All post must now be approved until AD decides to change it back. This board is for political discussion and debate. IT IS NOT A BOARD TO CARRY OUT FEUDS This has been going on for a couple of days with multiple people, If you cannot discuss or debate a topic without getting personal, I'd suggest you take it off your favorite list and not visit here Also, not every statement that people make are personal jabs, if you're that over sensitive to remarks (from other cultures) maybe this isn't the board for you. Remember that people from all over the world visit here and what is rude in one place may not be in another or vice a versa and if we went pc to everybody's sensitivities, all post would probably have to be deleted
Thema: Re:It's hard to do it because you have got to look people in the eye and tell them they're irresponsible and lazy. And who's going to want to do that? Because that's what poverty is, ladies and gentlemen."
The Usurper: It sure doesn't mean 900 billion in pork, Is says promote (make policy that is non intrusive, nor over taxing) not provide or in other words give
Thema: Re:It's hard to do it because you have got to look people in the eye and tell them they're irresponsible and lazy. And who's going to want to do that? Because that's what poverty is, ladies and gentlemen."
The Usurper: The Constitution of the United States of America
We the people of the United States, in order to form a more perfect union, establish justice, insure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare, and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.

The Usurper: And much of the blame for the poor is liberalism, putting them on welfare in the first place. You see the founding fathers thought long and hard before writing"..Provide for the common defense and Promote the general welfare". but liberal government wants to downsize the military while expanding welfare. just the opposite of what this country stands for
The Usurper: It sounds like a statement taken completely out of context, just as Obama took a quote of him explaining the Mexican governments policy on immigration and made an out of context ad making is sound like that was him saying it about mexicans. I'm sure that if you were to print (or even better actually listen) to the whole paragraph, you would find that he's proving that republicans have more compassion for the poor than the dems
Artful Dodger: the court threw out the Pennsylvania case that was before the election siting that the prosecutor had no standing to sue, last I eard, Judge Roberts allowed California suits to go on as they were brought by legislators and had standing, but the last I heard anything was a couple of days before the inogeration
Mousetrap: with the intense heat melting the beams, the weight of the floors above the crash made the top floors fall on it then it was like a pancake theory the rest of the way down, imagine a brick dropping down on a three story card house, they are going to go straight down
Bernice: It was over budget, one of the cuts was in the asbestosis retardant that was around the main beams, they stopped using it somewhere around the 65th floor, not exactly sure which one
Artful Dodger: there have been many such law suits, especially in Pennsylvania and California most of them before the election were thrown out, I know some after the election have been allowed to go forward but haven't heard much of anything lately
Artful Dodger: You forgot that the levy's in N.O. were demolition ed by navy seals, a second shooter on the grassy knoll, Area 51, miniature cameras built into everyone's t.v.'s, and of coarse, the roadrunner paid off Acme
It appears that Obama's approval rating has slipped from somewhere between Messiah and Ghandi down to Mount Rushmore, at this rate he will be considered human by next week and only 6'3'' tall the following week
Artful Dodger: I missed the songs, I was talking in general, as a musician, singing where they slide all over the scale bugs me I think it takes more talent to hold the note
Artful Dodger: I don't, I think songs are sung that way because even tho they have a great voice, they are not capable of holding a note for any amount of time
Artful Dodger: nah, I want to see pelosi and that ceo from meril lynch explain to congress their expenditures, I would love to see her face the American people and explain the reason for choosing the private use of a jumbo jet weekly to cross the country
Artful Dodger: I say send them to Murtha's state, he wanted them, the people can't say anything since they voted for them, so they should be happy to have those terrorist in their back yard
maybe we should just consider them pow's then we wouldn't have to worry about trying them and then we would return them to their home country when the war is over( I mean when they are dead since the war on terror will go on forever)
Thema: Re: Even Though BBW won't respond, the idea that Bush lied is a radical left propaganda ploy
Pedro Martínez: I tell you what, If I ever decide to attack your country in a terroristic way and get caught, I won't complain to anyone how your country addresses my future, fair enough?
Thema: Re: Even Though BBW won't respond, the idea that Bush lied is a radical left propaganda ploy
Pedro Martínez: They are not afforded constitutional rights as they do not fall under U.S. jurisdiction. but they are military combatants fighting against military targets thus they fall under military jurisdiction
Thema: Re: Even Though BBW won't respond, the idea that Bush lied is a radical left propaganda ploy
Pedro Martínez: The only reason for this presidential declaration is to include these prisoners along with regular military prisoners since they don't wear uniforms or fight with conventional means. There is a president for this action, during WW2 germans infiltrated the united states and were captured and were detained the same way
Thema: Re: Even Though BBW won't respond, the idea that Bush lied is a radical left propaganda ploy
Pedro Martínez: #1 should say in America, American citizens are granted a fir trial before they are convicted of a crime #2 should be They don't agree that they all are deserving of a trial in an American court
Czuch: First of all, he didn't upstage me, I had to go and give my support to China at Wallyworld.(there now it is on topic) second, this is the third most read board right now third, all public boards are monitored as close as possible to stop mainly flaming from escalating and crossing over to other boards (remember what it was like before globs?)
the video distorts the mood,by adding things that were not at the roast but the jokes were, personally I have no problem with them and I'll bet most army personal would'nt have a problem with the actual jokes
Thema: Re: if you said he was a bad choice,I wouldn't really care WHY you thought he was,point is,its YOUR right to believe he is a bad choice.
anastasia: It would have against the law for Bush to take control before the Gov of La asked for it. He asked for the Gov to ask, and she refused. Miss and Ala ask for it before it hit and the Government was ready, try again.
This conversation reminds me of a 96 year old client I had 8 years ago, she said "I don't trust Bush, he looks funny." Of coarse when she was saying this I was staring at her mouth that had 4 teeth, two on the top of one side and two on the bottom on the other side, sort of like a crooked pumpkin.
