    Those kind of nut cases are the vocal minority of Australians....Most Australians don't care, in fact not giving a crap is our national past time.

    Let's stop building schools, build more prisons, and put the kid straight in there. Cut out the middle man. That will solve all sorts of problems, like child care, labor costs, etc. The parents will appreciate it. They won't have to let them use the car anymore. Unfortunately they won't have anybody to send into the city to get their drugs for them, but they can always do like I do and just buy from the cops.

    She has no convictions...

    If it wasn't for the Monica distraction, she probably would have a conviction or two and might be serving time along with Slick.

    God, remember when she was cool, and had convictions? National health care, remember that? Washington ruined that woman.

    Oh man! What would ever make you think she was "cool"?? That's a helluva bear trap you got yourself into there. She was always a crook. What in the world do you think got her into the white house the first time? Make no mistake, she was Bill's handler, and she was running the show. I'm afraid you would have to be a little high to believe that her plan has anything to do with caring for your health. The only plan was to skim a little for a nice nest egg for their retirement. She has her "Halliburtons" too, but her "Monica" diversion made sure we never heard about it.

    Well, as far as I know, Richardson is still a "he". Did you think I was talking about somebody else? And If you must know, I consider a woman* to be much more qualified for the job. Men are only good for gathering food and a steady supply of sperm. They have already proven their incompetence in most everything else.

    *most women. There is one that shouldn't be allowed on the grounds even.

    Both of you curtain climbers are still wettin' the bed :-) Eisenhower was the last of a breed, and the last to show any respect for the office. Kennedy didn't have time to screw up, but the big slide started on November 22, 1963, almost recovered when we got rid of Nixon, then accelerated downward again in 1980, and now is almost a cliff. The event horizon is dangerously near. "Whoop, whoop, Pull up! Pull up!"

    He voted yes on the renewal. That's every bit as fatal as the original. Now I don't know what kind of deals he's been making, but he acquired way too much money way too fast. I smell something fishy, and he's better come clean no matter questions are asked. I will consider any resistance to questioning as a sign of guilt seeing as that he is running for high office. We must hold his(and ALL other candidates') feet to the fire. And now that Monica is out of the way, they should reopen those real estate deals of the Clintons. I actually think that she is worse than Bush, and if she gets in, she will prove it to you. I don't want another guy like Bush who thinks he doesn't have to answer to the public. We must take back the power that is ours alone, without fail, or things will only get worse.

    Well, that goes without saying...but now that you mention it, it is a given. But mass media is really pushing to keep them out in front, and you can be sure they expect big dividends on their "investment".

    That's true, you're absolutely right. I agree with your take on the situation that you posted a long time ago. Paraphrasing *Don't try to appeal to their better half. They might not have one. It is much more effective to appeal to their self interests.* That encompasses a whole lot of ground. And it applies to the thing that influences us more than anything else, our animal instincts. Learn to work that, and you got it made. Beyond that, everything I say is redundant.

    Amongst those already in congress, only those who voted against the patriot act and the war is where to start. When it comes to freedom there can no longer be any compromise. This has been going on for more than 5,000 years. It's time to reformat. It's perfectly ok for any individual to give up their own personal freedoms. It is NOT ok for them to vote away yours or mine. My solution involves a delusional belief in free will, which now I'm not so certain we really have. In other words, I don't know.

    Hardly relevant. I don't vote for anyone based on race, or color, or heritage. Only his record counts. Ask him what he'll do about the war, the patriot act, and prohibition, and maybe IP law.

    Obama voted to reauthorize the Patriot Act. That is unforgivable, and he deserves nothing but contempt for it. To consider him as worthy is a mistake. If you want freedom, then vote for somebody who wants to protect it, unconditionally.

    Let this be a lesson. These people are no better than the ones they want to replace. I know I'm talking to the hand, But it has to be said. You have a choice. Make it a good one.

    Yes, well, I wouldn't count on that. In case you haven't noticed, war is a very profitable business. And the US is in the war business. It's not about victory. They have stated outright that they are there to protect their interests. And those interests are purely economic.
