Sioux Choof : For that statement to say that 'Rev. Monn is not the 2nd coming' is a little naieve on your account. You can't take every thing as truth as YOU see it then proclaim to others that it is. What you reguard as truth can, to some, be a lie or just misleading which you have been or just becoming a spokesman for such retoric. Everyone has their own course and does not need another christain to belittle others who don't believe in what you call truth. Since the bilble has been translated a good 40 times as well as interpreted another 1000 times it would be misleading to say what you call truth, is. .... thank you for you attention

Japanese army lossed it after the war. The posession can be viewed as a victory trophy since they were at war with each other. The Japanese army did occupy into Russia during that time. In addition, the Japanese army didn't think twice of the occupancy of Korea and of the brutality it did to the innocents. So, without further adue, Japan would have to wait for another 10 years or so. Good luck !!

NO !! He hasn't done anything to deserve it. He's caused a turbulence of troubles in the US and will do the same to the rest of the world. He is on the top of HIS world only. That's it.

I voted no. Japan attacked Russia, they should understand the consequences. Japan should appoligize extensively for the next 50 years. Even though it happened over 50 years ago, it will take another 50 to gain confidence from them and others. Hopefully China will change on the way.

What does it matter? What is more important to me is how are we going to stop tyranny around the world? This is why people are starving.
Save the hungry and leave his wife at home. Some thug tries to control the masses all the while living it up in a white mansion in wash DC. Arrogance has once again reached a new low.
All of the men and women in congress must be forced to pay taxes on their nine different homes like everybody else. Isn't ALL the American Congress in the top 10% of wealth?

So, it's OK for NK to shoot a missle over Japan huh? Dosen't Japan has the right to defend itself? If Japan were to launch a missle over NK for 'testing purposes' then what ?? If NK shoots it down, will Japan call that an 'act of war' ?
The leaders of NK are so stupid. Japan must stand its ground. Anything that even threatens Japan, then they must shoot it down. NK cannot bully anyone just to get attention.

I agree with telecasterplayer. The schemer is one who hates you and coerces management of your, so-called, bad habits. He/she will be sure you and others like you are out of the way while their brown nose starts to smell.

No - denial should not be a crime. It would be like saying the world is round not flat and being burned on a stake for going against the church. However, if you deny that the mass organized murder ever took place, then you might as well as say that Jesus was never born. It’s ridiculous.

Weather the whales have feelings or not, Japan eats fish. This is their life and tradition.
It is not for us to interfere into THEIR (Japanese) affairs.
Who is it to say that whales are off limits? Japanese have rights too!

The Palestinians along with the HAMAS should give up the 'GAZA'. They ALL should leave! The war will never be finished until they leave. This way there is no suspicion, no anger, and no depletion of populations. They can go to Syria or Iran. Be done with it!

Why doesn’t Israel recognize Palestine?
After the war, 1946, some of the Israelites decided to go to the home that, they say, God gave to them. Palestine. However, they have been gone for almost 2000 years. They came back to 'their so called home' to find things have changed. The Palestinians had settled in. The Israelites had wedged themselves in someone elses backyard and started to build homes. Arguments flared, fists flew, it was a fight. Islam is wrong, Judea Christians’ are right!
It is compared to someone coming to your house and saying to you, 'we lived here 50 years ago. My fore-fathers built this house 100 years ago .. I want it back .. you move out.'
What would you do? I'll let it go from there.

I voted 'yes' because Muslim extremists are the sole cause and they hide behind their own children and mommies’ skirts to selfishly take other lives. Sick muthurs. They call that brave and justice. Hamas has taken over the Palestinian cause and has destroyed any sign of hope for peace. Not to say the Palestinians had done any different. Allah is not kind to those who kill others. There is no room in Allah’s palace for them. Only satan and the evil angels ****will**** accept them. HEH-HEH-HEH.
Should there be 'an eye for an eye'? The Israelites need to back off, of course. However, 'he who is (without?) with sin will cast the 1st stone'.

I like Fords. For me, Chevys are not good. Ford is good. Dodge is OK. But Toyota is better. Mazda has been riding high because of ford.
Some Union workers are they death of honest Union workers who just want to live a simple life. There are Union employees that retire at 55, receive their full pension, at the same time work at another job. Thus receiving full pay and benefits from both. They own 3 homes, six cars, a boat, a chopper (motorcycle) and travel to Europe 1st class every year on their 2 month paid vacation. Isn't this the American DREAM? Those employees either be cut back or should be dropped all together.
Those auto workers have sucked their industries dry. Lee Iacocca was one of the big dudes allowing this. Like all of us, they need to cut the fat and reduce the waste.

When Rush Limbaugh said McCain must win this if we have to drag him accross the finish line, shows us that Mccain did not have the Reagan spirit. And the results show this.

blackflig - It's a spoonful of surgar. and it will be a pill that is swwet! it will be more like 47% Obama and 49% McCain. and It is the undecided that will save the day. And don't forget, of course, with all the Accorns questionable ballot 'technics' I see Lawsuites. Lots of them !! And with 107 diffrent factions of the Accorn movement, there will be fingerpointing and Lawsuites. Alright, let's hear it for the rightous and the Supreme court. (:^D)
