  • Why does the Republican Party want a line item budget, when the President cannot get a line item veto?

    It would seem fair to me, that if one expects a concession on one thing, that one gave up a concession on another.

  • Can military judges be dishonorably discharged for dereliction of duty?

    http://www.military.com/daily-news/2013/06/17/judg...

    Military judges have ruled that soldiers and sailors who have been raped, or sexually assaulted, can't be protected against their rapists. It would be unfair to dishonorably discharge a military rapist, because the President said people involved in sexual assault cover-ups should be dishonorably discharged.

    Can, therefore, the judges be dishonorably discharged for not protecting the soldiers, sailors, and airmen/women under their protection?

  • why isn't FOX News telling the whole story on Sandy?

    Exactly how many people are dead/are going to die? When will the cleanup be finished, what will the $$$ cost be, and when will all services be back to normal?

    They're a professional news organization, they're located right there, and therefore they must be shirking their duty!!

    It's been days, and no hard answers.

    They have satellites, helicopters, reporters and writers, don't they?

    Or is it sheer incompetence to get the story out?

    Is it too big for them to handle?

    Where are the reports? When do we get the info? What are they concealing?

    Or is it, perhaps their staff, or maybe the upper management, who are responsible?

    Why doesn't Fox address these questions?

    They must know that people are wondering.

    Why are they running from these questions?

    America has a right to know!

  • Will the GOP ban teleprompters from all future Republican political events?

    As this is obviously a source of great contention, I am dismayed by seeing them being used by Republican political candidates! Be true to your convictions and just ban them! Set an example and lead by that example! Would we not be a better nation if they'd just "practice what they preach?"

  • If Nancy Pelosi had asked "W" to postpone a major speech, would there be any objections?

    Has Speaker Boehner lost all sense of propriety? Imagine the Speaker of the House telling the President to wait on his long anticipated job speech.. because it's scheduled for the day that Congress returns from vacation! Politicians aside, what possibly is more important than jobs right now?

  • McCain a Manchurian Candidate?

    Was McCain brainwashed to run for office and become President while a captive of the communists for all of that time?

    Will they use him to finish off our democracy by activating 'sleeper' commands to control him? Was the original (1962) film like a prophecy, only except not an assassin this time, but to become President?

    Have any psychologists checked for this?
