Why can people admit that Adam Lambert Sucks!?
Why is everyone so surprised that America doesnt vote for people just because they are gay? America is not Hollywood. Adam Lamberts voice is marginal at best. You have to have a good voice to be a good singer.

18 AnswersElections1 decade agoThe corruption in our government is out of control...When does it stop? ?
How many times this year have you heard of a corrupt government OFFICIAL who embezzled millions, or cooked the books so he would get his 10 billion dollar bonus(ie...freddie and fanny) These corrupt officials are raping our country and WE THE PEOPLE stand here and let them. We need to stop fighting over DEM or REP and start putting in politicians that care enough to stop this cycle of raping the system.
And in my opinion there should be no more lobbyist..they are the main cause of corruption..they entice these politicians with money to get them to vote there agenda.....INSTEAD OF WHAT IS BEST FOR OUR PEOPLE !!!

EDITORIAL: Obama is a 'liar' on abortion
If you want to know Barack Obama's real views on abortion, you should meet registered nurse Jill Stanek.
Mrs. Stanek worked at Christ Hospital in Oak Lawn, Illinois from 1993 to 2001. When she worked in the hospital's Labor and Delivery Department she saw that babies who survived abortion attempts were left to die alone in supply rooms. They could linger for as long as eight hours, without medical care, without even the dignity of a warm blanket or a soft touch. Their tiny bodies were then dumped in the trash. Mr. Obama's spiritual mentor served on the board of the hospital. Mrs. Stanek went on a public crusade to protect these children.
At a 2001 Illinois legislature hearing, Mr. Obama questioned Mrs. Stanek. She insisted that children needed medical care if they were born alive. Mr. Obama said: "Ms. Stanek, your initial testimony last year showed your dismay at the lack of regard for human life. I agreed with you last year and we suggested that there be a Comfort Room or something of that nature be done. The hospital acknowledged that and changes were made and you are still unimpressed. It sounds to me like you are really not interested in how these fetus [es] are treated, but rather not providing absolutely any medical care or life to them."
Mrs. Stanek replied: "What the hospital did was try to make things look better. What it really is, is that the baby is still dead."
In committee testimony, Mr. Obama said it was sufficient to give "comfort care" to a baby that is born despite all the efforts to kill it. "Comfort care" means giving the infant a warm blanket and permitting the baby to be held by someone as it dies. This is the most Mr. Obama could find in his heart to provide - a warm blanket for a child grasping for life. Mrs. Stanek told The Washington Times that Mr. Obama showed callousness when he questioned her in committee testimony: His inability to grasp that babies born alive need medical care was disturbing.
Despite all the details Mrs. Stanek provided in her testimony, Mr. Obama voted against the Induced Infant Liability Act in the Illinois legislature in 2002 - a bill that would give legal protection and medical assistance to a baby born from a botched abortion. Mr. Obama stated that he feared the bill could undermine Roe v. Wade. When a similar bill was put to Congress, other lawmakers had better sense and bigger hearts: The Born Alive Infants Protection Act passed the Senate with a vote of 98-0. It was signed into law by President Bush on Aug. 5, 2002. Infants born alive are now recognized as legal persons with full rights.
Mr. Obama even voted against banning partial-birth abortion - a radical procedure - in the Senate, in October, 2007. Since 2005, he has a 100 percent rating on pro-choice votes by NARAL, a leading, national pro-choice organization.
There is no doubt that Mr. Obama wants not only to uphold existing abortion laws, but a more radical view. At an address before Planned Parenthood on July 17, 2007, Mr. Obama said: "The first thing I will do as President is sign the Freedom of Choice Act." He received a standing ovation. FOCA was introduced in Congress in November 1989 by Rep. Don Edwards, California Democrat. The legislation has since been a focal point for staunch pro-choicers. The bill would codify the 1973 Supreme Court decision, Roe v. Wade, into law in all the states. This would overturn state laws that have been passed to limit or delay abortions. Contrary to Mr. Obama's pledges to reduce the number of abortions, he really wants to make them easier to get - while overriding state and federal laws.
Mr. Obama wants to uphold an abortion policy that has a disproportionate impact on blacks. The Alan Guttmacher Institute, a nonprofit organization focused on sexual and reproductive health research, finds that 13 percent of the U.S. population is black, but 37 percent of all abortions are performed on black women and teens: Blacks are 4.8 times as likely

3 AnswersLaw & Ethics1 decade agoLiberals and Conservatives - we both know the answer - why arent we doing it?
The answer to the great debate in America - Liberal vs conservative - is SOOOO simple! America is the greatest country on the earth. The only thing that can change that is EXTREME CHANGE! The answer is to REMAIN IN THE MIDDLE! PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE! If you want the republicans out of the white house fine! Put in a Democrat, but take some Democrats out of the House and Senate. Too much control by any party is EXTREMELY DANGEROUS! AMERICA WE MUST STAY IN THE MIDDLE! The Upper class needs the lower class and the lower class needs the upper class. We have to find a way to live together If the Democrats take total control of our government it will be the same as if we had a dictatorship government and that is EXACTLY what the constitution was created to prevent! Please people spread the word. Move to the center stay in the center KEEP THE BALANCE!
