Japan's opposition to the ship's presence should come as no surprise when one considers the amount of collisions between military and commercial ships in the harbors around Japan.

Huge Metal ship, guarded by countless other smaller ships. You would have to ram it with a supertanker to do any kind…

Moderator: What is the problem? She was still alive when the ambulance brought her to the hospital and she died sometime after arrival.

It's about time the USA decommissioned it's aging fleet of nuclear powered ships and designed more environmentally friendly powered carriers/ships using Green energy like bio-fuels, or a fuel that does not pose a danger to cities within it's proximity.

If you think about it, the child is better off. What kind of life would it have had, with a mother like that?

This is quite simply, a despicable statement. Life, having a chance at life, is always better then death. Always! Who knows how things would have turned out.…

Hard to believe or imagine a 10 year old girl killing herself. Can only ask why. Assuming this was suicide... why did she feel the need to do it. What was she so afraid of, or could she not face, that she would take this step?

I hope they at least gave the standard one-week advance call to let them know they're coming and for the company to hide/burn the files, like they do with Japanese firms and the Yakuza.

Hey now, I have to give this lady credit. She is the politician in charge of promoting families having more kids. Last year when she first came in I thought, yeah great example, 1 kid and she is supposed to promote larger families... Good example. But now she is having…

Folks used to do it all the time without batting an eye until relatively recently and in some countries, they still do. Will you be imposing your cultural timeset morality on them too?

After wrecking the U.S. economy, it now seems the best the Republicans can do is - get this - BLOCK any serious attempts to address the massive problems they themselves caused.

Nope, Republicans made a serious attempt to address the problems. They offered a myriad of alternatives, ones that would…
