Why is Obama changing our Nuclear policy now?
Hasn't our current policy worked for the past 50+ years? We have yet to be attacked by nuclear weapons. Our allies have yet to be attacked by nuclear weapons.
Why deliberately make the US weaker by changing policy when the past policy has done exactly what it set out to do?
12 AnswersPolitics1 decade agoWill it be Obama's, Pelosi's and the Democrat's fault if I die of an illness before 2012?
The taxes start now, but the coverage doesn't start for three years. If I die without coverage can my family sue them? They have clearly taken responsibility for my coverage and now they will have written into law the three year wait.
7 AnswersPolitics1 decade agoWhat will happen when the Government starts paying for Higher education like the Democrats want?
Will we all get to go to the University of Hawaii for free or will the government force us to stay at home and attend or own crappy state Universities? Much like they force us to attend our local primary, middle and high schools?

And we were worried about the Bush administration spying on people?
12 AnswersPolitics1 decade agoDoes Government Health Care = Loss of Freedom?
I find it very interesting that there is a segment of our population that thinks it is okay to allow a government to provide health care for them knowing full well that the Government has to by force if need be, take the money from some one else to pay for it.
The Government while it can print all the money it wants, it's only source of income is to pass laws that forces "WE the PEOPLE" to pay TAXES. If we don't pay the TAXES, the Government will use MEN WITH GUNS to FORCE "We the PEOPLE" to pay the TAXES. Your Health Care will be paid with TAXES collected by the TREAT of MEN WITH GUNS.
If it takes MEN WITH GUN to pay for your Health Care, how is that FREEDOM?
You are giving up your FREEDOM for Health Care. It's Tyranny.
16 AnswersPolitics1 decade agoHouse Health Care Reform Bill: What does, "...and for other purposes." mean?
I just opened the 1990 page House bill revealed yesterday by Pelosi.
Here's a link... http://www.graction21.com/gf/21804224-House-HCR-Bi...
After the gratuitous introduction of house responsible for this mess, the very first line of the bill read as quoted below:
"A BILL
To provide affordable, quality health care for all Americans
and reduce the growth in health care spending, and
for other purposes."
"...and for other purposes."????
Are you kidding me? Who knows how many countless lawyers worked on this bill and the very first line that addresses the purpose of the bill included the phrase, "...and for other purposes?"
Never mind what other purposes an Health Care Reform Bill is suppose to serve, but this is the best wording a group of lawyers could agree on for the first line of a 1990 page law?
What other purposes are there for the bill? The "Tax you into oblivion" purpose. The "Interview you and advise you to just die" purpose?
The very first line is a bad joke.
5 AnswersPolitics1 decade agoIs it clear to Obama that Russia, China and Iran are not our friends?
Just wondering if Obama has received the hint yet.
20 AnswersPolitics1 decade agoWas there any question Obama wanted to do this?
So the citizen are against giving illegal aliens health care. So now we have to legalize them.
1 AnswerPolitics1 decade agoWanna see Fascism at work?
This is Fascism. I would like for any Liberal, Progressive, Communist, Socialist or Democrat point out where in the Constitution the Federal Government has the power to do this.
Then explain to me how this is NOT Fascism.
"NEW YORK (AFP) - The Federal Reserve would be required to approve salaries for tens of thousands of US bank workers, as part of a plan to curb risk-taking at financial institutions, The Wall Street Journal reported Friday.
"The Fed's plan would, for the first time, inject government regulators deep into compensation decisions traditionally reserved for the banks' corporate boards and executives," the report said.
The proposal would see the Fed empowered to ban any compensation policies it believes encourage bank employees -- from chief executives, to traders, to loan officers -- to take too much risk.
"Bureaucrats wouldn't set the pay of individuals, but would review and, if necessary, amend each bank's salary and bonus policies to make sure they don't create harmful incentives," the report added."
6 AnswersPolitics1 decade agoIf health care is such an important issue now. Why wait until 2013 for the new reform to go into effect?
We are told health care is in dire need of reform. It has to be fixed and has to be fixed NOW or we are all screwed.
Yet, the democrats plans to fix the broken system will not go into effect until 2013 even if it were passed tonight. Why?
Could it be that 2013 is after the next presidential election and enacting health care reform before then would insure Obama's defeat in the 2012 election cycle?
Anyone find this odd? Kind of like the Stimulus Bill. Had to be done today. But only 6% of the $786 Billion will be spent this year. Most of it will not be spent until in 2010 and more in 2011/12. Election years.
Feeling duped yet?
11 AnswersPolitics1 decade agoAre you outrages that the government is try to pass a law to take control over the internet?
Yes, that's right. The internet. THe one place giving you the ultimate in freedom of speech. And Obama and the democrats what to be able to control it or monitor and shut down private networks, "In case of an emergency."
7 AnswersPolitics1 decade agoWhy is it the Liberals cannot stand the thought of Government listening to their phone calls, but?
Have no concerns about a government appointing a "Commissioner" to oversee your personal health care needs?
How is it that Liberals believe there will not be rationing of health care? How do they not understand that this would be the single greatest threat to their liberty in US history?
16 AnswersPolitics1 decade agoIs our President a Pervert?
Looking at a 16 year old girl's rear end? Really? In front of the entire world media with cameras. What a perv... He couldn't control himself for one minute while the little girl walked by?
This is embarrassing.

36 AnswersPolitics1 decade agoI help pay her salary. Would I have to call her Senator?
This is what is wrong with US politics. These people see themselves as more than what they are. What are they?
A Single Citizen elected to represent thousands of Citizens that pay her salary to represent them. She no more important than the Citizens that elected her. And yet, she certainly feels she is.
9 AnswersPolitics1 decade agoHow many Libs does it take to make a turtle crossing?
Who could say, but Obama feels a turtle crossing is exactly what this country needs to get this country moving again.
$3.4 MILLION for a turtle/wild life crossing in Florida.
Its unbelievable what the bucket of #$@%^@ called the Obama Stimulus Package has in it. AND NOT A SINGLE NEW JOB TO SHOW FOR IT.
http://apnews.myway.com/article/20090616/D98RI8302...
I wonder if the turtles will be smart enough to know to use their new under pass?
6 AnswersPolitics1 decade agoNow that Biden has acknowledged it as a failure?
Can we now agree that Conservatives were correct and the Stimulus Bill was a pile of crap? We knew it wasn't going to work and now Biden has admitted as much.
10 AnswersPolitics1 decade agoHey, did you know, Americans trust Republicans more than Democrats on economic issues?
Why are we not hearing about this in the media? THe only place I can find this story is on right leaning web sites. Funny how the media jams every positive Obama/Democrat poll down our throats until this one...
45% trust Republicans more to make the right decisions on Economic issue. While only 39% think Democrats know what they are doing.
That a huge swing in public opinion. I think the polish has been washed off the Democrat turd.
6 AnswersPolitics1 decade agoWhy is it okay for the President to?
talk about his Muslin roots? During the campaign a Republican would have caught the wrath of media bias had he mentioned Obama and Muslim in the same sentence.
McCain went so far as to tell his staff to never bring it up.
Yet, now that we have elected this trojan horse, it's fine for the President to talk about freely.
