This is a political forum that is non-biased/non-partisan and treats every person's position on topics equally. This debate forum is not aligned to any political party. In today's politics, many ideas are split between and even within all the political parties. Often we find ourselves agreeing on one platform but some topics break our mold. We are here to discuss them in a civil political debate. If this is your first visit to our political forums, be sure to check out the RULES.

abortion where the mother is at stake
Even some of the most over Republicans agree that abortion should be legal when the mother's life is at stake. I agree with this to a point, considering she can either choose to give birth and die or abort and live. However, imagine if the baby is in a no-win situation, where if the mother... -

What should we do with Terrorists?
You're just proving my point for me. They aren't going to stop until they're all dead, every last one of them. When we kill them, that's just a sign of honor. It's like an American soldier dieing on the battlefield; he's dieing for his country, only the terrorists are dieing for their God... -

What should we do with Terrorists?
Okay, can we get back on topic? What should we do with the Terrorists? I say we torture them like the Germans did the Jews in the Holocaust. -

free medical care
A lot of people say that medical care can never be free to the patient because it would cost taxpayers too much money. I disagree. Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't education free? Yes, teachers and school employees do not make much money, but they teach for reasons other than the money... -

What should we do with Terrorists?
You just don't get it, do you? When did I ever say the Bible is credible to me? I don't think I ever did. I said that the Bible was credible to most. I don't even read the Bible because I think it is a distorted vision of God. It's sad that we're just going to kill him with lethal injection... -

What should we do with Terrorists?
I never said we should. The Bible is just very credible to some, so I used it, and how am I gettings "technical?" -

What should we do with Terrorists?
Quick question: Was 9/11 "as the law allowed?" Did those Terrorists that hijacked those airplanes do something that was constitutional? Why should we do any different? The phrase "an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth" is actually used in the Bible, when God was giving the Jews laws to... -

What should we do with Terrorists?
They just caught that Iraqi dude whose name I can't spell. Does that mean nothing to you? -

What should we do with Terrorists?
A lot of people have their own ideas as to how to punish terrorists when they're caught. I have one that would get the message accross to terrorists more effectively that any other. Let's crusify them! We won't use a cross, since that would offend Christians, but we'll use two pillars and... -

America's role in the world economy.
Dude, you're asking someone who is more educated and more aware than the average American. Of course I know of the working conditions and wages in other countries. Why do you think so many Mexicans are crossing the border to enthusiasticallywork in jobs that many people would sleep with a mule... -

America's role in the world economy.
The United States has one of the highest standards of living in the world. We are among the top ten, maybe even top five, richest nations on the planet. Because of the cost of labor, a lot of our products are expensive to manufacture, causing the prices to go up. This hurts our role in the... -

juvenile delinquincy
I'm deeply sorry. I didn't expect you to be incapable of infering. Let's see if I can put this in a way that even you can understand. You talk about how your grandmother saying proverbs that are still with you today. That is how you were brought up, and it is very difficult to change your... -

juvenile delinquincy
I know you've read The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn since everyone has, so I'm not going to ask you that stupid question. I am going to ask you, however, if you understand its moral. Do you? Huck was faced with many challenges by authority, often concerning the slave refugee Jim. At one... -

juvenile delinquincy
If you are a parent, chances are you've been faced with finding ciggarettes or other drugs in his or her bags. It's been proven that grounding them doesn't work, and teaching them the hazards of such stuff has also proven ineffective. But no one enjoys being made fun of for being in therapy... -

single party dominance leads to tyranny.
You're forgetting one thing. The President cannot do jack without the consent of at least a third of Congress. The President can, in theory, start taking action without asking for legislation to be passed, but if 2/3 of Congress don't like it, they can pass legislation and, once it's vetoed...
