the food safety of pets and humans.
Bush and his Republican coharts seem not to care. Last August 400 people were sickened in 44 states caused by Salmonella contamination from moisture from a roof leak and a faulty sprinkler system.
This Democratic controlled Congress should step up to the plate concerning these as well as other issues confronting the government before it will be to late to do anything about them, because it seems this administration believes that it can do the American people anyway it chooses. In my opinion there should be impeachment of Bush coming out of this Congress, the sooner the better. These elite rich fat cat Republicans
who blindly goes along with Bush no matter what the cost and suffering of the American people also need to be brought before the bar of justice and justice served where they cannot continue to prey up on the American people. William in Alabama.
President are rather the “Decider” today made it very clear that he will veto the Iraq funding bill that has a pull out of our troops timetable. He said: “sorry it’s come to this” but he added flatly that the measure would be vetoed. There are many people now saying that the essence of what we’re seeing is what we saw in Vietnam, that unless you have the political support of the people there, they’re not going to support really fighting for their own country. It is not until we get out will they really take it upon themselves to defend themselves, especially against al Queda because they are just using them and coming in and attacking Americans. The Americans in Iraq are part of the problem, and not a solution to that problem. There simpley is not a strategy to end or win this war. The war is unwinable and cannot be sustained militarily. That is why we have to get out.
George Bush the “Decider” has indicated that if Congress wants to test his will as to wheather or not he will accept a timetable for withdrawal, that he will not accept one, and states that “its not in the best interest of our troops”, and that its a mistake for the Congress to tell Generals and military experts, how to conduct a war. This is pure and simple luncy on the part of the “Decider” in my opinion. I do not believe, nor do I believe the majority of Americans believe that it is in the best interest of our troops to stay deployed in Iraq where there is a civil war raging between factions of the Iraqi people, in a fruitless and unwinable war, and dying there without just cause, because this war begin as an unjust war. This so-called President should be impeached and put on trial for high crimes and misdemeanours.
In my opinion this appointed President is a disgraceful, unamerican, elite rich and greedy human being that has ever set foot in the oval office. This Democratic controlled Congress had better get their act together are they will meet the same fate as the Republicans met in this last election, maybe worse. This Congress should number one: IMPEACH BUSH! DEPORT ALL ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS! RETURN THE POWER TO THE PEOPLE! William in Alabama.
In my opinion, the whole system within our government is being controlled by greedy elite and powerful individuals and corporations among others, who are systematically exploiting and causing great harm to the American people. These elite and powerful are getting their perks and kickbacks from the ones that put them in office and that are keeping them there to the extent reminiscent of the nazi Gestapo. Americans who are disabled and on Social Security are not actually considered disabled by this government and are expected to payback loans and other bills, some with very high interest and penalty rates that keep adding up while the person is unemployed; thereby turning simple loans and other debts with high fees and other late charges etc. into a nightmare debt no one who is disabled can afford to pay back. Many of these loans and debts triple from their original amount. When will there ever be action or at least and investigation concerning these matters? When are the Courts of this land going to rein in these Federal agencies and elite, rich, and corrupt individuals and corporation among others that today are seen as “above the law”, out of control and filled with corruption. These matters should have already been brought out by the news media and others, but it seems the media and politicians of today are all in bed with these elite, rich and corrupt individuals and corporations, while our government gives billions of dollars in aid around the world to many questionable groups and activies. That aslo wage an unjust war in Iraq costing the American citizens billions and billions of taxpayers dollars that could instead be going to the millions of suffering American people.
This government it seems in the area of education, the Department of Education should change its logo to state its real business: “ helping to break up American families and keep our kids in debt”.
The American people despite the exploits of the government and the elite, rich, and corrupt individuals and corporations among others are somehow surviving, but it requires both spouses working to put food on the table at the detriment of their children. There are now three jobs in the American family, two carreers plus parenting. You could say that family life is beginning to initate the downsizing of the American family office. This means parents and their children live apart most of the time. Most children almost never see their parents together. When they are together they are always busy with lessons, classes, games, etc.. Mothers and Dads bear the childrearing responsibilities, even while working full time. All this is eroding families from within, and playtime, conversation, courtesy, and intimacy are falling by the way side. Today the children are having to drive the cars to their activities because both parents are working. It is very unlikely that many of these kids will grow up to be competent and commpassiate adults. Most households with two parents who work outside their homes, pay a mortgage, and have two or three school-aged children. The families of today are barely if not falling behind in maintaining their family structure and well being. It seems that the family members of today do not have time for each other anymore. This brings these comments to the question of the economy.
With the flood of illegal immigration into the U.S., and the aiding, abeting, and assisting by these corrupt, elite, rich, powerful, and greedy government officials and their coharts mostly elite, rich, powerful, and greedy Republicans and their cronies, the cheap labor seeking corrupt and greedy corporations and individuals are in the proccess of destroying the working and middle class in America. In conclusion, the American people are facing some hard choices do we as Americans continue to let the Republicans along with their coharts to exploit and control the American way of life, or does the American people turn on these despots and return this country back to what the founding fathers of our nation meant it to be. To do so means casting out the whole lot in Washington D.C. and in every state, county, and local government offices across this great land. These Republicans are the biggest exploiters of the American people, but are not the only ones, there are some in
the Democratic Party that needs and atitude adjustment. William in Alabama
The demonstrators for illegal immigrants to obtain a path to citizenship for nearly 30 million, came together to today in Chicago and elsewhere around the country taking to the streets in protest. There were many illegal immigrants within these protest, one of them may have been Elvira Arellano, a Mexican who may have been here in the U.S. with her son Saul, supposely a U.S. citizen. She failed to show up at her deporation hearing, but the government refusing to take any action even though she is breaking the law is luncy at its best. People similar to these are gaming the system--” come into the U.S., have a kid, boom......your an American over night, and you don’t have to do anything , even though you may be illegally in this country. This type of non-sense is luncy at its best. All persons illegally in this country (U.S.) wheather you just gave birth and were here alive you all of a sudden are an American citizen upon giving birth and the child is therefore considered an American citizen is wrong-headed, stupid, crazy, and luncy or other way of saying it would be “bull crap”. All these illegals and their children should be deported back to where every they came from and let their government take care of them.
Some of the supporters of these illegal immigrants are on a hungry strike to gain legal status for Arellano to stay in this country has gone on now for about three weeks. The office of Homeland Security was unmoved by these actions and took no action. This to me is a crime in and of its self. These illegal people should be treated as any other common criminals, arrest them, book them, try them, sentence and fine them, and deport them. And to these wall-eyed despots Republicans along with their “Decider” they all should be removed from office, barred from every holding any public office or performing any business, privately or publicly. Further, if anyone is found to be abeting, aiding, or assisting any of these illegal immigrants they should like-wise be arrested, tried, fined, imprisoned, till justice is truly served. It does not take a genus to figure out this America! Wake up, join the great mess.........we’re all in together, all because of the Republicans and their “ Decider”. There should be no compromise on enforcing the law or allowing violations of the law. Everyone should know just because someone gives birth to someone here in the U.S. should not make either person (mother or Baby) automatically a citizen . The Democratic controlled Congress must pass senseable and understandable legislation to deal with illegal immigrants in this country. First, all illegal immigrants within this U.S. should be deported, our borders secured, and our government should go back to a controlled system that has worked fairly well for almost 200 tears. This would insure and protect the American people and it’s workers from unfair and corrupt labor practices but instead, this “Decider” is attempting to ram down the throats of the American people this luncy idea of amnesty and citizenship for upward of 30 million illegal immigrants. This luncy of an idea is unlawful, disrepectful, and downright hateful and the American people should not tolerate or
let a compromise be born, for there can be no compromise on right vs wrong. Because Wrong is never never ever ever right; smoking and doping is always never right; cheating and stealing is never ever right; drinking and boozing is never right; doing wrong is the opposite of right; Right is right; loving is right; caring is surely right; sharing is got to be right; believing in God is always right. So illegal immigrants, go back to your country, pray to your God and let him rescue you from yourselves, give to your country the love and respect it deserves and create a government among yourselves that lifts all of you out of poverty and despair, and stop demanding from others what they have earned and exploiting a system thats is not part of your being or business.

the Grand ole Party as the Republicans like to call it field of candidates are united on Iraq war, but divided on social issues. The contenders are completing for the so-called gipper mantle ever what that is? The Republican field is supposely so incomplete the GOP wants its safe House seats back. Well just to throw in a line on the brighter side of things former President Clinton has joined in on an efforts to deauthorize’ Iraq war. But, now turning back to the dark side, Bush the “Decider” wants phone firms immune to privacy suits. He is urging Congress to pass a law that would halt dozens of law suits charging phone companies with invading ordinary citizens privacy through a post-sept. 11 warrantless surveillance programs. What a draconian dream Bush is living cuddle up in the White House illegally. Bush and the despot Republicans are bullying and performing their evil deeds it seems un-checked by the Courts or Congress. He, Bush is very much out of touch with the American people. The “Decider” is now on a round up of those citizens that rat on criminals and law breakers. Yes, I believe that the 43 President is even more out of touch than the 41st President and thats a lot of out of touch. Bush needs to stop this nonsense of invading Americans private lives. I do not think it is ok to steal money or someones privacy just because a despot government tells you, you can. The phone companies who are or have broken the law should pay till it hurts them very badly.
National security is to the state what the sacred is to the church, a place to hide your evil and meanness. I believe instead of ruining our system of government like the Republicans and this administration are seeking to demolish our Bill of Rights and the American way of life. I believe that anyone including the phone companies should have to pay and restore the damages they have cost the American people till it hurts as a warning to others to be more courageous in opposing tyranny and evil in the future. How about for starters, obtaining the subpoenas for the White House phone records to check and see how many times the “decider” has called his buddies in Saudi Araba, where by the way this is where the 9/11 hi-jackers were from. Let us all Americans let freedom ring and give the White House records a listen to and find out just what this evil empire of George Bush has been doing since he was appointed President illegally and was not legally ever elected to be the President of the United States.
Bush should stop protecting big money and the elite rich and
dummies of this world and start standing up for what is right for this country. In my humble opinion this Bush fellow is an ungrateful, mean- spirited, greedy, and selfish individual that should be impeached along with this fellow Cheney who you see at times but suddenly disappears into thin air when the people need him most. In is my firm conviction that this despot Republican Party should be prohibited from running candidate in any election till the last two election
are properly investigated and justice is served upon the individuals who scam and bought the elections that the “Decider” claimed he won. IMPEACH BUSH NOW! William in Alabama

The First Republican Debate 2007 Year The first Republican Presidential debate was held in the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library was discourging and disgusting. The narrow-ranging views represented by the ten finest hypocrites the Grand ole Party could come up with, just shows how far these Republicans have fallen. These GOP candidates do not understand and they do not share the valves of the American people or those in the western part of the United States as they all claim and profess.
The Republican candidates support of the an immigration Bill based upon “employment-based” program is luncy and down right attack on the American workers. These despots Rupublicans candidates are against everything that is good for Americans. They debated or should i say pretented to debate everything but the real issues concerning the American people. They have concluded the U.S. tariff system defies logic and good sense. Well, they have been in control of the government for a decade are more why didn’t they fix these problems long ago? What they failed to say was that it does not conform with their agenda and bad policies they have reaped upon the American people. At this so-called debate these candidates called for legislation regulating the type of telephone calls one can make during the election season, in spite of the fact that the U.S. Constitution clearly states that all citizens have freedom of speech as well as other rights therein. How dumb and naive can these despots get? They all want to import foreign workers to replace American workers is to me an attack upon the foundation of our AMERICA.
These despots Republicans candidates are scheming and scaming the American people by purposing exotic schemes far less expensive way of moving hazardous material in and around cities in the U.S. at the expense of our national security. They are also trying to stir things up in Latin America and using Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez as their prop as the cause of our trade deficits, when everyone knows it is the Republicans and this administration who are the real curprits in this over-blown matter. These luncy policies of this administration and the Republican Party are causing all our trading and foreign relation problems , not only in Latin America, but around the world. These despot are now going so far as to blame the deadly outbreaks of the food contamination on their own Food and Drug administration saying that their agency is “overwhelmed and understaffed”, well where have they been for the last 15 years this was all of their making , they must think the America people are morons or fools but they will soon find out just how great thou Republicans are! Futher these despots candidates are being backed and supported by most of the Media in America for purely finanicial gain . It is a disgrace and outrage.
The narrow-ranging views represented by the ten hypocritical Republicans do not understand or share the values of the American either east or west. as they all claim to do so. Their support of the immigration Bill based upon “employment-based “ program is luncy at best.. These so-called candidates are against everything that is good for most Americans. The ten all talk about everything but the issues concerning the American people---They say our tariff system defies logic and good sense, but what they really mean is it does not conform with their petty agenda and bad policies. All ten of the candidates called for luncy legislation regulating the type of telephone calls one can make during the election season, in spite of the fact that the U.S. Constitution clearly dictates and states all citizens have “freedom of speech” as well as other rights there so expressed. How dumb can these despots get? They all want to import foreign workers to replace American workers for their want for cheap labor and sell to Americans products these workers produce at very high prices. This is clearly their aim and desire.
This so-called debate was just a warm up to see who is on top of the polls. There were no winners or losers, just a show of stupidy. There were no forceful presentations, and all ten didn’t acquitt themselves very well, just the same o same o. . They all were trying to be all things to all people , but it didn’t quite turn out that way. It was just another forum these despots Republicans could lie, about everything that they thought would give them a rise in the polls. The whole debate was nothing but a farce and a deception where they pretended to be freewheeling with pre-set questions and answers in advance of this so-called debate, very very different from the nice wholesome freewheeling and thoughtful debate put on by the party of the people, the great Democratic Party of American.

With the flood of illegal immigration into the U.S., and the aiding, abeting, and assisting by these corrupt, elite, rich, powerful, and greedy government officials and their coharts mostly elite, rich, powerful, and greedy Republicans and their cronies, the cheap labor seeking corrupt and greedy corporations and individuals are in the proccess of destroying the working and middle class in America. In conclusion, the American people are facing some hard choices, do we as Americans continue to let the Republicans along with their coharts to exploit and control the American way of life, or does the American people turn on these despots and return this country back to what the founding fathers of our nation meant it to be. To do so means casting out the whole lot in Washington D.C. and in every state, county, and local government offices across this great land. These Republicans are the biggest exploiters of the American people, but are not the only ones, there are some in
the Democratic Party that needs and atitude adjustment. William in Alabama
President are rather the “Decider” today made it very clear that he will veto the Iraq funding bill that has a pull out of our troops timetable. He said: “sorry it’s come to this” but he added flatly that the measure would be vetoed. There are many people now saying that the essence of what we’re seeing is what we saw in Vietnam, that unless you have the political support of the people there, they’re not going to support really fighting for their own country. It is not until we get out will they really take it upon themselves to defend themselves, especially against al Queda because they are just using them and coming in and attacking Americans. The Americans in Iraq are part of the problem, and not a solution to that problem. There simpley is not a strategy to end or win this war. The war is unwinable and cannot be sustained militarily. That is why we have to get out.
George Bush the “Decider” has indicated that if Congress wants to test his will as to wheather or not he will accept a timetable for withdrawal, that he will not accept one, and states that “its not in the best interest of our troops”, and that its a mistake for the Congress to tell Generals and military experts, how to conduct a war. This is pure and simple luncy on the part of the “Decider” in my opinion. I do not believe, nor do I believe the majority of Americans believe that it is in the best interest of our troops to stay deployed in Iraq where there is a civil war raging between factions of the Iraqi people, in a fruitless and unwinable war, and dying there without just cause, because this war begin as an unjust war. This so-called President should be impeached and put on trial for high crimes and misdemeanours.
In my opinion this appointed President is a disgraceful, unamerican, elite rich and greedy human being that has ever set foot in the oval office. This Democratic controlled Congress had better get their act together are they will meet the same fate as the Republicans met in this last election, maybe worse. This Congress should number one: IMPEACH BUSH! DEPORT ALL ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS! RETURN THE POWER TO THE PEOPLE! William in Alabama.
Conservative misinformation is being portrayed by some in the science and news media to be the truth and nothing but the truth. While it is a known fact that there is a scientific consensus that there has been significant global warming, enough to adversely affect the entire world. To often the media people are advancing false, misleading, and bais claims relating to the global warming crisis. This article is an attempt to subdue and point out the merits and facts concerning global warming.
There are far to many myths and falsehoods about global warming which are unsubstantiated claims that human activity is not the cause of global warming. There have been all kind of exaggerating of the facts, such as, carbon dioxide is not bad for the environment or the upper atmosphere. Most of these exaggeration and misleading information are coming mainly from the skeptics in the United States of global warming who have a very close relationship with the President George Bush and the Republican Party who are closely allied with the oil, gas, and coal industries.
For an example of just how world-wide this issue has become, there is a new theory on global warming proposed by Vladimir Shaidurov of the Russian Academy of Sciences that purpose the apparent rise in average global temperture recorded by scientists over the last hundred and fifty years or so could be due to atmospheric changes that are not connected to human emissions of carbon dioxide from the burning of natural gas and oil. Shaidurov explained how changes in the amount of ice crystals at high altitudes could damage the layer of thin high altitude clouds found in the mesosphere that reduce the amount of warming solar radiation reaching the earth’s surface. Shaidurov said that the Tungus metorite that struck in Siberia on June, 1908 suggest that this explosion would have caused “considerable stirring of the high layers of atmosphere and change its structure”. Such meteoic disruption was the trigger for the subsequent rise in global temperatures. As such, Shaidurov has concluded that only an enormous natural phenomenon, such as an asteroid or comet impact or airburst, could seriously distrub atmospheric water levels, destroying persistent so-called “silver”, or noctilucent, clouds composed of ice crystals in the high altitudes mesosphere (50 to 85). The Tunguska Event was just such an event, and coincides with the periods of time during which global tempertures appear to have been rising the most steady in the twentieth century. There are many hypothetical mechanisms of how this mesosphere catastrophic might have occurred, and future research is needed to provide a definitive answer. There may be an international and economical reasons for the Russian Academy of Sciences to project through Vladimir Shaidurov his theory for global warming. It could be Russia is going through some hardships financially since the down fall of the Soviet Union and the need for them to market their vast amounts of gas and oil resourses to maintain their position as a great power around the world are vigorously down playing the gas and oil aspects of global warming to advance their own agenda.
There are many issues concerning global warming to name a few: is the climate and temperture changing, is human/industrial activity responsible for the change, and to what extent, what are the effects of the carbon dioxide emissions, the size, effect and consequences of climate change. In the United States global warming is often a partisan political issue. Republicans tend to oppose action against a threat that they regard as unproved, while Democrats tends to support actions that they believe will reduce global warming and its effects.
The existence of a huge scientific consensus is over-wheiming that there is global warming that is effecting the entire globe. There have been temperture measurements records recorded for many many years to back up the rise in global temperture. The causes of these temperture increases have been scientifically found to relate to the greenhouse gases and almost undisputed by the majority of the scientific community, although there may be another contributing factor, solar activity. But predictions on how and when the climate and temperture will change is unpredictable. The debate on global warming is over and it is now time to get on with the business of doing something about it, for the sake of mankind. William in Alabama.
Why is the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) relying on the food producers to police themselves? The contamination of the nation’s food supply which has led to disease outbreaks that have killed 3 people and sickened hundreds is a shame. It seems the FDA is incapable of protecting the safety of the food supply and this Bush administration isn’t doing anything but blowing hot air and smirking at the American people and doing very little to stem this outrage. They contend there is nothing that can be done about the problem.
There is a problem in California with hogs that have eaten feed laced with Melamine an industrial chemical that resulted in the deaths of some pets. The FDA have not yet determined if this is a threat to humans. There has been a recall of over 100 different brands of pet food. These outbreaks should prompt the FDA to change it’s way of doing business in a way that will insure the nation’s food supply. This Bush administration and many of
the sinister Republicans are sure dropping the ball here, and it seems like they are just passing the buck, and even claiming the problem is just to big to handle.
The House Energy and Commerce subcommitte is planning to have hearing on these flood of recalls of pet feed. The Bush administration and the Republicans do not want any more regulations, and not inclined to spent the money. This administration’s hostility towards the government is going to hinder the FDA getting a handle on this problem. The Congress should bring forth legislation to account for the FDA’s accountability as well as this badly led administration role in this matter.
The FDA inspectors who checks into these types of problems allowed the companies who produce the pet feed to refuse them documents they were seeking, and the FDA inspectors just up and left and never followed-up. This is a shame and very dangerous to the food safety of pets and humans.
Bush and his Republican coharts seem not to care. Last August 400 people were sickened in 44 states caused by Salmonella contamination from moisture from a roof leak and a faulty sprinkler system.
This Democratic controlled Congress should step up to the plate concerning these as well as other issues confronting the government before it will be to late to do anything about them, because it seems this administration believes that it can do the American people anyway it chooses. In my opinion there should be impeachment of Bush coming out of this Congress, the sooner the better. These elite rich fat cat Republicans
who blindly goes along with Bush no matter what the cost and suffering of the American people also need to be brought before the bar of justice and justice served where they cannot continue to prey up on the American people. William in Alabama.
In my opinion, a lying and incompetent Attorney General Alberto Gonzales along with the Congress, and the President of the United States has lost the confidence of the American people. This is the most partisan administration every. It is about time that Congress get subpoenas for the various advisors and others to testify under oath and in public about a host of crimes, distortions, misgivings, lies, and down right dishonesty. Although the partisan Attorney General Alberto Gonzales would have to approve any subpoenas refused by any of the President’s people.
This Congress who had a mandate to change the course of the American government, but are doing just as bad as the Republican-led 109 Congress. All this Democratic controlled Congress it seems wants to do is rip, rage, and bray endlessly without any affect on the course of our government. There seems to be no sense of propose in Washington D.C. these days.
The Trade policies of this President are costing the American people millions of jobs, and billions in trade debt, while the American youth are falling further and further behind in their education. This Congress is not doing nothing but engaging in partisan cheap and disgusting political scams and nonsense.
There is not one person in Congress it seems, that has the gall to stand up for the American people. This President and Congress are held in very low esteem by the American people. Things are looking grim around Washington D.C. these days. I personally can’t wait till November 2008 election, maybe the American people will show both Republican and Democrat parties the door and sent them back home, where maybe, they can then begin to compete with the illegal immigrants and other cheap labor, and let the powerful and corrupt corporations and the elite rich and powerful take them for a ride like they are doing to the American people today. The Democrats could if they had the guts, impeach Bush, and end this mindless and luncy of illegal immigration and the squandering of American jobs and assets and bring this senseless and horrible war in Iraq to and end.
In my opinion, the whole system within our government is being controlled by greedy elite and powerful individuals and corporations among others, who are systematically exploiting and causing great harm to the American people. These elite and powerful are getting their perks and kickbacks from the ones that put them in office and that are keeping them there to the extent reminiscent of the nazi Gestapo. Americans who are disabled and on Social Security are not actually considered disabled by this government and are expected to payback loans and other bills, some with very high interest and penalty rates that keep adding up while the person is unemployed; thereby turning simple loans and other debts with high fees and other late charges etc. into a nightmare debt no one who is disabled can afford to pay back. Many of these loans and debts triple from their original amount. When will there ever be action or at least and investigation concerning these matters? When are the Courts of this land going to rein in these Federal agencies and elite, rich, and corrupt individuals and corporation among others that today are seen as “above the law”, out of control and filled with corruption. These matters should have already been brought out by the news media and others, but it seems the media and politicians of today are all in bed with these elite, rich and corrupt individuals and corporations, while our government gives billions of dollars in aid around the world to many questionable groups and activies. That aslo wage an unjust war in Iraq costing the American citizens billions and billions of taxpayers dollars that could instead be going to the millions of suffering American people.
This government it seems in the area of education, the Department of Education should change its logo to state its real business: “ helping to break up American families and keep our kids in debt”.
The American people despite the exploits of the government and the elite, rich, and corrupt individuals and corporations among others are somehow surviving, but it requires both spouses working to put food on the table at the detriment of their children. There are now three jobs in the American family, two carreers plus parenting. You could say that family life is beginning to initate the downsizing of the American family office. This means parents and their children live apart most of the time. Most children almost never see their parents together. When they are together they are always busy with lessons, classes, games, etc.. Mothers and Dads bear the childrearing responsibilities, even while working full time. All this is eroding families from within, and playtime, conversation, courtesy, and intimacy are falling by the way side. Today the children are having to drive the cars to their activities because both parents are working. It is very unlikely that many of these kids will grow up to be competent and commpassiate adults. Most households with two parents who work outside their homes, pay a mortgage, and have two or three school-aged children. The families of today are barely if not falling behind in maintaining their family structure and well being. It seems that the family members of today do not have time for each other anymore. This brings these comments to the question of the economy.

Both Parties Stand on Immigration The Democrats say they remain committed to real comprehensive immigration reform that tough and smart, whatever that means? They say it means reform that strengthens our borders, protects workers and their wages, and that it will make it possible for immigrants (I guess illegal or not?) who pay taxes and obey the law to earn the responibilities of citizenship. This statement by the leaders of this great Democratic Party is inflammatory and down right unamerican. It seem that the President and his despot Republican are not the only ones tripping over their feet on immigration reform. The Democratic Presidential candidates also have danced all over the map on this issue, seemingly copying the Republicans tactic of divide and scapegoat in the hopes of winning over the progressive Democratic voters in the Democratic primary. I believe that the Republicans as bad as I have to say this as a Democrat, are beginning to see the big picture when it comes to immigration reform. Some of these Republicans are abandoning the immigration Bill that was in part sponsered by Senator Ted Kennedy, not because of conservative pressure, but out of the sense that illegal is unlawful and unlawful is prosecutable under the United States Constitution and the laws thereof. If any person enters the United States illegally that person should should be arrested, fined and if necessary jailed, and then deported. Futher, if any person is found to have aided, abetted, employed, or assist an individual to enter and stay in the United States illegally then that individual should be tried in a U.S. Court of law
and if found guilty fine that person or persons servely and if warranted place in jail for a good amount of time as presribed by law.
The leadership of this great Democratic Party should take a real hard look at your so-called immigration reform measures because if you don’t make some major changes this Party will lose the next Presidential election and lose your majority in Congress. This issue of illegal immigration or what ever you want to call it is not going away. There are to many hard working Americans suffering from all these million of illegal in our country. They do not belong here if they came illegally. If they want to come to America to get employment thats fine, just go through the proper procedures of immigration set up by our government that has managed it for a long long time without any problems until the “Decider” was appointed to be the President. Further, if a women enters the United States illegally and give birth to a child then both of them should be deported, and I firmly believe that there is no need in building a fence or wall along our borders. There are many other ways of securing our borders than this unamerican and insane barriers purposed by some in Congress.
I would like to say to this Party’s leaders that I respect people all over the world, and feel sorry for those in poverty and seeking a better life. We donate more goods and services to people all over the world out of respect and kindness. But to open up our borders to million upon million of people is in reality an impossible to sustain and our country will cease to exist. If the leaders do not see this logic we all are in for a huge surprise. Wake up Democrats and smell the roses while you can.
Both the Democrats and Republicans are falling all over themselves trying to convince likely voters where they stand, to me it a big put on and kinda funny in a way that grown men and women would even consider allowing illegals inside out country. I guess here we go again lining up illegals in the voting lines again. These illegals could care less about America if they did they would immigrate legally. Please you leaders of the Democratic party quit walking on the thin line or the center of the fence, and get on the side of right and legal not on the side of crime and unlawful. This is about the only issue that I disagree with the Democratic Party, but this one is far the heart and soul of the Democrats who have always supported the working men and women of these United States. Wake up Democrats before you miss the boat. William in Alabama
The Bush administration, Republican Party, and some in the Democratic Party leadership are mounting an all out assaut upon the American people, by promoting a luncy immigration of illegals into the United States.
The main-stream media are not it seems,investigating or even care about the extreme impact and damage that ilegal immigration is perpetrating upon the citizens of the United States. Why doesn’t the people of our government and the media bring up the important questions and find some answers on the issue of illegal imigration?
For an examble: Who is the responsibe party for our nation to be over run by illegal immigration? And why and for what reason are the one responsible for enforcing our laws and the U.S. Constitution not being brought out into the sunshine, and held accountable for allowing the laws of this land, of the free, under law, left unchecked and at times even praised for turning their head and looking away , while our nation is being flooded with illegal immigrants that the government or the people know so little about? Are we as a nation allowing ourselves be taken over from within?
The Main-Stream media seems to be turning a blind eye to all of this, and are muddling and down-playing these issues just as they did about the war in Iraq. Just look at the cost in lives and assets that it has costed , and is still mounting, but this illegal immigration debacle is going to be ten fold more costly in lives and assets of the American people. These media folk seem to be own by the elite, rich, and mostly greedy Republicans who are waging psychology and psycho-social warfare upon the good citizens of this country, with their jargon, subliminal messages and quips. There are some in our government who are pressuring our government employees to do as told or else lose their jobs this is done very discreetly and often as an example: The lady down in Alabama who spoke her mind as an American citizen about the concerns of the way the American people should vote, She did nothing illegally but was fired from her job just the same. This to me is the same tactic used in Nazi Germany in the 1930’s and 1940’s. John Kery thank goodest recused her from this tyrannical camlity, in which the midia slimed over this as it was just other petty thing, but this American will not let this kind of abuse by the national parties go unchallenged. This was a crisis of momumental perportion.
The media is very often using terms such as : guest workers, entrants, undocumented immigrants, poor children, and women who are all in this country illegally, but insist they are as they put it immigrants, just playing with words and attempting to fool the people of the U.S. again to line these illegals in the voting lines of the next coming elections. We the people of these United States had better throw off these chains of oppression and throw these rascals out of office either by impeachment or otherwiise
IT IS THIS AUTHOR OPINION THAT IF A PERSON OR PERSONS ENTERS THE UNITED STATES ILLEGALLY : THEY SHOULD BE ARRESTED, FINED AND IF NECESSARY INCARCERATED, AND DEPORTED.
FURTHER, IF ANY PERSON OR PERSONS AIDS, ABETS, EMPLOYS, ARE ASSIST IN ANYWAY, THAT PERSON OR PERSONS SHOULD BE ARRESTED,
SERVELY FINED, AND.INCARCERRATED AS PRESCRIBED BY THE LAWS OF THIS LAND.
THE BUCKS STOPS ON THESE MATTER WITH THE ‘DECIDER’ GEORGE BUSH AND SHOULD THERFORE BE IMPEACHED ACCORDING TO THE LAWS AND CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, FOR THE GOOD OF OUR GREAT GOVERNMENT THAT IS FOR AND BY THE PEOPLE........................*

USA Today argues that U.S. farmers’ decision to plant “corn in place of other crops to cash in on the ethanol craze” will cost the average American because it will cause the price of other crops to increase. This Congress it seems are watering down a proposed bill that would tighten fuel economy standards, and went as far as to say some changes in the 1978 Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act that was proposed by the Bush administration makes sense and would refrain from any adverse reaction.
Ethanol is an alcohol made from corn, sugar cane, or other plant matter. Ethanol is one method among many others of powering an engine that does not envolve a distilled petroleum product. The growing concerns about the effects of pollution from vehicle exhaust and the Greenhouse effect have greatly increased the interest in ethanol as an alternative fuel. The protroleum industries are vehemently against any source of alternative fuel such as ethanol. But, as many people that are in favor of ethanol far out number the few in the petroleum industries who are strongly against it because oil and gas is that industries life line. But, ethanol would be one alternative fuel that could and would be a reliable way of easying the U.S. dependence on foreign oil and gas supplies.
Ethanol is generally made in the U.S. from corn and denatured, or mix with gasoline during the winter or in cold climates, ethanol is sold in a 75% mixture with 15% gasoline. During warmer seasons and in warm climates, the ethanol used is 85% ethanol with 15% gasoline, and is generally marketed as “ E-85”. There are many good reasons to develop and use ethanol, among which are reduced on petroleum products, reduced dependence on global supplies, and the reduction of greenhouse emissions, to name a few. To develop and refine ethanol is one thing, but the ability to distribute it and adapt it for use to a specific vehicle or application is an entirely different challenge altogether, so says the “petroleum industries” who are mostly owned and operated by the elite rich and powerful
greedy corporations with the help of these despot Republicans as well as this current administration headed by the “Decider” George Bush.
The adage of supply and demand of course will continually drive the development of ethanol and other alternative fuels, but the oil and gas industry are doing everything in their power , to delay, postpone, cause problems and the like to stop or at least slow up the progress already made in most of all the alternative fuels industry. One of the main argument of the petroleum industry is that it costs as much, if not more as gasoline and petroleum products, more for plants, and the cultivation harvest and process of the grain than it saves in gasoline savings is not so good, but, to many this is just a bunch of hogwash and deception that these gas and oil producers with the help of the Republicans which the industry has bought and paid for their support to promote. The gas and oil companies of today are secretly paying off these elite politicians Republicans mostly to stop or stall and slow up the advancement of any alternative fuels such as ethanol to the determent of all Americans, and in my opinion this is down right unAmerican.

The gas and oil companies of today are secretly paying off these elite politicians Republicans mostly to stop or stall and slow up the advancement of any alternative fuels such as ethanol to the determent of all Americans, and in my opinion this is down right unAmerican.

Just about all the main stream media networks are not as diverse as they should be. But I do not see this as the major problem. On the issue of women and people of color there is a lacking of their presence in the newsrooms and other positions throughout the industries of the media’s networks. Idiosyncrasy and basis abounds throughout the industry. Most news media networks are owned and operated lock, stock, and barrel by the elite rich, powerful and corrupt executives. These corporate executives carefully screen and program all the people who are the talking heads and caretakers of their corporations particular women and people of color
The power of the news media is by far the most powerful manipulators of public opinion in America and throughout the free world. They come into every home in America 24 hours a day, seven days a week, and three-hundred-sixty-five days a year shaping and moulding public opinion in different and various ways. The media tells the public whats going on around the world and what we should, and how we should think or what image and meaning we should get from them. They most of the time portray an event or image having or showing a keenness about small differences in meaning, and cleverly craft or veil mysterious in their words and meanings. They the media are always vigilantly managing and throughly concealing the real meaning and appropriateness of the news. They dictate how the news is covered, what to talk about, and what not to talk about, what the public sees and the amount of time that the public sees it. The people who control the media apply and use subliminally messages, choose their words very carefully, which greatly affects the way the public interprets, see, hear, and feel. The talking heads on most of the networks develop careful select psycholgical techniques to help sway and guide the public’s thoughts and opinions, thereby letting the public know what their attitudes and behavior should be toward various events, people, images, etc. so they will react in a way most favorable to themselves.
The molding of the public’s opinions gives the media a way to gain respect for a certain race, class, act etc. or a particular view on a particular subject or issue, or to chasitise a particular group or an individual. The media is most times seeking to improve or impair the public’s right to know or not to know the truth on any question or issue. Their objective is to gain mind control through bias and insidious things to manipulate the differ groups in the relm of the public. They not only slant what is presented, but also establish tacit boundries and ground rules for the permissible spectrum of opinion. Almost all the media spokepersons or taking heads take the position that “multiculturalism” is here to stay The public doesn’t realize that their thoughts are being manipulated, to their determent. All or most of the control of opinion is perpetrated by most all the media by speaking as one voice, applying just a little difference here and there.
There really is not much dissent or differ sources of facts available to the mass public, you either see it their way, or not at all. This minipulation of facts and events is to control the public and guide them to their ideaology and how to vote and react to differ situations.
These all powerful elite rich, and corrupt media’s executives who mostly control the Republican Party in the United States are profit-driven capitalist with the Jewish state playing an important overwheming role on what is seen and heard throughout the U.S. and around the world. The Fox News Channel is a key outlet pushing the Neo-Conservative agenda that lies behind the Iraq war and which animates both the Administration of George Bush and the “New Conservatism” that embraces multiracialism. There are some that say the Jewish media control determines the foreign policy of the United States by allowing the Jewish interest to decide, rather than American interest on the issues of war and peace. Morality and religion plays and important role in the news media of today.
The control of the news media is controlled by a very few individuals and corporations, and is slowly but surely turning the Constitutional government of the United States into an oligarchy type of government. The American people you would think would see through all this, but to their determint have allowed it to go on for so long and are now powerless to do anything about it. Even our elections are riddled with corruption, gerrymandering, fraud and down right being bought off to the highest bidder. But, one can look to a higher power and get the relief from these despots and return back this nation of, for, and by the people that the wise and honorable men that created it in the late 1700’s.

It is my opinion the President violations of the public trust through illegal wiretapping program, and his failure to enforce the United States immigration laws and futher, for the pre-emptive military strike against a country that was not a threat to the national security, the Congress of the United States should not begin impeachment of either the President or the Vice-President, but instead censure both the President and Vice-President.
The U.S. Congress should begin censureship actions against President Bush for him authorizing the illegal wiretapping program and his misleading the nation about it. There is clear and convincing evidence of President Bush undermining of the separation of powers and ignoring the rule of law. If this Congress does not at least censure Bush they must and will be held accountable for condoning his actions, and undermining both the separation of powers and the rule of law. Bush is in my opinion in direct violation of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA). The question is not about wheather the government should be wiretapping at all, but that it already has the power and authority to do so under current law, but Bush the “Decider” decided to break the law, and has placed himself above the Constitution and the laws that govern the lives of all American citizens. The President has failed since illegally obtaining the Presidency by the appointment to the Presidency by the Republican controlled Supreme Court of this land. It is my firm opinion that in America Presidents and Vice-Presidents are elected by the people and not appointed or assigned to those offices as in the case of both officials Bush and Cheney.
The ignoring of U.S. immigration laws and the violations that allowed upwards of 20 million illegal immigrants to flood into this country causing great harm, suffering, and cost to the American workers and the American citizens. The majority of Americans in my opinion that were polled four out of five polled support Bush and Cheney being either impeached and/or censured by Congress. It seems the Democrats leaders in Congress have indicated they have no intention of impeaching Bush or Cheney. For a President to be impeached for “high crimes and misdemeanors”, formal charges known as Articles of Impeachment, which states the allegations, are introduced at the House of Representatives where they may be debated and, if consensus for a vote is reached, voted upon then if any of the Articles are approved by a simple majority, then the President is considered “impeached”, and would then be tried in the Senate to determine his innocence. If he were determined to be guilty he would be removed from office and the Vice-President would immediately be sworn in as President, which would be Richard Cheney. The President or the Vice-President could be impeached in one day, in the morning a member of the House could propose one or more Articles of Impeachment and could vote by a simple majority (50%) plus one vote is all that is needed to impeach either the President or the Vice-President in the House of Representatives, and that afternoon the Senate could try the case. A two-thirds vote is needed in the Senate to convict. Ejecting a person from high office is political, not judical. The only punishment that can be administered ny Congress is removal from office. However, if after being found guilty of “high crimes and misdemeanors” and removal from office they maybe tried in a Court for violations of laws that were broken.
President Gerald Ford in my opinion was correct when he said in 1970 that, “ an impeachable offense is whatever the majority of the House of Representatives considers it to be at any given moment in its history”. There is no good argument against impeaching a Vice-President based upon the notion that the person of greater authority- the President should take responsibility for whatever happens in his/her administration. The Senate is procedurally bound only by the rules it makes for itself. The House and Senate may determine the Rules of its’ proceedings, justice does not play a part. The President and Vice-President holds onto office at the pleasure of Congress. The Congress have never impeached a Vice-President, but have impeached two Presidents, but the Senate failed to convict either . There was one President who resigned rather than face impeachment Richard Nixon. In regards to Vice-President Cheney there is no reason to hold back impeachment because of prosecution of his former assistant Mr. Lewis Libby for alleged crimes, but any impeachable offense brought forward against the Vice-President have to be be of a type pertaining specifically to him. Futher, the President could not pardon Cheney to thwart the process of impeachment. Cheney could seek a Presidential pardon right now, and Bush could in fact be holding a batch of signed (and witnessed) pardons in his desk at this very moment in advance of Cheney being convicted of any crime. Futher, President Bush would play the Constitution for all it is worth, and use the bargaining chips that Presidential power gives him that he could use in difficult or dangerous circumstances. The Vice-President options would be if impeachment talk begins, would be immediately start correcting any offending behaviors or try to get the President ejected from office, in which case he himself would become President. If a Vice-President dies, resigns, or is impeached, the President can nominate any American born citizen, age 35 or older, but must be confirmed by a majority in both Houses of Congress before the person can be sworn in as the new Vice-President.
The people should begin talking it up and seeking publicity for the idea of persuading a Congressperson to purpose impeachment. There have been numerous calls by the public calling for the impeachment of Bush and Cheney as well as others in this current administration with thousands of citizens who have signed a petition sponsored by former Attorney General Ramsey Clark. There recently has been others in Congress seeking impeachment of the Vice-President and President as well as other high ranking officials in the Bush administration. The Vice-President is in an ongoing civil suit that ask for criminal penalties under the “Racketeer Influnced and Corrupt Organizations Act pending in the U.S. Federal District Courts. The case “Rodriquez v. Bush case is hardly ever mentioned in the main stream media, but it is available on the internet.
A Congressman Dennis Kucinich a Democrat from Ohio has announced a series of charges against Vice-President Cheney alleging that Vice-President has committed a series of impeachable offenses and has introduced Articles of Impeachment against him in Congress. The Ohio Democrat described his move as intended to provide a “defense of the rights of American people to have a government that is honest and peaceful”. Rep. Kucinich excoriated the Vice-Presdent who he said was “ a driving force for taking us into war against Iraq under false pretenses, and is once again rattling sabers of war against Iran, with the same intent to drive Americans into war again based on false pretenses”. Rep. Kucinich submitted as House Resolution 333, The first concerned manipulation of intelligence about Iraq’s threat to the United States. The second concerned manipulation of intelligence on the Iraq-Al-Quida relationship. The last and third concerned manipulation was what Rep. Kucinich called having “openly threatened aggression against the Republic of Iran”. He further went on to say that the charges were “deeply researched” and insisted that his accusations were not just a political stunt, and the charges were not brought forth lightly and weighted his options as a member of Congress and that this path was the most important for him to take.
The Democrats leaders in Congress are saying that “President Bush was not worth the efforts, because impeachment proceedings would be a distraction from passing Democratic policies that would insure the Party’s future political victory, and the election of a Democratic President and improving the majority the Democrats have in Congress. Rep. Kucinich was quoted as saying “ there is a very practical reason each and every charge relates to Vice-President Cheney’s conduct or misconduct in office”, and added “ it is very important that we start with Mr. Cheney because if we were to start with the President Mr. Cheney would then become President. Further, Rep. Kucinich went on to say “we’d have to go through the Constitutional agony of impeaching two Presidents consecutively”.
The indictment or criminal prosecution of a President or Vice-President would impermissibly undermine the capacity of the executive branch to perform its constitutionally assigned functions, and the Vice-President is fair game. While the President is immune from indictment, the Vice-President is not, since the conviction of the Vice-President would not disrupt the workings of the executive branch of government. The Congress should not impeach either the President or Vice-President simpley for the reasons that it would be like the Democrats leaders have stated “ President and the Vice-President are not worth the effort and it would be a huge distraction from passing other important Bills and policies, and would cause the country to have to go through so much turmoil and costs. The way it should in my opinion be handled is for Congress to Censure both the the President and Vice-President and let them sit up in their offices and twittle their thumbs till their terms in office expires, and then bring any criminal and civil charges against either of the two. So, Democrats censure Bush and Cheney and get on with the important business of the people as you promised the American people who voted you into office. William in Alabama.

Abortion Rights
Everyone at some time in their lives face difficult and deeply personal questions in relationships with other enitities and individuals. Most times this usally comes down to matters of right and wrong or good and evil. At times a person faces a tough problem and must choose between two ways of resolving it. Each alternative is the right thing to do. But there is no way to do both. Both ways raise questions about personal integrity and moral identity, conflicts between responibilities for others and important personal valves, and perhaps the most challenging, those involving responibilities a person shares with other persons or groups in society.
Most people are enmeshed in networks of ongoing relationships. Many people have complicated dealing with oranizations, churches, clubs, schools, home, etc.. These networks of relationships bring with it the responibilities that requires legitimate and constant vigilance in a particular relationship. Sometimes these conflicts can turn into a votex of controversy. For an example, if a woman truly believes that a she has a inallenable right to have an abortion and the male who impregnates her does not except her right to have an abortion, and truly believes that an abortion is the taking of a life , and his religion beliefs are such that prohibits him from excepting it does cause great and unreconcilable differences between the two. This controversy is not uncommon in todays
society. This places the two at a crossroad. How does the two differences come to some sort of Compromise, or is it even possible?
Essentially, abortion is based on one of two beliefs. One, that human life, in the form of anvum and speratozoon, becomes a human person at the time of conception. Two, that human life becomes a person after conception, perhaps when the fetus looks human, or becomes sentient, or is born, or is functioning independent of it mother. Whether an abortion is good are bad, right are wrong is the question one must answer. Ther are many facets to this issue and evolves ethic, religion, sience, philosophy, any morality among many other factors and effects governments, and all aspects of life on the planet earth.The is no one answer that will satisfy everyone and to most no room for compromising on this issue.
All life is a living entity that has Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) that contains the genetic instruction for the devolopment and functioning of living organisms. All living things contain DNA genomes. A possible exception is a group of viruses that have Ribonucleic acid (RNA) genomes. The main role of DNA in the cell is the long-term storage of information. The genome is often compared to a set of blueprints, because it contains the information and instructions to contruct other components of the cell, such as proteins and RNA molecules. The DNA segments that carry this genetic information is called Genes. But, other DNAsequences have structual purposes, or are involved in regulating the expression of genetic information. DNA is a long ployer. The major function of DNA is to decode the sequence of amino acid residues in protiens, using the gentic code. To read the gentic code, cells make a copy of a streach of DNA in the nucleic acid RNA. The basic elements of the foundation of life are that there is no death in theDNA replication process, and there is no new life created during the replication process. All living DNA today has been alive since the first life, and all the cells in the humam body contain the same life, so it can be said that there is only one life and it is shared by all living things, Therefore, a philosophy that satisfies the needs of the human must also include all other life. Mutations do not alter the fact that the same life is carried foward when DNA replicates, even though the form of the resulting organism has changed. If a man-made machine forms a new string of DNA which is a direct copy of an existing living form and it lives it is the same life that dwells within this new string as human human’s concept of the human, and its position in the universe, is the DNA which has been copied. The human’s concept of the human, and its position in the universe, is basic to all cultural though. It is not that the human need to take care of all other life as a moral obligation, though that is true, it is that the human is a small part of life, but one which possesses a characteric (intelligence) which is valuable to the survival and well being of all life. It was life which developed that intelligence, not the human, therfore its service is for all not merly the human. The human is, in that sense, a servant to life, a caretaker in the service of life, the good shephard for all life. The human is a vessel for DNA and exist only for its keeping. Hence, life comes form a single source.
Light traveling through a mixture of gases foms amio acid, which then become concentratrd in an organic soup and link together to form the first living cell has been shown to be not true. First, no proteins will form outside of a cell. The evidence indicates that the information in DNA was put there by a creator who is intelligent that we should listen to everything he has to say. In order for a cell to live it must separate itself from the water around it, take food in and expel waste. Futher, it must use food to make the energy and materials that the cell needs to do it work, and the working part that permits the cell to do these things. The cell must contain the information that directs these activities, and must be able to reproduce itself. Not one of the main ingredients of cells, proteins, cell membranes, DNA, RNA, or information will form in nature except in already living cells. If one part could have formed, it would have broken down while it was waiting for the others. Life came about almost exactly at the same time and location, and would have immediately teamed up to form life.
Almost everyone who are seiously involved in the sciences are convinced that a spirit is present in the laws of the universe, a spirit way superior to that of man, and we all with our modest powers must feel humble. This way the pursuit of science and knowledge lead to religious feeling in a way which is quite different from the religiosity of someone more naive. But those who seriously pursuit of science are convinced that a spirit is in the laws of the universe, one that is vastly superior to that of man and all should be humble. The pursue of science leads to a religious feeling that are unique and special and is quite different from the religiosity of others. This misunderstanding comes from faulty translations particular the word “mystical”. Nature a purpose or goal or anything that could be understood as the practice of thinking of gods, animals, or certain inanimate thing as having huma form or characteristics. Nature is a magnificent structure that we only understand rather imperfectly, that fill a person with feelings of humility. This is a feeling that has nothing to do with mysticism. To find a purpose of an individual and of mankind as a whole there is no reasonable answer if the question is asked this way. In such cases the goal of an action and the fullfillment of desires of the individuals which constitute a society. It is how very reasonable and quite important to ask ourselves how we shoul conduct our lives. The answer of course is the satisfaction and needs of all, as for as this can be achieved in harmony and beauty of human relationships. It is therfore understandable that the Greeks and Oriental sages were more ideas and great thinker than in our schools and universities today.The mystical tendency of our time, some have said it show itself basically in rampent growth of Theosophy and Spiritualism, is weakness and confusion.
All life is is an entity that has DNA, in humans DNA from the species homo sapiens. The main issue when it comes to abortion is about whether a zygote, embro, or fetus is a human life, and that does it have a right to live. So the question becomes, when does life start? Some say life begin in the beginning, when motion created time, and there is but one life and that life is a continuum of that life which begin in the beginning. which is the thread of life. DNA. This brings us to the question does a woman have the right before the life inside her is born into this world, have the right to abort that pregnancy? The woman and man are part of the same life from the moment of creation, and even animal life or for that matter all living things are part of the first life born at the creation.
When a life is deformed or diseased even other than human being such as animals when given birth to a deformed offspring or a diseased one will be put to death by it mother. The creator gave unto all the ability to reason and make decision that effect our lives including the right of a mother to take from her that she feels is unwanted for what ever reason, this is between her and her creator. Only her Creator can judge if she is wrong or right. If she kills the thread of her own life it is suicide, but getting rid of a portion of a unwanted or whatever else that is unwanted and her life can continue on is between her the man that impregnated her and their God. But once a life has entered into this world the woman nor the man has no right to harm or kill that child, because at birth that once fetus is now a person with all its rights preserved.
Who are we? On moral grounds should we avoid the misery and risks of stavation resulting from a surging population? What are the responsilities
of a womam that has a life growing inside of her body? The right of the mother to become pregnant or not is a factor that has great and awesome responsibilities for her to contemplate. But if for any reason that woman should decide not to have a child born into this world then this question is answered. The life that is created the life in her become a part of her, and what entity has the power to tell her she must have that child except her creator. No person, government, religion, or anyone else has the power or authority to over-rule or force her to not have an abortion.
Ther seems to be no balance which represents a deep moral idea in a world of inescapable conflicts. Political virtues are in fact necessary in all matters where human morality and interest are destined to clash. The issue of abortion is an ethical topic because it involves a specific type of controverial behavior. It depends on principles such as the right of self rule and the right to life, which is the litmus test for determining the morality of abortion procedures. The issue of abortion is also metaethical issues such as”where do rights come from”? and “ what kind of beings have rights”? even luck or chance plays a role. Sometimes it is these sort of issues in application to apply ethic to the question of abortion in determining public policy to ask is getting an abortion right or wrong? what are human rights? and how do we determine them? Futher, do animals have right as well? A more specific question may be asked, “if someone else can make better out of his/her life than I can, is it then moral to sacrifice myself for them if needed? To these questions there are no clear answers.
Consequences of personal choices may impact on others. One’s choices often effect one’s ethics. Postive and negative choices effect one’s life and therefore one’s ethics. Abortion are permissible by law in the United States
for any reason a woman chooses, up untill the point of which the fetus becomes viable, that is able to live outside the womb of a woman and should be made available to any woman to protect her health. Ther are some that believe abortion is illegitimate for straying from the text and history of the U.S. Constitution, and that imposing abortion policy on the states and Congress is contray to American principles of Federalism and democrary. Others believe failing to recongnize the personhood of fetal human life, either beginning at conception or later. Others point out and properly so that abortion is vital to preservation of womens equaility, personal freedom, and privacy as well as a god given right to do what is fit and proper when it comes down to wellbeing of the thread of life that is so delicate and beautiful and is a continuing journey into the far and wide abyss.

Separation Of Church And State
Separation of church and state in the United States is a political and legal doctrine. The U.S. Constitution protects religion from intrusion or coercion of the state. But little protection against the Republican Party adventurism and hypocritical dealings in matters and manner of churches and religious oranizations. Separation of church and state in the United States is a political and legal doctrine that government and religious institutions are separate entities as set forth in the First Amendment of the United States Constitution: “ Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof”....
The practical distinction between government and religion is essential for the purity of both, and the Constitution guarantees that no one may be compelled to finance religion. And further, that no one shall be compelled or denied his right to support whatever religion that does not effect his civil capacities. Separation of church and state occurs through legal and voluntary separation, such as teaching and the practice of religion doctrines and ceromonies and the like should be confined either to the church and/or home. But still the issue has and is being played out in the Courts all over the world. The government should not aid religion and religion should not use government as a pulpit to teach it’s beliefs and doctrines. There are gray areas that seem to be acceptable to many such as the slogan on U.S money “ IN GOD WE TRUST” and other slogans and sayings on mouments, and buildings as well as the saying of prayer in schools and other public places. There are also many who disagree with some or all these intrustions by religion into government. Although, religion does not have a say in government, likewise, government does not have a say in religion. But there are few exceptions, for an example: during a disaster, helping to feed the hungry, etc. the government and the different religious groups do aid and assist one another in many of these endeavors.
Who really knows how many millions of lives throughout history have been maimed, tortured, and killed in the name of religion. Yet sociality has not advanced one ioto toward anything resembling a peaceful uniformity or coexistence among government and religion. And any power confided to one will be exerted in opposition to either of their schemes. Religion is a matter which lies solely between a person and their God, and owes no account to none other than for his faith and worship and that is why there should be a “wall of separation “ between religion and the state. From all over the vastness of time and space a greater power controls the infinity of eternity. Through the eyes of history this has always been true. All things are related each to the other but not necessary absolutely. All valves are relative and different according to circumstances and object of fact, so to does the relationship of church and state.
Most all politicians today use religion in one form or another to help them gain their position in government are elsewhere, especially the elite, rich, and powerful and usually corrupt demagoguers, such as the neo-conservative Republicans of today who have systematically in my opinion throughly projected the Republican Party into nearly all the religious establishments throughout the country, blurring the “wall of separation of church and state”.
Many of these so-called conservative Republicans seem to believe that you must be a christian to become President or Congressperson. These hypocritical Republicans tout their religion to the public, but when it comes to their personal lives it a different story. For an example one of these Republicans who constantly condemned and demagogued President Clinton for his morals Republican Newt Gingrich, who himself has been married three times and has admitted having an extra-marital affair shows just how some of these Republican
neo-con hyprocrites have become. There are enough examples of all the distasteful, disgraceful, and disgusting transgressions that have been committed
by these Republicans that 500 volumes of books would fill if anyone cared enough about to write and film. These want a be leaders and “yes” people are to me sick and ego centered morons who use religion as a tool for their pleasures.
It has been prophesied by some religions that “ everyone must submit himself to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which God has established. The authorities that exist have been established by God. Consequently, he who rebels against authority is rebelling against what God has instituted, and those who do so will bring judgment on themselves”. All factions concerned with the issue of separation of church and state are showing little if any wisdom and fidelity to the country’s valves, and are enlarging the divide that separates the many divisions of thought and beliefs when it comes to the First Amendment of the United States Constitution, and particularly the issue of separation of church and state.

Immigration The immigrant that comes to America first and foremost should come legally and through the United States ports of entry. They should each and everyone follow all immigration laws, customs, and policies, and come here in good faith to become an american citizen and assimilate him/her self among the people of the United States, where he/she should be treated with the same equality as everyone else. There should be no discrimination against any such person because of his creed, birthplace, or orgin, but that person must become an American citizen.
Any person that comes to the United States and becomes an American citizen should do so without any allegiance to any other, except to the United States of America. Dual citizenship is not acceptable under any circumstances. There is but one flag, one language, and the only loyalty is that person’s loyalty to the American people.
Will there every be a solution to the immigration problem here in the United States? Virtually no one but the Congress and the current administration supports the current system that has plague the United States and its people for over 15 years. One would expect a meaningful change should have been years ago. The Republican party are using the Immigration issue as a “wedge issue”, the same way they have used abortion and gun control in the pass. There are powerful money interest and political interest which support this current immigration policy. The present system provides an illegal, constant, steady, flow of low wage labor force depriving the American families and their government billions upon billions of dollars in costs, assets, and lives. This immigration crisis could be resolved very quickly through simple enforcement of the nation’s immigration laws and border security. The disadvanages of immigration are great, there is poverty, more educational cost, medical cost, lower unskilled wage levels, increase danger of terrorism, and the list goes on and on. There should be a limit on how many immigrates come into this country, and there should be no amnesty or guest worker program. Amnesty and the guest worker would just keep the illegal workers that are already here in place which is upwards of 30 million workers, and open up a flood gate of millions upon millions of more to stream across our borders just to feed these elite, rich, and corrupt employers and their Republican coharts with cheap labor costs, and illegally line them up at the polling places across America to keep the Republican party in power to inslave the American people and set up an oligarchy form of government. These despots have to be stopped! William in Alabama......
Iraq War Costs Approximately 80 percent of the United States national Guard and Reservists are now in Iraq and Afganistan, and more than 84,000 of them have been deployed more than once. A U.S. Airforce Major General Melvyn S. Montano (Retired )has explained, that homeland security begins with home town security, and that we as Americans are responsibile to rebuild our National Guard and make sure they have the equipment and training they need to keep our communities safe.
The President must listen to the American people and acknowledge the fact of the conditions and realities of our security and safety at home and in Iraq. The Republicans could if they had the gall and fortitude to reason and persuade the President to end this terrible war and bring our troops home. The Republicans are the ones who have stayed-the-course with this administration since the year 2001, but who are slowly waking up to the facts on the ground here in the U.S. and in Iraq. The Republican could work with the Democrats on a bipartisan basis to get out of Iraq and bring our National Guard and Reservist home to were they are truly needed.
In the state of California alone, more than $1 billion dollars of military inventory has gone to Iraq, but when the troops are rotated back home the equipment stays in Iraq. The States of the U.S. surely need it`s equipment and vehicles back home now with hurricane season right upon us and toradoes already swirling and pounding the midwest, especially in the state of Kansas where approximately 60 percent of its National Guard equipment is gone because of the war in Iraq. There already has been five tornadoes hit Greenburg, Kansas which was 95 percent distroyed, and the relief process was severely hindered for the lack of equipment and National Guard personel. Kansas as well as many other states are lacking in National Guard equipment and personel and will be more vulnerable if another disaster strikes. With tornadoes in Kansas, fires in California, Georgia, and Florida, and floods in Missouri, we do not have the resourses available are the National Guard personel and equipment to handle a catastrophic event within the country.
The Bush administration vastly underestimated the cost of the Iraq war. Not only in human lives, but monetary and assets as well. The exorbitant cost were due to poor planning and judgment. The United States could end up spending $1 trillion dollars for this war. Thats enough to secure Social Security for many years out in the future. The total bill for the Iraq war according to the Center for Strategic and Budgetary Assessments will equate to $1,205 dollars for each of America s 78 million families, on top of taxes they already pay. The increases in cost can be blamed on the rising cost of maintaining military equipment, and developing new equipment. This huge bill will be taxed upon the American people for years to come.
This Bush administration has proven itself hostile to the American basic rights as guaranteed by the U.S. Constitution and the Bill of Rights. They have allowed this Iraq war to develop into a quagmire reminiscent of the Vietnam war. This administration with the help and support of the Republican party have taken this nation and turned it into a state for the government, by the government, and of the government. This country is one election away from an Oligarchy form of government in which a few persons hold the ruling power and becomes despotism. This is when Americans liberty and freedoms will die.

The Deportation Of Illegals
The bipartisan immigration Bill now before the United States Congress is a slap in the face to the American people and it’s workers. It seems both the Democrats and Republicans want the American people to accept this luncy of a Bill that allows what they claim an estimated 12 million so called “undocumented workers”, when in reality they are illegal immigrants, into this country. The other reality is that the estimation of 12 million illegal immigrants is not correct as this administration and the Congress wants the American people to believe. There are upwards of 30 million illegal immigrants in this country currently. Have these folks lost their minds? Do they really think that the majority of the Americans think that this luncy Bill is good for America and it’s workers? Have any of these Congresspersons and this administration got one ounce of respect for our Constitution and laws?
These illegal immigrants should all be DEPORTED . These elite rich, powerful, and corrupt politicians and this President as well as their coharts in my opinion could care less about the condition or well being of the American people. These despot Congresspersons and the “Decider” want 400,000 more temporary illegal workers per year to come to this country on a two-year visas and require these workers to return home for a year, then allow them to re-enter the country for two more years. Then this can be repeated twice more. Further, these workers could bring their families into the country on a 30 day visitor visas each year, and then earn points somehow toward a “merit-based” green card. This is luncy. These folks in Washington D.C. are out of touch with reality it seems and are putting the American people in a pile of horse munure knee deep and these despots are laughing all the way to their bank.
This crap about the immigration Bill would ensure that border security is strong and that farmers who depend largely on these illegal workers will be able to find work is luncy. If any farmer in this country can not find an American citizen to do the work, then as a suggestion to that farmer that maybe he is in the wrong business here in America. If a farmer can not find an American worker and pay him a wage thats reasonable and that can sustained him and his family, then that farmer should step aside and let another American farmer step-in and replace that farmer who will hire an American worker and pay him adequately for the fruits of his labor even if it means highter prices for the American consumer. These Republicans and some Democrats are whinning and complaining and running around all over the country scarced to death that their coharts corrupt employers who hire these low wage and most time unskilled workers will have to pay an American to do the work and will have to pay a decent and liveable reasonable wage to them that they would covert and break the laws of this country rather than pay an American worker a fair wage is pure luncy and down right hypocritical and unAmerican. This crap about a pathway to citizenship for these illegals immigrants or as these despots like to call them “Undocumentmented workers” amounts to nothing but pure despotism. This large-scale social experimentation attempt by these despots is in affect one of the tactics they are using in their mischievous endeavors and decieving ways of establishing an oligarchy form of government that only benefits these very rich, elite, and corrupt thiefs and robber-barons which are mostly despot Republicans and a few sour Democrats.
A very practical solution and correct way of dealing with this illegal population is DEPORATION
OF ALL ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS WITHIN THE BORDERS AND PROIVIDENCE OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. And futher, while deporting these illegal immigrants our government should secure our borders allowing only those persons legally sanctioned to enter, and set up an immigration system that is fair and just to all the American people no matter at what cost. There is but one America and the folks who live, work, and die for this country do not need or should put up with any illegal immigrant or have to compete for work or provide any assistant to them, except in the deportation of them from among the American people and their country. This “bullcrap ” that an American “ want do the work”, or “can’t find enough American workers to fill the jobs” and other such jargon these despot Congresspersons and this Republican administration is feeding to these bought off and corrupt news media to propagandize their greedy and corrupt agenda to the American people. These elite rich and corrupt despot Republicans and some sour Democrats in Washington D.C. are stepping, sliding, and awash with horse manure up to their knees yelling and screaming carrying on like heathens at a cock fight.
The American people have to much downward pressure on their wages because of unfair trade deals and policies and corporate outsourcing of millions upon millions of jobs each year to foreign countries. The last thing they need now is to have millions upon millions of illegal immigrants competing for their jobs at substandard wages and unsafe and unfair work places. William in Alabama.
U.S. Free Trade Policies There’s nothing free about free trade. The United States trade deficits is higher than any time in history, and is dragging the economic growth down. The U.S. government has accumulated more than $5 trillion dollars in trade debt. For the last 30 tears the U.S. government has been a debtor nation with a trade debt now rising faster than the national debt. The U.S. should implement a new strategy for it’s fiscal and trade policies. The “free trade” policies of the U.S. are the most expensive trade policies thats ever been pursued. With the lost of millions of jobs here in the U.S. to cheap foreign labor markets, putting this country in competetion with some of the world’s most cheapest labor, while corporate America profits have soared to all time highs and have the largest share of the nation’s national income in almost 60 years.
The “free trade” policies the United States is pursuing has resulted in allowing foreign competiters flood the U.S. markets with goods and services, while being shut-out of these competitor’s markets or servely limited in the share of the these competitor’s markets. These practices and policies pursued by the U.S. is detrimental and over-whelming to the U.S. economy and the American people. Last year the U.S. suffered a negative investment flow producing the first investment income deficits on record. These “free trade” policies just aren’t working for the American people. This current U.S. administration and Congress show little willingness to shift or change these luncy policies. The importance of the U.S. trade policies with the rest of the international systems of trade should be well regulated, fair, one that is orderly, and one that best benefits all the American people.
There should be mutuality not isolationism in the United States trade policies, bearing in mind that it should be for the good of all Americans, and not just a few elite, rich, and powerful corporations and individuals that it seems to be benefiting currently. The U.S. government should first look upon the United States as a nation, and second as a economy, and like-wise respresent the American people first and foremost rather than consumers or units of labor. It is my absolute belief the U.S. should revamp it’s trade policies accordingly. William in Alabama.
In my opinion, the demagoguery of the great former President Jimmy Carter by the illegal President currently occupying the oval office George Bush and his corrupt and deceitful administration who in my opinion are attemping to place the American people under the rule of an oligarchy form of government in which a few persons hold the ruling power is pure despotism. In my opinion, President Carter who won a Nobel Peace Prize in 2002 has rightly criticized Bush for his inadequecy and dealings as the President of the United States in an array of statements and accounts conducted by this current Bush administration. The former President Carter has been quoted as saying : “ this Bush administration is had the worst adverse effect on the nation and the world in history”. And he went on and explained that Bush had overseen an “overt reversal of America’s basic valves”.
This out right attack by Bush and his administration that Carter is irrlevant is to me demagoguery at its worst. For Bush and his administration to slander a former President of the United States in this manner is repugnant and disrespectful in my opinion, and it is unamerican for anyone to denounce a person of such high morals, great intellect, and a person who has shown the world his devotion to world peace throughout his career and his love for this country and his dedication to the service of humanity. Former President Carter when compare to Bush on any level of intellect, morality, or place in history is quite self explanatory. Bush is the son of a former President who rode the coattails of his father’s political might to become the Governor of Texas. Bush used his Governorship and the help of his father and brother in his quest for the Presidency of the United States. In my opinion Bush did not win the office of the President. He with the help of the elite rich, powerful, greedy, and corrupt individuals and corporations who form the despot Republican Party of the United States stole the Presidency by corruption, fraud, and abuse of the U.S. election laws and the down right deceptions at the voting place thoughout the country. This election process was twarted by the United States Supreme Court which was controlled by the Republicans when they in affect appointed Bush to become President. The comparison between Bush and Carter is like trying to compare a grain of sand with the vastness of the cosmos, there is no comparison. Bush who for the better part of his pre-politician existence was a wild egoist individual who often times bragged about his escapades of drinking and chasing after pretty women. There have been reports of him sniffing cocaine and being caught for driving under the influnce of alcohol as well as being AWOL from military duty. Of course all these things have just been reported and as of this date none have been substantiated or proven, but does cast a shadow over his over all worthiest as an individual.
Comparing former President Carter to the current President Bush is almost laughable if not for the position they are or were in. The former President Carter has recieved the Nobel Peace Prize, an a remarkable record in service to his country and to the world, a President of the United States, a nuclear physics, a carpenter, a poet, and many other thing that are to numerous to list in this short article. Former President Carter’s recent comments concerning the Iraq war being a “major tragedy” hit the nail on the head and was jusified in saying so. These despot Republicans in my opinion are aborminable, loyal, blind, and apparently subservient to Bush and his administration. This Bush administration and his Republican coharts has plunged this country in the biggest mess in history. The press and the TV talking heads is trying to cast all the focus onto Prime Minster Blair of Great Britain to minimize the role of the Bush administration part in the Iraq war. George Bush the “Decider” and his Republican coharts are using as one of their defenses, is to be more correct in their actions because the world thinks because Great Britain is backing them when in reality Great Britain has a vested interest in Iraq going back many years and that interest is the same as the United States, oil, oil, oil..... and that is what this war is about plain and simple. Anyway anyone twist the facts it is these elite, rich, and power hungry despots Republicans and their coharts who will go to any extreme to justify their greedy thrist for power and the almighty dollar. President Carter is right that the combination of Bush and Blair giving their support to this tragedy in Iraq has strengthened in efforts, and has made opposition less effective and has prolonged this war and increased the tragdy that has resulted. Bush and his administration’s environmental policies are quite distrubing faith-based initiative funding has made a mockery of the environmental issues and separation of church and state. These U.S. Congresspersons that are currently serving in Congress sure are not doing much to hold this administration’s feet to the fire in my opinion, and it sure is nice and past time for someone to speak out and tell the truth about the going on in Washington D.C. and within this corrupt Bush administration.
This Bush administration has taken this country in my opinion, on a radical departure from all previous administrations policies by the endorsement of the concept of pre-emptive strike against another country, and has usurp the power of Congress to declare war in violation of the U.S. Constitution in my opinion. Former President Carter has honestly and rightly criticized Bush and his administration for having a “zero peace talks” in Israel and have “ abandoned or directly refuted” every negotiated nuclear arms agreement, as well as evironmental efforts by other President.
It seems this Bush administration policies are quite different than President Carter’s administration by currently allocating funds to religious institutions, even those that channel those funds exclusively to their own particular group of believers in a particular religion. It seems to me that Bush as President does not honor the premise that all prevously elected Presidents have honored that of separation of church and state. Back in the 1970’s when Carter was President he proposed a ten year program that would eliminate this country’s need for foreign energy supply and dependence. If this nation and the American people had the foresight back then to implement this ten year program we would not be in this terrible mess we’re in today depending on people that hate us to provide us with energy such as gas and oil. I salute former President Carter far all his has done for America and the world. He is a great man, and much much more, and George Bush the “Decider” can’t hold a candle to him, or for that matter every rise to the greatness of Jimmy Carter. William in Alabama.

Anyway anyone twist the facts it is these elite, rich, and power hungry despots Republicans and their coharts who will go to any extreme to justify their greedy thrist for power and the almighty dollar. President Carter is right that the combination of Bush and Blair giving their support to this tragedy in Iraq has strengthened in efforts, and has made opposition less effective and has prolonged this war and increased the tragdy that has resulted. Bush and his administration’s environmental policies are quite distrubing faith-based initiative funding has made a mockery of the environmental issues and separation of church and state. These U.S. Congresspersons that are currently serving in Congress sure are not doing much to hold this administration’s feet to the fire in my opinion, and it sure is nice and past time for someone to speak out and tell the truth about the going on in Washington D.C. and within this corrupt Bush administration.
This Bush administration has taken this country in my opinion, on a radical departure from all previous administrations policies by the endorsement of the concept of pre-emptive strike against another country, and has usurp the power of Congress to declare war in violation of the U.S. Constitution in my opinion. Former President Carter has honestly and rightly criticized Bush and his administration for having a “zero peace talks” in Israel and have “ abandoned or directly refuted” every negotiated nuclear arms agreement, as well as evironmental efforts by other President.
It seems this Bush administration policies are quite different than President Carter’s administration by currently allocating funds to religious institutions, even those that channel those funds exclusively to their own particular group of believers in a particular religion. It seems to me that Bush as President does not honor the premise that all prevously elected Presidents have honored that of separation of church and state. Back in the 1970’s when Carter was President he proposed a ten year program that would eliminate this country’s need for foreign energy supply and dependence. If this nation and the American people had the foresight back then to implement this ten year program we would not be in this terrible mess we’re in today depending on people that hate us to provide us with energy such as gas and oil. I salute former President Carter far all his has done for America and the world. He is a great man, and much much more, and George Bush the “Decider” can’t hold a candle to him, or for that matter every rise to the greatness of Jimmy Carter. William in Alabama.

The American Way Of Life
The deplorable state of America’s health care and public education systems, corporate outsourcing of jobs, immigration and border patrol, and the state of the nation in general, in particular the all out assaust by this current admintration upon the American way of life that had its beginning in the late 1700’s is turning the American Dream into a horrible nightmare. Maybe this article will in some small way incite the American people to preserve their rights and aspirations of the American way of life.
The elite rich and powerful inside and outside government, business, and special interest groups, are systematically and throughly attempting to destroy the American way of life. The American people are more and more finding themselves subservient to unscrupuious and corrupt despots that are beginning to control their every day lives. The American way of life is a life style that people in the United States have and suppose to be an example of behavioral modality developed from the 1700 up to today. It embraces the idea that anyone, regardless of the circumstances of her or his birth, could increase their standard of living through, hard work and natural ability. This concept is expressed in the firm belief of honest and fair competitive market place, free and open democracy where productive expansion has no bounds. The American way of life to most Americans is not negotible. But the over-comsumption and exploition of the natural resources and other negative aspects of this culture does have a negative impact upon America as well as the rest of the world. The very existence of the American way of life depends entirely on the constitutional government with everyone having equal rights,and liberties to pursue truth, justice and happiness to whatever end.
There is a distrubing and becoming detrimental effect on the American way of life brought on by the outlandish ideology of the conservative right-wing of the Republican Party who have teamed-up with the very elite and rich corporations and individuals who are attempting to erode and set back the gains that has been obtained since the 1700’s in the lives of ordinary Americans. So far there has not been a significent amount of public out cry to help bring these despots under the rule of law where justice can be served. The problems associated with the American way of life cannot be solved without the American people standing up to these despots that are mounting a huge campaign at attempting to shut the door to Americans liberties, justice, and their pursuit of happiness.
It seems today that many Americans are steeped in orthoxy, religious, governmental, military, educational, and personal relationships which always must be followed. It seems sometimes Americans can be sold anything, lied to repeatedly, their services can be stripped away without a wimper or out cry, because they mistakely think its in order to serve them better. Further, the business in America today have suddenly discovered how important privacy has become. How gullible are the American people becoming? It seems tolerance to many Americans of the political class is without limits and any amount of hypocrisy from the “get-elected and stay-elected” can alienate them. The American way of life should be dedicated to the teaching of moral and ethical values to protecting this good earth and all its inhabitants.
This current President and his administration claim they believe that the goal of policy makers is to protect the American way of life. But the sad part of this is the President does not practice what he advocates. Futher, despite the warning that America and for that matter the world is headed like a snowball headed for hell, for an ecological an evironmental desaster many Americans are oblivious to the many warning of this fast apporching calamity. Many Americans feel that the American way of life is an entitlement that operates outside of the laws of nature, when it comes to disproportionate use of the world’s nonrenewable resourses. It should be of the most urgent need for Americans to rediscover themselves and work with the different groups in the American sociality such as, inventors, scientist, educational institutions. etc. for the good of the American way of life. Americans will have to come with a better way to cope with the declining era of industrial civilization based on a unrenewable source of energy. This means that to sustain and for prosperity sake turn to the use of renewable resourses. It is in the vital interest to diversify America’s energy supply through technology and changing the way America generates it’s electric power, and needs to cut it’s reliance on imported energy resourses, such as gas and oil.
Imperialism has penetrated the fabic of America’s culture and infected many Americans imagination, more deeply than one would expect. The challenge to the American way of life is complicated and riddled with delusional propaganda coming mostly from the right-wing of the Republican Party and their coharts that touts “democracy”, but in reality are nothing but a want-a-be plutocracy and oligarchy, where few rich and transborder corporations and individuals own the formal, Constitutionally-based political system. This reality presents real challenges to the American people and their way of life. All this can be recitified by the grassroot organizing process that leads to a true democrary, despite of the set-in-place and criminality of the current national political system. The people of America should be outraged at the government and this current administration of George Bush for conducting policies and practices that almost certainly will produce a catastrophe effect upon the American Way of Life.

The Elite Rich And Powerful
Folks, there is a cancer growing in America’s society and it is money and power. This is very noticeable if one just stops, looks, and listens. The elite, rich, and powerful individuals, corporations, and a collaboration of industry and other organizations and institutions have bought the United States Government, and are attempting to install an oligarchy form of government in which a few persons hold the ruling power.
The cost of gasoline keeps climbing higher as vaction time approches. Most Americans expect that gas prices will be at or above $4 dollars by years end. It will cost some Americans who are at the lower end of the wage scale (mimium wage) a day and a half to fill up their tanks. Most of these people make only $5.15 per hour and simplely cannot afford gas at these prices. Meanwhile, Exxon Mobil reported this year the largest annual profit of any U.S. company ever, $39.5 billion. That folks is #75,000 dollars a minute in profits. The Gas and Oil industries donated to the Bush Presidential campaign in 2004 two and one half million dollars, and this was from just the Oil and Gas industry spending on and to one person.
The Pharmaceutical Industry has given millions to the Republican President and members of Congress in return for a secured industry-friendly changes to landmark drug safety Bill, according to public records and interviews. The Bill grants the Food and Drug Administration broad new athority to moniter the safety of drugs after they are approved. The U.S. Senate allow the drug Vioxx to stay on the market for years after signs that it could cause heart attack. “It is not that money buys votes”, said Senator Bernie Sanders I-VT., the lone vote against the bill “ but you have a cultture in which big money has significant influnce. Big money gains you access, access gives you the time to influnce people”. The pharmaceutical companies spent $ 855 million dollars more money on lobbying than any other single industry from the year 1998 to 2006 according to the non-partisan Center for Public Integrity.
In the Defense Industry alone the Republican party and it’s candidates recieved $9,996,874 dollars or 62% of the donations handed out by the different organations in the Defense Industry during the 2005-2006 year election cycle and was released by the Federal Election Commission on Monday, February 19, 2007, according to the Center for Responsive Politics. Corporate donors from the Defense Industry have seen a high return on their campaign contributions and have seen exponential growth. These have not been proportional returns, as the top contribution have not in all instances been the companies to be awarded the most contracts. The Defense Industry in general has enjoyed unprecedented growth during the Bush administration, and much appears to be linked to former Republicans and Defense officials involved in both the Pentagon and private companies.
The Republicans are doing their best to get a lock on political power. After the reorganization of political thought that culminated with the “contract on America” in the mid 90’s the Republicans captured a majority in both houses of Congress. The way they did it was hitching the imcumbency to the wealth of industries and conservative churches via K street, and by using other despotic and anti-democrary tactic, These tactic let lobbying budgets blind legislators to the real needs in our country and eventually made some of them blind even to the difference between a bribe and a legal favor, with the false assumption that “anything goes” as long as money goes into the campaign fund. The Republicans out spent their opponents in most of all the recent elections. They are back at this facade again, lining up their ducks in a row and counting all the feathers. Are Americans going to fall far this luncy once more. If they do it may be a long long time before they will ever vote again. William in Alabama

Corruption In Government
It looks now that the Bush administration has once again stooped to a new low. A government investigation has found a high ranking Bush administration official broke the law by encouraging subordinates to use their power and position to support Republican candidates for office. The official Lunita Doan who was found by the Office of Special Counsel (OSC) to have violated the Hatch Act, which bar certain partisan political activity by government officials and employees. It is thought the head of the General Services Administration (GSA) Lurita Doan violated the law by
“ following a 2006 PowerPoint presentation “ by the White House political office on Republicans in tight congressional races. The office of the General Services Administration contracts for services, supplies and real estate on behalf of the entire Federal government. Lunita Doan is currently facing a separate investigation by the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee into charges she improperly intervened in contracting issues.
Some of the Democrats in Congress are pushing a new Bill that would bar members of Congress from using their inside knowledge of Congressional action to profit from investments. This Bill would ban lawmakers from using non public information to buy and sell stocks. In 2005 the Securities and Exchange Commission probed into wheater someone in former Senate majority leader Bill Frist’s office, shared inside information with Wall Street investors. Senator Frist also faced question from the Justice Department and the Securties and Exchange Commission (SEC) without charging Frist.
Former Tennessee Senator and a potential Republican Presidential candidate Fred Thompson has closed down a political action committee that paid out more money to his son than it did in political donations. Federal Election Commission record have reportedly been analyzed show Thompson’s Committee paid $178,000 dollars to his son’s political consulting firm, Daniel Thompson Associates, since 2003. In contrast, the Committee made only $66,700 in contributions to other campaign and political Committees in the four years since Thompson retired from the senate. This should raise everyone eyebrows wheather this is self-dealing. To top all this off this man is thinking about running for President of the United States. I don’t think a person of this caliber deserve to be the next President of these United States.
Then, there’s Monica Goodling, a right-wing true believer blowing the whistle on the U.S. Attorney scandel. Ms. Goodling admitted to politicizing the Justice Department in ways that certainly seem illegal. She made it clear that Attorney General Alberto Gonzales lied at a critical point in the Congressional investigation. This seem to give all the reason to Congress to compel Karl Rowe advisor to Bush and Harriet Miers, the former White House counsel, to testify about what they know. She admitted that she investigated the parties affilations, and even campaign contributions, of applicants for prosecutors, and other nonpolitical jobs. Her admission that partisan politics was used to hire people only makes it more likely that was also used to fire people. She went on to say she lied about the firing of the U.S. Attorneys.
Just recently President Bush nominated Michael Baroody, executive Vice-President of the National Association of Manufactoring (NAM) to head the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC)--- the very organization that NAM has consistly sought to undermine. Baroody has now withdrawn his nomination. This was brought about by the $150,000 dollars payment that Baroody would have recieved from the Manufactures’ lobbying group when he left. Baroody’s organization has recently apposed a CPSC proposal to improve safety standards for baby walkers, among other anti-consumer measures. By the way, Michael Baroody’s father William J. Baroody was the founder of Enterprise Institute, and his brother Joe Baroody was linked to watergate back in the Nixion era.
Paul Wolfowitz, one of the Republicans of the Bush administration, and the architects of the Iraq war, stepped down just recently from the head of the World Bank because its ethics panel found that he had violated Bank rules by engineering a promotion and large raise for his girl friend, despite the White House support, the scandal proved too serious to simply brush off.
Republican Representative John Doolittle of California is stepping down from his seat on the House Appropriations Committee under pressure of and investigation by the FBI. But the man to replace him is also the subject of an FBI investigation.
Further, Republican Presidential candidate Rudy Giuliani’s business interest continue to cause problems for his Presidential campaign, according to the Wall Street Jornal, two of Rudy’s companies failed to disclose a potental conflict of interest in a Federal bankruptey proceeding.
All these conflicts and potentially violations of laws such as, when Scooter Libby said that he didn’t know Plame real name or covert status, shows just how these Republicans have become over the years. Republican Senator Mel Martinez of Florida who is the current Chair of the Republican National Committee new development reveals he violated Federal Election Laws in his 2004 Senate campaign. He could potentially be fined hundreds of thousands of dollars.
The Republican National Committee (RNC) has recently issued a press realease indicating that they would not comply with requests made by the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform for material relating to the possiblity of illegal use of RNC e-mails by White House staff members, RNC Chairman Mike Duncan argued that turning over the e-mails meant revealing the RNC’s playbook. Gee...wit i curs.....?
Just the other day in a hearing before the Senate Armed Services Committee, Senator Byron Dorgan reported on abuses by Haliburton that have cost the taxpayers $1.4 billion dollars and has put U.S. soldiers at futher risk.
There needs and has to be more accountability, honesty, and openness at all level of government. To do this will mean create and enforce rules that demand the highest ethics from all American citizens and public servants, sever unethical ties between lawmakers and lobbyist, and establish clear standards that prevent the trading of official business for gifts or personal political or monetary gain.

It a sad day in Alabama when the President of the United States and his Republican coharts can send partisan Federal Prosecuters in to the State of Alabama to tear down a former Governor of Alabama and a Minster and Business man and give them a kangaroo trial with prejudice Judge in with these hinchmen prosecuters to do a citizen this way is fascist and down right immoral. The Democratic Party should bring up every Republican in Congress and the President of the United States into the bar of justice and come down on all of them like no other time in history. I am strongly requesting of the Democracts that have the power to do something to act now and impeach Bush and bring all his coharts including Dick Cheney and Carl Rowe and all of these other Republicans who have run rough shod over the American people for way to long. Democrats it is time for you to do what you were elected to do Impeach Bush and bring all his coharts to the bar of justice. I for one think that it is past time for action. These crooks have had their day in the sun it is now time to get on the side of right and free these two men Former Governor of Alabama and Minster and Business man Richard Scurshy who were railroaded by the President of the United States and his coharts here in Alabama and in the judical branch of the State of Alabama and the guns for hire Federal Prosecuters send to Alabama to frame these two good men. I am asking all Democrats to join together and put a stop to this fascist madness. Impeach Bush and for the U.S Congress to start prosecuring all the criminal Republicans till they all get their just reward of prison and huge fines as the law allows. Democrats it time to act if we are ever to act and rid this demon from the bowels of our government. This e-mail is going to all Democrats that I know. If this Party lets this President to get away with these types of acts then Democrats you have failed America. Tomorrow morning the Democrats should come out swinging with all the power it has against these criminals and evil-doers. This type of judical nonsense should not stand because if they can do this to these two great men god help us all. The Democrats all of you should rattle the halls of Congress and the White House till these unjustices are corrected if not America as we know it will no longer exist. DEMOCRATS STAND UP AND FIGHT FOR A CHANGE ARE WE WILL LOSE OUR COUNTRY. William in Alabama.

The Great Foolish Decider
In my opinion, has the “ Decider” the leader of the free world lost touch with reality? If one stops and compares Osama bin Laden who is still plotting acts of terrorism against the United States and others, and he is convinced his God wants him to kill all infidels. It is well known that Bush says he believes in God and that God has chosen him to bring democracy and freedom to the world. But Bush has blind eyes, weak minded and no heart when it comes to the disastrous setbacks and death he has caused to be heaped upon the world. This is truly terrifying and shows just how inept Bush really is. Both Osama bin Laden and Bush are very wrong when it comes to religion because nearly all the different religions in the world their God does not condone hurting or killing innocent people no matter what their reasons are, and both of these men do not adhere to their own beliefs and religious doctrines.
It is very unnerving for Bush who thinks he is the leader of the “free world” and most Americans ( except the elite rich and corrupt individuals, corporations, organizations, institutions, and others such as the Republican Party) do not have the same persistant optimism as Bush has and many wonder is this person lost touch with reality? It is time for this illegal elected or should I say appointed President Bush to recognize that the Iraq war is not about saving political face, and he continues to ignore the majority of Congress and the will of the American people. What it is all about is people being maim and killed for and unjust cause. Bush should seek peace with the same vigor and determination as he does war. After nearly six months into the Republican and Bush surge 600 brave Americans have been killed and many maimed for life, and we have spent $60 dollars in Iraq. This war will continue to cost the American taxpayers billions upon billions of dollars, and heaven knows how many lives will maimed or killed. The disastrous failure of this Bush-Republican unjust war and the luncy policy has only given Al Queda time to reorganize and rebuild around the globe.
Our military have done their job, but our brave troops cannot solve Iraqi 2000 year old political and religious problems. It is way past time for them to be redeployed against the forces of Al Queda all around the world with the United Nation at our side. America should let the Iraqi fight their own dirty little war. Folks, your flag decals want get you into heaven any more and God knows its already crowded from Bush and the Republicans dirty bloody war. Peace not war should be the aspiration, hope, and goal for all decent, honorable, and friendly people.
The congressional resolution approved in October 2002 that gave Bush authority to use force in Iraq needs to be changed because it no longer covers what U.S. forces are doing or will do in the future. Bush was given authority to protect the United States from Saddam Hussein and enforce United Nation’s resolutions involving Iraq’s weapons of mass destruction. This does not embrace what the mission are today, or the missions that are very likely to take place with our forces in the future. The Senators Byrd-Clinton proposal would repeal the 2002 year authorization and would require Congress to pass a new authorization to keep or not to keep troops in Iraq.
Almost six years ago Bush said he would capture Osama bin Laden “ dead or alive”, but Osama is still at large and the Al Queda organization have benefited greatly from the “ Decider’s” decision to invade Iraq. The Iraq problem is a problem for the entire world and the United Nation has promised to help the Iraqi government and it’s people overcome their difficulty. Bush instead decided to keep this war going and initiated a surge of U.S forces into Iraq. This terrible war should end and the best way to do that is turn the whole Iraq problem to the United Nation so they can stabilize Iraq. The United Nation’s possesses and ability for undertaking complex internal and regional mediation efforts can and would keep Al Queda out of Iraq. This would allow the U.S. to be more aggressive and could put a greater effort into pursuing the war on terrorism around the world. While reasonable people can differ on whether the U.S. should have intervened in Iraq, it is clear today that the future of Iraq will have a profound and long lasting effect on the region and on peace and stability in the world. There should as soon as practical and prudent for and expanded United Nation role in Iraq to bring about some modernation in the region.
Bush is currently strongly opposes pay raises for our troops in Iraq and else where. He said they were “unnecessary” even though many military families depend on food stamps to survive. Bush even went on falsely claiming that Congress did not want to increase soldiers pay. This coming from an egoistical, individual who himself dodge going to war in Vietnam and as a United States Military officer went awol from service and used his daddy’s influnce to get out of going to war, and was here in the U.S. boozing it up and having himself a great time bar hopping, drinking while driving in my opinion. He even stole the Presidency with the help from his Republican coharts and others though illegal means when the Republican majority in the U.S. Supreme Court appointed him to the be the President. This “ Decider” in my opinion needs to be placed on a snake ranch to oversee and decide their fate, not the good people of these United States fate. Congress should either devoid the election or impeach this
elite rich and powerful and I believe corrupt individual. William in Alabama.
Is the United States Congress going to over-ride Bush’s veto of the Children’s Health care Bill? Health care for American is being attacked, particularly health care for millions of uninsured children. President Bush is threatening to veto a bill that would insure millions of American children because he says it’s “an incremental step toward the goal of government-run health care for every American”. This it seems is just another attempt by Bush at fulfilling his commitment and servitude to the elite rich and corrupt individuals and corporations among others who are responsible for his appointment to the Presidency by a Republican controlled Supreme Court. The Children’s Health Care Bill has been passed by Congress and has immense support among the American people.
The Republicans in Congress will be under immense pressure from Bush and the elite rich and corrupt individuals, corporations and others to not support an over-ride of Bush’s veto. Bush seems not to care about millions of children who are uninsured and anyone can plainly predict that he will be applying all the pressure at his disposal and using every political and non-political avenue to sway these subservient Republicans not to vote to over-ride his veto.
If the Bill fails millions of children will continue to be uninsured because their families can’t afford the rising health insurance cost. Further, if this Bill fails health care for all American will come to a halt. In the past nearly all the Republicans in Congress have stood by Bush even if it was bad for the country or whether it was right or wrong. The American people
one would hope will take notice of these Republicans vote not to over-ride Bush’s veto and come next year election hopefully will do something about it.
The United States has the finest and most advanced health care system in the world but many millions of Americans do not have access to it and cannot afford the high cost of insurance. All Americans should let Congress know that going along with Bush’s veto this time will abruptly end the fight for all American to have available to them affordable and proper health care. The American people know that rising health care costs, not health coverage is the chief health care concern. The American people also wants the government to play a leading role in providing health care for all. The American people overwhelmingly agree that access to health care should be a right and the public at large say it is willing to pay more in taxes to provide every American with health care coverage. In conclusion, if Bush’s veto is sustained it will be a very sad day again in America. William in Alabama

The American people know that rising health care costs, not health coverage is the chief health care concern. The American people also wants the government to play a leading role in providing health care for all. The American people overwhelmingly agree that access to health care should be a right and the public at large say it is willing to pay more in taxes to provide every American with health care coverage. In conclusion, if Bush’s veto is sustained it will be a very sad day again in America. William in Alabama
