  • why are republicans more concerned about their idealogy rather than the health of the country?

    rush limbaugh said he hopes obama fails!! that's ok i guess but what about the country? house republicans urge the stoppage of the stimulus plan.."to much wasteful spending" some of this may be true but as far as i can remember when Bush took office we had a surplus now we are in the trillions with debt.. there was no problem handing billions to the banks and trillions in a failed war don't forget about the stimulis checks bush handed out twice!! or the bail out of all the airlines, but gm you cant have any money..i know why though, those jobs can be shipped overseas.. didn't that spending for the last 8 years seem wasteful? it seems that republicans don't care about the country as a whole but more about their ideology. look what that got us.. the worst economic crisis since the great depression. millions of people out of work and all they want to see is obama fail.. not the country back to work and spending money.. nope cant have that!

  • $700 billion bail out, why?

    ok, please explain this to me. im not picking side just looking for an answer. if republicans have a general attitude of why should my tax dollars go to helping someone who wont help themselves then why is our tax dollars going to help the extremely rich?

    in other words with the view point of let the market decide, i think it (the market) decided that it didn't like the way these companies were operating. so u get to close your doors for business. true thousands of people will be out of wrk. i understand that part, but $700 billion?

    if the u.s. were to forgive all the bad loans that all the idiots bought homes with it would only be $200 billion. so why do my $$$ go to bailing out the ones who KNOW how to help themselves? besides i believe Herbert hoover tried to bail the banks out in 1931, that didn't work out to well they were bankrupt within a year. then in 1999 japan tried the same and once again it didn't work. so in 2008 g.w. bush will try again and i dont think it will work this time either. so whats the point? delay the inevitable? please add to this and explain what im not getting here. thank you to all who add their 2 cents

  • bush the uniter not divider?

    i was thinking about this today and thought most polititions speak in a double standard. maybe he really is telling the truth.

    the right moved so far right that the left had to move to the center in order to be noticed by americans. dems take control of the house and senate and roll over like a beat dog giving bush all he wants. now candidatates cant even promise to get troops out by 2013!!! repubs put some jokes up for the race for pres, getting dems to win the pres. and own the war. maybe the dems will stay center of the spectrum and repubs will move to the left uniting the two parties in the center of the political spectrum.

    when he says im a uniter he means of the two parties not the american people. maybe he know that we are so selfish that we think he is talking about us. what do you think?? just thinking about whats going on and thought of this is all,

  • global warming?

    i had an idea today. the world is slowly looking for a new energy source. i dont know how this will work or if it ever will, but here goes.

    the earth will never stop rotating on its axis. thats alot of energy that we should try to gather. i have no ideas other than it is truly an unlimited supply. maybe use some sort of motion detecting units that generate power from this rotation.

    any ideas??? what do you think??? the craziest ideas are alway hard to achive but have huge impacts on the world...

  • your president does not care about you!!!!?

    this saturday the bush admin. plans to open the NAFTA super highway. mexican truckers will be everywhere!! unregulated!!

    currently outside truckers are allowed within 50 miles of our border for three days. under this new highway they will be allowed unlimited acess to our country for 3 months. no insurance, destroying our infastructure, and illigal. ok. then why does everyone make a big deal about immagration? bush wants them here to do work that you will do. thousands of jobs will be lost maybe yours. this highway is the ultimate slap in all americans faces. bush has led you to believe that immagration policies are important, then goes to court to get millions of illigals here. this highway will lead to the fall of the american dream. bush does not care about american families and thier jobs.
