    Viktor Yushchenko Poisoned?

    I am most impressed with the fact that he is still pushing forward, despite his enemies' attempt to kill him (twice).

    Another US Soldier Charged

    I have a problem with forcing people to pay for a license just to buy a T.V. What if I just wanted to play video games, or what if I really don't want the news at all?

    What does BC stand for?

    I think it would be impossible to change our date system, especially considering that it's been around for thousands of years, covering that much history. War of 1812, the Declaration in July 4, 1776 (oh wait, we can't teach that in schools, so no big deal). Besides, is there a better person...

    The "Theory" of Evolution vs. "Creationism"

    I must agree with the point of view that evolution and creationism are not mutually exclusive. Consider this: The bible says that the sun was not created until the fourth day. Yet, it says that the light was created on the first day. We define a day as a 24-hour period of time (an invention...

    Another US Soldier Charged

    How much would you be willing to pay for a news network? BTW, if that is true about FOXNews, then couldn't the same thing be said about CNN, whose owner Ted Turner, despises President Bush?

    The war against terror is the key..

    Sir, I do understand that other people have different takes on how the world is; I also am smart enough to know that I can never fully understand any of those other viewpoints. The best I can do is allow them co-exist until a day comes when we can understand each other fully; however, there ARE...

    GOP Discusses National Sales Tax

    The tax system must be set up in such a way that it is beneficial to try to be rich; if we punish the rich too much, no one will think it's worth trying to become rich. It's then when our society breaks down, because no one works hard.

    Let us discuss Alternative Education

    We could always just not teach the bottom third of students. ( :eek: Just kidding)

    Fallujah Napalmed: US Uses Banned Chemical Weapon in Iraq

    I have an optimistic viewpoint on what's happening right now. I think there will one of two outcomes that the history books will talk about: Lose - The U.S. cannot beat back the insurgency, casualties rise daily, and the American people favor retreat by a 60% to 40% ratio. The Bush...

    Are you for a state amendment or Constitutional Amendment?

    I think the ultimate question here is the source of homosexuality. Some people believe that it is a chosen lifestyle, others believe it's genetic. If it's a chosen lifestyle, then these people don't deserve any special treatment for it. However, if homosexuality is genetic or inborn, then...

    Fallujah Napalmed: US Uses Banned Chemical Weapon in Iraq

    We can't lose the war no matter what. If we lose, the insurgents take over Iraq, and then the citizens of Iraq would be in a REAL problem. Besides, in Vietnam we were fighting another nation; in Iraq, we're fighting an ideology. Most civilized human beings believe that terrorists are the bad...

    More Troops to Baghdad

    Ever watch Dave Chapelle stand-up? "If I were the president I would have a mexican vice president. 'You can assinate me if you want, but you're just going to open up the border, right VP Santiago?' 'Si...siiiiii'

    More Troops to Baghdad

    Regardless of whether or not you like him, Bush's assination would only result in a HUGE morale boost for the enemy. HUGE HUGE HUGE. The government knows this, and the same effect would be had if the elections failed to happen.

    Reefer Madness?

    My point is this: how many people have died from alcohol, be it poisoning, DWI, or whatever. There will always be those who are not smart enough to control themselves; that doesn't mean we have to make laws around them.

    Is Declaration of Independence unconstitutional?

    Ultimately, I believe that every religion that fosters goodwill toward mankind is of God. Jesus, Budha, everybody is all in on it together. There will always be people who pretend to be moral using church when they are not, and those who are moral who have been offended by the church. What is...
